The personal data we collect is processed for the following purposes:

  • Site functionality and service provision:
    • Account registration and management (if applicable).
    • Providing you with content, newsletters, and updates (if you are subscribed).
  • Enhancing user experience:

  • Legitimate interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests (e.g., ensuring Site security, analyzing usage to improve our service, preventing fraud), provided that such interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms. Processing data for analytics using Google Analytics and Cloudflare is often based on our legitimate interest in improving and protecting our service.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us or using the relevant settings (e.g., in your browser or via a consent banner if it provides such functionality). Our analytics notification banner informs you about processing based on legitimate interest or requests consent depending on legal requirements.
