Landesamt für Digitalisierung, Breitband und Vermessung
IT-Dienstleistungszentrum des Freistaats Bayern
St.-Martin-Straße

Recording

When you call up this or other Internet sites, you pass on data to the web server via your Internet browser. The following data are recorded during an active connection for communication between your Internet browser and the web server of the Bavarian Palace Administration:

  • Date and time of access

  • Name of the file requested

  • Page from which the file was requested

  • Access status (file transferred, file not found, etc)

  • Web browser and operating system used

  • Complete IP address of the computer requesting the file

  • Quantity of data requested

For reasons of technical security, in particular for countering attempted hacking on the web server, these data are stored by us. After seven days at the latest, the data are anonymized at domain level by abbreviation of the IP address, so that it is no longer possible to link them with individual users. These data are forwarded for information security purposes in accordance with article 12 of the Bavarian E-Government Law (Bayerisches E-Government Gesetz) to the State Office for Information Security.

Cookies

When you access this Internet site, cookies (small files) with a maximum validity of one year are stored on your hard disk. They serve solely to identify you during your visit to the Internet pages of the Bavarian Palace Administration. Most browsers are set up to accept the use of cookies, but you can set your Internet browser to cancel this function during the session in question or on a permanent basis.

Active components

Active components such as Javascript, Java applets or ActiveX controls may be used in the information provided by the Bavarian Palace Administration. You can set your Internet browser to cancel this function.

Matomo web analytics tool

In order to ensure our website meets user demands, we use the Matomo web analytics tool for evaluating user behaviour. However, your consent is required for this (opt-in). You can change or revoke your selection at any time. After your consent, your IP address is first anonymised and only then evaluated by us. This function can be changed in the cookie banner or switched off by you through the setting of your internet browser.

Incorporation of maps from the BayernAtlas

Maps from the BayernAtlas (Bavarian Atlas) of the State Office for Digitalization, Broadband and Measurements are integrated into our website. When you first call up the website, only dummy images are inserted, so that no data is passed on to the operator.

Data is only transmitted to the operator (including the Internet address of the actual page and the IP address of the user) during your actual and every future visit to the website once you have consented to opt in by clicking on ‘Karte einblenden (Display map)’. You can thus decide for yourself whether to activate this offer and consent to the data transfer. To save the option you have chosen, we use a cookie to store the parameters. This however contains only anonymized data for the customization of the browser and no personal data is stored in the process.

Once you have given your consent, the State Office for Digitalization, Broadband and Measurements will use your data to give you access to BayernAtlas. The data protection information of the State Office for Digitalization, Broadband and Measurements concerning the BayernAtlas can be found at geoportal.bayern.de.

Collection of further data

Personal or business data (e.g. name, addresses, e-mail addresses) can be entered on the Bavarian Palace Administration’s site. Any personal information that we receive is used only for sending requested publications or information and is not passed on to third parties. The use of the services is entirely voluntary.

The e-mail addresses for the mailing of the newsletter are stored and used only for this purpose. The newsletter can be cancelled at any time and your e-mail address will then be immediately deleted.

All personal data that we process within the framework of this website is processed by us or our service provider. The registered office of our service provider is in Germany. We have carefully selected this service provider and concluded an order processing agreement with it.

Electronic post (e-mail)

Information that you send unencrypted by electronic post (e-mail) to the Bavarian Palace Administration may be read en route by third parties. The Bavarian Palace Administration cannot usually check your identity and does not know whose e-mail address it is. Legally secure communication by simple e-mail is thus not guaranteed. Like many e-mail servers, the Bavarian Palace Administration uses filters to block unwanted advertising (‘spam filters’) which in isolated cases also wrongly identify normal e-mails as unwanted advertising and delete them. We always automatically delete e-mails with malicious programmes (‘viruses’).

If you want to send us an e-mail with confidential content, we recommend that you encrypt it and sign it to prevent it from being seen by unauthorized persons and falsified en route, or that you use the conventional postal services.

Encrypted e-mails can be sent to us via S/MIME. Send these to the following e-mail address: poststelle@bsv.bayern.de. The certificates of the Bavarian Administration can be found in the central LDAP directory of the Bavarian authority network at ‘directory.bayern.de’. Further information about the Bavarian Administration PKI can be found on the following website: www.pki.bayern.de

Please also inform us whether and by what means the Bavarian Palace Administration can reply to you with an encrypted e-mail and whether – should this not be possible – you would accept an unencrypted e-mail. If you are unable to receive encrypted e-mails, please give us your postal address for a reply to your confidential communication.
