## 2. Hosting
Our web services rely on hosting providers just like almost every other website. These providers save the data that you provide to us on their servers for us. This is the case, because it isn't possible for us to maintain our own servers in own data centers. These hosting providers are trustworthy businesses that we have carefully selected. Additionally, they are obligated to comply with the GDPR as well as not use your data for any other purposes as intended.
### 2.1. Hetzner
Our Wiki is hosted on servers by the Hetzner Online GmbH ("Hetzner" from now on). Hetzner is a german business located in Gunzenhausen near Nuremberg. Hetzner can be found under the following address:
Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany

### 2.2. Cloudflare

## 3. General information
### 3.1. Data protection
The operators of our web services take the protection of your personal data very seriously. For this exact reason we don't use any tracking tools like Google Analytics. We handle personal data confidentially (except such which are provided to us as public information by you) and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use our website, various personal data is collected. This may potentially contain personally identifiable information. This privacy policy explains which data we collect and for what we use it for.
We would also like to point out that data transmission over the Internet unfortunately may always have security gaps. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
### 3.2. Note on the responsible body
This wiki is operated by fanwikis.org, which is a collective of private individuals. The individual responsible for the processing of personal data can be found in the [legal notice](/legal) of this website.
The responsible person decides alone (with the exception of the hosting providers mentioned above) over the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, contact data, etc.).
### 3.3. Duration of storage
Unless a more specific storage period has been specified, we only store your personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. For account-related data, this is usually until you or we delete your account.
Exceptions to this are cases in which we are required by law to store data for a longer period of time. In these cases, we will delete your data after the respective retention periods have expired.
### 3.4. Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. Usually this comes hand-in-hand with the deletin of your account(s). All you need to do is send us an informal e-mail. The legality of the data processing up to the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
### 3.5. Right to data portability
You have the right to have data that we process 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 responsible party, this will only be done as far as it is technically feasible. We cannot guarantee that the data will be readable by other wikis or software though.
### 3.6. Right to information, correction, blocking, deletion
You have the right to free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients and the purpose of data processing and, if necessary, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data at any time within the scope of the applicable legal provisions. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the [legal notice](/legal) if you have any further questions on the subject of personal data.
### 3.7. Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the [legal notice](/legal). The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we 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 happened/is happening unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
- If you have filed an objection in accordance with Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not yet clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
### 3.8. SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of content. This can be identified by the fact that the address of the website starts with "https://" instead of "http://". (In some modern browsers, the address bar needs to be clicked on to display the full address.) When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us usually cannot be read by third parties. However, as mentioned before, we cannot guarantee full security, as this is not possible on the Internet. SSL or TLS encryption is however considered very secure and used by banks and other institutions for example.
### 3.9. Advertising e-mails
We do not send any advertising e-mails. We will only send you e-mails if you have requested them or if they are necessary for the operation of our web services.
## 4. Data collection on our website
### 4.1. Cookies
Cookies are small packages of data stored on your device which can't do any harm. They are either stored for the duration of a browsing session or stored on your device for a longer amount of time and persist across multiple browsing session. Whilst cookies are often used to track userrs across multiple websites, we do not use them for this purpose. We only use cookies for technical functionalities of our web services. You can also configure your browser to not accept cookies at all. However, this may result in some features of our web services not working properly.
