Privacy policy

Last updated: July 2026 · Applies exclusively to the website englischsprachigerkindergartenfrankfurt.de

1. Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:

To be checked before going live: if a data protection officer has been appointed, add their contact details here.

2. Hosting

This website is hosted by an external service provider (the host). The personal data recorded when this website is accessed is stored on the host's servers. This essentially concerns the server log files described under section 3.

The host is used in the interest of providing our online offering securely, quickly and reliably. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest).

A data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR has been concluded with the host, ensuring processing in accordance with instructions and data protection law.

Host: Hostinger
To be checked before going live: add the full company name and address of the hosting provider actually used and review the data processing agreement.

3. Server log files

When this website is accessed, the host automatically collects information that your browser transmits. These server log files usually contain:

• the page or file accessed
• the date and time of access
• the volume of data transferred and notification of successful retrieval
• the browser type and version used
• the operating system used
• the referrer URL, i.e. the previously visited page
• the IP address of the requesting device

This data is not merged with other data sources and is used exclusively for technical operation, error analysis and the prevention of attacks. It is not evaluated for marketing purposes and no user profiles are created.

The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the technically error-free and secure operation of this website.

4. Technically necessary data and cookies

This website sets no cookies. Neither technically necessary nor analytical or advertising cookies are used.

In addition, no data is stored in your browser's local storage or session storage. For this reason no cookie banner is deliberately displayed: a consent dialogue would be misleading here, as no technologies requiring consent are in use.

All fonts as well as all images, icons and scripts are delivered exclusively from our own server. No connections to third-party servers arise as a result.

5. SSL / TLS encryption

For security reasons this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address bar of your browser begins with “https://” and a padlock symbol is displayed. When encryption is active, the data you transmit to this website cannot be read by third parties.

6. No forms, no newsletter, no user accounts

This landing page contains no contact form, no newsletter registration, no sign-up, no ordering or payment function and no comment function. Consequently, no personal data entered by you is collected or processed here.

The contact options shown on this page (telephone number and email address) are pure displays or references. If you contact us via one of these channels, your enquiry is processed outside this website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, insofar as your enquiry serves to initiate a contract, otherwise Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

7. External links

This website contains links to the official website of Taunus International Montessori School e.V. at tims-frankfurt.com as well as an optional link to an external map service in the location section.

These links are plain text references. No data whatsoever is transmitted to the linked providers in advance and no third-party content is loaded. Data is only transmitted once you actively click such a link and open the target page.

The respective provider alone is responsible for data processing on the linked pages. The privacy terms of the respective website apply there. For the official TIMS website these can be found at tims-frankfurt.com/privacy-policy.

8. Storage period

Server log files are stored for as long as is necessary for technical operation and security, as a rule for a maximum of 30 days. They are then deleted or anonymised. Longer storage only takes place if this is necessary to investigate a specific security incident or due to statutory retention obligations.

To be checked before going live: compare the actual log file retention period with the hosting provider and enter it here.

9. Legal bases for processing

The processing of personal data on this website is based on the following legal bases:

• Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR – legitimate interest in the secure, stable and functional operation of the website (hosting and server log files)
• Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR – performance of pre-contractual measures, insofar as you contact us via the stated channels regarding a place at the school

10. Your rights as a data subject

Under the GDPR you have the following rights:

• Access to the data processed about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
• Rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data (Art. 16 GDPR)
• Erasure of the data we hold about you (Art. 17 GDPR)
• Restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
• Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
• Objection to processing based on a legitimate interest (Art. 21 GDPR)

An informal message to info@tims-frankfurt.com is sufficient to exercise these rights.

11. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority about the processing of your personal data (Art. 77 GDPR). The competent authority is that of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement.

The authority competent for the controller's registered office is:

12. Data security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction and against access by unauthorised persons. These include in particular the encrypted transmission of page content and the deliberate limitation to a minimum of processed data. Our security measures are continuously reviewed in line with technological developments.

13. Changes to this privacy policy

We adapt this privacy policy as soon as changes to the website make this necessary, for example when new functions are added. If analytics services, maps, forms or embedded third-party content are used in future, this policy must be extended accordingly before they are activated.

This privacy policy describes the actual technical state of this landing page. It does not constitute legal advice and should be reviewed by a lawyer before publication.
