Personal information collected by this site and why we collect it

Website traffic monitoring

Like most sites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user activity. We use this data to determine the number of our site visitors to better understand how they find and use our web pages.
Although GA records data such as your geographic location, your device, your web browser, and your operating system, none of this information identify you to us. GA also records your computer’s IP address, which could be used to identify you, but Google does not provide access to it. We believe that Google is a third data processor that is compliant with the requirements of European legislation.

Contact forms and e-mail links

If you choose to contact us using a contact form or an email link, none of the data you provide will be stored to our site or transferred or processed by any third party data processor as defined below.
Instead, these data will be sent to us via an SMTP protocol (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol).
Our SMTP servers are protected by a TLS security protocol (also known as SSL), meaning that email content is encrypted before being sent over the Internet.
The content of the email is decrypted by our local computers and devices.

Newsletters

If you choose to subscribe to our newsletter, the email address you submit will be forwarded to Mailchimp which manages our e-mail marketing services.
Your e-mail address will not be stored in any of our databases.
It will remain in Mailchimp for as long as we continue to use our e-mail marketing services or until you explicitly request removal from the mailing list.
You can unsubscribe using the delete link contained in all our email newsletters.
As long as your e-mail remains in the Mailchimp database, you will receive periodic (approx. once a month) e-mail newsletters from us.
