Statistics, maps and service providers (as of November 2026)

Statistics: We measure the use of this website with our own cookieless first-party statistics. No cookies are set and no information is stored on or read from your device for this purpose. We record the page visited, the referring page, the time, the country, the device type and a coarse browser family. Visits are counted with an identifier that our server derives from a salted hash and that changes daily; IP addresses are not stored. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in understanding and improving our website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). If your browser sends a Do-Not-Track or Global Privacy Control signal, no statistics are recorded; you can also object at any time by email. Statistics records are deleted after 14 months.

Maps: Maps from OpenStreetMap are only loaded after you click to display them. Only then does your browser connect to the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation (United Kingdom), which receive your IP address in order to deliver the map. The legal basis is your request by clicking (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

Service providers: Cloudflare, Inc. delivers this website and protects it against attacks; Supabase, Inc. hosts our database. Both process personal data on our behalf under data processing agreements (Art. 28 GDPR). Where data is transferred to the USA, this is based on the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and/or the EU standard contractual clauses.

Newsletter: If you subscribe to our newsletter, your email address is processed by Brevo (Sendinblue SAS, Paris, France) on our behalf. You will only receive the newsletter after you confirm your subscription via the link in our confirmation email (double opt-in); we store the time of subscription and confirmation as proof. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time via the unsubscribe link in every email.
