Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

1. Data Controller

The party responsible for data processing on this website within the meaning of the GDPR is:

Benjamin Kötting - koetting.io
Voßbergweg 76d
26209 Hatten, Germany
E-Mail: hello@aktuno.com
Tel.: 04481 99 79 00 00

2. General Information on Data Processing

We process personal data only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website along with our content and services. Processing generally takes place only with the user's consent or on the basis of a legal permission (Art. 6(1) GDPR).

3. Hosting

This website is hosted on our own servers operated at Hetzner Online GmbH (Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany). When you access the website, the server automatically collects technical data in server log files transmitted by your browser: IP address, date and time of the request, browser type and version, operating system, and referrer URL. This data is not merged with other data sources. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

4. Contacting Us

If you contact us by email, phone, or through our booking form, we store the information you provide for the purpose of handling your inquiry and in case of any follow-up questions. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR.

5. Appointment Booking (Easy!Appointments)

To book consultation appointments, we use a self-hosted instance of Easy!Appointments running on our own servers in Germany (meet.aktuno.com). The information you provide is used solely for appointment management. No data is transferred to third-party providers outside the EU. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

6. Analytics Tools

We use the following analytics tools to understand how our website is used and to improve it:

Umami Analytics (no cookie consent required)

This website uses Umami, a privacy-friendly web analytics solution hosted on our own servers in Germany. Umami sets no cookies, stores no personal data, and creates no individual user profiles. All data is evaluated in anonymised form. Since no personal data within the meaning of the GDPR is processed, no consent is required. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Google Analytics 4 (Consent Mode)

We use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). Google Analytics is technically loaded on every page visit, but uses Google Consent Mode: without your consent ("Analytics" category), data storage defaults to "denied" - no cookies are set and no personal identifiers are stored. Only once you give consent does Google Analytics evaluate your browsing behaviour on our website on a personal basis and transmit the corresponding data to Google's servers. The legal basis for processing after consent is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Opt-out: You can withdraw your consent at any time via the Cookie Settings link in the footer.

Google Tag Manager (Consent Mode)

We use Google Tag Manager from Google Ireland Limited to manage tags centrally and implement Consent Mode. Tag Manager itself does not collect personal data and does not set cookies - it technically loads on every page visit, but ensures that the tags it manages (e.g. Google Analytics) only process personal data once you have consented to the "Analytics" category.

7. Marketing Cookies

If you consent to the "Marketing" category, tracking technologies from advertising networks (e.g., Meta) may be activated on this website, enabling personalised ads to be shown to you on other websites. At the current time, no advertising pixel is actively embedded. Should this change in the future, we will update this privacy policy accordingly.

8. Cookie Settings

On your first visit to this website, your cookie preferences are requested via a consent banner. Your selection is stored in your browser (localStorage, key: aktuno_cookie_consent). Consent is voluntary and can be withdrawn or changed at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in the website footer. The three categories are:

  • Essential - always active, required for the website to function
  • Analytics - for Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager (data processing only after consent, Consent Mode)
  • Marketing - for advertising networks (consent required; no pixel active at present)

9. SSL/TLS Encryption

This website uses SSL/TLS encryption for security reasons. You can recognise an encrypted connection when the address bar switches from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.

10. Your Rights

You have the right at any time to request information (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16 GDPR), erasure (Art. 17 GDPR), restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR), data portability (Art. 20 GDPR), and to object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority.
