What we collect and why

We process two categories of personal data: data you actively provide (e.g. via the contact form) and data automatically transmitted by your browser when you load a page (e.g. IP address, user agent, request timestamp).

Legal basis

We process data on the following legal bases under Art. 6 (1) GDPR: with your consent (lit. a), to perform a contract or take pre-contractual steps (lit. b), to comply with legal obligations (lit. c), and to safeguard our legitimate interests in operating a secure, functional website (lit. f).

Cookies

This site does not set marketing or analytics cookies. Strictly necessary cookies may be used to remember your language preference. No consent banner is required for these technical cookies.

Contact form

When you send us a message via the contact form, we receive your name, email address, optional company name, and the contents of your message. We use this data solely to respond to your enquiry. The data is stored for as long as the resulting business relationship requires, plus any statutory retention periods.

Hosting and server logs

This site is hosted by [Hosting Provider]. The hosting provider processes log files containing your IP address, browser type, request URL, and timestamp. Logs are kept for [N] days for security and operational purposes (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR).

Analytics

[We do not use analytics tools.] / [We use [Analytics Provider] with IP anonymisation and without cookies. The data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR — our legitimate interest in understanding aggregate site usage.]

Third-party services

We use [Email Service Provider — e.g. Resend] to deliver emails sent through the contact form. Personal data is transmitted only insofar as necessary to deliver the message.

Data retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the stated purposes or as required by law. Once the purpose is fulfilled, the data is deleted unless statutory retention periods (e.g. tax law) apply.
