Represented by the management.
2. General
The protection of your personal data matters to us. We process your data exclusively on the basis of the statutory provisions (GDPR, BDSG, TDDDG). In this policy we inform you about the key aspects of data processing in the context of our website.
3. Hosting
Our website is hosted by STRATO AG, Otto-Ostrowski-Straße 7, 10249 Berlin, Germany. When you visit our website, STRATO processes various data on our behalf as a processor (see server log files). The legal basis is our legitimate interest in providing our website securely and efficiently (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). A data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR) is in place with STRATO.
4. Server log files
When the website is accessed, the hosting provider automatically records information transmitted by your browser in what are known as server log files: IP address, date and time of access, file requested, volume of data transferred, browser type and version, and the operating system. This data is used for technical provision and security and is not merged with other data sources. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
5. Contact form
If you send us an enquiry via the contact form, we process the data you provide (name, e-mail address, telephone number where given, and your message) in order to handle your enquiry.
Storage in Airtable (transfer to the USA)
We use the Airtable service provided by Formagrid Inc., 155 5th Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA, to manage enquiries. Your details are transmitted via our server to Airtable and stored there. This may involve a transfer to the USA. The basis for this is the European Commission's standard contractual clauses and participation in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Further information: airtable.com/company/privacy.
The legal basis is the initiation or performance of a (pre-)contractual relationship (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and our legitimate interest in handling enquiries efficiently (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We delete the data as soon as your enquiry has been conclusively dealt with and no statutory retention obligations apply.
6. Cookies and tracking
This website uses no cookies and employs no analytics, tracking or advertising services (no Google Analytics, no social media plugins, no Facebook pixel or similar). No data on your browsing behaviour is collected and no profiles are created. Fonts and images are embedded directly in the page, so no external content (such as Google Fonts) is loaded either. For this reason, no cookie banner is required.

- Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)
- Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
- Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
- Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)

An informal message to info@tastebase.de is sufficient to exercise them.
