Disclaimer

Liability for Content

I make every effort to keep the in­for­ma­tion on this website current, but accept no liability for its accuracy, com­plete­ness or timeliness. As a service provider, I am re­spon­si­ble for my own content on these pages under the general laws, in particular the German Digital Services Act (Digitale-Dienste-Gesetz, DDG) and Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (Digital Services Act).

I am not obligated to monitor third-party in­for­ma­tion trans­mit­ted or stored on this website or to in­ves­ti­gate cir­cum­stances indicating illegal activity. Ob­li­ga­tions to remove or block the use of in­for­ma­tion under the general laws remain unaffected. Liability in this respect is only possible from the time I become aware of a specific in­fringe­ment. Upon becoming aware of such in­fringe­ments, I shall remove the content promptly.

Liability for Links

This website contains links to external third-party websites over whose content I have no influence. I therefore cannot accept any liability for such third-party content. The respective provider or operator of the linked pages is always re­spon­si­ble for their content. At the time of linking, the linked pages were checked for possible legal violations, and no unlawful content was apparent. However, permanent monitoring of linked pages is not reasonable without concrete in­di­ca­tions of an in­fringe­ment. Upon becoming aware of any in­fringe­ment, I shall remove such links promptly.

Affiliate Links (Ad­ver­tis­ing)

Some links on this website are affiliate links (partner links) and are marked as such, for example with the label “Ad­ver­tis­ing” or an asterisk (*). If you buy a product or sign up for a service via such a link, I may receive a commission from the respective provider. This does not cost you anything extra. Rec­om­men­da­tions and reviews on this website reflect my own assessment. For in­for­ma­tion on data processing in connection with affiliate links, please see the Privacy Policy below.

Copyrights

The content and works created by me on these pages are governed by German copyright law. Du­pli­ca­tion, processing, dis­tri­bu­tion or any form of ex­ploi­ta­tion beyond the scope of copyright law requires my prior written consent. Downloads and copies of these pages are permitted for private, non-commercial use only. Where content on these pages was not created by me, the copyrights of third parties are respected; third-party content is marked as such. Should you nev­er­the­less become aware of a copyright in­fringe­ment, please let me know. Upon becoming aware of any in­fringe­ment, I shall remove such content promptly.

Privacy Policy

The protection of your personal data is important to me. This website can generally be used without providing personal data. Where I process personal data (for example name, address or e-mail address), I do so in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the German Tele­com­mu­ni­ca­tions Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG). This Privacy Policy is a trans­la­tion provided for con­ve­nience; in case of dis­crep­an­cies, the German version (pages 4 to 6 of the German disclaimer) prevails.

1. Controller

The controller within the meaning of the GDPR is:
Marc-Christian Jäger M.A.
Bornholmer Straße 85
10439 Berlin, Germany
Phone: +49 30 41722364
E-mail: info@marcjaeger.net

2. Hosting and server log files

When you visit this website, the web server au­to­mat­ic­ally records in­for­ma­tion trans­mit­ted by your browser (server log files): IP address, date and time of access, page or file requested, amount of data trans­ferred, referrer URL, browser type and version, and operating system. This processing is necessary to deliver the website and to ensure its stability and security. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in secure and trouble-free operation). Log files are deleted after 7 days; they are not merged with other data sources.

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 with the provider.

3. Contacting me (contact form, e-mail, telephone)

If you contact me via the contact form, by e-mail or by telephone, I process the data you provide (e.g. name, e-mail address, telephone number, content of your message and any texts or files you send) in order to handle your enquiry and any follow-up questions. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your enquiry relates to a contract or pre-con­trac­tual measures (e.g. a quotation for a trans­la­tion), and otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in handling enquiries ef­fec­tively). Providing your data is voluntary, but without the details needed to reply (in particular a way to contact you) I cannot handle your enquiry.

I delete your enquiry once it has been dealt with and no statutory retention ob­li­ga­tions apply. If a contract is concluded, I retain the data for the duration of the statutory retention periods (e.g. under commercial and tax law). Data entered in the contact form is trans­mit­ted in encrypted form (TLS). To protect against automated sub­mis­sions, the contact form contains a simple arithmetic question and a hidden honeypot field. No external captcha service is used.

Please note that data trans­mis­sion over the internet (e.g. com­mu­ni­ca­tion by e-mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible. Please send con­fi­den­tial documents to me in encrypted form where possible, or agree a secure trans­mis­sion method with me beforehand.

4. Cookies and similar tech­nolo­gies (consent)

In­for­ma­tion is stored on your device or accessed from it (e.g. by cookies) only with your consent (Section 25(1) TDDDG in con­junc­tion with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), unless access is strictly necessary for a service you have expressly requested (Section 25(2) TDDDG). On this website, this currently concerns audience meas­ure­ment with Google Analytics (see below). You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future or change your selection: Open cookie settings. There you can make your selection under “Statistics (Google Analytics)” or withdraw your consent with “Reject all”. The “Cookie settings” link in the footer opens the same window at any time. The lawfulness of processing carried out until withdrawal remains unaffected. You can also prevent cookies from being stored in your browser settings; in that case, not all functions of the website may be available.

Consent management: To obtain and manage your consent, I use the open-source tool “CookieConsent” (version 3.1, MIT licence). It is hosted on this website itself; no data is trans­mit­ted to the developer or to any other third party in the process. I store your selection in a cookie named “cc_cookie” on your device (duration: 182 days) so that you are not asked again on every page view. This cookie is tech­ni­cally necessary (Section 25(2) TDDDG). If the purpose of the processing changes, I will ask for your decision again.

5. Google Analytics

If you have consented, this website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). Its purpose is to evaluate the use of this website, to compile reports on website activity and to improve the offering. Google Analytics uses cookies or similar tech­nolo­gies (e.g. local storage) that allow your browser to be recognised and your use of the website to be analysed. In particular, pages viewed, time spent, origin of visitors, ap­prox­imate location (region), device, browser and operating system details and in­ter­ac­tions on the website are recorded. According to Google, IP addresses are not logged or stored in Google Analytics 4.

The following cookies are used: “_ga” (dis­tin­guishes visitors; duration: 2 years) and “_ga_*” (stores the session state in Google Analytics 4; duration: 2 years).

The legal basis is your consent (Section 25(1) TDDDG and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Google Analytics is not loaded without your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future: Open cookie settings. There you can make your selection under “Statistics (Google Analytics)” or withdraw your consent with “Reject all”. The “Cookie settings” link in the footer opens the same window at any time.

Google Analytics is operated on my behalf; a data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR is in place with Google. Data may be trans­ferred to Google LLC in the USA. Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, so an adequacy decision of the European Commission applies to this transfer; EU Standard Con­trac­tual Clauses may apply in addition. The retention period is 2 months for event data and 14 months for user data. If there is new user activity, the retention period for user data is reset. Besides with­draw­ing your consent, you can prevent the collection of the data generated by Google Analytics by installing the browser add-on available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Further in­for­ma­tion on data use by Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

6. Affiliate links (partner programmes)

This website contains affiliate links to Amazon PartnerNet. If you click such a link, you are forwarded to the partner’s website. In this process, the partner or partner network may process in­for­ma­tion such as your IP address, browser and device in­for­ma­tion, the referring page and the time of the click, and may set a cookie on your device in order to attribute the visit to my website and to calculate the commission. The respective partner or network operator is re­spon­si­ble for this processing; I myself do not receive any personal data, only commission statements. Please refer to the partner’s privacy notice for details.

The affiliate links on my pages are plain links; no banners, scripts or tracking pixels of the partners are loaded. Data is therefore only trans­mit­ted to the partner once you click the link. The legal basis for the linking is my legitimate interest in financing this website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Whether cookies are set on the des­ti­na­tion site depends on the consent procedure there.

7. Links to social networks and external profiles

These pages contain icons linking to my profiles or contact options on Facebook, Microsoft Teams, ProZ.com and Xing. These are plain links, not embedded plugins (there is no “Like” button or share function), so no data is trans­mit­ted to these providers merely by visiting these pages. Only when you click an icon do you leave this website and your browser connects to the provider’s server, trans­mit­ting tech­ni­cally required data such as your IP address, browser in­for­ma­tion, the time of access and the page you came from. If you are logged in with the provider, it may be able to attribute the visit to your account. I have no influence on further processing; the privacy policy of the respective provider applies. The legal basis for the linking is my legitimate interest in being easy to reach and in presenting myself externally (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Facebook is provided in the EU by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland (https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/). I also operate a Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/MarcJaegerUebersetzungen); for data processing when visiting that page, in particular for statistics (“Page Insights”), I am jointly re­spon­si­ble with Meta (Art. 26 GDPR); see https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/page_controller_addendum. Microsoft Teams is provided by Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited, One Microsoft Place, South County Business Park, Leopardstown, Dublin 18, Ireland (https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-gb/privacystatement). If you write to me via Teams, I process your message to handle your enquiry (Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR). ProZ.com and Xing are operated by their respective providers under their own re­spon­si­bil­ity.

8. Disclosure of data and transfers to third countries

Your personal data is only disclosed to third parties if you have consented (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if this is necessary for performing a contract or for pre-con­trac­tual measures (point (b)), if I am legally obliged to do so (point (c)) or if I have a legitimate interest (point (f)). Service providers I use (e.g. hosting) process data only on my behalf and on the basis of a contract pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. Where data is trans­ferred outside the EU/EEA (in particular to the USA), this only takes place on the basis of an adequacy decision of the European Commission or ap­pro­pri­ate safeguards (e.g. EU Standard Con­trac­tual Clauses).

9. Your rights

You have the right to obtain in­for­ma­tion from me about the data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR) and the right to rec­ti­fi­ca­tion (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), re­stric­tion of processing (Art. 18) and data por­ta­bil­ity (Art. 20). You can withdraw any consent you have given at any time with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR).

Right to object: Where I process data on the basis of legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to this processing at any time (Art. 21 GDPR). Please simply contact me using the details above.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection su­per­vi­sory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The authority re­spon­si­ble for me is the Berlin Com­mis­sioner for Data Protection and Freedom of In­for­ma­tion (Berliner Be­auf­tragte für Da­ten­schutz und In­for­ma­ti­ons­frei­heit), Alt-Moabit 59–61, 10555 Berlin, Germany, www.datenschutz-berlin.de.

10. Objection to ad­ver­tis­ing e-mails

I expressly object to the use of the contact details published in my legal notice (Impressum) by third parties for sending ad­ver­tis­ing and in­for­ma­tion material that has not been expressly requested. I reserve the right to take legal action in the event of un­so­lic­ited ad­ver­tis­ing, for example spam e-mails.

11. Cur­rent­ness of this Privacy Policy

Status: November 2026. I reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy so that it always complies with current legal re­quire­ments or to reflect changes to my services.
