Privacy Policy

Notice: The German-language version is authoritative and legally binding. This English version is a non-binding translation for information purposes only.

1. Data controller

Matthias Susok, Fröhdener Dorfstraße 8, 14913 Jüterbog, Deutschland
Email: art@digitallineart.com
Phone: +49 3372 4444664

No data protection officer is legally required to be appointed (Art. 37 GDPR, § 38 BDSG).

2. Hosting

This website is hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany. A data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR is in place; processing takes place in Germany.

Server log file recording (access logging) is deactivated for this website. No IP addresses, timestamps, requested resources, HTTP status codes, referrer URLs, or user agents are logged or stored server-side when the page is accessed.

3. Cookies and local storage

This website does not set cookies. Exactly one entry is stored in your browser: your chosen display mode (light/dark/automatic), technically a localStorage entry named dla_theme with the value auto, light, or dark.

  • Purpose: keeping your chosen display mode on your next visit
  • Legal basis: § 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG (German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act) — purely functional, no consent required
  • Retention: persists until you clear it via your browser settings or by switching the mode again

Nothing else is stored in your browser: no third-party analytics tools, no profiling. For anonymous, non-personal usage statistics, see section 4. All fonts used are self-hosted — there is no connection to third parties such as Google Fonts.

4. Anonymous usage statistics

For internal evaluation, this website records three simple daily counters: gallery page views, clicks on an individual artwork (opening the detail view), and artwork downloads.

  • What is stored: only a single number per calendar day and metric (e.g. "42 page views on 2026-09-21"). There is no link to individual visitors, sessions, or devices.
  • What is not collected: no IP address, no cookie, no device identifier, no fingerprinting, no combination with other data.
  • Purpose: internal operational overview (visibility and use of the generated artworks), basis for a daily internal summary email to the operator.
  • Personal data: since the recorded numbers cannot be attributed to an identified or identifiable person, they do not constitute personal data within the meaning of Art. 4(1) GDPR. This section documents the practice transparently regardless.
  • Retention: indefinite, as these are purely daily aggregate totals with no personal reference.

5. Contact form

When you submit the contact form, we process your name, email address, and message. This information is stored and forwarded to the operator by email to process your request.

  • Purpose: processing your inquiry
  • Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (your consent via the mandatory checkbox in the form)
  • Retention: until your inquiry has been fully processed, then manually deleted by the operator
  • Abuse protection: to limit automated submissions, a hidden form field (honeypot) and a minimum fill-in time are checked. Your IP address is not stored in plain text; only a non-reversible hash value is used to limit the number of requests per hour from the same address.

You may withdraw your consent at any time with future effect by sending an informal message to the email address listed in the Imprint.

6. External color data (pigmentum.net)

The background color of each generated artwork is retrieved server-side from the pigmentum.net database. This query happens exclusively between servers; your browser never connects to pigmentum.net directly, and your IP address is not transmitted to pigmentum.net.

7. Your rights

You have the right to access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20), and objection (Art. 21 GDPR). To exercise these rights, an informal message to art@digitallineart.com is sufficient.

8. Right to lodge a complaint (Art. 77 GDPR)

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement.
