Liability for Links
This website may contain links to external third-party websites over whose content I have no influence. No liability is therefore accepted for this external content.

Protecting your personal data matters to me. This private website does not actively collect, store, or sell any personal data.

No tracking or analytics cookies are used. This private site does not use technically necessary cookies (e.g. for logins or forms) either.

External Services / Content
No external services such as Google Analytics, social media plugins, or advertising banners are used. Embedded content (e.g. videos) is either self-hosted or only loaded with explicit permission.
