Privacy policy
This English version is a courtesy translation. The German version is legally binding.
This site does not count you, sets no cookies for recognition or advertising, and passes nothing on to advertising networks. The only exception is a small cookie for your language choice when you click DE or EN at the top. Data arises when you open the site and when you register for an event. There is also a video from YouTube that is only loaded after your click, and a few links to third-party services.

When you just look at the site
When you open the site, your browser transmits technical information to the server: IP address, time, the address called up, browser type and operating system. Without this information no page can be delivered to you. It ends up in the logs of the hosting provider and is deleted there after a short time. I do not look at it and do not evaluate it.
The legal basis is my legitimate interest in the technical operation of the site, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Hosting: Vercel Inc., 440 N Barranca Ave #4133, Covina, CA 91723, USA. The site is delivered from data centres in the EU. A data processing agreement exists with Vercel.
Fonts: The fonts are stored on the same server as the site. There is no connection to Google Fonts or any other third-party provider.
Language choice: The site is available in German and in English. When you click DE or EN at the top, your browser stores your choice for one year in a small cookie called "sprache", so that the home page appears in this language on your next visit. It contains only "de" or "en", does not recognise you, and is only set when you click yourself. It is technically necessary for this function (§ 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG), and the further processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. You can delete the cookie in your browser at any time.
When you register for an event
In the registration form you enter: name, email address, chosen room, your organisation contribution, details about diet and travel and, if you like, a question. The phone number is optional.
What for: So that I can process your registration and reply to you personally. A registration is only binding once I have confirmed it to you.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, taking steps prior to entering into a contract at your request.
Details about health: Some details can reveal something about your health, for example about diet, intolerances, restrictions or medication, including when you write them in the free-text field. They are voluntary. If you provide them, I process them only to look after you well on the trip. The legal basis is your express consent, Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, which you give by ticking the box in the form. You can withdraw it at any time with effect for the future, a message to me is enough.
Where the data is kept: Your registration arrives as an email in my mailbox. There is no separate database for it.
The two confirmation emails are sent via Resend, provider Resend Inc., 2261 Market Street, San Francisco, CA 94114, USA. Your email address and the details from the form are transmitted. The basis for the transfer to the USA is the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses.
How long: Until the event and afterwards for as long as tax and commercial retention periods require. If no participation takes place, I delete the registration after twelve months at the latest.
No newsletter: Your address does not go into any mailing list. I write to you only about your registration.
Video from YouTube
On the page "Social topics" there is an explainer video from YouTube. When you open the page, nothing is loaded from YouTube. Only when you click "Load and play video" does your page embed the player from youtube-nocookie.com. This establishes a connection to YouTube's servers, your IP address and details about your browser are transmitted, and YouTube can analyse your behaviour. Even the privacy-enhanced mode cannot prevent this entirely.
The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. The legal basis is your consent by clicking, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Data may be transferred to the USA in the process. More in Google's privacy policy.
I also link my YouTube channel. This is an ordinary link: a connection to YouTube is only made once you click it.
Booking appointments via Cal.com
For the introductory call I link my calendar at Cal.com (cal.eu). This is an ordinary link. Only when you click it and book an appointment there do you give the provider your name, your email address and your preferred appointment. Cal.com's privacy policy applies. As long as you don't click, nothing is transmitted.
Telegram and WhatsApp
On some pages there are links to my Telegram channel and my WhatsApp channel. These are ordinary links. Only when you click one of them and open the app is a connection made to it, and from then on the privacy policy of the respective provider applies. As long as you don't click, nothing is transmitted.
Telegram: When you join, depending on your Telegram settings I can see your name. The provider is Telegram Messenger Inc., Dubai.
WhatsApp: The link leads to the announcement channel of my WhatsApp community. Only I write there. The member list of this channel is hidden from the other members, as administrator I see your phone number and your profile name. The provider for users in Europe is WhatsApp Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, Ireland, a company of Meta. If you would rather not give me your number, use Telegram.
When you call or write to me
Then I process what you tell me in order to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR. I delete the message once it has been dealt with and no retention period stands in the way.
Your rights
You can at any time ask for information about what data I have about you, and you can have it corrected or deleted. You can have the processing restricted, receive your data in a portable format and object to the processing insofar as it is based on a legitimate interest.
A message to weiss@relax-gutes-leben.com or a call to 0160 99446468 is enough.
You can also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. The competent authority is the Hessian Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information, Postfach 3163, 65021 Wiesbaden, Germany.
Changes
If the site changes, this statement changes too. The version that is shown here always applies.
