Data Privacy Policy

Dear visitors of this website,

In the following, I would like to inform you about the processing of personal data in connection with the use of my website.

When you use this website, various personal data will be collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

You can use this website, in particular to obtain information, without providing any details. If you use this website, it may be necessary for your provided or to-be-provided personal data (e.g., name, first name, address, email address, etc.) to be collected, processed, used, and stored. In all cases, processing is carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law, in particular in compliance with the requirements of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), and supplementary legal regulations. The legal basis for the processing of your personal data on my website is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. In the following, you can find more detailed information about, among other things, the purpose, type, and scope of the use of personal data by my website. During the technical implementation of these web pages, care is taken to ensure current and the greatest possible data protection, even though absolute and complete protection during the use of the internet (e.g., in communication by email) can never be 100% guaranteed.

1. Controller

The controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation, other data protection laws applicable in the member states of the European Union, and other provisions with data protection character is the website operator: Z. Lokodi, Kolpingstr. 9, 40721 Hilden, Germany, Tel. +49 2103 - 9106498, Email: info@coaching-lokodi.de. You can find further information about me in the legal notice.

2. Basics

We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and this privacy policy. The use of this website is generally possible without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (e.g., name, address, or email addresses) is collected on this website, this is always done on a voluntary basis, as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. As changes to this privacy policy may be made due to new technologies and the constant further development of this website, we recommend that you reread this privacy policy at regular intervals. Definitions of the terms used (e.g., "personal data" or "processing") can be found in Art. 4 GDPR. I would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating by email) can have security gaps.

3. Legal Bases for Data Processing

In order to be able to offer you this website and the associated services, personal data is used on the following legal bases:

Consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR)

For the performance of contracts (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR)

Based on a balance of interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR)

To fulfill a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR)

If personal data is processed based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. If data is processed based on a balance of interests, data subjects have the right to object to the processing of their personal data, taking into account the requirements of Art. 21 GDPR.

In the following, reference is made to terms that are related to the respective processing, so that you can classify on which basis personal data is processed.

4. Collection of Personal Data

The personal data collected and processed is used exclusively for carrying out the activities within the scope of the practice and the related online offers. The data is also used to identify and fix errors on the website. The collection of personal data takes place in your interest and exclusively through your active participation, e.g., through your voluntary request for information and your voluntary entries in forms. You can also visit this website without providing any personal information. However, to improve the online offer, your access data to this website may be stored (without personal reference). Some of the data is collected to ensure the error-free provision of the website. Other data can be used to analyze your user behavior. This access data includes, for example, the file you requested or, if applicable, the name of your internet provider, operating system, or the time of the page view (see also under Access Data). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter this website. Anonymization of the data makes it impossible to draw conclusions about your person.

5. Access Data

When you visit this website, personal data is processed to display the content of the website on your device. In order for the pages to be displayed in your browser, the IP address of the device you are using must be processed. In addition, further information about your device's browser is collected. I am legally obliged to also ensure the confidentiality and integrity of the personal data processed with my IT system. For this purpose and in this interest, the following data may be logged based on a balance of interests (see Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR):

IP address of the requesting computer

Operating system of the requesting computer

Browser version of the requesting computer

Name of the retrieved file

Date and time of retrieval

Amount of data transferred

Referring URL

The IP address or server log files are deleted from the system used in connection with the operation of these web pages after a maximum of 14 days. It is then no longer possible to establish a personal reference from the remaining data. The temporary storage of data may take place for security reasons, e.g., to clarify cases of misuse. If data must be retained for evidentiary purposes, it is excluded from deletion until the incident has been finally clarified.

6. Duration of Data Storage

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for the data processing no longer applies. Collected data will be deleted immediately at your request after notification via the contact function of the homepage, by email to info@coaching-lokodi.de, by telephone at +49 2103 - 9106498, or by post (Kolpingstr. 9, 40721 Hilden, Germany), provided that legal regulations (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods) do not require longer storage.

7. Right to Revoke, Information, Deletion, Blocking, Correction, Data Portability, Restriction of Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation. You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as a right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data at any time. Personal data is generally deleted when there is no longer a requirement for further storage. A requirement may exist in particular if the data is still needed to fulfill contractual services and to be able to check, grant, or defend against claims for performance. In the case of statutory retention obligations, deletion will only be considered after the respective retention period has expired. You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if it is technically feasible. You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.

If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and our interests. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests outweigh the other, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may – apart from its storage – only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

For this as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact the address given in the legal notice or the following email address: info@coaching-lokodi.de. In the case of an information request that is not made in writing, proof may be required to verify that you are the person you claim to be.

8. Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e or f GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR).

9. Data Transfer to Third Parties

A transfer of your personal data collected during your visit to this website to third parties is not planned, except in the cases previously mentioned, if you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, if there is a legal obligation for the data transfer in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, or if the data transfer is necessary in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR for the processing of the contract between you and me.

10. Transfer to Third Countries

Unless expressly stated, a transfer of personal data to third countries or data processing outside the European Union does not take place and is not planned.

11. Profiling

The processing of your personal data carried out by this website is not used for automated decision-making or evaluation (profiling).

12. Security, SSL or TLS Encryption

Of course, extensive technical and organizational measures have been taken to protect all personal data against unauthorized access and misuse, and these are regularly checked and improved. This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

13. External Hosting and Content Delivery Networks (CDN)

This website is hosted by an external service provider (host). The personal data collected on this website is stored on the host's servers. This may include, in particular, IP addresses, contact requests, meta and communication data, contract data, contact details, names, website accesses, and other data generated via a website.

The use of the hoster takes place for the purpose of fulfilling the contract with our potential and existing customers (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR) and in the interest of a secure, fast, and efficient provision of our online offer by a professional provider (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). To ensure data protection-compliant processing, we have concluded a data processing agreement with our hoster.

Our hoster will only process your data to the extent necessary to fulfill its service obligations and will follow our instructions regarding this data.

14. Cookies

The internet pages partly use so-called cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies do not install or start any programs or other applications on your computer. Cookies are useful to enable certain functions of the internet pages and to make the offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies." They are automatically deleted after your visit ends. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable your browser to be recognized the next time you visit. You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, or activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

15. Web Analytics

On this website, based on legitimate interests for the optimization and analysis of the online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, the web analytics tool "Google Analytics," which is offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), may be used to analyze website usage by users. The purpose of the use is the "needs-based design" of this website, which is carried out based on a balance of interests. Web analytics also enables the identification and correction of website errors, e.g., due to faulty links. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies" (see above). These are text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. So-called "Client-IDs" are used, which serve to create pseudonymous usage profiles that jointly record the use of the websites by desktop computers and mobile devices by a user. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. IP anonymization is activated on this website. The IP address of users is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. This shortening eliminates the personal reference of your IP address. The IP address transmitted by the user's browser is not combined with other data stored by Google. Google LLC complies with European data protection law and is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active. An adequate level of data protection is guaranteed by Google. As part of the agreement on the order data agreement, which would be concluded with Google Inc., the latter uses the collected information to create an evaluation of website usage and website activity and provides services related to internet usage. The data collected by Google on our behalf would be used to evaluate the use of the online offer, e.g., to create reports on website activity, to improve the online offer. You can prevent the storage of cookies on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies. Furthermore, you can prevent Google Inc. from collecting and using the information generated by cookies (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. Alternatively, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website by clicking on this link. By clicking on the above link, you download an "opt-out cookie." Your browser must therefore generally allow the storage of cookies for this purpose. If you delete your cookies regularly, you will need to click on the link again each time you visit this website.

16. Contact Form

A contact form is offered on the website, which you can use to request information or make general contact (e.g., to arrange an appointment). The data that is mandatory for answering an inquiry is marked as mandatory fields. Information in other data fields is voluntary. This information is required to process your request, to address you correctly, and to send you a response. For specific inquiries, data processing is carried out to fulfill a treatment contract or to initiate a treatment contract. For general inquiries, processing is based on a balance of interests. Inquiries received via the contact form are processed electronically to answer your request. The transmission of the form data over the internet takes place via encrypted connections.
