(in accordance with the European General Data Protection Regulation [GDPR] valid from May 25, 2018)
Thank you for your interest in my portfolio. Data protection has a high priority for the management of “QUEER COUNSELLING”. It is generally possible to use the “QUEER COUNSELLING” website without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to use our company's special services via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, email address or telephone number of a data subject, is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to "QUEER COUNSELLING". By means of this data protection declaration I would like to inform you about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data collected, used and processed. Furthermore, data subjects are informed about the rights to which they are entitled using this data protection declaration.
As the controller, "QUEER COUNSELLING" has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection possible for the personal data processed via this website. However, internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.
1. Definitions
The data protection declaration of "QUEER COUNSELLING" is based on the terms used by the European legislator when issuing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The data protection declaration should be easy to read and understand for both the public and clients. To ensure this, I would like to first explain the terms used.
The following terms are used in this data protection declaration, among others:
a) personal data
Personal data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter “data subject”). A natural person is considered to be identifiable if he or she can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more special characteristics that express the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
b) data subject
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the data controller.
c) Processing
Processing is any operation or series of operations carried out on personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as the collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or modification, reading, querying, use, disclosure by transmission, distribution or other form of provision, alignment or association, restriction, deletion or destruction.
d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting their future processing.
e) Profiling
Profiling is any type of automated processing of personal data which consists in using these personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular aspects relating to work performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location or movements of that natural person.
f) Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be assigned to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that this additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures that ensure that the personal data not be assigned to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Person responsible for processing
The person responsible or responsible for processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, institution or other body which, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data.

The recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, institution or other body to which personal data is disclosed, regardless of whether it is a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data in the context of a specific investigative task under Union or Member State law shall not be considered as recipients.
j) Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons authorized to process the personal data under the direct responsibility of the controller or the processor.
k) Consent

3. Collection of general data and information
The "QUEER COUNSELLING" website collects a series of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the server's log files. What can be recorded are the (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses this website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites which are accessible via an accessing system on our website is controlled, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information that serves to protect against threats in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using these general data and information, “QUEER COUNSELLING” does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of the website correctly, (2) optimize the content of the website as well as the advertising for it, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of the information technology systems and the technology of our website and ( 4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. These anonymously collected data and information are evaluated by "QUEER COUNSELLING" on the one hand statistically and also with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in the company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data I process. The anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.
4. Routine deletion and blocking of personal data
The person responsible for processing processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or if this is required by the European legislator or another legislator in laws or regulations which the person responsible for processing is subject to.

The processing is unlawful, the data subject refuses the deletion of the personal data and instead requests the restriction of the use of the personal data.
The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of processing, but the data subject needs them to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
The data subject has lodged an objection to the processing in accordance with Article 21 Paragraph 1 of the GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate reasons of the controller outweigh those of the data subject.
f) Right to data portability

6. Data protection regulations on the application and use of Facebook
The person responsible for processing has integrated components of the company Facebook on this website. Facebook is a social network.
A social network is a social meeting place operated on the Internet, an online community that usually allows users to communicate with each other and interact in virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for exchanging opinions and experiences or allows the Internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Facebook allows users of the social network to, among other things, create private profiles, upload photos and network via friend requests.
Facebook's operating company is Facebook, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. If a data subject lives outside the USA or Canada, the person responsible for processing personal data is Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Each time you access one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller and on which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-in) has been integrated, the Internet browser on the data subject's information technology system is automatically activated by the respective Facebook component causes a representation of the corresponding Facebook component to be downloaded from Facebook. A complete overview of all Facebook plug-ins can be accessed at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE. As part of this technical process, Facebook becomes aware of which specific subpage of our website is visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognizes which specific subpage of our website the data subject is visiting each time the data subject visits our website and for the entire duration of their stay on our website. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned by Facebook to the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, such as the “Like” button, or if the data subject makes a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the data subject’s personal Facebook user account and stores this personal data .
Facebook always receives information via the Facebook component that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time as accessing our website; This takes place regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to Facebook in this way, they can prevent the transmission by logging out of their Facebook account before accessing our website.
The data policy published by Facebook, which is available at https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by Facebook. It also explains what setting options Facebook offers to protect the privacy of the person concerned. There are also various applications available that make it possible to suppress data transmission to Facebook. Such applications can be used by the data subject to suppress data transmission to Facebook.
7. Legal basis for processing
Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, such as to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance details or other vital information would then have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the above-mentioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, he was of the opinion that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).
8. Legitimate interests in processing pursued by the controller or a third party
If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of our employees and our shareholders.
9. Duration for which the personal data will be stored
The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After the deadline has expired, the relevant data will be routinely deleted unless it is no longer required to fulfill the contract or initiate a contract.
10. Legal or contractual regulations regarding the provision of personal data; Necessity for the conclusion of the contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision
I would like to clarify to you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). In order to conclude a contract, it may sometimes be necessary for a data subject to provide us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if the practice enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide personal data would mean that the contract with the person concerned could not be concluded. Before the data subject provides personal data, the data subject must contact me. I will inform those affected on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what consequences the non-provision of the personal data would have.
11. Existence of automated decision making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
12. Automatic creation of the GDPR
