General Information and Mandatory Notices

Name and Contact of the Data Controller

The entity responsible for the processing of personal data on this website is:

The Mind Gap
Maria Kennedy
Leonberger Str. 31/1
71638 Ludwigsburg, Germany

The data controller determines, alone or jointly with others, the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, contact details, etc.).

Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing

Some forms of data processing are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke any consent already given at any time. For the revocation, an informal notification via email is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority

If there is a breach of data protection laws, you, as the affected individual, have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority. The supervisory authority for data protection matters in Germany is the data protection officer of the federal state where our company is headquartered. A list of data protection officers and their contact information can be found here: Data Protection Supervisors.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to request data that we process automatically based on your consent or to fulfill a contract to be handed over to you or to a third party. The data will be provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another data controller, this will only be done as far as it is technically feasible.

Right to Information, Correction, Blocking, Deletion

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to obtain information about your stored personal data, its origin, recipients, and the purpose of data processing at any time, free of charge. You also have the right to request correction, blocking, or deletion of your data. For these purposes and for further questions about personal data, you can contact us at the address provided in the Legal Notice.

SSL or TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. Encrypted connections can be recognized by the “https://” prefix in the address bar of your browser and the padlock icon in your browser bar.

Data Collection

Server Log Files

The website provider automatically collects and stores information in server log files that your browser transmits to us. These include:

Visited page on our domain
Date and time of the server request
Browser type and version
Operating system used
Referrer URL
Hostname of the accessing computer

These data are not combined with other data sources. The basis for this data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which allows processing for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact Form

Data transmitted via the contact form, including your contact details, are stored to process your request or to be available for follow-up questions. These data are not shared without your consent.
Processing of the data entered in the contact form takes place exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke your consent at any time. An informal email notification is sufficient. The legality of data processing carried out before revocation remains unaffected.
