Privacy Policy
In this policy, I specify: the types of data I collect and the reasons for collecting them, the ways in which your data is processed, and the rights you have regarding your data.
This policy applies to this website (samirarehmert.com) as well as all publications, products, apps and websites built or maintained by me :

This Website
When you visit one of my websites, I am not interested in finding out who you are, and I do my best to ensure that the technology I use does not enable others to find out who you are. My tech stack does not expose you to tools or services that big tech markets as “free” in exchange for user data.
I’m happy to say that my site does not embed any third-party services that track your web activities. There are no third-party and not even first-party cookies. I can not identify you across multiple visits.
My website is hosted with Hetzner in Nuremberg (Germany) and therefore under EU data protection laws. Hetzner stores some visitor information in the form of server log files. This includes, but not limited to, the visitor’s IP address and time of visit. After a maximum of 14 days, these logs are deleted.
This site enforce HTTPS encryption.
Voluntary Corresponcence
When you get in touch with me with a question or to ask for help, I keep that correspondence, including your email address, so that I have a history of past correspondence to reference if you reach out in the future. I delete old correspondence on resolved topics from my archive once a year, unless (1) you and I have an ongoing business relationship or friendship, (2) unless you have expressly consented to further use your data and (3) unless the correspondence falls under commercial or tax retention obligations.
My email is also hosted by Hetzner.
My email provider’s tech infrastructure will process and store whatever you send me and whatever I send you (obviously). Also please keep in mind that email is still not end-to-end encrypted by default.
Legal basis for processing your data for this purpose is GDPR article 6, section 1 (a), (b), and (f).
Your Rights
You have the right to request all personal information I hold about you. You can ask me to correct, update or delete this information at any time. Please contact me and we’ll work it out.
If you think that the measures I take to protect your privacy are insufficient or if you have other concerns about my handling of your data, please contact me. You have the right to file an official complaint with the German and European data protection authorities.
Future Changes
This privacy policy is subject to change, so I encourage you to review it periodically. Rest assured that while there may be changes or additions to my service providers, my commitment to protecting your privacy will remain unchanged.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
