This website is hosted on a server environment within the European Union. We
keep the processing of personal data to a minimum and handle carefully what you
entrust to us.
What data we process
If you only browse this website, we do not process data that identifies you
personally, unless you consent to advertising and analytics — see “Cookies and
statistics” below.
There is no contact form on this site. If you write to us by e-mail, we
process your e-mail address and whatever you choose to tell us, for as long as
is needed to answer you and for our records. The legal basis is our legitimate
interest in answering enquiries, or the preparation of an agreement if your
message leads to one (Article 6(1)(f) and 6(1)(b) GDPR).
Cookies and statistics
Always used
| Cookie | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Cookie choice | Remembers what you accepted or refused, so we do not have to ask again on every page. |
Six months |
| Login cookies | Only for people who log in to manage this website. Without them logging in is impossible. As a visitor you do not receive them. |
Until logout |
These require no consent: they are strictly necessary for a function you
requested yourself, and they say nothing about who you are or what you do
elsewhere.
Our own visit measurement — no cookies
We keep track of how many people view which page, so we can see what visitors
are looking for. No cookie is placed, your IP address is shortened before it is
stored, no profile is built, and the data stays on our own servers within the
European Union. Individual visit records are deleted after 180 days; after that
only totals remain. This measurement needs no consent and continues regardless
of your choice.
Advertising and analytics — only with your consent
This website shows advertisements and uses website analytics, both provided
by Google (Google AdSense and Google Analytics). If you accept, Google may place
cookies and process data such as your browsing behaviour and identifiers on this
site, and may use that data to personalise advertising. Google acts as an
independent controller for these purposes and may transfer data outside the
European Union.
If you do not accept, these cookies are not placed and Google is instructed
not to use your data for advertising personalisation, advertising storage or
analytics storage. You can still use the whole website; you will simply see
advertising that is not tailored to you.
More information about how Google uses data from sites that use its services
is published at
policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Signing in with a Google account
This website offers the option to sign in with a Google account, for people
who manage the site. The script that provides this is loaded from Google on
every page and stores one cookie (g_state) that remembers whether
the sign-in prompt was dismissed. This happens before and independently of your
cookie choice, because it belongs to the sign-in function rather than to
advertising or analytics. It contains no advertising identifier.
Changing your mind
Your cookie choice is stored for six months. You can change it at any time
using the Cookie preferences button at the bottom of every
page. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, and takes effect
immediately.
You can also delete cookies at any time through your browser settings, and
set your browser to refuse them. The website will keep working; you will only be
asked for your choice again.
Your rights
You have the right to access your data, to have it corrected or erased, to
receive it in a common file format, and to have the processing restricted. You
can also object to processing based on our legitimate interest, such as the
visit measurement described above. Please write to
basil@baroquebows.com.
If you have a complaint about how your data is handled, you can also lodge it
with the data protection authority in your country of residence.
