1. Controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:
Hindsight - Studios UG (haftungsbeschränkt)
Konrad-Adenauer-Straße 9-13
45699 Herten, Germany
Phone: +49 2366 9404880
Email: info@hindsight-studios.de
Managing Director: Alexander Hechler
We have not appointed a data protection officer, as we are not required to do so under
Art. 37 GDPR / § 38 BDSG.
2. General information on data processing
We process personal data only where this is necessary to provide a functioning website and our
content and services. Processing normally takes place on the basis of Art. 6 (1)(a), (b) or (f) GDPR.
We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling.
3. Hosting and server log files
When you access this website, our hosting provider automatically collects information that your
browser transmits: IP address, date and time of the request, the page requested, referrer URL, browser
type and operating system. This data is required for the technical delivery and security of the site
and is deleted after a short period. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR, covering our legitimate interest in a
secure and reliable website.
4. Cookies and tracking
This website sets no cookies and uses no tracking, analytics or
advertising tools. No usage profiles are created. Because no non-essential cookies are used, no cookie
consent banner is required.
5. Fonts (Google Fonts)
This website loads typefaces from Google Fonts. This establishes a connection to servers operated by
Google Ireland Limited and transmits your IP address to Google. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR, covering our
legitimate interest in a consistent presentation of the site. Google's privacy information:
policies.google.com/privacy.
6. Contact form and project enquiries
If you use the enquiry form, the data you enter (name, company, email address, subject, budget and
timeframe, and your message) is transmitted to our web server and forwarded to us by email. The time of
submission and your IP address are also recorded, in order to prevent misuse.
Processing is based on the consent you give before sending (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR) and on the
performance of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time
with effect for the future. Your data is not passed to third parties; it remains with us and our
hosting provider. We delete it once it is no longer required and no statutory retention periods apply.
If our server-side delivery is unavailable, the form falls back to opening your own email
application with a prepared message. In that case no data reaches us until you send the email yourself.
7. Devlog newsletter
If you sign up for the devlog, your email address is transmitted to our web server and forwarded to
us by email, together with the time of sign-up and your IP address. Legal basis: your consent under
Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR. You may withdraw this consent at any time. An informal message to
info@hindsight-studios.de is sufficient, and every mailing will contain an
unsubscribe link.
No external newsletter service is currently connected. Your address remains with us
and our hosting provider and is not passed to third parties. Before any mailing is sent you will receive
a confirmation email, and you can revoke your sign-up at any point.
8. Your rights
You have the right at any time to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
- Have inaccurate data corrected (Art. 16 GDPR)
- Have your data erased (Art. 17 GDPR)
- Restrict processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
- Object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)
- Withdraw consent you have given (Art. 7 (3) GDPR)
To exercise any of these rights, an informal message to
info@hindsight-studios.de is enough.
9. Right to lodge a complaint
You have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about our processing of
your personal data. The authority responsible for us is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and
Freedom of Information of North Rhine-Westphalia (Landesbeauftragte für Datenschutz und
Informationsfreiheit Nordrhein-Westfalen), Kavalleriestraße 2–4, 40213 Düsseldorf.
