Privacy policy

This is a convenience translation. The German version is the legally binding one.

This policy informs visitors to elterngeldtrick.info about the nature, scope and purpose of the processing of personal data. Personal data means any data by which you can be personally identified, such as name, address, email address or IP address.

Processing takes place in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG).

1. Controller

Manuel Forche Elterngeldtrick.info Bodelschwinghstr. 98, 41751 Viersen, Germany Phone: +49 2162 5472810 Email: kontakt@elterngeldtrick.info

No data protection officer has been appointed, as the conditions of § 38 BDSG are not met. For data protection matters, please use the email address above.

2. Server log files

When you access the website, data transmitted by your browser is stored automatically: IP address, date and time of access, browser type and version, operating system, referrer URL and requested file. This data serves the security and functionality of the website and is not merged with other data sources.

Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in system stability and security). Retention: up to 7 days, then deleted.

3. Hosting

The website is hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, owner René Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany. The servers are located exclusively in Germany.

Through the use of hosting, personal data such as IP addresses from server log files and form data are transmitted to the provider in order to deliver the website and repel attacks.

Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Processing agreement: a data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR is in place. More information: all-inkl.com/datenschutzinformationen (German only)

4. Cookies

This website uses only technically necessary cookies required to operate the site. No tracking, analytics or marketing cookies are used. Consent under § 25 TDDDG is therefore not required.

5. Contacting us

If you send an email or call, the details you provide – usually name, email address, possibly telephone number and the content of your enquiry – are processed solely to handle that enquiry.

Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR for enquiries in the context of pre-contractual measures, otherwise Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Retention: until the matter is concluded, then deleted, unless statutory retention obligations apply (for invoices up to 10 years under § 147 AO).

6. Buying the eBook via Digistore24

The purchase button on this website leads to an order page operated by Digistore24 GmbH, St.-Godehard-Straße 32, 31139 Hildesheim, Germany. Simply visiting this website transmits no data to Digistore24 – it is a plain link, not an embedded element. Data is only transmitted once you click the purchase button and are taken to the Digistore24 page.

Digistore24 acts as a reseller: your contractual partner for the purchase of the eBook is Digistore24, not Elterngeldtrick.info. On the Digistore24 order page, the data required for the purchase is collected (including name, address, email address, payment details) and processed there under Digistore24's privacy policy. After the purchase, I receive the data required for fulfilling the contract, customer support and accounting from Digistore24.

Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (performance of the purchase contract). More information: digistore24.com/page/privacy

7. Fonts

The fonts used on this website are loaded locally from this server. There is no connection to servers operated by Google or other providers, and no IP addresses are transmitted to third parties.

8. External links

This website links to external offerings, including the Digistore24 order page. Clicking a link takes you away from this website; the operator of the target page is responsible for data processing there. No social media plugins that transmit data on page load are embedded.

9. Your rights

Under Art. 15 to 22 GDPR you have the right to information about the data stored about you, to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing, to object to processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent with effect for the future.

Please contact kontakt@elterngeldtrick.info. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority; for North Rhine-Westphalia this is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information NRW, ldi.nrw.de.

10. Security

The website is delivered exclusively over encrypted HTTPS (SSL/TLS). You can recognise this by the padlock symbol in your browser's address bar.

11. Changes

This privacy policy will be updated if the legal situation or the services used change. The version published on this page applies.
