Privacy Policy

1. Controller

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

Jörg Weller
Blumenstraße 4
76889 Barbelroth
Germany
Email: kontakt@jolavell.com

2. General information on data processing

In principle, we process the personal data of our visitors only insofar as this is necessary to provide a functional website and our content, or where you have given your consent. This website uses no cookies and no analytics or tracking services.

3. Hosting and server log files

This website is operated on servers within the European Union. When the website is accessed, the web server automatically processes information transmitted by your browser (server log files):

Processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the technical provision, stability and security of the website. The log data is not merged with other data sources and is automatically deleted after a short period.

4. Newsletter

You can subscribe to our newsletter on this website. For this purpose we process your email address. Delivery is handled by self-hosted newsletter software (listmonk) on our own servers in the EU — your email address is not passed on to external newsletter service providers.

Subscription uses the double opt-in procedure: after signing up you receive an email with a confirmation link. Only after confirmation is your address added to the mailing list. The time of sign-up and of confirmation are logged in order to be able to demonstrate consent.

The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time — via the unsubscribe link in every newsletter email or by message to the email address given above. After unsubscribing, your email address is deleted from the mailing list.

5. Third-party content

Google Fonts

This website loads fonts from Google Fonts (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). When the page is accessed, your browser establishes a connection to Google servers; in doing so, your IP address is transmitted to Google, possibly also to servers in the USA. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (consistent, performant presentation of the website). Further information: policies.google.com/privacy.

unpkg (CDN for script libraries)

To display animations, this website loads JavaScript libraries via the content delivery network unpkg.com (operated via Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). In doing so, your IP address is transmitted to the CDN. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (secure and fast delivery of technically necessary scripts). Further information: cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.

Amazon book covers and Amazon links

The book covers in the “On Amazon" section are loaded directly from servers of Amazon Europe Core S.à r.l. (38 avenue John F. Kennedy, L-1855 Luxembourg). In doing so, your IP address is transmitted to Amazon. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (presentation of the current book editions). When you click a purchase link you leave this website; the privacy policy of Amazon then applies: amazon.de/privacy.

6. SSL/TLS encryption

For security reasons, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. Data that you transmit to us (e.g. the newsletter sign-up) cannot be read by third parties. You can recognise the encrypted connection by the “https://" in the address bar.

7. Your rights

You have the following rights regarding your personal data:

To exercise your rights, an informal email to kontakt@jolavell.com is sufficient.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The competent authority is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of Rhineland-Palatinate, datenschutz.rlp.de.
