2. Hosting and server log data

This website is hosted by Hostinger International Limited, 61 Lordou Vironos Street, 6023 Larnaca, Cyprus. When the website is accessed, technical information needed to deliver and secure the website may be processed by the hosting provider. This may include the IP address, date and time of access, requested resource, browser and device information, referrer information and technical log data.

The processing is carried out for the secure, stable and efficient operation of the website on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where Hostinger acts as a processor, processing is governed by the applicable data-processing arrangements.

Further information is available in Hostinger's privacy policy.

3. Contact by email, telephone or WhatsApp

If you contact me by email, telephone or WhatsApp, I process the information you provide in order to respond to your enquiry and communicate with you. Depending on the context, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR for contractual or pre-contractual communication, or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for other legitimate communication.

When you use WhatsApp, data is also processed by the provider of WhatsApp under its own privacy terms. The WhatsApp link on this website opens the external WhatsApp service; WhatsApp content is not embedded into this website.

4. Cookies, analytics and marketing

This website does not use web analytics, advertising pixels, behavioural profiling, newsletter tracking or embedded social-media feeds. The website does not intentionally set non-essential cookies for analytics or marketing purposes. For that reason, no consent banner is currently displayed.

Technical mechanisms that are strictly necessary for hosting, security or delivery of the website may be used by the hosting infrastructure where required.

5. External links

The website contains links to third-party services, including book retailers, Goodreads, LinkedIn and WhatsApp. No content from those services is embedded on this website. When you follow an external link, the destination provider processes data under its own privacy policy. I do not control that processing.

6. Storage periods

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose, for website security and operation, or for applicable legal retention obligations. Technical log data is retained according to the hosting provider's operational and security requirements. Correspondence is retained only for as long as needed to handle the enquiry and any related legal obligations.

7. Your rights

Under the GDPR, subject to the applicable legal requirements, you have rights including access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection to processing. Where processing is based on consent, you also have the right to withdraw that consent for the future.

To exercise your rights, contact contact@ensiehkhosroshahi.com.

8. Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data-protection supervisory authority. For Baden-Württemberg, information is available from the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information Baden-Württemberg at baden-wuerttemberg.datenschutz.de.

9. Encryption

This website uses HTTPS / TLS encryption to protect data transmitted between your browser and the website.

10. Changes to this privacy policy

This privacy policy may be updated if the website, its services or the applicable legal requirements change. The version published on this page is the current version.
