Privacy policy

Last updated: 5 May 2026

1. Controller

The controller for the personal data processed on this website is Frank Stellmacher. See the imprint for the full postal address. Contact via e‑mail: .

2. General notes on processing

We process personal data only insofar as it is necessary to provide a functional website or to answer a specific request. Legal bases are in particular Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre‑contractual / contractual measures) and Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in a secure and functional web presence).

3. Server logs

When you access the website, our hosting provider (1blu AG, Riemenschneiderweg 11, 13407 Berlin, Germany) automatically records technical information transmitted by your browser:

  • IP address
  • Date and time of the request
  • URL requested and amount of data transmitted
  • HTTP status code
  • Referrer URL and user‑agent

These data are stored in the host's server log files. We do not merge them with any other data sources. Legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; the legitimate interest is the secure and stable operation of the website. The retention period is governed by the host and is typically short (a few days to weeks).

4. Cookies, tracking, analytics

This website does not use cookies, tracking or analytics. No external fonts, map services or advertising networks are loaded.

5. Contact form and e‑mail

When you use the contact form, the fields you submit (name, e‑mail, subject, message and the privacy acknowledgement) are processed solely to handle your request.

Legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for pre‑contractual or contractual requests, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in answering your request). Data is retained only as long as needed to deal with the matter and is then deleted unless statutory retention obligations apply.

Transmission is encrypted via TLS. As anti‑spam protection, the form uses an invisible honeypot field and a small math challenge. Neither the sender's IP address nor additional metadata are stored beyond what is technically necessary for sending and the host's spam filtering.

6. External services

GitHub Releases

On the Downloads and Changelog pages your browser calls the GitHub API (api.github.com) directly to fetch the latest release data. Your IP address is transmitted to GitHub in this process. Provider is GitHub, Inc., 88 Colin P Kelly Jr St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. GitHub relies, among other safeguards, on the EU‑US Data Privacy Framework for transfers to the US. Privacy information: docs.github.com/site-policy/….

External links

The website links to external pages (e.g. GitHub repositories, AUR, Cachix). We have no influence on how those services handle data; their respective privacy policies apply.

7. Recipients and processors

The website is hosted by 1blu AG, Riemenschneiderweg 11, 13407 Berlin, Germany. A data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR is in place with 1blu AG. Beyond the activities described in this policy, no transfer of data to third parties takes place.

8. Your rights

You have the right at any time to:

  • Access the data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
  • Rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
  • Erasure of your data (Art. 17 GDPR)
  • Restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
  • Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
  • Object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)

An informal note to the address listed in the imprint is enough to exercise these rights.

9. Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority about our processing of your personal data. The competent authority is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of North Rhine‑Westphalia (LDI NRW), Kavalleriestr. 2–4, 40213 Düsseldorf, Germany (www.ldi.nrw.de).

10. Changes to this policy

We update this policy when website features or the legal situation change. The current version is always available on this page.
