5. Fonts

This website uses the “Roboto” and “Roboto Mono” fonts. Both are served directly from this website's own server and rendered locally in your browser. No data is transmitted to Google Fonts or any other third-party provider.

6. Maps (Google Maps)

The contact section of this website contains a reference (link) to Google Maps. Simply clicking the link does not transmit any data to Google beyond what occurs when visiting any other website.

If a Maps view is embedded: A two-click solution or consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR will be obtained.

7. Cookies and consent mechanism

This website uses no tracking or marketing cookies. To store your cookie banner decision, an entry is created in the browser's local storage (localStorage) under the key it42-cookie-consent. This is technically necessary within the meaning of § 25 (2) no. 2 of the German Telecommunications-Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG) and does not contain any personally identifying information — the entry stores only your choice ("accepted" or "declined") with a timestamp. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in documenting consent).

External content (e.g. embedded maps) that would trigger further data processing is loaded only after your explicit consent via the cookie banner. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer.

8. Your rights as a data subject

Right to access (Art. 15 GDPR)

Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
Right to object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)

The competent supervisory authority is the Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (HmbBfDI), Ludwig-Erhard-Str. 22, 20459 Hamburg, Germany.

9. Withdrawal of consent

If the processing of your personal data is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. The lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of consent prior to withdrawal remains unaffected.
