General information:

You may generally use the Einfach Genial gGmbH website for informational purposes without disclosing your personal data. When you access our website, we collect only information that does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your identity. These so-called server log files contain, for example, the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your internet service provider and similar details.

This information is technically necessary to correctly deliver the website content you have requested and is inevitably generated when using the internet. The legal basis for the temporary storage of data for these purposes is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.
   
Personal data:
Personal data is only collected if you provide it to us when contacting us, for example when filling in a contact form or when booking a workshop. We use the data collected via the contact form exclusively to process your enquiry. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR and our legitimate interest in responding to your enquiry. Where the processing of data is necessary for the conclusion of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for data processing. The legal basis for processing the data where the user has given their consent is Article 6(1)(a).
Disclosure of personal data to third parties:

We will only disclose your data if you have given us your express consent to do so. Your data will only be disclosed to third parties without your express consent if we are legally obliged to do so to authorities entitled to receive such information.
