Data protection
As the operator of this website, I attach great importance to the protection of your personal data. I treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data I collect and what I use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to guarantee complete protection of data against access by third parties.
Information on the data controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:
Rupert Frick
Translator (Diplom-Übersetzer)
Bodanweg 24
88662 Überlingen
Germany
Telephone: +49 (0) 7551 308360
Email: r.frick[at]rupertfrick.de
The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).
Retention period
Unless a more specific retention period is stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with me until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you submit a valid request for erasure or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be erased unless I have other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law). In the latter case, erasure will take place once these grounds no longer apply.
General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website
Where you have consented to the processing of your data, I process your personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR, where special categories of data as defined in Article 9(1) of the GDPR are processed. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Article 49(1)(a) of the GDPR). Where you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information on your device (e.g. via device fingerprinting), data processing is additionally carried out on the basis of Section 25(1) of the German Telecommunications, Digital Services and Data Protection Act (TDDDG). Consent may be withdrawn at any time. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, I process your data on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. Furthermore, I process your data where this is necessary to comply with a legal obligation on the basis of Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR. Data processing may also take place on the basis of my legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The relevant legal bases in each individual case are set out in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.
Recipients of personal data
As part of my business activities, I work with various external parties. In some cases, this requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. I only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if I am legally obliged to do so (e.g. disclosure of data to tax authorities), if I have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of data. When using data processors, I only pass on my customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.
Withdrawal of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw any consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to object to data collection in specific cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
Where data processing is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The specific legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, I will no longer process your personal data in question, unless I can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (objection under Article 21(1) of the GDPR).
If your personal data is processed for the purposes of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purposes of such marketing. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for the purposes of direct marketing (objection under Article 21(2) of the GDPR).
Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to data portability
You have the right to have data – that I process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract – provided to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only take place to the extent that it is technically feasible.
Access, rectification and erasure
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to receive, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, where applicable, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. You may contact me at any time regarding this matter or any further questions on personal data.
Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact me at any time regarding this. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
– If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by me, I usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
– If the processing of your personal data has been or is being carried out unlawfully, you may request that the processing of your personal data be restricted instead of it being erased.
– If I no longer require your personal data, but you require it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its erasure.
– If you have lodged an objection under Article 21(1) of the GDPR, a balancing of interests between yours and mine must be carried out. Until it is determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data – apart from its storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
Objection to promotional emails
The use of contact details published in accordance with the legal notice requirement for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information material is hereby objected to. As the operator of this website, I expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example via spam emails.

Cookies
My website does not use cookies.
Email or telephone enquiries
If you contact me by email or telephone, your enquiry, including all personal data contained therein (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed by me for the purpose of handling your request. I will not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, provided that your enquiry relates to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on my legitimate interest in the effective handling of enquiries addressed to me (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR) where this has been requested. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
The data you send to me via contact enquiries will remain with me until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. once your enquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
