What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site’s blog, we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

E-Mail Newsletter

We use E-Mail Newsletter services by Mailchimp. When you signup to the newsletter, Mailchimp will receive your email address in order to send you the email newsletter. MailChimp has certified to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework, and we have a data-processing agreement with them. More information is available on their site.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

We embed code from the following websites:

Webserver logfiles

Our web host is domainfactory. They keep webserver logfiles for us, which help with debugging faulty programming on our website and produce anonymized website usage statistics. The logfiles include your IP address. All data is deleted automatically after 90 days.

Who we share your data with

When you leave a comment on the blog, it is visible to the world. Otherwise we don’t share your data with anyone.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

All other data is usually retained 10 years, pertaining to German business laws.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us.

You can also request that we erase, correct or restrict any personal data we hold about you. We may be legally obliged to keep some data.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

If you send us an email enquiring about a project or a collaboration, we may use Trello and Slack to process your communication. Both of them transfer data outside of the EU, and  commit to appropriate data transfer mechanisms as required by GDPR. This includes Privacy Shield certification. Trello and GDPR – Our Commitment to Data Privacyand Slack und die DSGVO have more information about their data use and protective measures.

Regulatory body / complaints

If you feel the need to complain about our data protection to someone who is not us, Der Berliner Beauftragte für den Datenschutz is there for you.
