Short version
We don’t track you. We don’t set cookies. We don’t sell data. We want you to learn about Bitcoin, not become the product.
Hosting
This website is served via Cloudflare Pages (Cloudflare Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). When you visit the site, connection data (e.g. IP address, access time, browser type) is transmitted to Cloudflare for technical reasons. This is required to deliver the website. Processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in the secure and efficient provision of the website). Cloudflare is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.

Web analytics
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics. This tool runs server-side, sets no cookies, stores no IP addresses, and creates no user profiles. Only aggregated, anonymous access data is collected (e.g. page views, country of origin, referrer). Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Cookies
None. Zero. Null.
Contact by email
When you contact us by email, we process your message and the data it contains (name, email address, content) to handle your inquiry. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or Art. 6(1)(b) for contract-related inquiries.
Our email service runs on Google Workspace (Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). Google is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Emails are processed and stored on Google servers. More information: policies.google.com/privacy
Newsletter
We operate our own newsletter system. Your signup data (email address) is stored exclusively on our own server and not shared with third parties. Signup is voluntary, based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent). You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in the newsletter or by emailing [email protected].
YouTube videos
Some pages embed YouTube videos (Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). Videos load only when you click “Load video”. No connection to Google is made before that, and no data is transmitted. We also use YouTube’s enhanced privacy mode (youtube-nocookie.com), which YouTube states does not set personalization cookies. Once you load a video, technical data such as your IP address and browser info is transmitted to YouTube/Google. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent). You may withdraw your consent at any time by reloading the page. Google is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. More information: policies.google.com/privacy
Donations
Bitcoin donations are processed via a self-hosted server. We do not collect or store any personal data in this process.
Your rights
You have the right of access, the right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and the right to object. For any concerns, write to [email protected]. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Austrian Data Protection Authority (dsb.gv.at).
Changes
We update this privacy policy when changes occur. The current version applies from the date of publication on this website.
