Revocation of your consent to data processing


Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.


Right to object to data processing in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)


If data processing is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR, you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of your personal data. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective 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 which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims (objection pursuant to Article 21(1) of the 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. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR).


Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority


In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.


Right to data portability


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


SSL or TLS encryption


This site uses SSL/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 browser's address bar changes from "https://" to "https://" and ...

"http://" changes to "https://" and you can see the lock symbol in your browser bar.


When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.


Encrypted payment transactions on this website


If, after concluding a paid contract, you are obligated to provide us with your payment details (e.g., account number for direct debit), this data is required for payment processing.


Payments via common payment methods (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are processed exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address bar changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the padlock symbol in your browser's address bar.


With encrypted communication, your payment details that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.


Information, deletion and correction


Under applicable law, you have the right to request information, free of charge, about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, as well as the right to rectification or erasure of this data. For this purpose, and for any further questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address provided in the legal notice.


Right to restriction of processing


You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address provided in the legal notice. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:


If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification process, 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 require it for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data instead of erasure.


If you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of interests between your interests and ours must be carried out. Until it is determined whose interests prevail, 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 – apart from being stored – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, 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 of a Member State.


Objection to advertising emails


The use of contact details published as part of the legal notice for sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials is hereby prohibited. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising, such as spam emails.

Cookies serve various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies are used to analyze user behavior or to display advertising.


Cookies that are necessary for the electronic communication process (essential cookies), for providing certain functions you have requested (functional cookies, e.g., for the shopping cart function), or for optimizing the website (e.g., cookies for measuring website traffic) are stored on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically flawless and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies has been requested, the storage of the relevant cookies is based exclusively on this consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR); this consent can be revoked at any time.


You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to accept cookies in certain cases or to generally reject them, and to automatically delete cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Technically necessary cookies are used by default. Additionally, MyWebsite Creator uses tracking cookies based on Snowplow Analytics technology. This tool does not collect any personal data and is used by IONOS solely to improve its product offerings.

The website provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. This information includes:

Browser type and version, operating system used, referrer URL

Hostname of the accessing computer, time of the server request

IP address


This data will not be combined with other data sources.


This data is collected on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically flawless presentation and optimization of its website – for this purpose, the server log files must be recorded.


Contact form


If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your information from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this data without your consent.


The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for taking steps prior to entering into a contract. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), if such consent has been obtained.


The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular, retention periods – remain unaffected.


Inquiries via email, telephone or fax


When you contact us by email, telephone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not share this data without your consent.


The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for taking steps prior to entering into a contract. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), if such consent has been obtained.


The data you send us via contact requests will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular, statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.


When contacting us via email


You have the option of contacting us electronically via our email addresses (e.g., uwe.winkler@docwinkler.com). In this case, your personal data transmitted by email will be stored by us.


The legal basis for processing your personal data, which you transmit to us when contacting us electronically via email, is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If the electronic contact via email aims at concluding a contract with us, the legal basis for processing your personal data is also Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. We use your data to process your request and to contact you. These purposes constitute our legitimate interests in data processing pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.


Your data will be deleted by us – unless contractual or legal obligations prevent deletion – as soon as it is no longer required for the aforementioned purposes; this is the case when the matter underlying your electronic contact has been fully resolved. If you conclude a contract with us as a result of your electronic contact, your data will only be deleted when it is no longer required for the performance of the contract or the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Please note that it may be necessary to store your data even after the contract has been fulfilled in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.


You can object to the use of your personal data at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs. In such a case, your data stored in connection with electronic contact will be deleted; the processing of your request cannot be continued. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, (premature) deletion of your data is only possible insofar as no contractual or legal obligations preclude such deletion.

7. Plugins and Tools


YouTube with enhanced privacy


This website embeds videos from YouTube. The operator of the site is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.


We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode prevents YouTube from storing information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, enhanced privacy mode does not necessarily prevent data from being shared with YouTube partners. For example, YouTube establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network regardless of whether you watch a video.


As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This informs the YouTube server which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to directly associate your browsing behavior with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.


Furthermore, after a video starts playing, YouTube may store various cookies on your device or use similar recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting). This allows YouTube to obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to compile video statistics, improve user-friendliness, and prevent fraud.


Additional data processing operations may be triggered after a YouTube video starts, over which we have no control.


The use of YouTube is in our legitimate interest in presenting our online content in an appealing way. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR; this consent can be revoked at any time.


Further information about data protection at YouTube can be found in their privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de.


Vimeo without tracking (Do-Not-Track)


This website uses plugins from the video portal Vimeo. The provider is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.


When you visit one of our pages that includes Vimeo videos, a connection is established to Vimeo's servers. This informs the Vimeo server which of our pages you have visited. Vimeo also receives your IP address. However, we have configured Vimeo so that it will not track your user activity or set cookies.


The use of Vimeo is in our legitimate interest in presenting our online content in an appealing way. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR; this consent can be revoked at any time.


Vimeo has a certification under the EU-US Privacy Shield, which is intended to ensure that the processing of personal data in the USA complies with EU standards.

Adobe Fonts


This website uses web fonts from Adobe for the consistent display of certain fonts. The provider is Adobe Systems Incorporated, 345 Park Avenue, San Jose, CA 95110-2704, USA (Adobe).


When you visit this website, your browser loads the necessary fonts directly from Adobe to display them correctly on your device. In doing so, your browser establishes a connection to Adobe's servers in the USA. This allows Adobe to know that this website was accessed via your IP address. According to Adobe, no cookies are stored when the fonts are provided.


Adobe is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield. The Privacy Shield is an agreement between the United States and the European Union designed to ensure compliance with European data protection standards. Further information can be found at: https://www.adobe.com/de/privacy/eudatatransfers.html.


The data is stored and analyzed on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the uniform presentation of the typeface on its website. If corresponding consent has been requested (e.g., consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR; this consent can be revoked at any time.
