symphonic metal with strong vocals and epic melodies
Founded in Braunschweig in 2018, DARK LIGHTNING have carved out their own place in the scene with their unique metal combination of symphonic elements and profound, emotional themes. The six-piece’s music, which comes straight from the heart, processes personal struggles and experiences and transforms them into atmospherically dense soundscapes that are both powerful and touching.
We're happy to announce our next show: we'll be playing Open Stage Night at Nordsound Showroom in Oebisfelde on 9th October 2026. Come say hi!

The band Dark Lightning was founded in 2018 in Braunschweig (Germany). In our music, which comes straight from the heart, we process personal struggles and experiences and transform them into atmospherically dense soundscapes that are both powerful and touching.
To celebrate the anniversary of our album, we have released a single named "The Quest For Light". Give it a listen on:

The lyrics to our released songs are compiled below:
You demand command
To subjugate
But impotent
Is your attempt
You laugh at me
My show of mercy
Mistake my kindness
For a weakness
I'll burn your ego to ash
Vanity is your downfall
Your hatred my fuel
Your envy my strength
Your lies make me
invincible
I build a throne
Atop your ash
A throne of bones
A throne of skulls
I feel no sympathy
For a fool
So devoid of
empathy
Cold and clear is my mind
Ready for the final strike
Your hatred my fuel
Your envy my strength
Your lies make me
invincible
I build a throne
Atop your ash
A throne of bones
A throne of skulls
Fill the hole, that which torments you
Let our communion lift you up
Come to us and let us heal these
Wounds cut deep inside your soul
We see you seek relief
The way to escape
Embrace our help
No way leads you out of here
No way will bring you back home
You are trapped forevermore
Chained to their cradle
Never will you escape them
They bound your wings so you'll never
Reach what you now crave the most
A glimpse of freedom
Now that you're a part of us no
Others shall disturb your life
No need to cry, nor to leave our
Love for you shall never die
Now you seek relief
The way to escape
Trapped forever
No way leads you out of here
No way will bring you back home
You are trapped forevermore
Chained to their cradle
Never will you escape them
They bound your wings so you'll never
Reach what you now crave the most
A glimpse of freedom
No way leads you out of here
No way will bring you back home
You are trapped forevermore
Chained to their cradle
Never will you escape them
They bound your wings so you'll never
Reach what you now crave the most
A glimpse of freedom
Go!
Run faster
Don't falter
Don't turn back
Don't turn back
The clock ticks
Don't stand still
Or else they
Drag you down
Deeper down
Won't come back
Caught in a maze stretching out endlessly
The walls are shadows, impenetrable
Laid out like a spider's web
You can feel things crawling, stalking, hungry
They hunt you like prey, they feed on fear
They want your soul, they want your hope
Go!
Run faster
Don't falter
Don't turn back
Don't turn back
The clock ticks
Don't stand still
Or else they
Drag you down
Deeper down
Won't come back
Lost in your own labyrinth
You search for a way out
Hunted, haunted, you feel the monsters
The demons created by your own mind
Gripping and grabbing hands entangled in your hair
Ropes try to bind your limbs, chains
Tied around your chest they want to
Drag you deeper, deeper down the abyss
Spiral down in blackest void, eternal night
Awaits you there all hope is lost
Hope is lost
Poisoned fangs
Fill your veins
With fear
Go!
Run faster
Don't falter
Don't turn back
Don't turn back
The clock ticks
Don't stand still
Or else they
Drag you down
Deeper down
Won't come back
The wind is carrying
A curious melody
A dark silhouette appears
Framed by moonlight
As it takes a step into the night
I hear it speak
Follow my song
Into the darkest night
Dance with me in the pale, dark moon rays
Let me show you
The wonders of my world
Take off with me into the night sky
Though I know that this
Could be my end I'm frozen in
This moment, I am lost
To the ecstasy of this wild ride
Follow my song
Into the darkest night
Dance with me in the pale, dark moonrays
Let me show you
The wonders of my world
Take off with me into the night sky
I see I fly
I lose all gravity
The silhouette
Is my darkest light
It holds me tight
Oh it holds me tight
I lose myself
In its grip
Follow my song
Into the darkest night
Dance with me in the pale, dark moonrays
Let me show you
The wonders of my world
Take off with me into the night sky
Too many times they've come
To use her good heart
Too many times did she submit
And let herself be abused
Too many of them have come
To try and break her
Too many times it left her scarred
Bleeding and full of regret
Too many times
Until she broke
Too many times
Until she froze
Too many times
Until she fell
Until the princess
Finally died
Spikes and needles stung her heart
All warmth bleeding from her soul
Down her face run rivers down
To the empty bed of her emotions
Never again will I
Be used, she swore
Never again shall I submit
My heart is mine forevermore
A great hall carved of ice
Is where she'd keep her
Heart safely locked beneath her throne
Guarded from all suffering
Never again
Would she give in
Never would
she be nice again
Solitary
Would she reign
Secluded
And unreachable
Rime would grow as winter came
Enclose her in a frozen state
A crown of frost grew on her head
She awoke queen of what's dead
There she stands alone
Of tears her throne
The ruler of
Her broken soul
Untouchable she built her reign
Black and cold her heart
Frozen and still
Never again would she be hurt
Deep in her reach, her hall of tears
There she stands alone
Of tears her throne
The ruler of
Her broken soul
Untouchable she built her reign
Black and cold her heart
Frozen and still
Never again would she be hurt
Deep in her reach, her hall of tears
Chains tie me to the ground
A weight holds me back
I yearn for freedom
To throw off all my burdens
Run away to the twinkling lights
Looking down to me with a dare
I gather my strength
Gather my will
Soon I will join them
I lift my hand
Reach for the lights
Far away and yet so close they seem
Push away my fear and doubts
My binds fall off I'm free, I am released
I take off into the sky
Fly high and leave the orbit
Closing the distance to the stars
I take off, my mind is set
I close my eyes, jump off the cliff and
Fly away
I take off into the sky
Fly high and leave the orbit
Closing the distance to the stars
I take off, my mind is set
I close my eyes, jump off the cliff and
Fly away
The weight, oppressive
I feel no more
My true self a burning sun
In the empty vastness of space
I take on all coming storms
All meteors thrown at me
Evaporate on my surface
I lift my hand
Reach for the lights
Far away and yet so close they seem
Push away my fear and doubts
My binds fall off I'm free, I am released
I take off into the sky
Fly high and leave the orbit
Closing the distance to the stars
I take off, my mind is set
I close my eyes, jump off the cliff and
Fly away
I take off into the sky
Fly high and leave the orbit
Closing the distance to the stars
I take off, my mind is set
I close my eyes, jump off the cliff and
Fly so far away
Once there was a lord
Oh he stood alone, oh so alone
He fought to protect
Those who once were vanquished by his kind
Fear and distrust
Formed a cleft no one could ever cross
For he sprang from
The great and dreadful conquerors of old
Once there was a lord
Still he stood alone, all on his own
He was asked to lead
Serving with a just sword and great shield
And to protect a land against its foes
Even though the people despised him
He took upon him
Heeding the call of their request
To be their ruler and brave warrior
Fighting with the force of a giant
Four were the women
Who brought upon the end
Of the land that he'd sworn
To protect - his people all burned to ash
Burned to ash
The profaned flame
It fell from the sky
He had to put it to rest
Without regard for his own life he sacrificed himself
Sacrificed
Once there was a lord
Who lost someone so dear to him, so dear
He cast aside his shield
Only his lonely blade ever remained
With his shield he threw
The pain was too much to carry
Away his wish to preserve his own life
No one worthy was left to protect
His end began
Caused by an oracle's descendants
When a curse brought down fire from the sky
Naught but human flesh it burned
The flame consumed him
Yet he refused to die
There was still one task
One final duty left for him to fulfill
To fulfill
He sought his throne
Between the corpses
In this city now profaned
Waiting for his end to finally come
End to come
Look to the center of nowhere
Behold the ocean you will find there
A sea with pounding waves
A maelstrom of nightmares
Look to the edge of nowhere
No land is to be seen
On a horizon with shifting storm clouds
Slowly approaching me
The storm is calling
The sea is shouting my name
Don't search for me, deep in the sea
The cold and harsh it comforts me
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
I'll die alone, I'll drown alone
Don't search for me, deep in the sea
Solitude gives me solace
Floating in nothingness
I am content in the dark of the deep
The creatures lurking here
They are my kind I'm one of them
A kingdom for the drowned souls
That seek out loneliness
No fear of breathing the water, we're
One with the cold and hostile
I'm in the center of nowhere
I don't look for the dry land
I need no one to save me
I only need to drown
Don't search for me, deep in the sea
The cold and harsh it comforts me
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
I'll die alone, I'll drown alone
Don't search for me, deep in the sea
Solitude gives me solace
The storm is calling
The sea is shouting
Don't search for me, deep in the sea
The cold and harsh, it comforts me
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
I'll die alone, I'll drown alone
Don't search for me, deep in the sea
Solitude gives me solace
I unleash my darkness
Years of violence were my teacher
I blame my pain on others
Never look within myself
Don't search for a cure because
I love the way the world hates me
Condemned to spread my sickness
I shoot daggers with every word
I love the way the world hates me
Condemned to spread my sickness
I blame my pain on others
The rays of sunlight never touch me
No place my home, no one to call my friend
In the shadows I walk forever
When I go don't cry for me
A fallen angel I've been since my birth
I was born without a heart
I spread my wings and I cast my shadow
My name is corruption and ruin my sign
I spread my wings and cast my shadow
My name corruption and ruin my sign
The rays of sunlight never touch me
No place my home, no one to call my friend
In the shadows I walk forever
When I go don't cry for me
A fallen angel I've been since my birth
I was born without a heart
I spread my wings and I cast my shadow
My name is corruption and ruin my sign
I spread my wings and cast my shadow
A fallen angel I've been since my birth
I was born without a heart
I spread my wings and I cast my shadow
My name is corruption and ruin my sign
A fallen angel I've been since my birth
I was born without a heart
I spread my wings and I cast my shadow
My name is corruption and ruin my sign
Better watch out or it rips your throat out
Better watch out or your blood will be drained
Claws of rot will infect your brain
Your vision black, reality distorted
See the pure white dress
Oh so beautiful
See the white dress
Smell the pureness
Oh the beauty, oh the light
Feel the soft skin
A voice like spider's silk
Feel the soft skin
Hair like flowing water
Voice like spider's silk
Watch your back
The beast
Is out for blood
Give up your soul
Give up your dreams
A cage of torment
Is now your home
Addicted to the beauty
Of the beast beg or run
There is no mercy left for you
Accept your fate
Better watch out or it rips your throat out
Better watch out or your blood will be drained
Claws of rot will infect your brain
Your vision black, reality distorted
Eyes so hungry
Delicate the fingers grip
Eyes so hungry
Lips so lustful
Delicate the fingers grip
A viper's bite
Rose petals blossom in snow
A viper's bite
You're paralyzed
Rose petals blossom in snow
Watch your back
The beast
Is out for blood
Give up your soul
Give up your dreams
A cage of torment
Is now your home
Addicted to the beauty
Of the beast beg or run
There is no mercy left for you
Accept your fate
A panther in a kittens dress
Trip and watch your heart get eaten
Twisted mind, decaying soul
Ugly and toxic her true face
Give up your soul
Give up your dreams
A cage of torment
Is now your home
Addicted to the beauty
Of the beast beg or run
There is no mercy left for you
Accept your fate
Better watch out or it rips your throat out
Better watch out or your blood will be drained
Claws of rot will infect your brain
Your vision black, reality distorted
Better watch out or it rips your throat out
Better watch out or your blood will be drained
Claws of rot will infect your brain
Your vision black
We stumble in darkness
Our eyes blindfolded
Our ears are deaf and we can't find
The thing we crave the most
A spark, a light
Something to guide us through
This labyrinth
To help us solve
The riddle of existence
Never will we back down
We will never give up
We'll find our path
In darkest night
Powered by the force of will
Nothing stays in our way
We'll reach our goal, no matter what
We are unstoppable
We always craved to know
Since the dawn of time
To examine, investigate
To dissect and probe
Never will we back down
We will never give up
We'll find our path
In darkest night
We search and search
Go on and on
No end in sight
Our quest for light
Where do we come from
Where do we go
It grinds our minds
Where's the sense behind it all
The purpose of life
Will we find it?
We search and search
Go on and on
No end in sight
Our quest for light
On and on
My darkness
My silence
My torment
Forever
Our sickness
Our downfall
The demons
We create
Crawl, stumble, fall in darkness
No end and no beginning
Endlessness keeps closing in
The chaos tries to suffocate me
Crawl, Stumble, Fall in darkness
No end and no beginning
Endlessness keeps closing in
The chaos tries to suffocate me
Mist covered and still
A desert, flat,
lies before me
No horizon
Neither day nor night
An endless twilight
Phantasmic shapes
Dance in rays of light
A call, a lure
With piercing eyes
Drawing me in
They see through me
Paralyze me
Shadows claw at me
I scream in silence, unheard
Anguish fills my every cell
The eyes have caught me
Reality's a knife of ice
The scars of which will never heal
Forcing the truth on me
Suffocated by corruption
The spark of hope it shines no more
This world is forsaken
Innocence left powerless
Good souls abused and turned
When became ignorance normality?
I want to scream
Want to break free
The eyes pull at my binds
Desperate I reach for the mist
But too strong my gaolers are
My mind gives in to madness
Reality's a knife of ice
The scars of which will never heal
Forcing the truth on me
Suffocated by corruption
The spark of hope it shines no more
This world is forsaken
Cruel
The chaos that I see
Violent and disturbing
Spreads
In endless waves
Becomes a spiral down to hell
See the world
Glorify cruelty
And sanctify deceitfulness
They throw away humanity
And live in dreams
In golden lies to shut their eyes
No remorse and
No forgiveness
These are the demons
You created
No remorse
And no forgiveness
We are the demons
You created
My darkness
My silence
My torment
Forever
Our sickness
Our downfall
The demons
We create
My darkness
My silence
My torment
Forever
Our sickness
Our downfall
The demons
We create
Our longing
Our hope and
Our dreams
Forever shattered
My refuge
Contentment
Just out of reach
It's hiding
In shadows deep, where silence reigns
I've walked the path of endless pains
The light I sought, forever lost
Now bound in chains, I pay the cost
No hope remains, no fight to give
The darkness claims the life I live
I am the void, the hollow cry
Falling into eternal night
In this abyss, my demons win
I close my eyes, and let them in
He made the first man and wife
From the dust from the earth
Equal they shall be
What he shall dislike
Made from dust and clay
Equal in their pride
But in his growing selfishness
She won't bow and lay down
Since he created them out of dust
First man and his wife she insisted on her given right
Regardless she knows for sure
Achieve equality was impossible in his growing greed
Treated as a wanton trull
Yet she wants to be his dear
He won't ever honor her
There's nothing she could do
He saw her as his very own
Always let her be his lay
She cannot become his wife
He disrespects her life
And in her grief and despair
She stepped forward to god
And spoke his inexpressible name
Jod Hej Wof Hej
That she became so powerful
That wings sprouted from her
And she flew away
Since he created them out of dust
First man and his wife she insisted on her given right
Regardless she knows for sure
Achieve equality was impossible in his growing greed
What will she do now
Even God won't help her
Desperate she turned away
And left the world behind
Three angels could not change her mind
There was no way to bring her back
She was afflicted by gods curse
And banished from this world
Since he created them out of dust
First man and his wife she insisted on her given right
Regardless she knows for sure
Achieve equality was impossible in his growing greed
Since he created them out of dust
First man and his wife she insisted on her given right
Regardless she knows for sure
Achieve equality was impossible in his growing greed
Since he created them out of dust
First man and his wife she insisted on her given right
Regardless she knows for sure
Achieve equality was impossible in his growing greed
We are the demons who break out of hell
Just to bring their foul teachings to an end
Our dark lightning will come over them
Now we spread the path of the left hand
An army of angels comes from the heavens
We ought to kill them, destroy their light
We end the reign of Gods foul wisdom
We will bring them the first black white war
Rip off their wings
Raping their souls
Cut off their heads
Let the blood splash
Life leaks from their veins until they fall
Lifelessly they collapse to the ground
An Army of angels comes from the heavens
We ought to kill them, to destroy their light
We end the reign of Gods foul wisdom
We will bring them the first black white war
We will extinguish their entire feeble horde
Show them no mercy, we will kill them all
Their cries will fade in the howl of the wind
As we finally fight for our revenge
An Army of angels comes from the heavens
We ought to kill them, to destroy their light
We end the reign of Gods foul wisdom
We will bring them the first black white war
In some nights we get haunted
By dreadful dreams of vile creatures
And we ask ourselves:
Are they really just a dream, or do they exist
On the brink of our reality
We rise from the darkness
Born from the ashes
Of fires that died
When fear swallowed hope
We creep in the shadows
We howl to a dark moon
In twighlight we whisper
Put spells on your sleep
We are the creatures of the night
We came to take your blood tonight
We are the creatures of the night
So fear us when we rise
We drink from your tears
Grow strong as we shatter
The light that you clung to
Fall into the void
Webs we have spun there
Eternally trap you
Gut your mind with sharp claws
And feast on your cries
We are the creatures of the night
We came to take your blood tonight
We are the creatures of the night
So fear us when we rise
We are the creatures of the night
We came to take your blood tonight
We are the creatures of the night
So fear us when we rise
Screeching and scratching inside my brain
What is this feeling growing inside
Thoughts of torment blood stains the walls
I try to resist the monster comes out of me
Heat melts my ice now that I’m free
My twisted reality falls upon you
I can’t wait to burn all your dreams
The face of death your last breath is mine
I am a flame a spark of the dark
A fire that burns in your veins in your heart
You hear me whisper dare heeding my call
Follow my trail find the dark of your soul
My hunger grows with the smell of your fear
Your heart’s in my claws but suddenly I see
Shivering now I realize the truth
Your face my reflection blood on my chest you’re me
Blood is dripping life leaves my veins
On six wings I fall my world turns to black
Eternal punishment waiting for me
No chance to turn back my entry to heaven denied
I am a flame a spark of the dark
A fire that burns in your veins in your heart
You hear me whisper dare heeding my call
Follow my trail find the dark of your soul
Come here my children gather around me
Hear my words they might save your lifes
One or two may have heard of them before
Beautiful creatures made of light
But deep inside them
Frost is burning
Cold as ice
If you see them run for your lifes
Hide in the shadows don’t try to fight
Their light would easily crush you
Turn you to dust
Do you hear them my children the mighty wings
Feathery shining so bright
They come down from heaven elegant and grazile
Their golden eyes glist’ning like Stars
But don’t you fall
Into this trap
Mercy they don’t know
If you see them run for your lifes
Hide in the shadows don’t try to fight
Their light would easily crush you
Turn you to dust
If you see them run for your lifes
Hide in the shadows don’t try to fight
Their light would easily crush you
Turn you to dust
Cities burning
Children crying
No more safe places to find
Air polluted water poisoned
Every species fights to live
Snow starts to fall
Clouds won't break no more
No rays of sunlight reach us now
Fields are wastelands crops all dying
The earth is getting rid of us
Father help us understand
This hell that we don’t want no more
Save now our earth for that
This world then shall be good again
This is the end
Soon we all will die
From the hunger and the plagues
Who can help us where's our redeemer
We beg for one to save our lifes
We gather here
To pray as one for then
Maybe you will hear us out
What is this - A light appears so bright
Like spears it cuts through our eyes
The father in anger
Looks down to the earth
Its beauty now devastated
He sends his army of angels down
To save this world from humankind
Father help us understand
This hell that we don’t want no more
Save now our earth for that
This world then shall be good again
Father how should we have known
The consequence of our deeds
Does a mere bug see the great
Fabrics of reality
Seht im Himmel die Engel
so schön und so arrogant
Hochnäsig schauen sie herab
aus ihrer Festung aus Glas
Beten an ihre Sonne
So grell ist sie und heiß
Reine Folter die Glut
Sie schmilzt unser Eis
Zwei Völker verfeindet vergessen ist längst
Wie es begann nur Legenden aus Hass
Sind noch geblieben
Folgen wird Krieg
Folgen wird Krieg
Seht die Dämonen der Hölle
Finster sind sie und schlecht
Zerstörung ist ihr Plan
Enden wird er in Chaos
Verschreiben sich dem Dunkel
Finster wie die Nacht
Quälen die Seelen der Toten
Habt immer Obacht
Nun wetzt die scharfen Klauen
Ihr vielen Kinder der Nacht
Und wenn sie euch dann holen
Wird das Licht umgebracht
Schwingt nun eure Flügel
Kommt ihr Krieger des Lichts
Mit allen mächtigen Waffen
Vernichten wir das Nichts
Zwei Völker verfeindet vergessen ist längst
Wie es begann nur Legenden aus Hass
Sind noch geblieben
Folgen wird Krieg
Folgen wird Krieg
Zwei Völker verfeindet vergessen ist längst
Wie es begann nur Legenden aus Hass
Sind noch geblieben
Nun gibt es Krieg
Nun gibt es Krieg

The following notices provide a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit this website. Personal data is any data that can be used to personally identify you. Detailed information on the subject of data protection can be found in our privacy policy set out below this text.
Who is responsible for data collection on this website?
Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. You are welcome to contact us via the contact form.
How do we collect your data?
Your data is collected, on the one hand, from information you provide to us. This may, for example, be data you enter into a contact form.
Other data is collected automatically by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is primarily technical data (e.g. internet browser, operating system, or time of page access). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter this website.
What do we use your data for?
The data is collected to ensure the website is provided free of errors and to evaluate its use in anonymized form. There is no personally identifiable, cross-device tracking, and no tracking cookies are set.
What rights do you have regarding your data?
You have the right at any time to receive free information about the origin, recipient, and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have the right to request the correction or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time regarding this matter as well as any further questions on the subject of data protection.
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
When you use this website, various pieces of personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.
We would like to point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating via a contact form) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke any consent you have already given at any time. An informal notification by contact form to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out up until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as contact requests you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock icon in your browser line.
If SSL/TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time regarding this matter as well as any further questions on the subject of personal data at the address given in the legal notice.
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, we will store the information you provide in the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not pass this data on without your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR, provided your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR), if this was requested.
The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have finished processing your inquiry). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
This data is not combined with other data sources.
The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of their website – for this, the server log files must be collected.
This website does not currently use cookies.
This website uses the web analytics service GoatCounter (operator: Martin Tournoij, the Netherlands, www.goatcounter.com) to obtain statistical information about the use of the website (e.g. number of page views, pages visited, device/operating system used, and rough geographic origin based on IP address). GoatCounter does not set cookies and does not create cross-device user profiles. GoatCounter does not permanently store the IP address. No personally identifiable evaluation takes place; the data is evaluated exclusively in anonymized and aggregated form.
Processing is based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR) in the needs-based design and continuous optimization of our website. Since no cookies are set and no device-related identifiers are stored, no consent is required under § 25 TTDSG (German Telecommunications-Telemedia Data Protection Act).
If you would like to sign up for our newsletter, we require an email address from you, as well as confirmation via a double opt-in process. We use this data exclusively to send the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties without your consent.
Sign-up is handled technically via the service Brevo (Brevo SAS, France, www.brevo.com). When the sign-up form is loaded, fonts and scripts are loaded from Brevo's servers; in doing so, Brevo may process technical data (e.g. IP address). Your email address is also stored with Brevo to manage the newsletter distribution list. Processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR), which you may revoke at any time with future effect via the unsubscribe link in every newsletter. For further information, see Brevo's privacy policy.
