Privacy Policy

1. Controller

The party responsible for data processing on this website is:
Jonas Arns, Flurstraße 22, 41065 Mönchengladbach, Germany
Email: contact@jonasarns.com

2. Hosting and Server Log Files

When you visit this website, our hosting provider automatically collects information in so-called server log files that your browser transmits (e.g. IP address, date and time of the request, page requested, browser used). This data is used for the technical provision and security of the website and is not merged with other data sources. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in the secure and functional operation of the website).

3. Embedded Content from Wikimedia Commons

The painting images shown on this website originate from Wikimedia Commons. The image files are served by this server rather than loaded directly from Wikimedia, so visiting a painting page does not create a direct connection to Wikimedia's servers. Links to the original image source on Wikimedia Commons lead to an external website when clicked, over whose data processing we have no control.

4. GetYourGuide (Affiliate Partner)

This website embeds an analytics script from the affiliate partner GetYourGuide GmbH on every page, in order to track the effectiveness of affiliate links to museum tickets. In the process, data such as IP address, browser type, and your usage behavior on this website may be transmitted to and processed by GetYourGuide. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in tracking and being compensated for referred bookings). For more information on data processing by GetYourGuide, please see their own privacy policy.

5. Other Affiliate Links

Individual pages also contain affiliate links to museum tickets or fine art prints (e.g. through our print partner, EuroPosters). Clicking such a link takes you to the respective provider's website, over whose data processing we have no control. That provider's own privacy policy applies.

6. No Cookies for Tracking or Analytics

This website itself does not set any analytics or tracking cookies. A technically necessary cookie is used exclusively in the internal administration area to recognize a logged-in session; it concerns only the site operator, not visitors to the public pages.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to access, rectify, erase, and restrict the processing of your personal data, as well as a right to data portability and to object, each subject to the applicable legal requirements. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. Please feel free to contact us at the address given above.

8. Disclaimer for Content

The information about paintings, artists, museums, and historical context provided on this website has been compiled with care, in part automatically from external sources such as Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons. However, no guarantee is given as to the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of this content. It may contain errors. Liability for damages arising from the use or non-use of the information provided is excluded, except in cases of intent or gross negligence.
