2. General notes and mandatory information
Data protection
As the operator of this site, I take the protection of your personal data very seriously. I treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data with which you can be personally identified. This privacy policy explains what data I collect and what I use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
I would like to point out that data transmission on the internet (e.g. communication by e-mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.
Note on the responsible entity
The data controller for this website is:
Markus Hendrich A-8330 Feldbach, Färberbergstraße 9 info@getthroughcancer.com
The controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).
Storage period
Unless a more specific retention period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless I have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be deleted once these reasons no longer apply.
General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a DSGVO if special categories of data are processed in accordance with Art. 9 para. 1 DSGVO. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49 (1) lit. a DSGVO. The consent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO. Furthermore, we process your data if this is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO. Furthermore, the data processing may be carried out on the basis of my legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. Information on the relevant legal basis in each individual case is provided in the following paragraphs of this data protection declaration.
Note on data transfer to the USA and other third countries
Among other things, I use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that are not secure under data protection law. In principle, all data is stored on servers in the EU and no data is transferred to other bodies or countries outside the EU.
However, when these tools are active, personal data could be transferred to and processed in these third countries. I would like to point out that no level of data protection comparable to that in the EU can be guaranteed in these countries. For example, US companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities, without you as a data subject being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) process, evaluate and permanently store your data located on US servers for surveillance purposes. I have no influence over these processing activities.
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke an already granted consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to object to the collection of data in specific cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
If the data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. E or F DSGVO, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation; this also applies to an evaluation based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, I will no longer process your personal data unless I can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims (objection under Article 21(1) of the GDPR).
If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to the evaluation, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If they object, their personal data will subsequently no longer be used for the purpose of direct marketing (objection pursuant to Art. 21 (2) DSGVO).
Right of appeal to the competent supervisory authority
In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects shall have a right of appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged breach. The right of appeal is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
Data portability rights
You have the right to have data that I process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
Information, deletion and correction
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. You can contact me at any time about this and any other questions you may have on the subject of personal data.
Right to restrict processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact me at any time about this. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data held by us, we will usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
- If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure. If we no longer need your personal data but need it to exercise, defend or enforce legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
- If you have lodged an objection in accordance with Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, a balance must be struck between your interests and mine. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may – apart from being stored – only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as enquiries that you send to me as the site operator. 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 line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties, or only with great effort.

Cookies
My website uses so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small data packets and do not pose a direct security risk. They are stored either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your terminal device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them yourself or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
In some cases, cookies from third-party companies may also be stored on your terminal device when you visit our site (third-party cookies). These enable me or you to use certain services of the third party company.
Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them. Other cookies are used to evaluate user behaviour or to display certain content.
Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain desired functions or to optimise the website (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO); consent can be revoked at any time.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.
If cookies are used by third-party companies or for analysis purposes, we will inform you about this separately within the framework of this data protection declaration and, if necessary, request your consent.
Server log files
The provider (hoster) of the pages collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits. These are:
- Browser type and 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 collection of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimisation of its website – for this purpose, the server log files must be recorded.
We use the following hoster for the provision of our website.
ALL-INKL.COM
Hauptstraße 68 D-02742
Friedersdorf
Contact form
If you send us enquiries via the contact form or register for our newsletter via the newsletter registration form, the information you provide in the form, including the contact details you enter there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry or registration and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, insofar as your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on my legitimate interest in the effective handling of the enquiries addressed to me (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) if this has been requested; the consent can be revoked at any time.
The data you enter in the form (contact form or newsletter registration) will remain with me until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
Request by e-mail, telephone or fax
If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your enquiry including all resulting personal data (name, enquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. I will not share this data without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, insofar as your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on my legitimate interest in the effective handling of the enquiries addressed to me (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO) if this has been requested; the consent can be revoked at any time.
The data you send to me via contact requests will remain with me until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
4. Plugins und Tools zur Verarbeitung von persönlichen Daten
Web analytics with Matomo
This website uses the open source web analytics service Matomo.
With the help of Matomo, I am able to collect and analyse data about the use of my website by website visitors. This allows me to find out, among other things, when which pages were accessed and from which region. I also collect various data (e.g. IP address, browser used, operating systems, etc.) and can use it to measure whether website visitors perform certain actions (e.g. clicks, cancellations, etc.).
The use of this analysis tool is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise both its website and its advertising. If a corresponding consent was requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting). The consent can be revoked at any time.
Surveys with TotalPoll
For surveys, I use the TotalPoll plugin from TotalSuite.
When visitors take part in surveys, their data is assigned to their respective vote. We also record the browser’s user agent string, date of voting and IP address in order to support spam detection and ensure the functionality of the survey. When you cast your vote, the vote and metadata are stored indefinitely. This way we can recognise and count the votes for each poll.
Newsletter_en
For our newsletter service we use the plugin “TheNewsletterPlugin” from Webagile SAS.
If you subscribe to the newsletter, the data in the respective input mask will be transmitted. The registration for my newsletter takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration you will receive an email asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with other people’s e-mail addresses. When registering for the newsletter, the date and time of registration are also saved.
The data will not be passed on to third parties. An exception exists if there is a legal obligation to disclose. The data will only be used for sending the newsletter. The subscription to the newsletter can be cancelled by the data subject at any time. Likewise, consent to the storage of personal data can be revoked at any time. For this purpose, there is a corresponding link in every newsletter. The legal basis for the processing of data after registration for the newsletter by the user is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR if the user has given consent.
Contact form
The Elementor plugin from Elementor is used to record the data on the account form. You can find everything else about the contact form above.
Ninja Firewall
This website uses the “All In One WP Security & Firewall” WordPress plugin, which use cookies and store IP addresses in the database of this website when logging in attempts. More information about this plugin can be found here: https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-wp-security-and-firewall/.
This plugin is used to increase the security of this website. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
For the collection of data via the contact form, we use the plugin “Elementor” from Elementor.
We provide you with a contact form with which we collect the following personal data:
Name and email address. Mandatory information is marked with an *.
In addition we collect: Time of transmission.
The data is stored exclusively for the purpose of transmitting enquiries and responding to them. The mandatory information is used for the allocation and the response to your request. This corresponds to my legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit f DSGVO).
Real Cookie Banner
To manage the cookies and similar technologies used (tracking pixels, web beacons, etc.) and related consents, we use the consent tool “Real Cookie Banner”. Details on how “Real Cookie Banner” works can be found at https://devowl.io/de/rcb/datenverarbeitung/.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data in this context is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to manage the cookies and similar technologies used and the related consents.
The provision of personal data is neither contractually required nor necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide the personal data. If you do not provide the personal information, we will not be able to manage your consents.
