Using a contact form
When you send an email via a contact form, only your email address is required to answer your message.
Your message(s) sent via a contact form will be stored on this website’s server for a maximum of 7 days. This measure ensures that no message(s) get lost in a spam folder.
Your message will be transmitted via TLS.
Your email address will only be used to answer your message. After the correspondence is concluded, your email(s) and your data will be deleted within a week.
Concluded means that all the issues you presented in your message(s) have been addressed.
Email addresses will not be stored for future use or shared with third parties, unless there are legal reasons to do so.
Downloading a free pdf
All free downloads can be downloaded without transmitting any data.
The statistics programme Statify only register that someone visited a download page but not whether a file has been downloaded. No IP addresses or other user data is requested, recorded or saved.
Supporting the easy town projects or contributions
It is up to you how much personal data you want to share when contributing to a website or story, or when supporting the easy town projects.
When you do share personal data, you can indicate whether your data should be deleted within seven days after the reception of your data, or whether it should be kept for further cooperation.
Whenever financial transactions are involved, a copy of those transactions will be kept for tax purposes.
In no event will your personal data be shared with third parties unless legal actions are required.
Feedback
Feedback is anonymised to protect the customer’s privacy.
You could argue that that makes the feedback less convincing, but if I wanted to fake feedbacks, ratings or comments, I could invent names, too.
If you send a feedback or a rating, your message or part of your message might be used on this website or another website by Charlie Alice Raya.
If your message is not in English, a translation might be used.
Your email and/or any other personal data will be deleted unless legal actions are required.
It’s not happening yet, but at some point a witness routine will be included. That means two other people will see the original statement/message/feedback/rating before it gets online and before the original is deleted. This is purely for credibility reasons.
Comments
You can send a comment or a review via email.
Cookies, tracking, profiling, analysing, Google, social media & Co
This website doesn’t use third-party cookies. It doesn’t track, profile or analyse any data. This website doesn’t use any Google tools, ad providers or social media links.
There is no tracking or analysing involved.
Saying all this, if you are logged into your Google, Instagram, Tik Tok or a similar accounts while visiting this website, those companies will collect data about your activities on this website unless you have changed your privacy settings in your social media account in a way that doesn’t allow for tracking.
Embedded content from other websites
This website doesn’t use any embedded content from other websites unless it is from another easy town website.
Statistics
This website uses the statistics programme Statify.
Statify doesn’t collect any personal data and only counts visits. It also deletes all data older than fourteen days automatically.
Statify collects the following anonymised data:
- hits per page / post
- top referrers
This means, your visits to this website are anonymous unless you purchase an e-book, or send an email.
Why use a statistics programme?
It’s interesting and helpful to see which pages and posts get the most attention.
Hosting
This website is hosted by the Strato AG. Strato saves your IP-address in a log file when you visit this website.
Your IP-address will be kept for a maximum of seven days. This measure helps Strato to recognise and block attacks on the server.
In addition Strato keeps a statistic about the website. IPs are anonymised.
Sharing your data
There are only a few cases in which data will be shared and that is if legal actions are required in one or more of the following cases:
- copyright violations
- legal disputes
- fraud
- harassment
- offence
- and any other case which might require legal actions
Other than that, there will be no sharing of data.
For how long is your data retained?
Messages and forms will be deleted as soon as our correspondence or your purchase is completed. Usually within seven days unless those messages are part of an on-going cooperation.
Your rights
If you wish to view, correct, object, limit, or transfer any of this data, please send your request via email.
How is your data protected?
This website uses TLS to ensure the safe transmission of your data. The use of https:// instead of http:// and the lock-symbol indicate that TLS is active.
All invoices are stored on an external and password-protected hard drive.
As the easy town projects grow, this will probably be reorganised over the next years to ensure the lasting safety of your data.
