Privacy policy

Data controller

The controller of the personal data collected on this site is:

• Owner: Juan José Cirera Ortiz
• Trading name: Studio Italica
• Tax ID (NIF): 77843834N
• Address: Calle Rioja, 13, 1.º C, 41001 Sevilla
• Email: hola@studioitalica.com

What data is used and why

Only the data you choose to share is used, plus the minimum needed to keep the site running securely:

• Contact form: your name, email address, project type and message, used to reply to your enquiry and, where relevant, to prepare a quote. The message is delivered by email to Juan José Cirera Ortiz. No copy is sent to you and the site does not store it in any database.
• Call bookings: the Cal.com calendar is not loaded until you click the button to show it. The details you enter when booking (name, email and notes) are processed by Cal.com to manage the appointment, and the booking is synced to the Google Calendar of Juan José Cirera Ortiz.
• Server logs: when you visit the site, the server briefly records technical data such as your IP address, for security purposes and to prevent abuse of the contact form.
• Email: if you write to us directly at hola@studioitalica.com, your address and the content of your message are used to reply to you, with the same retention periods and rights as the contact form.

Legal basis

Replying to your enquiry is based on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you give by ticking the privacy box when you send the form. Where your enquiry is about hiring services, processing is also based on taking steps at your request before entering into a contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).

Server logs are based on the legitimate interest in keeping the site secure and preventing abuse (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Service providers and recipients

Your data is never sold or shared with third parties unless the law requires it. The following providers are involved in running the site:

• Hetzner Online GmbH (Germany): website hosting on servers located in the European Union.
• Resend, Inc. (United States): email delivery of contact form messages.
• IONOS SE (Germany): the mailbox where messages are received and answered.
• Cal.com, Inc. (United States): call booking management, under its own privacy policy.
• Google Ireland Ltd. (Ireland): the calendar where bookings are synced, and Google Meet, where video calls take place.

International transfers

Resend and Cal.com are based in the United States, so some data may be processed outside the European Economic Area. These transfers are covered by the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission and, where applicable, by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

How long data is kept

Form messages are kept for as long as needed to reply to you. If no working relationship follows, they are deleted within 12 months at the latest. If one does, they are kept for as long as it lasts and then for the statutory limitation periods that apply to tax and commercial obligations.

Server logs are kept for a short period and deleted regularly.

Your rights

You can exercise your rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction of processing and data portability, and withdraw your consent at any time, by emailing hola@studioitalica.com. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before.

If you believe your data has not been handled properly, you can lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos, www.aepd.es).

Children

This site is not aimed at children under 14. If you are under that age, please do not send your details through the form or the booking calendar.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated if the services used or the applicable law change. The date of the latest update is shown on this page.
