This website is a static informational site. It can be used without providing any personal data.

• No cookies are set and no comparable technologies are used.
• There is no tracking and no audience measurement (analytics).
• No third-party content is embedded (no maps, videos, social media plugins or external scripts).
• Fonts are served locally from this website; no request is made to Google Fonts or other font providers.
• There is no contact form, no newsletter and there are no user accounts.

This website is hosted by the following provider:

Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA

When the website is accessed, the hosting provider processes technically necessary access data in server log files. These are generally: IP address, date and time of access, the page or file requested, volume of data transferred, HTTP status code, referrer URL, and browser type and operating system (user agent).

The processing serves to deliver the website and to ensure its stability and security. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in the secure and error-free operation of the website). The data is not combined with other data sources and is not used for profiling.

The hosting provider acts as a processor pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. The log files are stored only for as long as is necessary for the purposes stated; the specific retention period is determined by the hosting provider's specifications.

The hosting provider is based in the United States, so access data may also be processed outside the European Union. The provider is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, which the European Commission has recognised as ensuring an adequate level of data protection (Art. 45 GDPR).

If you get in touch by email, the data you provide (email address, name, content of the message and any further details) is processed in order to handle your enquiry.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR insofar as the enquiry is aimed at the conclusion or performance of a contract, and otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to enquiries).

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for handling the enquiry and no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.

This website links to profiles on LinkedIn and GitHub. These are plain links, not embedded plugins: no data is transferred to these providers when you visit this website.

You leave this website only when you click on such a link. The respective providers are responsible for data processing on the linked pages; their privacy policies apply.

Under the GDPR, you generally have the following rights:

• Access to the data processed (Art. 15 GDPR)
• Rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
• Erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
• Restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
• Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
• Objection to processing based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (Art. 21 GDPR)

To exercise these rights, an informal message to silas.natter[at]gmail.com is sufficient.

If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law, you may lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority:
