Information Collected

  • Analytics / usage data (optional) — pages viewed, approximate location (country/city level), device/browser info, and interaction signals. This is collected only if you accept analytics cookies.
  • Information you submit — for example name, email, and message content if you contact via email or forms, or subscribe to a newsletter.

How Information Is Used

  • Understand aggregate usage and measure performance (when analytics is accepted).
  • Respond to messages and requests you send.
  • Personal data is not sold or rented.

Legal Basis & Retention

Where applicable (e.g., EU/EEA/UK), analytics processing relies on consent. Messages you send may be processed under legitimate interest or contractual necessity, depending on context. Information is retained only as long as necessary for the purposes described or until deletion is requested (where applicable).

Cookies & Consent

  • Essential — required for core functionality and security. This includes storing your consent choice.
  • Analytics (optional) — used to measure traffic and improve the site; enabled only after you accept.

Cookie examples (names may vary):
