What Data We Collect
This website collects only the minimal data necessary to operate and improve the service:
- Contact form: name, email address and message — used solely to respond to your inquiry.
- Server logs: IP address, browser type and page visit times — retained briefly by the hosting infrastructure for security purposes.
- Analytics (Vercel Analytics): anonymous, aggregated usage statistics — no personal data, no cookies.
- Analytics (Google Analytics 4): page views, session data, device and browser information — processed by Google LLC. GA4 uses cookies and may transfer data to the United States.
Legal Basis for Processing
Data from the contact form is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures) and Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding to inquiries). Server log data is processed under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for security and operational purposes.
Analytics
Vercel Analytics collects anonymous, aggregated usage statistics without cookies and without storing personally identifiable information or IP addresses. No consent banner is required for this service. More at vercel.com/docs/analytics/privacy-policy.
Google Analytics 4 (GA4) is used to collect website usage data including page views, session duration and interaction events. GA4 is operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Data may be transferred to Google servers in the United States. GA4 uses cookies (e.g. _ga, _ga_*) to distinguish visitors. GA4 is only activated after you accept analytics via the consent notice on your first visit. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent). More at policies.google.com/privacy.
Cookies
This website does not use cookies for advertising or profiling. On your first visit, a small notice asks whether you consent to analytics. If you accept, Google Analytics 4 sets first-party cookies (_ga, _ga_*) to distinguish sessions. If you decline, no analytics cookies are set and GA4 remains inactive.
We implement Google Consent Mode v2, which ensures GA4 only collects data proportionate to your choice. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing your browser's local storage or contacting us.
Hosting
This website is hosted by Vercel Inc., 340 Pine Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94104, USA. When you visit this website, your IP address and browser information may be processed by Vercel as part of the hosting infrastructure. Vercel complies with GDPR through standard contractual clauses (SCCs). More information at vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy.
Data Retention
Contact form submissions are retained only as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry and to fulfil any legal retention obligations under Austrian law. Server log data is deleted after a short period as defined by our hosting provider.
