Privacy Policy
1. Data Controller
The data controller responsible for data processing on this website within the meaning of the GDPR is:
Florian Erdmann
Trommershausenstraße 20-22
42699 Solingen
Germany
Email: info@flo-erdmann.de
Phone: +49 151 23057889
2. General Information on Data Processing
We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website along with our content and services. This website does not use cookies. To evaluate visits to our website on an anonymized, statistical basis, we use the privacy-friendly, cookie-free analytics service Umami (see Section 4).
3. Hosting
This website is hosted by DomainFactory GmbH:
Domainfactory GmbH
c/o WeWork
Neuturmstrasse 5
80331 München
Germany
When you visit this website, the hosting provider automatically collects information in so-called server log files, which your browser transmits automatically. This includes:
- IP address
- URL accessed
- timestamp of the request
- amount of data transferred (in bytes)
- HTTP status code
- HTTP method (e.g. GET, POST)
- protocol used
- referrer URL (previously visited page)
- browser type (user agent)
This data is processed solely to ensure the smooth operation of the website and to improve our offering, not to draw conclusions about your identity. This data is not combined with other data sources. Log files from the previous month are automatically deleted at the end of each month.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of our website.
We have entered into a data processing agreement (DPA) with DomainFactory in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.
4. Web Analytics (Umami)
To statistically evaluate visits to our website, we use the web analytics service Umami, operated by Umami Software, Inc. (“Umami”) as a cloud service (Umami Cloud).
Umami collects anonymized, aggregated usage data, such as:
- pages visited and time spent on the site
- device, operating system, and browser used
- approximate geographic location (at country/city level)
- referring website (referrer)
Your IP address is not permanently stored. It is only briefly processed to determine your approximate location and is then hashed or not retained further. It is therefore not possible to identify individual persons from this data. Umami does not use cookies or any other identifiers stored on your device.
Data processing takes place in the EU data region offered by Umami, meaning the analytics data is stored and processed on servers within the European Union. Umami Software, Inc. is based in the United States; certain technical sub-processes (e.g. via subprocessors used) may therefore still have a connection to the US as part of service delivery. For any transfer of personal data to third countries, EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) have been agreed to ensure an adequate level of data protection.
The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in the demand-oriented design and statistical improvement of our website.
We have entered into a data processing agreement (DPA) with Umami Software, Inc. in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.

5. Fonts (Google Fonts, Self-Hosted)
This website uses Google Fonts for the consistent display of typefaces. These fonts are hosted locally, meaning the font files are part of our own website and are served from our server at DomainFactory.
No connection is established to Google’s servers. No data is transmitted to Google, and no data transfer to the US or other third countries takes place in connection with font display.
6. Contact
If you contact us by email or phone, the data you provide (e.g. name, contact details, content of your message) will be stored by us in order to process your inquiry and for any follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, where your inquiry relates to the initiation or performance of a contract, or otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to inquiries directed to us).
The data will be deleted once it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected; for data from an email inquiry, this is generally the case once the respective conversation with you has concluded.
7. Social Media (Links)
This website links to our profiles on LinkedIn and Instagram. These are plain links to the respective platforms, not embedded plugins or social media buttons that would automatically transfer data. Simply visiting our website therefore does not result in any data being transmitted to these providers.
Only if you actively click on one of the links and visit the respective platform do that provider’s own privacy policies apply:
- LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy
- Meta Platforms Ireland Limited (Instagram): https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policy
We have no influence over data processing on these platforms.
8. Your Rights
You have the following rights:
- right of access to your personal data stored by us (Art. 15 GDPR)
- right to rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
- right to erasure of your data stored by us (Art. 17 GDPR)
- right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- right to object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)
- right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
Where processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest), you have the right to object to such processing at any time.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority regarding our processing of your personal data. As a rule, the competent authority is that of your habitual residence or of our place of business.
9. Currency of This Privacy Policy
This privacy policy is current as of July 2026. Due to the further development of our website or changes in legal requirements, it may become necessary to amend this privacy policy.
