Privacy Policy
This website uses no tracking cookies and no consent banner. The following statement describes what data is actually processed when you visit this site.
This is a courtesy translation. In the event of any discrepancy, the German version (Datenschutzerklärung) prevails.
1. Controller
The controller responsible for the processing of personal data on this website is the Federal Association of German Pewterers e. V., represented by the association office (Stephan Dörr, Kreiselmeyer Zinnmanufaktur). Full contact details are available in the Imprint .
2. Hosting: Cloudflare Pages
This website is hosted via Cloudflare Pages (Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). When pages are loaded, your browser transmits technical connection data to Cloudflare servers — including your IP address, browser type, requested URL and timestamp. This processing is technically necessary to provide the website and is carried out on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in secure and stable operation).
Cloudflare is certified under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. Further information is available in the Cloudflare Privacy Policy .
3. Cloudflare Web Analytics
This website uses Cloudflare Web Analytics — a privacy-friendly analytics method that operates without cookies and without long-term storage of IP addresses. No personal profiles are created and no data is shared with advertising services. Only aggregated page-view metrics are measured (e.g. page views, referrers, device category) to improve the website.
Processing is carried out on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in improving the website). Because no cookies are set and no persistent device identifiers are transmitted, no consent banner is required. Further information: Cloudflare Web Analytics .
4. Fonts (self-hosted)
This website uses exclusively self-hosted typefaces (Fraunces, Hanken Grotesk). The font files are served directly from our Cloudflare Pages servers. No requests are made to Google Fonts or other external font providers; your IP address is not transmitted to third parties in this context.
5. OpenStreetMap
The members overview and the detail pages of our members include an embedded interactive map. The map tiles are loaded directly from the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF). When the map is loaded, your IP address is transmitted to OSMF servers — this is technically necessary so that your browser can receive the map data. We have no influence over this transmission or the subsequent data processing by the OSMF.
The legal basis is Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in displaying geographical location information for our members). Information on data processing by the OSMF is available in their Privacy Policy .
6. Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this website uses SSL/TLS encryption. An encrypted connection is recognisable by the browser address bar changing from "http://" to "https://".
7. Your Rights
With respect to the personal data concerning you, you have the following rights in relation to us:
- Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)
- Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
- Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
