  • Performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps.
  • Legitimate business interests.
  • Compliance with legal obligations.

6. Data Sharing

Data may be shared with trusted service providers used to operate the website and communications (for example, hosting and scheduling providers). Data is not sold.

7. International Data Transfers

If personal data is transferred outside your jurisdiction (including outside the EEA/UK where applicable), appropriate safeguards are used, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent transfer mechanisms required by law.

8. Data Retention

This website does not use non-essential analytics or advertising cookies. Only strictly necessary technical cookies that may be set by hosting infrastructure are used for core website functionality.

When enabled in production, privacy-friendly web analytics may be collected via Cloudflare Web Analytics. This uses a lightweight JavaScript beacon and does not set cookies. It provides aggregated, anonymized usage metrics (such as page views and basic performance data). Personal advertising profiles are not created. The beacon is only loaded when an analytics token is configured for the deployment.

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your data, and to object to processing or request portability.

To exercise these rights, email yahor@darashkevich.com. Identity verification may be required. Requests are typically answered within 30 days where required by law.

You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority.

12. Third-Party Links

This website may contain links to third-party services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

13. Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated periodically. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
