Privacy Policy

Last updated 12 November 2026

This policy explains what personal data this website collects, why, and what rights you have under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Who is responsible

Felipe Caplan Gottardello, based in Portugal, is the controller of the personal data processed on this website. For any privacy question or request, write to fcgottardello@gmail.com.

What I collect

  • Contact form. Your name, email address, the type of project you select and your message. I use them only to reply to you and to discuss a possible project.
  • Analytics, only with your consent. If you accept, Google Analytics collects pseudonymous usage data such as pages visited, time on page, device and browser type, and approximate location. IP addresses are anonymised. If you decline, no analytics are loaded.
  • Technical data. The hosting provider processes your IP address and basic request data to deliver the site and keep it secure.
  • Browser storage. The site saves your cookie choice and a few display settings in your browser’s local storage. This data stays on your device.

Legal basis

  • Replying to your message: steps taken at your request before entering into a contract, and my legitimate interest in answering enquiries (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR).
  • Analytics: your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time.
  • Hosting and security: my legitimate interest in running a safe, working website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Who receives your data

I do not sell or share your data for marketing. It is processed only by the services that run this website:

  • Netlify, Inc. (hosting and contact form processing).
  • Google Ireland Ltd. / Google LLC (Google Analytics, only with consent).
  • Google LLC (email, where your message is delivered).

Some of these providers may transfer data to the United States. These transfers are covered by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and/or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

How long I keep it

  • Contact messages: for as long as needed to handle your enquiry and any resulting project, and deleted at the latest 24 months after our last contact, unless the law requires otherwise.
  • Analytics data: 14 months, after which Google deletes it automatically.

Cookies

Google Analytics sets cookies (named _ga and _ga_*) only after you accept. No other tracking cookies are used. You can change your choice at any time:

Your rights

You have the right to access, correct or delete your data, to restrict or object to its processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, email fcgottardello@gmail.com. I will reply within one month.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Portuguese data protection authority, the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD), at www.cnpd.pt.

Changes

I may update this policy when the website or the law changes. The date at the top shows the latest version.
