When you access www.elb-waschcenter-hamburg.de, your browser automatically sends information to our web server, which is stored temporarily in a log file until it is deleted automatically: the IP address of the requesting device, date and time of access, name and URL of the file accessed, the referring website, the browser used and, where applicable, your operating system and the name of your access provider.

We process this data to ensure a smooth connection and convenient use of the website, to evaluate system security and stability, and for other administrative purposes. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We never use this data to draw conclusions about you personally.

3. No cookies, no tracking

This website does not set cookies and does not use analytics or tracking services. Fonts are served from our own server; no connection to Google servers is made.

4. Map

The overview map of our locations is our own graphic, served entirely from our server. No data is transmitted to map services or other third parties.

The “Get directions” buttons link to Google Maps. Only by clicking do you leave our website; Google's privacy policy then applies.

If you contact us by email or phone, we process your details solely to handle your enquiry (Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR) and delete them once it has been dealt with, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

We do not pass on your personal data to third parties unless you have given your express consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), disclosure is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), there is a legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR), or it is necessary to perform a contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).

Where we process your data on the basis of legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), you may object under Art. 21 GDPR on grounds relating to your particular situation. An email to info@elb-waschcenter-hamburg.de is sufficient.
