Data Protection

The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously.
We treat your personal information confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data will be collected.
Personal data means any data that can be used to personally identify you.
This privacy policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and for what purpose.

Please note that data transmission on the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) may have security vulnerabilities.
A complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.

Information on the Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Dr. oec. troph. Claudia Laupert-Deick
Practice for Nutrition Therapy and Counseling
Rheinallee 50
53173 Bonn, Germany

Phone: +49 228 7667281
Email: claudia.laupert-deick@t-online.de

The controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

Data Retention

Unless a more specific retention period is stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies.
If you make a legitimate request for deletion or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted—provided there are no other legally permissible reasons for retaining it (such as tax or commercial retention obligations).
In the latter case, deletion will occur after these reasons no longer apply.

Legal Bases for Data Processing

If you have given your consent to data processing, we process your personal data based on Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR or, in the case of special categories of data, Art. 9 (2)(a) GDPR.
If you have explicitly consented to the transfer of personal data to third countries, processing also takes place on the basis of Art. 49 (1)(a) GDPR.
If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), processing additionally takes place on the basis of § 25 (1) TDDDG.
Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for pre-contractual measures, it is processed based on Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR.
If processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, it is based on Art. 6 (1)(c) GDPR.
Processing may also occur on the basis of our legitimate interests under Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.
The relevant legal basis for each specific case is detailed in the following sections.

Recipients of Personal Data

In the course of our business activities, we may collaborate with various external partners.
This sometimes involves transferring personal data to these entities.
We only share personal data when necessary to fulfill a contract, when required by law (e.g., to tax authorities), when we have a legitimate interest under Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR, or when another legal basis permits it.
If we engage processors, we share personal data with them only on the basis of a valid data processing agreement.
In cases of joint processing, a joint processing agreement will be concluded.

Withdrawal of Your Consent

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent.
You can withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future.
The lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal remains unaffected.

Right to Object to Data Processing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation.
This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The specific legal basis for processing can be found in this privacy policy.
If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or unless processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection under Art. 21 (1) GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such advertising; this also applies to profiling related to direct marketing.
If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Art. 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority

If you believe that your rights under the GDPR have been infringed, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement.
This right exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
You may also request that this data be transferred directly to another controller, where technically feasible.

Access, Correction, Deletion

Within the scope of applicable legal provisions, you have the right to obtain information free of charge at any time about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of data processing.
You also have the right to request the correction or deletion of this data.
For this purpose, or if you have further questions about your personal data, you can contact us at any time.

Right to Restrict Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data.
You may contact us at any time to exercise this right.
The right to restrict processing applies in the following situations:

  • If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request that processing of your personal data be restricted.

  • If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you may request restriction instead of deletion.

  • If we no longer need your personal data but you require it for the exercise, defense, or establishment of legal claims, you may request restriction instead of deletion.

  • If you have objected to processing under Art. 21 (1) GDPR, a balance must be made between your interests and ours. Until it is determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of processing.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data—apart from storage—may only be processed with your consent, or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for important reasons of public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or necessary for pre-contractual measures.
In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in efficiently handling inquiries (Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR) if it has been requested; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Data sent to us via contact requests will be stored until you request deletion, withdraw your consent, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., once your request has been fully processed).
