2. Hosting

This website is hosted by Vercel Inc., 440 N Barranca Ave #4133, Covina, CA 91723, USA. When you visit the website, Vercel processes technically necessary data such as your IP address, date and time, the page requested, the referrer and browser information (server log files) in order to deliver the website and protect it against misuse. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in secure and stable operation). We have concluded a data processing agreement with Vercel; transfers of data to the USA are based on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

3. Cookies

This website does not set any cookies for analytics or advertising purposes.

4. Website test

When you submit a website for testing, we store the name you enter, the URL, the selected device (mobile/desktop) and, optionally, your email address in order to provide the service. The tested URL is sent to the Google PageSpeed Insights API for analysis; Google's privacy policy also applies.

5. Public leaderboard

The name, URL and scores of submitted websites are shown publicly on the leaderboard. If you do not want this, contact us and we will remove the entry.

6. PageSpeed Plus and payments

For the "PageSpeed Plus" subscription, we process your email address and your website's badge key in order to provide daily checks and email alerts. Payments are processed by Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Dublin 2, Ireland); the data required for the payment is transmitted to Stripe. If you choose to pay with EUROPAN balance, your email address and PIN are transmitted to the EUROPAN balance system (noble-limited.com) to check and debit your balance. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

7. Email

If you write to us by email, we process the information you provide (e.g. name, email address, message) in order to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your enquiry relates to a contract, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer needed and no statutory retention obligations apply. Emails (e.g. confirmations and score alerts) are sent via Resend (Resend Inc., USA) on the basis of a data processing agreement and the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

8. Newsletter

We use beehiiv (Beehiiv Inc., USA) for our newsletter. When you subscribe, your email address and sign-up data are stored by beehiiv. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time via the unsubscribe link.

9. Visitor counting with PAN21counter

We count page views with our own visitor counter PAN21counter (pan21counter.de). It does not set cookies and does not create user profiles. When a page is requested, a truncated hash value that changes daily is derived from the IP address to avoid counting the same visitor more than once per day; the IP address itself is not stored. Individual page views are deleted after three days; after that, only aggregated daily totals remain. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in simple reach measurement).

10. Fonts

The fonts on this website are loaded locally from our own server. No connection is made to servers of Google or other font providers.

11. Your rights

You have the right of access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and to object to processing based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (Art. 21). You can withdraw any consent you have given at any time with effect for the future. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. Please send your requests to dsgvo@pan21.com.
