General Information and Mandatory Notices

Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We handle your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy.

When you use this website, various personal data will be collected. Personal data includes data that can personally identify you. This Privacy Policy explains which data we collect and how we use it, as well as how and for what purposes data is processed.

Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., communication via email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to guarantee complete protection of data from access by third parties.

Notice on the Responsible Party

The responsible party for data processing on this website is:

Maurice Wessely

c/o Block Services

Stuttgarter Str. 106

70736 Fellbach

maurice@monolith.codes

The responsible party is the individual or legal entity that alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage Period

Unless a specific storage period is specified within this Privacy Policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you make a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent for data processing, your data will be deleted, provided there are no other legally permissible reasons for retaining your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, data will be deleted after these reasons cease to apply.

General Information on the Legal Basis for Data Processing on This Website

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or, if special categories of data as defined by Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed, Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR. If you have explicitly consented to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or the access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), the processing additionally relies on Section 25(1) TTDSG. You can revoke your consent at any time.

If your data is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract or for pre-contractual measures, we process your data based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Additionally, if data processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, we process your data based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also occur based on our legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Detailed information on the specific legal grounds applied in each case can be found in the sections of this Privacy Policy.

Notice Regarding Data Transfer to the USA and Other Third Countries

Our website may use tools provided by companies based in the USA or other countries with less stringent data protection regulations. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transmitted to and processed in these countries. Please note that these countries may not guarantee a level of data protection equivalent to that within the EU. For instance, US companies are required by law to disclose personal data to security agencies, without any legal recourse for you as the data subject. Therefore, US authorities (such as intelligence agencies) may process, evaluate, and permanently store your data on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no control over these processing activities.

Right to Withdraw Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing activities are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke consent at any time. The legality of data processing up until the time of withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Specific Cases and to Direct Advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO ANY PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE SPECIFIC LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS OR IF THE PROCESSING IS FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(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 YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR SUCH MARKETING, INCLUDING ANY RELATED PROFILING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Relevant Supervisory Authority

If you believe that your data is being processed in violation of data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the EU member state of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement.

In Case of GDPR Violations

If there are violations of the GDPR, affected individuals have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the EU member state of their habitual residence, place of work, or place where the alleged infringement occurred. This right to lodge a complaint exists independently of other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another responsible party, this will be carried out only if technically feasible.

Right to Access, Correction, and Deletion

Within the framework of applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free access to your stored personal data, information on its origin, recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, the right to correct or delete this data. You can contact us at any time for inquiries about your personal data.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data. To do so, you can contact us at any time. This right applies in the following cases:

  • If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data is or was unlawful, you may request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of its processing instead of deletion.
  • If you have objected to processing under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your and our interests is required. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, it may—apart from being stored—only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

We hereby object to the use of contact information published within the legal notice requirements for sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, for example through spam emails.

Cookies

Our website uses "cookies," which are small data files that do not harm your device. Cookies can be either temporary for the duration of a session (session cookies) or stored on your device for longer periods (persistent cookies). Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit, while persistent cookies remain on your device until you delete them or they are automatically removed by your browser.



Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party providers (third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable certain services offered by external providers to be embedded in websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).



Cookies serve different purposes. Many are technically necessary, as certain website features wouldn’t function without them (e.g., shopping cart features or video display). Other cookies may be used to analyze user behavior or for advertising purposes.

The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing essential cookies to ensure a technically flawless and optimized service. If consent has been requested for storing cookies or similar technologies, data processing will be based solely on this consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TTDSG), which can be withdrawn at any time.



You can set your browser to inform you about the use of cookies and allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, disable them for specific situations, or block them altogether. You can also enable automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. Deactivating cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
