Legal information

Privacy Policy

On this page I inform you which personal data is processed when you visit my website, for which purposes this is done and which rights you have under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1. Controller

The controller responsible for processing your personal data in connection with this website is:

InPerspective – Psychosocial support, coaching & counselling
Elena Jurgeleit
Sugambrerstraße 11
59192 Bergkamen
Email: info@inperspective-coaching.de

2. General information on data processing

I process personal data exclusively within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). Personal data means all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

The use of this website is generally possible without providing personal data. If personal data (for example your name, email address or phone number) is collected on my pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis where possible.

3. Provision of the website and server log files

When you access this website, the provider automatically collects information that your browser transmits. In particular, this includes:

  • IP address (generally stored in abbreviated or anonymised form)
  • Date and time of access
  • Accessed page / name of the requested file
  • Transferred data volume
  • Referrer URL (the page visited before)
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system used

This data is processed in order to ensure the functionality of the website, to guarantee the security of the IT systems (for example to defend against attacks) and for error analysis.

Legal basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in a secure and stable provision of the website).
Storage period: Server log files are usually automatically deleted after a few days, unless a longer retention period is required for security reasons.

4. Contact by email or contact form

If you contact me by email or using the contact form provided on the website, I process the information you provide in order to handle your enquiry and for any follow-up questions.

Data processed may in particular include:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Phone number (optional)
  • Content of your message
  • Any preferred appointment times

Legal basis: Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (steps taken prior to entering into a contract or performance of a contract) or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in answering enquiries).

Storage period: Your data will only be stored for as long as necessary to process your enquiry or as long as statutory retention obligations require.

Please do not send particularly sensitive health data via the contact form or by email. For actual psychosocial support and sensitive topics, I use – where necessary – other, more secure communication channels.

5. No disclosure to third parties / processors

Your personal data will generally not be disclosed to third parties unless:

  • you have expressly consented to this (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR),
  • there is a legal obligation to do so (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR),
  • there is a legitimate interest and no overriding legitimate interests on your part (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR), or
  • the processing takes place within the framework of a data processing agreement pursuant to Article 28 GDPR (e.g. hosting provider).

6. Cookies, tracking and external services

This website currently does not use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics), tracking cookies or social media plugins through which personal data is passed on to third parties.

If services that use cookies or similar technologies are implemented in the future, I will adapt this privacy policy accordingly and – where required – obtain your consent.

7. Data security

I use technical and organisational measures to protect your data against loss, misuse or unauthorised access. This includes, among other things, encrypted transmission (SSL/TLS), which you can recognise by the “https://” in the address bar of your browser.

Please note that data transmission on the internet (for example when communicating by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data from access by third parties is not possible.

8. Your rights as a data subject

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights:

  • Right of access (Article 15 GDPR)
  • Right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR)
  • Right to erasure (Article 17 GDPR)
  • Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR)
  • Right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR)
  • Right to object (Article 21 GDPR)

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, you can contact me at any time using the contact details above.

Withdrawal of consent

Where data processing is based on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future. The lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of consent before its withdrawal remains unaffected.

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data infringes data protection law (Article 77 GDPR).

A competent authority is, for example, the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of North Rhine-Westphalia (www.ldi.nrw.de).

9. Minors

My services are primarily aimed at adults. If minors use my website or contact me, further processing of personal data will only take place with the consent of the legal guardians, where this is required.

10. Updates and changes to this privacy policy

This privacy policy is currently valid and was last updated in November 2025.

Due to the development of this website or due to changes in legal or regulatory requirements, it may become necessary to amend this privacy policy. The current version is always available on this page.

Note: This information does not constitute legal advice, but is intended to provide a transparent overview of data processing on this website.
