We may collect the following categories of data:

A. Data you provide via forms (Fluent Forms)
When you submit a form, we may collect:

  • Name

  • Email address

  • Phone number

  • Comment/message content
    Attachments/uploads: not collected.

Marketing/consent checkbox: If you tick the consent/marketing checkbox, you agree that we may contact you for the stated purpose (e.g., updates related to your request or marketing if described next to the checkbox). If you do not tick it, we will only use your details to respond to your request.

B. Payment-related data (WayForPay)
If you make a payment, it is processed by WayForPay. We may receive confirmation of payment (e.g., status, amount, transaction reference), but we do not store full payment card details. Payment information is handled by WayForPay according to their policies.

C. Technical data, cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies via:

  • Google Tag Manager (GTM)

  • Google Analytics (GA)

  • Google Ads / remarketing

  • Google Consent Mode

  • Meta (Facebook) Pixel

These tools may collect data such as IP address (or its shortened form), device and browser information, approximate location, pages viewed, actions on the Website, and identifiers (cookies/advertising IDs), depending on your cookie choices and browser settings.

2) How we use your data

We use personal data to:

  • Respond to your inquiries and communicate with you

  • Provide and improve the Website and its content

  • Measure traffic and usage (analytics)

  • Show and measure advertising and remarketing campaigns (where enabled and permitted)

  • Process donations/payments and manage accounting/records (where applicable)

  • Protect the Website, prevent fraud/abuse, and ensure security

3) Legal bases (where applicable)

Depending on your location and applicable law (including GDPR where relevant), we process data based on:

  • Consent (e.g., analytics/marketing cookies, marketing checkbox)

  • Legitimate interests (e.g., basic website security, improving the Website)

  • Contract / steps before a contract (e.g., processing a payment or request)

  • Legal obligations (e.g., accounting or compliance requirements)

4) Cookies and choices

We use a cookie banner/consent mechanism (where available) to manage optional cookies and tracking. You can:

  • Adjust your cookie preferences via the Website’s cookie settings (if shown)

  • Block or delete cookies in your browser settings

  • Opt out of certain ad personalization in Google/Meta settings (where available)

Withdrawing consent will not affect processing that occurred before withdrawal.

5) Sharing and third parties

We may share data with service providers that help us operate the Website, such as:

  • Hosting provider: Hostinger (WordPress hosting)

  • Analytics/advertising: Google (GTM, GA, Google Ads, Consent Mode), Meta (Pixel)

  • Payments: WayForPay (payment processing)

These providers may process data on our behalf or as separate controllers under their own terms. We share only what is necessary for the services.

6) International data transfers

Because our audience is worldwide and we use global providers (e.g., Google, Meta, Hostinger, WayForPay), your data may be processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for international transfers (such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent measures used by providers).

7) Data retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Where possible, we delete or anonymize data when it is no longer needed, or upon a valid deletion request.

8) Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect data. However, no website or internet transmission is 100% secure.

9) Your rights

Depending on your country, you may have rights to:

  • Access your personal data

  • Correct inaccurate data

  • Delete data (“right to be forgotten”)

  • Restrict or object to processing

  • Withdraw consent (when processing is based on consent)

  • Data portability (in some cases)

  • Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority

To exercise your rights, contact us at [email protected].

10) Children

The Website is intended for a general audience and is not designed to knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, contact us to request deletion.

11) Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
