This privacy policy describes which personal data is processed when using pacerechner.de, for what purpose and on what legal basis — limited to what actually happens on this website.

1. Controller

The controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:

Peer Hoffmann Mozartstr. 4 32545 Bad Oeynhausen Germany

Phone: +49 (0) 5731 4960242 E-Mail: info@pacerechner.de

2. Visiting the website

When you visit this website, our hosting server processes the data technically transmitted by your browser (including your IP address, the time of the request, and the page requested) in order to deliver the website to your browser. This processing is purely technical in nature and required for the duration of the request; it is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in the technical operation of the website).

We do not keep an access log in which this data could be stored and evaluated after the page has been delivered. An IP address is only stored on a lasting basis in the case described in section 5 (signing in to a user account).

3. Cookies and local storage

This website uses a single technically necessary cookie: a session cookie that is set when signing in to a user account (see section 5). Without this cookie, signing in is not possible; since it serves exclusively to provide a service expressly requested by the user, no consent is required for it under Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

In addition, this website stores in your browser’s local storage (localStorage, not a cookie) whether you have unlocked external Amazon product images (see section 7). This information never leaves your browser and is not transmitted to us.

Once advertising is embedded on this website, further cookies or comparable storage mechanisms of the Google Consent Management Platform, described in section 6, will be added.

You can prevent cookies from being stored at any time via your browser settings, or delete cookies already stored. This may limit the usability of individual functions (in particular signing in).

4. Contact and feedback form

You can use the feedback form on this website to send us comments, bug reports, or suggestions for improvement. In doing so, your name, e-mail address, and message are transmitted to us by e-mail and processed there to handle your request.

The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to user enquiries) or, where the contact serves to initiate or fulfil a contractual relationship, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. The data is deleted once it is no longer required to process the enquiry, at the latest once communication has concluded, unless statutory retention obligations require otherwise. The data is not passed on to third parties.

5. User account and sign-in

This website offers the option of creating a user account. During registration, we collect your name, e-mail address, and a password; the password is stored exclusively in hashed, non-reversible form. To confirm your e-mail address and to reset your password, we automatically send e-mails containing a confirmation link; an e-mail delivery service provider may be used as a processor for this purpose.

After successfully signing in, the website sets the session cookie described in section 3, containing a unique session identifier. For each session, your IP address and the identifier transmitted by your browser (user agent) are additionally stored to detect misuse and ensure session security.

Alternatively, you can sign in with an existing account at 321run.com (“shared sign-in”). In this case, 321run.com, as the identity provider, transmits your name and e-mail address to this website; if an e-mail+password account with the same e-mail address, verified at 321run.com, already exists, it is automatically linked to the 321run account instead of creating a second account.

The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (provision of the user account you requested). The data is stored for as long as the user account exists and is removed after its deletion, unless statutory retention obligations require otherwise. This data is not passed on to third parties other than the processors named and the identity provider 321run.com.

Once advertising (Google AdSense) is embedded on this website, the consent management platform (CMP) “Google Funding Choices” provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”) is used. On first visit, the CMP shows visitors located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland a consent banner, through which consent to advertising-related data processing can be given, refused, or managed individually per provider (IAB Europe Transparency & Consent Framework).

To provide this function, the CMP stores technical information in your browser — in particular the choice made, a timestamp, and a randomly generated identifier — and transmits it to Google. This technical management of consent itself is based on Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR (fulfilment of our legal obligations regarding information and evidence of consent); the advertising-related data processing selected in the banner is itself based on the consent given there (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). The choice made can be changed or withdrawn at any time via the “Privacy settings” link in the footer of this website.

This may involve data being transferred to Google’s servers outside the EU/EEA; Google states that this is safeguarded via the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses.

On the equipment pages of this website, we embed product images from Amazon (Amazon Europe Core S.à r.l., 38 avenue John F. Kennedy, L-1855 Luxembourg, “Amazon”), which are retrieved directly from the Amazon Associates Programme’s server. To prevent a connection to Amazon’s servers being established already when an equipment page is opened — without prior consent — transmitting your IP address and further technical data (e.g. browser type, operating system) to Amazon, these images are blocked by default. Only once you actively click the displayed placeholder, or consent to data processing by Amazon in the consent banner described in section 6, is the connection established and the image loaded; this consent then applies to all product images on the website and is stored in your browser for this purpose (see section 3). The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). Without this consent, the placeholders remain without an image being loaded indefinitely; the product title, price, and purchase link are not affected by this.

Independently of the product images, the purchase links shown on the equipment pages point to amazon.de and are marked as affiliate links of the Amazon Associates Programme. We receive a commission if a purchase is made via such a link. Clicking such a link leaves this website; the further processing of data is then subject to Amazon’s privacy policy.

8. Your rights as a data subject

As a data subject, you have the following rights under the GDPR:

To exercise these rights, an informal message to the contact details given in section 1 is sufficient.

9. No profiling, no automated decision-making

We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR.

10. Changes to this privacy policy

We update this privacy policy whenever the data processing actually taking place on this website changes (e.g. when new services are integrated). The version current at the time of your visit applies.
