4. How We Share Your Data
We do not sell or trade your data. We only use trusted providers:

- Google Analytics → collects usage statistics (aggregated/anonymized reports).
- Website Tools (e.g., Polylang for language, Yoast SEO for optimization) → process only technical data.
📌 If data goes outside the EU (e.g., Google in the US), we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) to ensure GDPR-level protection.
5. Data Retention & Security
- Contact Form Data → Kept for up to 3 years. We keep inquiries for this duration to ensure proper follow-up and to retain a record that may be necessary to defend against potential legal claims.
- Analytics Data → stored per Google’s retention settings (cannot identify or delete individuals in reports).
- Technical Session Data → expires when you close your browser.
We use SSL encryption, secure hosting, and strict access controls to keep your data safe.
6. Your Rights Under GDPR
You have the right to:
- Access your data
- Correct inaccurate data
- Request deletion (“right to be forgotten”)
- Restrict processing
- Object to certain uses
- Request a portable copy of your data
- Withdraw consent at any time
To exercise your rights, please contact us at [email] using a valid email address. We process all valid GDPR rights requests promptly, verifying your identity to ensure secure handling. In rare cases, we may refuse a request if it is clearly unfounded, excessive, or if we must retain data (e.g., emails or contact form submissions) to comply with legal obligations, such as tax or accounting requirements under Hungarian law.
📌 Note: These rights apply to personal data we hold, such as contact form submissions (including names, emails, phone numbers, and message content). Aggregated Google Analytics reports cannot be tied to individuals and cannot be deleted or exported.
