When we mention "User" in this notice, we're referring to anyone who browses the Website and gets in touch with us.
Use of Cookies and Technical Data Collection

Processing Your Personal Data
We may collect and process your personal data when you get in touch with us via email or the contact form on the Website. The data we collect includes:

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. Personal data is data from which we can reasonably draw conclusions about you or which can be used to identify you as an individual person.
This data is used for the sole purpose of responding to your inquiry and communicating with you. We only process your data when necessary to fulfill your request or when you've provided us with explicit consent to do so.
Legal Basis for Processing
When you reach out to us, we handle your personal data under the GDPR's contract performance basis (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR). In other words, processing your data is necessary to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract or to perform a contract we may have with you.
If the contract performance basis doesn't fit, we'll rely on your explicit consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) or our legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) to respond to your questions and keep communication open.
How Long We Keep Your Data
We only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected, such as responding to your inquiry. After that, we'll delete or anonymize your data unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

We don't sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes. However, we may share your data with:
- Service providers who help us operate the Website and communicate with you (such as hosting providers or email service providers)
- Legal authorities, if required by law or to protect our legal rights
Any third-party service providers we use are obliged to handle your data securely and in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

Data Security
We take your data security seriously and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no online transmission method or electronic storage is 100% secure, so while we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
