Privacy Policy
Dear visitors to this website,
The protection of your personal data is a particular concern for me. Below, I will inform you about the processing of personal data when you use my website.
Personal data refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (e.g., name, address, email address). I treat your data confidentially and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), as well as this privacy policy.
Generally, you can use this website without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data is collected on this website (e.g., via the contact form or during technical accesses), this always occurs in compliance with applicable data protection laws. I must point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating via email) can have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against third-party access is not possible.
1. Controller
The controller, in terms of the General Data Protection Regulation and other national data protection laws, is the website operator:
Zoltan Lokodi
Hagelkreuzstr. 37
40721 Hilden
Germany
Phone: +49 (0)2103 - 9106498
E-Mail: praxis@lokodi.de
Further details about me can be found in the Imprint.
2. Legal Basis for Data Processing
To provide you with this website and its associated services, I process personal data based on the following legal grounds:
Your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR), for example, when using cookies for analytical purposes. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time with future effect.
For the fulfillment of contracts or the implementation of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR), for example, if you request an appointment via the contact form.
Based on a balancing of interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR), for example, to ensure IT security and the stable operation of the website.
For the fulfillment of a legal obligation (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR), for example, legal retention periods.
If data is processed based on a balancing of interests, you have the right to object to the processing, on grounds relating to your particular situation (see Section 8).
3. Collection and Processing of Personal Data
a) Access Data / Server Log Files
When you visit my website, your browser automatically transmits information to the server, which is stored in so-called server log files. These are technical data required for the provision of the website and serve IT security. The following data may be collected:
IP address of the requesting computer
Date and time of access
Name of the retrieved file
Transferred data volume
Notification of successful retrieval
Browser type and version
Operating system used
Referrer URL (the previously visited page)
This data is collected based on my legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. IP addresses are deleted or anonymized after a maximum of 14 days. This temporary storage is for the purpose of detecting and preventing attacks and misuse.
b) Data from Active Participation
In addition, I collect and process personal data that you actively provide to me, for example, by voluntarily requesting information or by entering data into forms. This data is used exclusively to process your inquiries and to carry out the practice activities and related online services.
4. Duration of Data Storage
Unless a more specific storage period has been mentioned within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain stored with me until the purpose for data processing ceases to apply. Should you wish to have your data deleted (e.g., via the contact function, email to praxis@lokodi.de, by phone at +49 2103 9106498, or by mail), I will delete it immediately, provided that no legal retention periods (e.g., tax or commercial law requirements) necessitate longer storage. In such cases, deletion will occur after the respective period expires.
5. Your Rights as a Data Subject
You have the right, at any time and free of charge, to obtain information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipient, and the purpose of data processing.
Furthermore, you have the right to rectification, blocking, or erasure of this data, provided there are no legal retention obligations to the contrary.
You also have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
If data is processed automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, you have the right to data portability, meaning that the data will be handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format, if technically feasible.
You can withdraw any consent you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
For inquiries regarding your personal data, you can contact the address provided in Section 1 or Section 10 at any time.
6. 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. I will no longer process your affected personal data unless I can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
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.
7. Data Transfer to Third Parties and Third Countries
Generally, your personal data collected through your visit to this website will not be transferred to third parties. Exceptions apply if you have given me your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR, if there is a legal obligation for data disclosure in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. c GDPR, or if the data disclosure is necessary for contract processing between you and me in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 S. 1 lit. b GDPR.
Personal data will not be transferred to third countries outside the European Union or the European Economic Area, nor is such a transfer planned, unless explicitly stated below. If data is transferred to third countries, this will only occur in compliance with the legal requirements according to Art. 44 ff. GDPR, e.g., on the basis of EU Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses and supplementary measures to ensure an adequate level of data protection.
8. Security and SSL/TLS Encryption
To protect all personal data from unauthorized access and misuse, extensive technical and organizational measures have been implemented, which are regularly reviewed and improved.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you send to me as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser's address bar changing 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 me cannot be read by third parties.
