2. Data we collect

2.1 Technical data (server logs)

When you visit this website, your browser automatically transmits information to the web server. This includes:

• Your IP address (anonymised after 7 days)
• Date and time of the request
• URL of the page visited
• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• HTTP status code and data volume transferred

This data is processed on the basis of a legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) to ensure the technical operation and security of the website. It is not used to identify individual visitors and is not linked to other data sources.

2.2 No analytics or tracking

This website does not use any analytics tools (such as Google Analytics), advertising pixels, heat-mapping services, or any other third-party tracking software. Your browsing behaviour on this site is not monitored or recorded beyond the server logs described above.

3. Cookies

This website uses only technically necessary cookies — small text files placed on your device to ensure the site functions correctly. These cookies do not track you, are not shared with third parties, and expire at the end of your browser session unless stated otherwise.

No consent banner is displayed because no cookies requiring consent (e.g. analytics or marketing cookies) are set. If this changes in future, this policy will be updated and a consent mechanism will be added.

You can configure or disable cookies at any time in your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect how the site displays.

4. Business enquiries

When you submit the contact form on this website, the following data is collected:

• Company or brand name
• Your name
• Email address
• Target budget per post
• Briefing / project description

This data is used solely to respond to your enquiry and to assess whether a collaboration is a good fit. It is processed on the basis of pre-contractual measures taken at your request (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).

Form submissions are sent directly to the controller's email inbox. They are not stored in a database and are not shared with third parties. Email communication following your enquiry may be retained for as long as is necessary to fulfil a potential business relationship.

5. Third parties & external services

This website does not embed any third-party services that track you or set cookies on their behalf. In particular:

• No Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or similar tracking tools
• No embedded social media widgets (Instagram, TikTok, etc.)
• No advertising networks
• No live chat or CRM integrations

The fonts used on this site (Dancing Script, DM Serif Display, DM Sans) are loaded from Google Fonts. When fonts are requested, your IP address is transmitted to Google's servers. If you prefer to prevent this, you can block Google Fonts in your browser or use a browser extension that blocks font loading. See Google's Privacy Policy for further details.

6. Data retention

Personal data is only retained for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected:

• Server logs — IP addresses are anonymised after 7 days; log files are deleted after 30 days.
• Enquiry emails — retained for the duration of any resulting business relationship, and deleted within 6 months if no collaboration follows.

7. Your rights

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right of access — you may request a copy of the personal data held about you.
