Scope
This Privacy Policy describes how riverandporchco.eu ("the site", "we", "our") handles information relating to visitors. The site is an informational resource based in the European Union and subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR — Regulation (EU) 2016/679).
Data we collect
Contact form submissions
If you submit the contact form on the homepage, the form collects the name, email address, and optional telephone number you provide, along with the text of your message. This data is submitted client-side and is not transmitted to any server. No backend processing or storage occurs. The form is provided as a local simulation to demonstrate functionality.
Cookies and local storage
The site stores a single item in your browser's localStorage to record your cookie consent choice (accepted or rejected). This item is stored only on your device and is not transmitted anywhere. It is identified by the key rp_cookie_choice.
No tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or analytics cookies are set by this site.
Server logs
Like most hosted websites, the web server hosting this site may log standard request data including IP addresses, browser user-agent strings, referrer URLs, and timestamps. These logs are maintained by the hosting provider for technical and security purposes. Server-level log retention and handling is governed by the hosting provider's own policies.
Third-party content
This site loads images hosted by Wikimedia Commons (upload.wikimedia.org). When your browser loads these images, your IP address is visible to Wikimedia Foundation servers. Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy applies to those requests: https://foundation.wikimedia.org/wiki/Policy:Privacy_policy.
Google Fonts is loaded via Google's CDN. When fonts are requested, Google may log your IP address. Google's privacy policy applies: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Legal basis for processing
No personal data is collected or processed by riverandporchco.eu beyond what is described in the server logs section above. That processing is based on legitimate interest in maintaining functional and secure hosting infrastructure.
Data retention
The site itself retains no personal data. Server log retention is determined by the hosting provider.
Your rights under GDPR
Residents of the European Economic Area have rights including access to, correction of, and erasure of personal data. As this site does not collect or store personal data directly, these rights apply primarily to data that may be held in server logs by the hosting provider. For queries about server-level data, contact the hosting provider directly.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when the technical operation of the site changes. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
