What data we process and why

Technical data when you visit – IP address, browser type, time and requested URL. It is logged by the hosting infrastructure to keep the site running and to prevent abuse. When signing in to the administration and calling the website's interfaces, we temporarily store the IP address to limit password-guessing and overload attacks. Legal basis: legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Communication – if you e-mail or call us, we process your contact details and the content of your message to reply or prepare an offer. Legal basis: pre-contractual steps and legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR).

Analytics – only if you give consent, we use Google Analytics 4 for anonymous statistics on how the site is used. IP addresses are anonymised. Legal basis: consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Without consent, Google Analytics is not loaded at all.

Administration – for content editor accounts we process name, e-mail and change logs including IP address and browser, so that it is possible to trace who changed the website and when.
