Privacy
The operator of this connectivity check takes the protection of your personal data very seriously. I treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
It is generally possible to use the connectivity check without providing personal data. I never collect personal data (e.g. name, address or e-mail addresses) using the connectivity check.
I would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

I use the “Cloudflare” service provided by Cloudflare Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. (hereinafter referred to as “Cloudflare”).
Cloudflare offers a content delivery network with DNS that is available worldwide. As a result, the information transfer that occurs between your browser and our website is technically routed via Cloudflare’s network. This enables Cloudflare to analyze data transactions between your browser and our website and to work as a filter between our servers and potentially malicious data traffic from the Internet. In this context, Cloudflare may also use cookies or other technologies deployed to recognize Internet users, which shall, however, only be used for the herein described purpose.
The use of Cloudflare is based on my legitimate interest in a provision of our service offerings that is as error free and secure as possible (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

SSL Encryption
This site and the connectivity check uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
When this site is used headless ensure to add the https prefix manually!
If SSL encryption is activated, the request you send cannot be read by third parties.
Server-LogFiles
The connectivity check service does not log any request information.
