Privacy Policy

Last updated: 25 September 2026

1. Controller

The controller responsible for processing personal data on this website is:

[Full legal name]
[Street and house number]
[Postal code and city]
Germany

2. Hosting and delivery of the website

This website is hosted using Cloudflare Pages, a service provided by Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, California 94107, United States, together with its affiliated companies.

When you access this website, Cloudflare processes technical connection data required to deliver and protect the website. This data may include:

your IP address;
the date and time of the request;
the requested page or file;
the HTTP method and response status;
the referring website;
browser and operating-system information; and
technical network and protocol information.

The processing is necessary to provide the website reliably, prevent misuse, defend against attacks and diagnose technical problems. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interests are the secure, reliable and efficient operation of this website.

The website application does not create its own visitor profiles or maintain a separate database of access logs. Cloudflare may retain technical data in accordance with its contractual terms and retention policies for as long as necessary to provide and protect its services.

Cloudflare operates a global network. Data may therefore be processed in the United States or other countries outside the European Union and the European Economic Area. Cloudflare states that it uses appropriate safeguards for international data transfers, including the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses and, where applicable, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

Further information is available in Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy and its GDPR information.

3. Analytics, advertising and profiling

This website does not use analytics services, advertising networks or personalised advertising.

Cloudflare Web Analytics is not enabled.

4. Cookies and local browser storage

This website does not set cookies.

Theme preference

When you use the theme switcher, your selected colour theme is stored locally in your browser under the key network-exchange-theme. The stored value is either light or dark.

This information is used solely to restore the theme you explicitly selected when you return to the website. It remains on your device and is not transmitted to us. You can remove it at any time by deleting this website’s stored data in your browser settings.

5. RSS feed

The website provides an RSS feed at /rss.xml. It can be accessed without registration.

We do not maintain a list of RSS subscribers and do not receive information about subscriptions made in external feed readers. When the feed is retrieved, Cloudflare processes the same technical connection data described in the hosting section.

If you use a third-party application or online service to subscribe to the feed, that provider processes data under its own responsibility and privacy policy.

6. Contact by email

If you contact us by email, we process the information contained in your message, your email address and any other information you voluntarily provide.

This processing is carried out to respond to your enquiry. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where your enquiry concerns a contract or steps before entering into a contract, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR may also apply.

Messages are deleted when they are no longer required for handling the enquiry, unless statutory retention obligations or the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims require longer storage.

7. External links

This website may contain links to websites operated by third parties. When you follow such a link, the operator of the external website receives technical connection data, including your IP address.

The respective third party is responsible for processing data on its website. Please consult its privacy policy for further information.

8. Your rights

Subject to the applicable legal requirements, you have the right to:

obtain information about your personal data;
request correction of inaccurate data;
request deletion of your data;
request restriction of processing;
receive data you provided in a portable format;
object to processing based on legitimate interests; and
lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

You may exercise your rights by contacting us using the email address stated above.

9. Automated decision-making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR.

10. Changes to this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated if the website, the services used or the applicable legal requirements change. The current version is always available on this page.
