3. Recipients of your data

We use a small number of processors to run this website. We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it with advertisers.

  • Resend (Resend, Inc., USA) — sends waitlist notification emails, and stores your email address and first name if you subscribe to our newsletter, until you unsubscribe.
  • Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc., USA) — hosts this website and processes the technical data needed to deliver it, including your IP address, in its server logs. Also provides our cookie-free Web Analytics (see Section 5).

Resend and Cloudflare are based outside the EU/EEA. Where personal data is transferred there, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and/or Standard Contractual Clauses. Contact us if you would like more detail.

4. Legal basis for processing

We process your personal data on the following legal bases under GDPR (Article 6):

  • Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)) — for newsletter sign-ups
  • Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) — for server logs, security monitoring, and aggregate, cookie-free website analytics
  • Contractual necessity (Art. 6(1)(b)) — to respond to direct enquiries and template waitlist requests

5. Cookies and local storage

This website does not set any cookies. Your choice on the cookie banner (accept or decline) is remembered using your browser's local storage, which stays on your device and is never sent to us or any third party.

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to see aggregate visit counts and popular pages. It sets no cookie, uses no persistent identifier, and cannot track you across other websites — see Cloudflare's own Web Analytics privacy documentation for detail.
