2. Data I Collect & Why (Legal Basis)
I adhere to a minimalist data principle. The table below details what I collect, for what purpose, and the legal basis that permits me to do so under GDPR.
| Purpose of Processing | Category of Data | Legal Basis (GDPR Art. 6) |

Necessary to ensure the Service is accessed by legitimate users and to prevent misuse (e.g., automated bots, malicious actors). |

3. Data Sharing (Data Processors)
I use trusted third-party service providers who act as Data Processors and only process your data on my behalf under strict contractual obligations:
- Gumroad, Inc. – The official Merchant of Record (MoR) and payment processor. They handle all payment transactions, taxes, and refunds. I never see your full payment card details. (See Gumroad’s Privacy Policy).
- Private Hosting – Provides the server infrastructure where the Service operates.
- WordPress as CMS – The platform used to manage the website and user accounts.
4. International Data Transfers
Processors (like Gumroad or the hosting provider) may store and process data outside the European Economic Area (EEA). In such cases, I ensure transfers are governed by appropriate safeguards like the EU Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
5. Data Retention Periods
I retain your personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes stated, or as required by law.
- Account & Configuration Data: Retained while your account is active. Upon cancellation, data is deactivated but may be kept in archived/backup systems for up to 5 years to comply with legal obligations (accounting, tax, dispute resolution).
