Privacy policy
In short: this website uses no cookies and no trackers. Information you send through the contact form is only used to answer your question.
Draft: this text still needs to be reviewed by a legal advisor before publication.

3. Cookies and local storage
This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics, advertising or tracking services. Fonts are served from this server, not from third parties.
Two small preferences are stored locally in your browser only and never sent to a server: your chosen theme (light/dark, only after you click the toggle yourself) and whether the short intro animation has already played during your visit. You can clear these at any time in your browser settings.
4. Who is data shared with?
- Cloudflare, Inc.: website hosting and security.
- Resend: delivering contact form messages to my inbox.
- [Email provider]: storing email correspondence.
- [Accountant]: client billing data only.
Data processing agreements are in place with these processors. Where data is processed outside the European Economic Area (for example in the USA), this happens under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
5. Your rights
You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection. Send your request to hallo@cyberforge.be; you will receive a reply within one month.
If you are not satisfied, you can lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority, Rue de la Presse 35, 1000 Brussels, www.dataprotectionauthority.be.
