Privacy notice
This notice explains how personal data is processed on this website.
1. Data controller
The controller responsible for processing personal data on this website is:
Patrick Deschauer
Am Alten Lothringer Schacht 2
44805 Bochum
Germany
Telephone: +49 234 64066220
Email: partner@grip-racing-sisters.de
2. Accessing the website and hosting
This website is provided through ChatGPT Sites by OpenAI. OpenAI processes data involved in operating the website as a hosting provider under the contractual and data-processing terms applicable to ChatGPT Sites. For customers in the European Economic Area, the OpenAI Data Processing Addendum names OpenAI Ireland Ltd. as the contracting party. OpenAI uses subprocessors to provide the service, including Cloudflare, Ltd. for web hosting and content delivery.
When you visit this website, technically necessary connection and access data is processed. This includes, in particular, your IP address, the time and destination of the request, technical information about your browser and operating system and, where transmitted by your browser, the page visited previously. This data is used to deliver the website, maintain its availability, and detect and investigate errors and attacks.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to provide a reliable and secure website. Recipients are the hosting and infrastructure providers used to deliver the website. We do not operate our own visitor database or create our own personal visitor profiles.
Technical logs are retained for as long as necessary for secure operation, error analysis and the investigation of specific security incidents, and to meet any statutory retention requirements. Once these purposes and any retention obligations no longer apply, personal log data must be deleted or anonymised.
3. Processing outside the European Economic Area
The hosting supply chain may involve processing outside the European Economic Area, in particular in the United States. For such transfers, the OpenAI Data Processing Addendum provides for adequacy decisions of the European Commission or appropriate safeguards, in particular EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Details of these safeguards can be found in that agreement; you may also contact us for a copy or further information.
Further information: OpenAI Data Processing Addendum and OpenAI subprocessor list.
4. Cookies, analytics and external content
Our own website code does not use analytics or advertising trackers. If you choose German or English using the language switch, we store only that choice in your device’s local browser storage under “grs-language”. This lets us restore your chosen language on a later visit to the home page. The choice is not sent to an analytics or advertising service. You can change it by choosing another language, or delete it through your browser’s website-data settings.
The pages do not load external fonts, social-media plugins or embedded videos. Technically necessary processing by the hosting infrastructure is described in section 2. The website currently has no contact form, newsletter or visitor login.
5. Contact by email or telephone
If you contact us, we process the contact details you provide and the contents of your enquiry. For email, this includes your email address and, where provided, your name and the information you send. For telephone calls, this includes the information you share and, where applicable, your telephone number. We process this information to handle and respond to your enquiry.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where the enquiry concerns entering into or performing a contract. For other enquiries, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest is responding to incoming enquiries. Where processing is based on your consent, Article 6(1)(a) GDPR applies.
The email and telecommunications providers we use may process data to facilitate communications. Enquiries are deleted once the matter has been resolved and no statutory retention obligations or legitimate reasons, such as establishing or defending legal claims, require further storage. Providing your information is voluntary. Without a means of contacting you and the information needed for your enquiry, we may be unable to respond.
6. Links to other websites
External links lead to services operated by other providers. Displaying an ordinary link does not cause our website code to load content from those services. If you open an external link, the destination website’s privacy notice applies.
7. Your rights
Subject to the applicable legal requirements, you have in particular the following rights:
- Access to your personal data (Article 15 GDPR),
- Rectification of inaccurate data and completion of incomplete data (Article 16 GDPR),
- Erasure and restriction of processing (Articles 17 and 18 GDPR),
- Data portability where the applicable requirements are met (Article 20 GDPR).
You may withdraw any consent at any time with effect for the future. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
Right to object: Where processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, you may object under Article 21 GDPR on grounds relating to your particular situation. You may object to processing for direct marketing at any time.
To exercise your rights, use the contact details in section 1. We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing that have legal or similarly significant effects, or carry out corresponding profiling.
8. Right to complain
Under Article 77 GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data-protection supervisory authority, in particular in the place of your residence, workplace or the alleged infringement. For our location, the following authority is particularly relevant:
Landesbeauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit Nordrhein-Westfalen
Postfach 20 04 44
40102 Düsseldorf
Germany
Email: poststelle@ldi.nrw.de
Website: www.ldi.nrw.de/kontakt

The website is delivered over an encrypted HTTPS connection. We update this privacy notice when we change functions or services used.
