The information collected depends on how you use the website. We aim to collect only the information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.

3. Why We Use Personal Data and Our Legal Bases

We process personal data only where a lawful basis applies. The basis depends on the activity and the context in which the information was provided.

Responding to enquiries and submissions

We use contact information and message content to understand and respond to enquiries, review corrections, consider attachment suggestions and manage relevant cooperation requests. The legal basis is normally our legitimate interest in operating and improving the website, or taking steps at your request before entering into an agreement.

Sending newsletters

We use your email address to send newsletters only after you have actively subscribed. The legal basis is consent. You may withdraw consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in an email or contacting us.

Analytics and optional cookies

Where analytics or other non-essential technologies are enabled, they are used to understand how visitors use the website and to improve content and navigation. For visitors covered by EU and EEA rules, these technologies are activated only after the required consent has been obtained.

Security, abuse prevention and technical operation

Technical logs and security information may be processed to keep the website available, diagnose errors, prevent misuse and protect the website and its users. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in maintaining a secure and reliable service.

Legal obligations and claims

We may retain or disclose information when necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests, establish or defend legal claims, or protect rights and safety.

4. Service Providers and Recipients

We use selected service providers to operate the website and deliver its functions. They may process personal data only to provide the relevant service and are subject to applicable contractual and legal safeguards.

Website hosting

The website is hosted by Simply.com. Hosting services may process website files, databases, backups and technical server logs.

Newsletter service

The newsletter is managed with MailPoet. Depending on the configured sending method, MailPoet and its sending infrastructure may process subscriber email addresses, subscription status, delivery information and newsletter interaction data.

Analytics

Google Analytics may be used after consent to provide aggregated information about website use. Google acts as a service provider for analytics processing, while the website operator remains responsible for deciding why and how the analytics data is used.

Email and technical suppliers

Email hosting, security, backup and technical support providers may process limited information where necessary to deliver their services. Personal data may also be shared with advisers or authorities where legally required.

5. International Data Transfers

Some service providers or their subcontractors may process information outside the European Economic Area. When this occurs, transfers are made using an approved legal mechanism, such as an adequacy decision, the European Commission standard contractual clauses or another lawful safeguard.

The precise transfer arrangements depend on the services enabled on the website and the provider configuration. You may contact us for additional information about safeguards relevant to your data.

6. How Long We Keep Personal Data

We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including legal, security and documentation requirements.

  • General enquiries and submitted corrections: normally deleted or anonymised within 24 months after the last meaningful contact, unless a longer period is needed for an ongoing matter or legal reason.
  • Newsletter subscriptions: kept while you remain subscribed. After unsubscribing, limited information may be retained on a suppression list to ensure that no further newsletters are sent.
  • Technical and security logs: normally kept for a limited period determined by the hosting and security configuration, unless an incident requires longer investigation.
  • Analytics data: retained according to the configured analytics retention period and deleted or aggregated when no longer needed.
  • Legal records: kept for the period required by applicable law or necessary for legal claims.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The website may use essential cookies required for security, administration, consent storage and core functionality. Analytics, marketing or other optional technologies should not be activated until the visitor has made the required consent choice.

Detailed information about cookie names, providers, purposes and expiry periods belongs in the separate Cookie Policy. You can also change or withdraw cookie consent through the consent-management tool when it is available on the website.

Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, you may have the following rights:
