What data we process

  • Contact form data: your first and last name, e-mail, optionally a phone number, and the message text that you provide voluntarily.
  • Technical and statistical data: collected through analytics cookies (e.g. Google Analytics), and only if you grant your consent. This is anonymized data about how the site is used (pages visited, device type, approximate location).

Purpose and legal basis for processing

  • Handling your enquiry: based on your consent, or to take steps prior to entering into a contract (Art. 6(1)(a) and (b) GDPR).
  • Analytics and site improvement: solely on the basis of the consent you grant through the cookie banner (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time.

Retention period

We keep enquiry data for as long as is necessary to handle it, or for the duration of the business relationship, and thereafter in line with statutory retention periods. Analytics data is retained in accordance with the Google Analytics settings (max. 14 months).

Recipients and data transfers

We do not sell your data. To run the site and its analytics we use trusted processors (e.g. Google Ireland Ltd. for Google Analytics). Some services may involve transferring data outside the EU on the basis of standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

Cookies

Cookies are small files that the website stores in your browser. We use two categories:

Essential cookies

These ensure the basic functioning and security of the site (e.g. the session cookies laravel_session, XSRF-TOKEN). They are always active and do not require consent.

Analytics cookies

Google Analytics (_ga, _ga_*) helps us understand how the site is used. They are activated only after your consent through the cookie banner. Until consent is granted, Google Analytics sets no cookies (Consent Mode).

You can change your consent at any time via the Cookie settings link in the page footer, or by clearing the cookies in your browser.

In connection with the processing of personal data, you have the right to:

  • access and rectify your data,
