Personal Information Collected and Why

Website Traffic Monitoring

Like most websites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user activity. This data helps us understand how many users visit the site, how they find it, and how they navigate through it. While GA collects data such as geographic location, device, browser, and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you. GA also records your IP address, which could potentially identify you, but Google does not provide us access to it. We consider Google a third-party data processor compliant with EU legislation.

Contact Forms and Email Links

If you contact us via a contact form or email link, your data will not be stored on this website or processed by third parties. Instead, it is sent via email using SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). Our SMTP servers are secured with TLS (also known as SSL), ensuring that email content is encrypted before transmission and decrypted only on our local systems.
