6. Fonts

This website uses the fonts "Amaranth" and "Inter" from Google Fonts, as well as the font "Cirka". The fonts are downloaded during the build process and hosted locally on the server (self-hosting). No connection to Google servers is made when you visit this website.

This website does not use any analytics or tracking tools such as Google Analytics.

9. Right to Withdraw Consent

If the processing of your personal data is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time (Art. 7(3) GDPR). The withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out until that point.

Note: This website currently processes your data exclusively on the basis of legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) and not on the basis of consent. Should consent-based processing be introduced in the future, you will be informed accordingly and can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future.

10. Obligation to Provide Data

There is no legal or contractual obligation to provide personal data. However, the transmission of certain technical data (such as your IP address) is technically necessary to access and use this website.

Without the automatic collection of this data, accessing the website would not be technically possible. Failure to provide data has no further legal consequences for you.
