2. General Information and Mandatory Information

Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

We point out that data transmission on the internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Controller: Burkhard Hock
Verlag der Gesundheit
Moosbacherau 24
83454 Anger, Germany

Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by e-mail to us is sufficient for this purpose.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of breaches of data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The authority responsible for us is the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision (Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht, BayLDA), Promenade 18, 91522 Ansbach, Germany, www.lda.bayern.de.

SSL or TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.

Information, Blocking, Erasure

Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, where applicable, a right to rectification, blocking or erasure of this data.

3. Data Collection on Our Website

Server Log Files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• Browser type and browser version
• Operating system used
• Referrer URL
• Host name of the accessing computer
• Time of the server request
• IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

Cookies

This website does not use cookies and does not use any analytics or tracking services. For this reason, no cookie banner is displayed.

Contact by E-mail

If you contact us by e-mail, your details will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

Processing is carried out to answer your enquiry or to carry out pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR) and on the basis of our legitimate interest in processing the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Your data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for processing and no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.

4. Hosting

This website is hosted by an external service provider. When you visit the website, information (server log files) transmitted by your browser is automatically collected. This is done on the basis of our legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimisation of our website (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).

Our hosting provider is Replit, Inc., 3101 Park Blvd, Palo Alto, CA 94306, USA. The server log files are processed by Replit on our behalf on the basis of a data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR, available at replit.com/dpa). Further information can be found in Replit's privacy policy (replit.com/privacy-policy).

Third-country transfer: Replit hosts the website on Google Cloud Platform infrastructure in the USA. The data generated during your visit (in particular IP addresses in server log files) is therefore transferred to a third country outside the EU/EEA. The transfer is based on the Standard Contractual Clauses of the EU Commission (Art. 46 (2) (c) GDPR), which form part of Replit's data processing agreement.

The domain hock-methode.de is managed via Hostinger (Hostinger International Ltd., Larnaca, Cyprus); however, no content of this website is delivered via Hostinger and no visitor data is processed there.

5. External Content

FlipHTML5

Our digital books (flipbooks) are provided via the external service FlipHTML5. This website merely links to FlipHTML5; no data is transmitted to FlipHTML5 when you simply visit our website. Only when you follow a link to FlipHTML5 does the provider collect your IP address and technical data. The provider may process data outside the EU/EEA. Further information can be found in FlipHTML5's privacy policy.

Self-hosted Videos

The film about the Hock Method is delivered directly from our web server (see the Hosting section). When it is played, no data is transmitted to any further third-party providers beyond the processing described there.

YouTube / Vimeo

Our website contains videos from YouTube and Vimeo. These videos are not embedded automatically but merely linked or activated by clicking. No data is transmitted to the respective providers when you simply visit our website. Only when you actively start a video by clicking on it is data transmitted to YouTube or Vimeo. Further information can be found in the privacy policies of YouTube and Vimeo.

Fonts (locally hosted)

For a uniform presentation, this website uses the fonts "Playfair Display" and "Source Sans 3". The font files are stored locally on our server and are delivered exclusively from there. No connection is established to servers of Google or other font providers; no data is transmitted to third parties in the process.

Prepared E-mail Links (Contact Page)

On our contact page we use e-mail links (mailto) which, when clicked, open your own e-mail program with a prepared subject and text template. No data is transmitted via our website in the process; you send the e-mail yourself via your e-mail provider.

6. Your Rights

• Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)
• Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
• Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
