Privacy policy

The protection of your personal data is very important to us. We process your data exclusively on the basis of the applicable
legal provisions (EU General Data Protection Regulation GDPR, TKG 2003). In this privacy policy, we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing in the context of our activities.

Encrypted transmission

For reasons of security and data protection, this website uses SSL encryption, which prevents third parties from intercepting and reading the data you enter during transmission. You can recognise active encryption by the padlock or similar symbol in the address bar of your browser.

Contact with us

If you contact us via the contact form on the website, by e-mail, by telephone or by other means, the data you provide (name, e-mail address and optionally the telephone number) will be stored by us for one year for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. If the enquiry results in a contract, the statutory retention periods apply. We will not pass on this data without your consent. Data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b (fulfilment of contract) and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a (consent) of the GDPR.

Server protocols

The server from which this website is provided stores information that is automatically transmitted to us by your browser in so-called log files. These are

Browser type and browser version
Operating system used
The page (URL) from which you came to us
The IP address of the accessing computer
Time of the enquiry

This data is used exclusively for the technical monitoring of the web server (utilisation, optimisation, error detection, security) and is absolutely necessary for this purpose. They are not linked to other data sources so that they cannot be assigned to individual persons. They are deleted after three months.

Data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interests) of the GDPR. The legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR is the proper and secure functioning of the website.

Google Translate

We use the translation service Google Translate on this website, operated by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. When using the „EN“ function, Google Translate automatically establishes a connection to Google's servers. In doing so, Google may collect personal data, in particular your IP address, language settings and technical information from your web browser, transfer it to servers in the USA and process and store it there.
The processing of data in connection with Google Translate is based on our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (enabling an English-language website for our visitors).

Cookies

Our website uses so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your end device with the help of the browser. They do not cause any damage.

We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them. They enable us to recognise your browser on your next visit.

Some of these cookies are necessary for the operation of the website and save your consent to non-necessary cookies, the language you have selected and are used to log in. If you do not want the necessary cookies to be saved, you can set up your browser so that it informs you about the setting of cookies and you only allow this in individual cases.

The legal basis for the use of necessary cookies is Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interests) of the GDPR. Legitimate interests within the meaning of the GDPR are the proper and secure functioning of the website and the optimisation of our offer.

In addition, other cookies that are not absolutely necessary for the operation of the website may be stored only with your consent. Details can be found in the following sections.

Google Tag Manager

For the purpose of effectively configuring the analytics services described below, we use Google Tag Manager on this website, a service provided by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

The Tag Manager is primarily used to transmit data to the Google Analytics and Google Ads services described below. It itself processes
data only to the extent technically necessary, in particular the IP address of the accessing computer. The data passed on to the configured services is not analysed or stored.

We have concluded a processor agreement with Google in which Google undertakes to comply with the standard contractual clauses defined by the EU Commission. Data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit a (consent) of the GDPR.

The Google terms of use and further information on data protection can be found under the following links: https://marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/tag-manager/use-policy/ and https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/

Google Analytics

With your consent, our website uses functions of the web analysis service „Google Analytics“ of the provider Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Cookies are used for this purpose, which enable the use of the website by your visitors to be analysed. The information generated in this way is transferred to the provider's server and stored there.

If you have consented to the use of Google Analytics, cookies are set in your browser that identify you when you visit our website again and allow us to distinguish visitors and analyse what you have viewed on previous visits to our website. As the privacy of our users is important to us, this data is pseudonymised, i.e. we cannot assign it to any specific person and do not know who the respective visitor was.

We have activated the „IP anonymisation“ function on this website. This means that your IP address is truncated before it is transmitted to the USA and can no longer be assigned to a specific person. Only a rough localisation is possible. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

The Google terms of use and further information on data protection can be found under the following links: https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html and http://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/

Data storage

We store the following customer data for accounting purposes: Name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and VAT number. This data is not passed on, with the exception of transmission to the processing banks/payment service providers for the purpose of debiting and to our tax consultant for accounting purposes and to fulfil our tax obligations. The data is stored exclusively within the EU.

The data you provide is required to fulfil the contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures. Without this data, we cannot conclude and fulfil the contract with you.

All data from a contractual relationship is stored until the expiry of the retention period under tax law (7 years).

Data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit c (statutory provisions) of the GDPR and Art. 6 para. 1 lit b (necessary for contract fulfilment) of the GDPR.

Notes on our Facebook and Instagram fan pages

We operate a Facebook and an Instagram page, which can be found at https://www.facebook.com/personal.weddingsbynicolefriedrich/ and https://www.instagram.com/personal.weddings/ can be accessed. This is a service provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

We would like to point out that with the help of the Insight function, which Meta makes available to us free of charge as a non-negotiable part of the user relationship
anonymised statistical data concerning the users of these pages is transmitted to us. This data is collected using cookies, each of which contains a unique user code that is active for two years and which Meta stores on the hard drive of your computer or another data carrier of the fan page visitor. The user code, which can be linked to your meta login data, is collected and processed when you visit the fan pages. It is not possible for the operator of an Instagram business page to deactivate this function or to prevent the aforementioned processing of the data. You can find more information about Meta Insight here: https://de-de.facebook.com/help/pages/insights.

In this context, Meta agrees to assume primary responsibility under the GDPR for the processing of Insight Data and to fulfil all obligations under the GDPR with regard to this data. In particular, Meta warrants to assume sole responsibility for personal data processed in this context and to fulfil all obligations to provide information in this regard.

The data transmitted to us by Meta in connection with the use of the business site is anonymised, so that we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of individual users. However, it is possible to analyse demographic data about users (including trends in age, gender, relationship status and professional situation), information about users' lifestyles and interests (including information about the purchases and online purchasing behaviour of visitors to its site and the categories of goods or services they are most interested in) and geographical data in a statistical analysis.

We only process this data to analyse the reach of our Instagram page ourselves and do not pass it on to third parties. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interests) of the GDPR. The legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR is the identification of target groups that are interested in the content contained on our site.
