How personal data is collected, used and protected on eryksavin.com. Short version: as little as possible, only what's needed.
This site is operated by Eryk Savin, an independent consultant operating as a private individual. For any questions about how your data is handled, use the contact form at eryksavin.com/contact/.
As the site operator, Eryk Savin acts as the data controller for any personal information collected through this site.
This site collects only the minimum data necessary to function and respond to enquiries.
When you submit the contact form, the following data is collected: your name, email address, selected topic, preferred language, and the content of your message. This data is transmitted directly by email to the site operator and is not stored in a database or third-party CRM.
If you accept cookies, basic anonymised analytics data may be collected: pages visited, time on page, approximate geographic region (country level), browser type, and device category. No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics.
Contact form data is collected solely to respond to your enquiry. It is not used for marketing, is not shared with third parties, and is not added to any mailing list.
Analytics data, where consented, is used to understand which content is useful and how the site performs. It is not used to build profiles, retarget advertising or identify individual visitors.
The legal basis for processing contact form data is your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) and the legitimate interest of responding to a direct enquiry (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Analytics data is processed only on the basis of explicit cookie consent.
This site uses a cookie consent banner. Until you make a choice, only strictly necessary cookies are set.
One cookie is set to remember your consent preference (consent_status). It contains only the value "accepted" or "rejected" and expires after 30 days.
If you accept cookies, anonymised analytics cookies may be set to measure traffic patterns. These do not identify you personally. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing your browser cookies.
For full details see the Cookie Policy.
This site does not sell, rent or share personal data with third parties for commercial purposes.
The site is hosted on standard web hosting infrastructure. The hosting provider may process request logs as part of normal server operation. These logs are not used by the site operator to identify individual visitors.
This site has no integration with Google Ads, Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel or any other advertising network. No retargeting or behavioural advertising is in use.
The contact form sends data via a server-side PHP script directly to the operator's email. No third-party form service or marketing automation platform is involved.
Contact form submissions are retained in email form for as long as is necessary to respond to and fulfil the enquiry. If a paid engagement follows, related data is retained for the duration required by applicable tax and contract law (typically 5–7 years depending on jurisdiction).
Cookie consent preferences expire after 30 days, after which the banner will reappear.
Under the GDPR and equivalent regulations, you have the right to access the personal data held about you; request correction of inaccurate data; request deletion; object to processing; and request restriction of processing.
To exercise any of these rights, contact the site operator using the form at eryksavin.com/contact/. Requests will be responded to within 30 days.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority if you believe your data has been handled improperly.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how your data is handled, use the contact form at eryksavin.com/contact/. Please include "Privacy" in the subject line.
This policy may be updated from time to time. The date shown above reflects the most recent revision.
