Privacy Policy
This notice explains, in clear and plain language (GDPR Art. 12), how we process personal data on this website.

2. Purposes & Legal Bases
- Reach measurement & debugging (legitimate interests, Art. 6(1)(f))

3. Cookies & Consent
Without consent, we do not load marketing/analytics scripts or set non-essential cookies. You can change your choice any time via “Cookie settings”. Your consent choice is stored locally (strictly necessary) so we can honour it on future visits.
4. Analytics
We use Umami, a privacy-first, self-hosted web analytics tool running on our own infrastructure at citizify.de (servers in Germany/EU). It is cookieless, collects only aggregated, anonymised usage data (pages viewed, approximate region, device type, referrer, and events such as affiliate-link clicks and scroll depth), shares no data with third parties, and respects your browser's “Do Not Track” setting. The Umami script is loaded only after you grant analytics consent. We additionally use Google Analytics, which loads only with consent.
5. Recipients/Processors
- Vercel Inc. – hosting (US/EU)
- Umami (self-hosted at citizify.de) – privacy-first analytics, no third-party sharing (EU)
- Google LLC – ads/analytics (EEA users only with consent)
6. International Transfers
Where applicable, transfers rely on SCCs (EU 2021/914) with supplementary measures.
7. Retention
Server logs typically 30–90 days; cookies per consent settings.
8. Your Rights
