Preamble

In today’s times, security and privacy are essential aspects of how we use online services, and as such, practices related to these aspects shall be handled as transparently as possible towards users of any online service. Therefore, this privacy policy is intended to outline the types of personal data collected by this service, who your personal data is processed by and your rights concerning any processing of your personal data.

Recipient of personal data

The following provider is used to make this service available:

GitHub Inc.

This is the recipient of your personal data. Not having to maintain server infrastructure on my premises constitutes a legitimate interest in accordance with Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. The servers of GitHub Inc. are located in the United States of America.

For more information on how to object to the processing of your personal data or to have any previously processed personal data removed through GitHub Inc., see: https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/site-policy/github-privacy-statement#github-pages

I do not have direct access to this data, but only receive an anonymous, statistical summary. This includes the frequency of each page viewed and the number of unique visitors. I do not scrape, aggregate with any other data or otherwise process this data in any way. No other means of tracking through external analytics providers of any kind are implemented.

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data, the right to inquire about any personal data being processed as well as the right to erasure, also known as the right to be forgotten. Whether the objection is successful must be determined individually within the boundaries of a weighing of interests.

Any personal data will be deleted as soon as the purpose of its processing no longer applies.
