3. Cookies
The site uses necessary WordPress session cookies that are required for the website to function properly. These are automatically deleted when the browser is closed and contain no personal data.
Consent is required for analytics cookies. We use Google Analytics (GA4) for anonymous site usage statistics (IP masking enabled by default) and Google Search Console for performance insights. Data is anonymized, no personal identifiers stored. This helps improve content.
4. Social media links
Social media icons (Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) are simple hyperlinks. When the page loads or when a visitor clicks them, their browser may connect to the respective platform’s servers. Clicking them may allow the platform to set cookies/track data according to their policy (we have no control, e.g. Meta: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy).
5. Embedded content from other websites
The site may display embed videos, maps, social media posts or any other third-party content. These embedded contents behave as if you visited that third-party site directly, and their privacy policies will apply.
6. Advertising
At present, the website displays no advertisements. If advertisements are added in the future, they may use cookies or tracking technologies according to the advertiser’s own privacy policy.
7. Data subject rights & GDPR
Because we do not process any personal data, the rights under the GDPR (access, rectification, erasure, etc.) do not apply.
