Privacy Policy:

1) Introduction and Contact Details of the Data Controller
1.1 We are pleased that you are visiting our website and thank you for your interest. Below, we inform you about how we handle your personal data when you use our website. Personal data includes all information that can personally identify you.
1.2 The data controller responsible for processing personal data on this website within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is Daniel Brachtvogel, Am Röhrbach 277, 33335 Gütersloh, Germany, Tel.: +49 175 4749397, Email: info@donob.de. The data controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data.

2) Data Collection When Visiting Our Website
2.1 When you use our website purely for informational purposes – without registering or actively providing us with information – we only collect the data that your browser automatically transmits to our server (so-called “server log files”). This data is technically necessary to properly display the website. This includes:
-The page of our website you visited
-Date and time of your access
-The amount of data transferred in bytes
-The source or reference from which you reached the page
-The browser you are using
-The operating system you are using
-Your IP address (possibly in anonymized form)
This data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, as it serves our legitimate interest in ensuring the stability and functionality of our website. This data is neither passed on nor used in any other way. However, we reserve the right to retrospectively review server log files if there are specific indications of unlawful use.
2.2 To protect your data and ensure the secure transmission of confidential content (such as orders or inquiries), we use SSL or TLS encryption on this website. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the address line of your browser changing to “https://” and the lock icon appearing in your browser bar.

3) Hosting & Content Delivery Network
To provide our website securely and reliably, we collaborate with a hosting provider. The data collected during your visit to our website is processed on servers located within the European Union—either directly by the provider or by carefully selected subcontractors.
To ensure your data is optimally protected, we have concluded a data processing agreement with our hosting partner. This contract guarantees that your data is handled confidentially and is not unlawfully disclosed to third parties.

4) Cookies
To make your visit to our website as pleasant as possible and to provide certain functions, we use cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Some of these cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser (so-called “session cookies”). Others remain stored on your device for a certain period to save your settings and preferences for future visits (so-called “persistent cookies”). You can find the exact storage duration in your browser’s cookie settings.
If personal data is processed through individual cookies, this processing is carried out either for the performance of a contract in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, or to safeguard our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR—for example, to ensure the optimal functionality of the website and a user-friendly design of your visit.
You have the option to configure your browser settings so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and can decide individually whether to accept them, block certain types of cookies, or disable them entirely. Please note that disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our website.

5) Cookie Consent Tool
To protect your privacy and give you control over your data, we use a “Cookie Consent Tool” on this website. This tool appears as an interactive interface during your first visit, allowing you to decide which cookies and cookie-based applications may be activated. Cookies and services that require consent will only be activated if you agree by checking the corresponding box. This ensures that such cookies are stored on your device only with your explicit consent.
The consent tool itself uses technically necessary cookies to save your selection. Generally, no personal data is processed in this context. However, if personal data (such as your IP address) is processed to store, assign, or log your cookie settings, this processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. This serves our legitimate interest in providing a legally compliant, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management system.
Furthermore, the processing is also based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR, as we are legally required as the website operator to obtain your consent for the use of non-essential cookies.
To ensure the protection of your data, we have—if necessary—entered into a data processing agreement with the provider of the Cookie Consent Tool. This contract ensures that your data is handled securely and is not unlawfully disclosed to third parties.
For more information about the provider of the Cookie Consent Tool and the available settings, please refer to the user interface on our website.

6) Your Rights
You have the right to access the personal data we store about you at any time (Art. 15 GDPR), to correct incorrect data (Art. 16 GDPR), or to request the deletion of your data (Art. 17 GDPR), provided that no legal retention obligations prevent this. You also have the right to object to the processing of your data (Art. 21 GDPR).

7) Data Retention Period
We store personal data only for as long as it is necessary for the respective purpose or as required by legal regulations. Data collected through cookies is automatically deleted after the respective storage period has expired.
