Privacy Policy — DeCEL

1. General Information on Data Processing

DeCEL (“we”, “us”, “our”) processes personal data of users exclusively to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and the information, services and functionalities offered. When visiting our website or communicating with us, the following types of personal data may be processed:

  • IP address of the user
  • Browser used (type, version, language)
  • Operating system used
  • Internet service provider of the user
  • Date and time of access to our website
  • Web pages viewed on our website
  • Website from which the user has accessed our website
 

The processing and temporary storage of this data is necessary to enable the delivery of our website to your device and to ensure the security and functionality of the site. The data will not be used for advertising, direct marketing, or market research unless consent is obtained.

We process personal data only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our services, and the data is deleted once the purpose for which it was collected no longer applies.

 

2. Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

Where required by applicable laws, the processing of personal data on our website is carried out with your consent. In some cases, we may process data without consent if it is necessary to fulfil a contract, to comply with legal obligations, or based on legitimate interests (e.g., ensuring the security of the website and improving its functionality).

 

3. Cookies

We use cookies in several places on our website. Cookies are small text files placed on your device by your browser that help us make the website more user-friendly, e.g., by storing language settings or session information.

You can choose to deactivate or restrict cookies in your browser settings, but some features of the website may not function fully if cookies are disabled.

 

4. Web Analysis & Plugins

We use industry-standard web analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to analyse how visitors interact with our site. These tools collect data such as page views, time spent on pages, and device and browser details. This information helps us improve the quality and user experience of our site.

Web analysis data is generally processed on the basis of your consent. You can opt out of these analytics tracking features via your browser settings or other available mechanisms.

 

5. E-mail Contact

If you contact us via the contact form or by email (e.g., to hello@buildwithdecel.com), your personal data (such as name, email address, phone number and message details) will be stored by us. This data is processed for the purpose of responding to your enquiry and will not be used for any unrelated purposes.

Personal data provided via email is deleted once communication has concluded and it is no longer required for legal, accounting, or contractual reasons.

 

6. Newsletter (If Applicable)

If you subscribe to a newsletter through our website, we will process your email address and any other information you provide for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. We will only process this data with your consent, and you can withdraw consent at any time using the unsubscribe link in the newsletter.

 

7. Social Media & Third-Party Services

Our website may include links to third-party social media platforms or external services. DeCEL does not control the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy statements of any third-party sites you visit.

Where third-party tools (such as social embedded content or video players) collect personal data, this occurs under the third party’s own privacy policy.

 

8. Data Recipient and Transfer

Personal data submitted via this website may be processed by DeCEL team members authorised to handle such data for the purposes outlined here. Where external providers (e.g., analytics services) are used, data may be shared with these providers under appropriate data processing agreements.

Personal data may be transferred outside your country for the purpose of delivering our services or using third-party tools. In doing so, we will ensure safeguards appropriate to the legal context.

 

9. Data Storage and Deletion

We retain your personal data only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Data such as IP addresses stored in log files may be retained for limited technical and security purposes before deletion.

 

10. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, or unauthorised disclosure or access. These measures are regularly reviewed and updated in line with technological developments and legal requirements.
