1. General Information
Protecting your personal data is important to me. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information may be processed when you visit this website, why it may be processed, and how it is handled.
This website is a personal photography portfolio. It does not provide user accounts, contact forms, comments, newsletters, online purchases or other features that intentionally require visitors to submit personal information through the website.

3. Website Hosting
This website is hosted and delivered using services provided by Vercel. When you access the website, technical information may be processed automatically in connection with the delivery, security and reliable operation of the website.
This may include information such as your IP address, browser and device information, operating system, requested pages, access times, technical logs and other information generated through the use of the hosting and delivery infrastructure.
The processing of technical information is carried out to enable the secure and technically functional operation of the website. Where applicable, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, based on my legitimate interest in providing a secure, stable and functional website.
Vercel may use cloud infrastructure, content delivery, security and other service providers in connection with its services. Further information about Vercel's privacy practices is available in Vercel's Privacy Notice.
4. Recipients and Service Providers
Personal data processed through the technical operation of this website may be accessible to service providers involved in hosting, infrastructure, content delivery, security and related technical services.
In particular, this website uses Vercel as its hosting and deployment provider. Vercel may use additional infrastructure and service providers as described in its Privacy Notice and, where applicable, its Data Processing Addendum.
Personal data is not sold through this website and is not intentionally shared with third parties for advertising or profiling purposes.
5. International Data Transfers
Because this website uses Vercel's global infrastructure, technical information processed in connection with the website may be stored, processed or transmitted in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including the United States.
Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, the applicable data protection requirements and appropriate safeguards are used in accordance with applicable law. Vercel describes the international transfer mechanisms it uses in its Privacy Notice and Data Processing Addendum.
6. Fonts
This website uses fonts provided through Next.js. The fonts are served locally as part of the website and no connection to Google Fonts servers is established solely for loading these fonts.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
This website does not intentionally use cookies or similar technologies for analytics, advertising, behavioural profiling or user tracking.
Where technically necessary information is stored on or accessed from your device for the purpose of transmitting communications or providing a service you have explicitly requested, such processing may take place without consent where permitted by applicable law.
8. External Links
This website contains links to external services, including Instagram and other third-party websites.
When you follow an external link, you leave this website and the privacy practices of the respective third-party provider apply. I am not responsible for the privacy practices or content of external websites.
9. Email Communication
If you contact me using the email address or email link provided on this website, your message will be sent using your own email application or email service.
The website itself does not provide a contact form and does not intentionally store messages submitted by email. Any personal information contained in an email is processed for the purpose of responding to your request and handling the communication.
Where necessary, the processing of such information is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, where I have a legitimate interest in responding to communications, or on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where the communication relates to steps taken at your request prior to entering into a contract.
10. Analytics and Tracking
This website currently does not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, advertising networks, behavioural tracking services or other third-party visitor analytics tools.
No personal data is intentionally collected through the website for the purpose of building advertising profiles or tracking visitors across websites.
11. Retention of Personal Data
Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or to comply with applicable legal obligations.
Technical information generated through the operation of the website may be retained by the hosting and infrastructure providers for periods determined by their operational, security and legal requirements.
Where there is no longer a legitimate or legal reason to retain personal data, it will be deleted or otherwise handled in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.

13. Right to Lodge a Complaint
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data violates applicable data protection law.
