This notice explains how personal data is processed when you visit this website or enquire about and plan an event.

Hosting and technical operation

The website is hosted by STRATO GmbH, Otto-Ostrowski-Straße 7, 10249 Berlin, Germany. Visiting the site involves processing technical connection data, including your IP address, time of access, requested address, browser, operating system and, where available, the referring page. This supports website delivery, troubleshooting and security. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Technical logs are retained only as needed for these purposes; longer retention may be necessary to investigate a specific security incident.

Provider information: STRATO privacy notice. The website uses encrypted HTTPS connections. Google fonts used on the website are stored locally; delivering these fonts does not establish a connection to Google Fonts servers.

Enquiries and wedding planning

For enquiries and planning, we process the contact and event details you provide, your message and how you heard about DJ TOUCH. This information is used to respond, prepare an offer and plan the event. Article 6(1)(b) GDPR applies to contractual and booking enquiries; other requests are handled on the basis of our legitimate interest in communication under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

The forms run on this website using Contact Form 7 and include an arithmetic question to help prevent spam. Submissions are sent to anfrage@dj-touch.de. No automatic copy is sent to the visitor email address entered. Alex can send you a copy of your wedding plan personally. Hosting and email service providers may process the data as part of their technical services.

Enquiry and planning data is retained as needed to handle the request, perform a contract or protect legal claims. It is then deleted unless statutory retention obligations apply. Please provide information about other people only where it is necessary for planning the event.

Cookies and your choices

Complianz manages your cookie choices. Necessary storage supports the website and remembers your decision. Consent preferences are currently configured for up to 365 days. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using “Cookie settings” in the footer. Withdrawal applies to future processing.

Optional analytics, advertising and external media services are loaded only with the relevant consent. Processing requiring consent is based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR; storage and access on your device requiring consent are also governed by section 25(1) of Germany’s TDDDG. Strictly necessary operations fall under the statutory exception in section 25(2) TDDDG.

Google Analytics 4 and Google Ads

This website integrates Google Analytics 4 to analyse website use and Google Ads to measure advertising effectiveness. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Data may include page views, interactions, referral sources, device information and online identifiers. This data should not be regarded as inherently anonymous. Analytics and advertising consent are managed through the cookie dialog. Google Analytics loads after consent to “Statistics”; Google Ads loads after consent to “Marketing”. Withdrawing consent reloads the page to stop Google scripts that have already run.

Google may also process data outside the EU or EEA. Further information about recipients, processing and international transfers is available in Google’s privacy notice. The Analytics property used by this website is configured to retain event data for 2 months and user data for 14 months. New user activity resets the retention period for user data. These settings do not apply to most aggregated standard reports. Google signals is not enabled. Google Analytics is subject to the agreed Google Data Processing Terms, which cover processing on our behalf and safeguards for international transfers.

Instagram content through Elfsight

The Instagram feed is provided through Elfsight. When loading is permitted, the service receives technical connection data. Elfsight specifically lists IP address, operating system and browser type, with seven-day retention of this technical data. The service may use a cookie to count views. Details: Elfsight privacy policy. Following an Instagram link also brings you under that platform’s privacy rules.

Apple Podcasts and other links

The gallery includes an embedded Apple Podcasts player. Once you allow it, your browser connects to Apple to display and play content, involving technical connection and usage data. Details: Apple Podcasts and Privacy.

Links to WhatsApp, Telegram, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube lead to the relevant providers. Following these links takes you away from this website. The provider’s own privacy information applies to processing on its service.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of data processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct marketing (Article 21 GDPR)

Where data is processed on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on those provisions. The relevant legal basis for processing is stated in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process the personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims (objection under Article 21(1) GDPR). Where your personal data is processed for direct marketing, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing (objection under Article 21(2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of a breach of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. This right exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process by automated means on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract provided to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only take place where technically feasible.

Access, blocking, deletion and correction

Within the scope of applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of processing, and, where applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data. For this purpose and for any other questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases: If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data we hold about you, we generally need time to verify this. While we carry out the verification, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. If your personal data has been or is being processed unlawfully, you can request restriction of processing instead of deletion. If we no longer need your personal data but you require it to exercise, defend or establish legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing instead of deletion. If you have objected under Article 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. Until it is established whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. If processing has been restricted, this data may, apart from storage, only be processed with your consent, for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
