We respect your privacy and are committed to processing personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”) and applicable data protection legislation.

2. What personal data we collect
The Website is an informational website. You can browse the Website without creating an account, logging in, submitting a contact form, or providing us with personal information.
We do not intentionally collect personal information such as your name, email address, telephone number or postal address through the Website.
However, when you visit a website, certain technical information may be processed automatically by the web server and infrastructure used to operate the Website. This may include:
- your IP address;
- date and time of the request;
- the requested page or resource;
- information about your browser and operating system;
- the referring website, where provided by your browser; and
- technical information necessary to deliver and secure the Website.
This information is generally contained in server or security logs.
3. Why do we process this information?
We may process technical information and server logs for the following purposes:
- to make the Website available and ensure that it functions correctly;
- to maintain the security and stability of the Website;
- to detect, prevent and investigate technical problems, abuse or security incidents; and
- where necessary, to comply with legal obligations.
We do not use this information to create user profiles or for behavioural advertising.
4. Legal basis for processing
Where the processing of technical data is necessary to provide and secure the Website, our legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interests).
Our legitimate interests include operating, maintaining and securing the Website and protecting our systems against misuse, attacks and other security threats.
Where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.
5. Server logs and retention
Technical and security logs may be retained for a limited period that is reasonably necessary for the operation and security of the Website.
Server logs are normally retained for 4 days and are then automatically deleted.
Where a longer retention period is necessary to investigate a security incident, comply with a legal obligation or establish, exercise or defend legal claims, the relevant information may be retained for as long as necessary for that purpose.
6. Cookies
This Website does not use cookies for advertising, behavioural tracking or analytics.
Depending on the configuration of WordPress, the web server and your browser, technically necessary cookies or similar technologies may be used where required for the technical operation or security of the Website.
We do not use such technologies to track your activity across unrelated websites.
WordPress itself uses certain cookies for functions such as authentication and comments, but these functions are not available to ordinary visitors on this Website because visitor accounts and commenting are disabled.
7. Third-party services and recipients
We do not sell or rent personal data.
Technical information may be processed by service providers that provide infrastructure necessary to operate the Website, such as:
- web hosting providers;
- server or infrastructure providers; and
- security, networking or content-delivery providers, where applicable.
Such providers may process technical information, including IP addresses, on our behalf where necessary to provide their services.
- Zone Media OÜ – www.zone.eu
Where required by law, personal data may also be disclosed to competent authorities or other recipients.
8. International transfers
Personal data is not transferred to a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA), as all our hosting providers are in the EEA.
- Zone Media OÜ – www.zone.eu
9. Your rights under the GDPR
Depending on the circumstances and applicable legal requirements, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:
- Right of access – to request information about whether we process your personal data and to obtain a copy of it.
- Right to rectification – to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
- Right to erasure – to request deletion of your personal data where the legal requirements for erasure are met.

- Right to data portability – where applicable, to receive personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
- Right to withdraw consent – where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
Because this Website does not provide user accounts, comments, contact forms or other facilities for submitting personal information, the amount of personal data we hold about an ordinary visitor may be very limited.
To exercise your rights, contact us using the details provided in Section 1.
10. Right to lodge a complaint
If you believe that our processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
