1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how riverandgarden.eu ("the Site") collects, uses, and handles information when you access its content. The Site is a static informational resource and does not operate user accounts, e-commerce, or data processing services.
2. Information Collected
2.1 Contact Form Submissions
The Site includes a contact form that accepts a name, email address, phone number, and message. This form operates as a frontend-only simulation. No data submitted through this form is transmitted to any server or stored by the Site operator. Submissions are processed entirely within your browser session.
2.2 Cookies and Local Storage
The Site uses browser localStorage to remember your cookie consent preference (Accept or Reject). No tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics cookies are set by this Site.
Embedded images are served directly from Wikimedia Commons (commons.wikimedia.org). Accessing these images may result in Wikimedia's servers logging your IP address in accordance with their own Privacy Policy.
2.3 Server Logs
As with any website, the hosting server may automatically record standard access log information including your IP address, browser type, referring URL, and pages visited. This is standard web server behaviour outside the Site operator's control and is not used for profiling or marketing purposes.
3. Legal Basis
The Site does not collect personal data beyond what may appear in standard server access logs. No data processing requiring explicit consent under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is conducted through this Site.
4. Data Retention
Contact form data is not retained — it exists only in your browser's memory during the session. Cookie preferences stored in localStorage remain until you clear your browser data.
5. Your Rights
Under the GDPR and Polish data protection law (Act of 10 May 2018 on the Protection of Personal Data), you have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of personal data held about you. Since this Site does not store personal data, such requests are not applicable in practice. For any questions, contact info@riverandgarden.eu.
6. Third-Party Links
Articles on this Site may link to external sources including government portals, municipal planning documents, and academic databases. Once you navigate away from this Site, this Privacy Policy no longer applies. Linked sites have their own privacy policies.
7. Children
This Site is an informational resource not directed at children under 16. No data is knowingly collected from children.
8. Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically. The date shown at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
