2. Privacy policy (GDPR & TDDDG compliant)
We take the protection of your personal data very seriously and treat it confidentially in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, in particular Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and the German TDDDG. This privacy policy applies to the website www.i-f-n.eu and informs you pursuant to Art. 13 GDPR about the nature, scope and purpose of the processing of personal data.
2.1 Controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:
Franz Köppl
Bahnhofstrasse 52, 85604 Zorneding
Phone: +49 179 1316541
Email: info@ifn.eu
The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (Art. 4(7) GDPR).
2.2 General information on data processing
We process the personal data of users only to the extent necessary to provide a functioning website and our content and services. Processing takes place only on the basis of a legal permission or with the user’s consent (Art. 6 GDPR). Data are deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for storing them no longer applies, unless longer retention is required by law.
2.3 Server log files
The hosting provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in server log files that your browser transmits automatically. These include:
Browser type and version · operating system · referrer URL · hostname of the accessing computer · time of the server request · IP address (anonymised or full, depending on configuration)
These data are not merged with other data sources. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in the technically error-free and optimised display of the website). Data are deleted after a maximum of 7 days.
2.4 Cookies and cookie consent (§ 25 TDDDG)
Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your end device. They enable, among other things, the browser to be recognised on a subsequent visit.
Important notice pursuant to TDDDG (in force from 14 May 2024): Setting cookies that are not technically necessary (e.g. analytics or marketing cookies) is only permitted with your explicit consent, which we collect via our cookie banner. You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future.
Technically necessary cookies (e.g. WordPress session cookies) are set without consent — legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in conjunction with § 25(2) TDDDG.
Non-essential cookies are set only after your consent — legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with § 25(1) TDDDG.
You can set your browser to inform you when cookies are set and to allow them only on a case-by-case basis. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.
2.5 Contact form and email contact
If you send us enquiries via the contact form or by email, the data you provide — including the contact details you have given — will be stored for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in case of follow-up questions.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures) or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to your enquiry). Data are deleted once your enquiry has been fully dealt with, provided no statutory retention obligations apply.
2.6 Social media plugins (Facebook / Meta)
Our website may incorporate plugins from the social network Facebook (Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland). When you access a page containing such a plugin, a direct connection is established between your browser and Facebook’s servers — data are thereby transmitted to Facebook.
Consent notice: Facebook plugins are only activated following your explicit consent via our cookie banner (legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR in conjunction with § 25(1) TDDDG). Without your consent, no plugin connections are established (two-click solution).
If you have a Facebook account and are logged in, Facebook may link the connection to your account. To prevent this, log out of your Facebook account before visiting our website or use the opt-out option in the cookie banner.
Facebook’s privacy policy: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/
Data may be transferred to the USA. Facebook holds certification under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework (Art. 45 GDPR).
2.7 Hosting

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in the reliable, secure and efficient provision of our online offering).
