3. General information on data processing
The protection of your personal data is important to me. Personal data are processed on this website only to the extent necessary for providing the website, responding to enquiries, organising appointments, or complying with legal requirements.
Personal data are all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, name, contact details, IP address, or the content of an enquiry.
The processing of personal data is carried out in particular on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, insofar as it is necessary for the secure and functional provision of this website. If you contact us or submit an enquiry, processing is carried out, depending on the content of the enquiry, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where consent is obtained, processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Please note that enquiries in a psychotherapeutic context may involve particularly sensitive information. Therefore, please avoid sending detailed health data or especially confidential information by email unless this is necessary for the initial contact.
4. SSL or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this website uses SSL or TLS encryption.
You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of your browser begins with “https://” and a lock symbol is displayed.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, data that you transmit via this website generally cannot easily be read by third parties. Please note, however, that communication by email may involve security risks and that complete protection against access by third parties is not possible.
5. Access data and server log files
When this website is accessed, the hosting provider automatically processes information transmitted by your browser. This may include, in particular:
- IP address
- Date and time of access
- Page or file accessed
- Referrer URL
- Browser type and browser version
- Operating system used
- Amount of data transferred
These data are processed in order to technically provide the website, ensure the stability and security of the website, and trace possible technical disruptions.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The legitimate interest lies in the secure, stable, and functional provision of this website.
These data are not combined with other data sources.
The storage period of the server log files depends on the settings and specifications of the respective hosting provider.
6. Hosting
This website is hosted by IONOS SE, Elgendorfer Straße 57, 56410 Montabaur, Germany. In connection with hosting this website, IONOS may process personal data generated when this website is accessed. This includes, in particular, technical access data and server log files, such as IP address, date and time of access, pages or files accessed, referrer URL, browser type, browser version, and operating system used.
IONOS is used in the interest of providing this website securely, stably, and reliably.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The legitimate interest lies in the secure, stable, and functional provision of this website.
A data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR exists with IONOS, or, where applicable, the data processing provisions are part of the contractual arrangements with IONOS.

In particular, the following data may be processed:
- Name
- Email address

- Content of your enquiry
- Date and time of contact
Please note that emails may generally involve security risks. For initial contact, it is recommended not to transmit detailed health data or especially confidential information by email.

8. Appointment booking via Doctolib
This website may provide a link to appointment booking via Doctolib. If you click the corresponding link, you leave this website and are redirected to the Doctolib service.
Doctolib is generally responsible for data processing on the Doctolib website or platform. The Doctolib privacy notices apply.
Legal basis for providing the link: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The legitimate interest lies in providing a user-friendly option for scheduling appointments.
If Doctolib is not merely linked but directly integrated into this website as a widget or embedded service, data may already be transmitted to Doctolib when the website is accessed. In this case, a separate data protection assessment and, if necessary, a consent solution are required.
9. Google Maps / directions
This website may use a link to Google Maps or a privacy-friendly two-click solution to display directions.
If only an external link to Google Maps is provided, personal data are transmitted to Google only when you actively click the link and access Google’s website.
If Google Maps is embedded directly on this website, personal data, in particular technical access data, may already be transmitted to Google when the map is loaded. In this case, the embedding is carried out only on the basis of your consent.
Legal basis in the case of external linking: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Legal basis in the case of direct embedding after consent: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG.
10. Fonts
Fonts are used on this website to enable a consistent and appealing display of content.
Insofar as the fonts are integrated locally on the website’s own server, no connection to external font provider servers is established when the website is accessed.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
The legitimate interest lies in a technically stable and visually consistent presentation of the website.
If fonts are loaded via external providers, in particular Google Fonts, this section must be adjusted accordingly.

Legal basis for technically necessary cookies: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR and Section 25(2) TDDDG.
Legal basis for cookies requiring consent: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG.
