Overview
On this site I only collect personal data that is technically required to operate the site, or that you actively provide (e. g. via the contact form). This policy describes in detail what data arises and how it is handled.Data controller

I set two strictly-necessary first-party cookies:emfoto-consent-v1 (1-year lifetime) remembers your cookie choice; ef-sess (30-day lifetime) is an opaque random token used only to deduplicate my own, consent-free page-view count (see “Own reach measurement”). Consent-based services (Google Analytics, Google Maps) are only loaded after your explicit consent — until then, no consent-based cookies are set.
Own reach measurement (no Google, no personal data)
To see which pages are viewed how often, I store one server-side row per page view with the page path, language, a timestamp and a dedup hash. The dedup hash is derived from theef-sess token, the path and the date; this way I don't double-count repeat views by the same visitor on the same day. I store no IP address, no user agent and no referrer; your identity cannot be reconstructed from the data. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in privacy-friendly reach measurement) and § 25 (2) no. 2 TDDDG for the strictly-necessary ef-sess cookie. This count is independent of Google Analytics and runs without consent because it processes no personal data.
