2. Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany. The server location is in the EU (Falkenstein/FSN1 data centre).

When you visit the site, the hosting provider processes technically necessary information (e.g. IP address, date and time of access, browser type) to deliver the website securely. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in reliable operation).

Further details: Hetzner privacy policy.

3. Consent, local storage, and optional technologies

We do not set analytics or marketing cookies without your consent. By default, only necessary features are active. Analytics and marketing can be enabled separately.

3.1 Consent storage (local storage)

Your consent choices are stored locally in your browser under the key dcorr_cookie_consent_v2, including analytics and marketing flags, a timestamp (consentAt), and the policy version 2026-07-2. This information is not sent to our server.

Retention: until you withdraw consent or clear browser storage. We re-request consent after at most 12 months (based on consentAt). You can change your choice at any time via “Change consent settings” in the footer.

3.2 Statistics (own anonymous tracking)

If you opt in to analytics, we process anonymous event data such as page path, event type (for example link click), outbound target domain, and referrer domain (for example “google.com”). We do not store full referrer URLs, visitor profiles, or cookie-based identifiers. No analytics cookies are set.

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent). You may withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future.

3.3 UI function storage (local storage, necessary)

Some UI states are stored locally via local storage (for example, whether a banner was dismissed). These values are used only for website functionality, remain on your device, and do not require separate consent.

3.4 Marketing: LinkedIn Insight Tag

If you consent to marketing, we load the LinkedIn Insight Tag. The tag is loaded only after your active consent and is disabled by default.

Provider: LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland (part of Microsoft Corporation).

Purpose: conversion measurement, remarketing, and optimisation of LinkedIn advertising campaigns related to visits to this website.

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; Section 25(1) TDDDG (storage/access on your device only after consent).

Data processed (examples): truncated IP address, device and browser information, visited page URL, referrer, timestamps, and cookie identifiers.

Cookies (examples, may vary): li_sugr, bcookie, AnalyticsSyncHistory, UserMatchHistory.

Retention: determined by LinkedIn; see the LinkedIn privacy policy.

Transfers to the USA: LinkedIn may transfer data to the USA and relies, among other mechanisms, on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses.

Joint controllership: in the context of the Insight Tag, joint controllership under Art. 26 GDPR may apply. See LinkedIn’s privacy policy for details.

Partner ID (transparency): 9396754

Withdrawal: (1) disable marketing in consent settings; (2) optionally use LinkedIn’s retargeting opt-out. Withdrawal stops reloading the tag and future measurement. LinkedIn cookies already set on third-party domains (e.g. .linkedin.com) cannot be removed via first-party JavaScript — use LinkedIn’s opt-out or delete cookies in your browser settings.

4. Contact form and private lead inbox

If you contact us by email or via the contact form on this website, we process the data you provide (in particular name, email address, subject, message content, for research requests optionally company and role, and technical context such as page URL, language and, where applicable, UTM/referrer domain) to handle your request.

The contact form submits your details to our own form endpoint on our EU server (hosted by Hetzner). The data is stored in a private file store that is not publicly reachable and is used only to process your request. Access via the website or a download URL is not provided; retrieval is limited to authorised persons.

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your request relates to a contract or pre-contractual steps; otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in handling enquiries). We generally review and delete general or unanswered enquiries within 12 months, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

After a successful submission you see a confirmation (“thank you”) page. Advertising measurement on that page occurs only with marketing consent (see section 3.4).

We use technical abuse protections (including input validation, honeypot fields and rate limiting). Full IP addresses are not stored in the lead inbox.

5. Whitepaper requests and dcorr Quant Monitor

Whitepaper/research requests: If you request a whitepaper or research material via a form, we store your details server-side as described in section 4 (including company and role) to process the request. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR. If you additionally opt in to the Quant Monitor, we store that opt-in and rely on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR for sending those updates.

dcorr Quant Monitor: If you subscribe, we store in particular your name and email address in our private lead inbox. There is no automatic newsletter sending. Before any regular updates, we will personally ask once more whether you want to receive these emails (manual double opt-in). Regular mailings start only after your explicit confirmation. Legal basis: your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future (e.g. by email to info@dcorr.de).

Form submissions are a necessary website function and do not require cookie/marketing consent. Optional analytics and marketing remain separate (see section 3).

6. Your rights

Subject to GDPR, you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection (where applicable), and complaint to a supervisory authority. You may withdraw consent at any time via consent settings or by email to info@dcorr.de.

7. Changes

We may update this notice when the website or legal requirements change. For material changes (for example a new tracking service), we increase the policy version and may request consent again.
