Visiting this website
This website is stored and delivered by GitHub Pages, a service of GitHub Inc., 88 Colin P. Kelly Jr. Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. When you open a page, GitHub processes technically necessary connection data: your IP address, date and time, the page requested, the page you came from, and details of your browser and operating system. According to GitHub, it stores the IP address for security purposes, for example to fend off attacks.
We have no access to these logs and do not analyse them. GitHub decides how long it keeps them.
Legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR: we have a legitimate interest in providing our website reliably and securely. Without this data the website cannot be displayed.
GitHub is a US company. The transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission's adequacy decision for the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (Art. 45 GDPR), under which GitHub is certified. See GitHub's privacy statement.
The connection to our website is encrypted via HTTPS.
No cookies, no tracking
We use no cookies and no audience measurement. Your browser only remembers how far you scrolled on a page, so that you return to the same spot when you go back. This information stays in your browser (in the so-called session storage), is never sent to us and is deleted when you close the tab. It is strictly necessary for this function (§ 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG).
Contacting us by email
If you email us, we process your details to reply to you. Our email is managed by Google Workspace (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). Google processes it on our behalf under a data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR). Data may be transferred to the USA; Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
Please note: emails are usually only encrypted in transit. Please do not send us test results or detailed health information by email. We are happy to discuss medical questions with you during your appointment.
Legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your message concerns your treatment or an appointment, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (our interest in answering enquiries). If your message contains health data, Art. 9(2)(h) GDPR in conjunction with § 22(1) no. 1(b) BDSG also applies.
We delete your email once your request has been dealt with. If it is part of your treatment, we add it to your medical record, which we usually keep for ten years (§ 630f BGB).
Appointments and messages via Doctolib
For online booking and for messages to the practice we use Doctolib (Doctolib GmbH, Berlin). Our website only links to it. You move to Doctolib only when you click “Book appointment” or “Message via Doctolib”. The link tells Doctolib that you came from our website.
Doctolib is itself responsible for your Doctolib user account. Appointment and message data for our practice is processed by Doctolib on our behalf (Art. 28 GDPR). Legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and, for health information, Art. 9(2)(h) GDPR in conjunction with § 22(1) no. 1(b) BDSG. For details see Doctolib's privacy information.
You don't have to use Doctolib. You can also make an appointment in the other ways listed on our contact page.
Links to Instagram and Google Maps
We link to our Instagram profile and to route planning on Google Maps. No data is sent to these providers unless you click. After you click, their privacy policies apply: Instagram (Meta Platforms Ireland Limited) and Google (Google Ireland Limited).
