Contact form: When you submit the contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the message content. This data is collected solely to respond to your inquiry.
Server logs: Our hosting provider (Vercel) automatically records access logs which may include your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. These logs are used for security and operational purposes only.
Local storage: We store your theme preference (dark/light) and cookie consent choice in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device and requires no consent as it is purely functional.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
Contact form data: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR - processing is necessary to respond to your pre-contractual inquiry or service request.
Server logs: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR - legitimate interest in securing and operating the website.
