Mode of Processing Data

I take appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or unauthorized destruction of your data. 

Legal basis for processing

I may process your personal information if you have consented to one or more of the purposes listed below. At any time, you may withdraw your consent for processing at which time processing will only be done for compliance with legal obligations. 

In any case, I will gladly help to clarify the specific legal basis that applies to the processing, and in particular whether the provision of personal data is a statutory or contractual requirement, or a requirement necessary to enter into a contract.

What personal data I collect on this website and why I collect it

I gather voluntarily provided information about you in order to:

  • respond to your requests for information on my services

  • allow me to contact you while a consulting project is ongoing

I collect the following minimal information on the website:

  • name

  • email address

  • phone number

  • information related to your consulting inquiry

Additional information such as address and detailed consulting requirements are captured voluntarily by email, phone or in person.

In addition to the data specified above, this website collects data necessary to carry out the functions of a website (see How do I use cookies for more information).

System logs and maintenance

For operation and maintenance purposes, this website and any third-party services may collect files that record interaction with this website (System logs) using other personal data (such as the IP Address) for this purpose.

How do I use this data?

I use the data I collect on this website as follows:

  • To contact you in response to your inquiry, order, quote, or booking

  • To prepare and send quotes and invoices

  • To prepare and deliver services

I will never use this data for marketing or promotion purposes without getting your permission in writing first (for example, to publish your testimonial for me on my website).

How do I use cookies?

A cookie is a small file placed on your computer’s hard drive. It enables my website to identify your computer as you view different pages on my website.

The only way in which I use cookies is for web analytics, specifically:

  • Google Analytics

Cookies do not provide me with access to your computer or any information about you other than that which you elect to share with me. You can use your web browser’s cookie settings to determine how my website uses cookies. If you do not want my website to store cookies on your computer or device, you can amend your settings. Please note that this may affect how my website functions, and some pages may become unavailable to you. 

Pages on this site may include links to other external sites. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

How do I collect your personal data?

I collect and store minimal information via the following forms:

  • Web contact form (not stored on my website)

  • Document contact form (not stored on website)

  • Email (Google)

I will never lease, distribute or sell your information to third parties unless I am required to do so by law.

You can ask me to remove your data from my records at any time.

How do I store your personal data?

The information I collect is stored as follows:

  • On my private hard drive: this is where I collect and prepare information for clients

  • Google: This is the service I use to communicate via email and to store client contact information and project-related data. You can access Google’s privacy policy here.

How long do I keep your data?

Personal data shall be processed and stored for as long as required by the purpose they have been collected for.

I may be allowed to retain personal data for a longer period whenever I have been given consent to such processing, as long as such consent is not withdrawn. Furthermore, I may be obliged to retain personal data for a longer period whenever required to do so for the performance of a legal obligation or upon order of an authority.

Once the retention period expires, personal data shall be deleted. Therefore, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after expiration of the retention period.

With whom is your data shared?

No one, unless you request that I do so in writing.

I reserve the right to make changes to this privacy policy at any time by notifying Users on this page and possibly on the website and/or - as far as technically and legally feasible - sending a notice to Users via any contact information which Users have provided. It is strongly recommended to check this page often, referring to the date of the last modification listed at the bottom.

Should the changes effect processing activities performed on the basis of the User’s consent, I will collect new consent from Users, where required.
