Cookies and tracking

This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics or advertising trackers. Some images on the site are loaded from Unsplash, which receives your IP address as any image host does.

Services we use

Some of these providers process data outside the European Economic Area (mainly the USA). They do so under the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and/or the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. We never sell your data or share it for advertising.

Your rights

You can ask us to show, correct, export or delete your data, to limit how we use it, or object to it — including to any follow-up after a website check. We answer within 30 days. You can also complain to the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (dpa.gr) or the authority in your country.

How to delete your data

Send us a message through the brief form, WhatsApp or an Instagram direct message with the words “delete my data” and the website address or username you used. We delete everything we hold about you within 30 days and confirm when it is done. This also covers data we received through our Instagram or Facebook integration.

Changes

If we change how we handle data, we update this page and the date at the top.
