Information We Collect
When you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain technical information such as your IP address (anonymized when applicable), browser type, device information, the pages you visit, and the time and date of your visit. This data helps us understand how our site is used and how we can improve it. If you submit a message through our contact form, we collect the data you voluntarily provide, including your name, email address, and message content. This information is used only to respond to your inquiry.
Cookies and Analytics
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience, deliver personalized advertising, and analyze traffic. These may be placed by third-party services such as Google Analytics, Google AdSense, and Yandex Metrica. Google Analytics 4 is configured to anonymize IP addresses by default. Yandex Metrica is set to mask a portion of the IP address to comply with data protection laws. We also use personalized advertising through Google AdSense, which may track your activity across sites to serve relevant ads. These tracking activities occur only with your consent, which we request via our cookie banner.
Legal Basis for Processing
We rely on different legal grounds depending on the type of data and the context in which it is collected. For analytics, personalized advertising, and cookies, we rely on your explicit consent. For site operation, security, and basic communication—such as responding to your contact form messages—we rely on our legitimate interest in maintaining and improving the website’s functionality.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
We use third-party service providers to support our operations. These include Google (Analytics and AdSense), Yandex (Metrica), and Cloudflare (security and content delivery). These providers may process your data in accordance with their own privacy policies, and some data may be transferred outside the EU under approved safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses. Our content may include affiliate links. We do not embed affiliate tracking cookies or scripts, but clicking on third-party links may result in tracking by the external site. We are not responsible for the data practices of those third parties.
Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. Contact form submissions are stored for up to 12 months. Analytics data is retained according to the settings in each analytics platform. Cookie data is retained for the duration defined by each cookie.
Your Rights
If you are a resident of the United States, including California, Virginia, Colorado, Texas, or any other state with applicable privacy laws, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, use, or share; to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data; and to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for targeted advertising. You also have the right not to be discriminated against for exercising your rights.
If you are a resident of the European Union, United Kingdom, or other regions governed by the GDPR, you may have additional rights including the right to restrict or object to processing, withdraw consent, request data portability, and lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
To exercise any of these rights, or if you have questions about your data, you may contact us at [email protected].
U.S. State Privacy Rights
If you are a resident of a U.S. state with privacy laws such as California (CCPA/CPRA), Virginia, Colorado, or others listed above, you may have specific rights regarding your personal information. These include the right to know what data we collect and how we use it, the right to request correction or deletion, and the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal data.
Our use of personalized advertising through services like Google AdSense may be considered “sharing” under California law. We do not sell personal data for money. However, we may allow advertising providers to collect identifiers or usage data to deliver relevant ads. You may exercise your rights by contacting us at [email protected]. California residents may also opt out by clicking the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link in the site footer. Please note that preferences may need to be set separately for each device or browser.
Children’s Privacy
