Privacy Policy
January 2023
I value your privacy as much as my own, so I'm committed to keeping your personal and business information safe. I don't feel good about how privacy and tracking is often handled in today's world, so I only ask for the bare minimum.

General
01.01
Personal Information
When you use a contact form on this Site, I collect certain information from you, that may include your name, email address, phone number or more. I refer to this data as Personal Information.
When I collect your personal information
I only store your personal information if you choose to submit a contact form on this Site. In order for you to do so, you must agree to this Privacy Policy.
Additionally, if you fill out a form and don't submit it, your entries are stored locally on your own device so that they're still here when you reload the page. However, this data is deleted automatically as soon as your browser session ends or the form is submitted and no one but you has access to it.
What I use your personal information for
I use the personal Information that I collect to talk with you about your inquiry, so only for the reason why you filled out the form in the first place.
How long I store your personal information
I will store your personal information unless and until you ask me to delete it.
Who i share your personal information with
I never share your personal information with anyone else, unless you give me permission to do so.
01.02
Device Information
When you visit this Site, I automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your operating system, web browser, screen size and location. Additionally, as you browse the Site, I collect information about the individual web pages that you view, what websites or search terms brought you to the Site, and information about how you interact with it. All this data is collected anonymously, which means the person behind it cannot be identified. I refer to this data as Device Information.
When I collect your Device Information
I will collect your Device Information while you browse the site. Additionally, only if you have allowed the use of Analytics Cookies in your personal privacy settings, the system will be able to detect when you revisit the site after some time.
How I use your Device Information
I use the Device Information that I collect to improve and optimise my Site by generating analytics about how visitors browse and interact with it.
How long I store your Device Information
I will store your Device Information for up to 14 months.
Who i share your Device Information with
The anonymous Device Information is collected using a service called Google Analytics and is therefore shared with that service as well.

Techniques
Cookies
Cookies are used to recognise a user when they revisit a website. Technically speaking, they are small files stored on your device that contain a unique anonymous identifier.
Local Storage & Session Storage
Local Storage is used to remember user choices, such as Cookie settings, when they return to this website.
Session Storage is used to remember user inputs, such as form entries, when a website is reloaded. Unlike Local Storage, it's automatically deleted as soon as the browser session ends.
SSL or TLS encryption
To protect the transfer of confidential information, my website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This way, data sent through this website cannot be read by others.
IP Anonymisation
Within the member states of the EU, IP addresses are shortened. This way, individual persons cannot be identified.

Google complies with the European data protection law (GDPR) and is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement. For full compliance, I have entered into a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with Google as well.
