This Privacy Policy explains how Zameli Geyava ("we", "us", "our"), operating the website zameli-geyava.info, collects, uses, stores, and protects personal data. We operate in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the General Data Protection Regulation, "GDPR") and Romanian Law No. 190/2018 on measures for the implementation of GDPR.
We take data protection seriously. This document is written in plain language because we believe you should be able to understand exactly what happens to your information without needing a legal background.

For the purposes of GDPR, Zameli Geyava is the data controller for personal data collected through this website.
What Data We Collect
We collect personal data only when you actively provide it to us. This happens in the following situations:
Contact form submissions: When you use the contact form on this website, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and the content of your message. You provide this data voluntarily.
Technical data: When you visit our website, standard server logs may record your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit, and the time and date of your visit. This data is processed for security and technical maintenance purposes.
Cookie data: We use cookies on this website. Please see our separate Cookie Policy for full details of what cookies we use and why. Your cookie preferences are stored locally in your browser.
Why We Use Your Data
We process personal data for the following purposes:
Responding to enquiries: When you contact us, we use your name, email, and message content to respond to your question. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in responding to people who contact us, and in some cases, the performance of a pre-contractual relationship (Article 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR).
Website security and maintenance: Technical log data is processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in maintaining a secure and functional website (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Cookie-based analytics: Where you have consented to analytics cookies, we may process anonymised usage data to understand how visitors use our website. The legal basis is your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time through our cookie settings.
How Long We Keep Your Data
Contact form data is retained for as long as necessary to respond to your enquiry and for a reasonable period thereafter in case of follow-up questions. We do not retain contact data indefinitely. Technical server logs are retained for a maximum of 90 days for security purposes. Cookie consent preferences are stored in your browser until you clear them or they expire.
Who We Share Data With
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We may share data with third-party service providers who assist in operating this website (such as hosting providers), but only where those providers have appropriate data protection agreements in place. Any such providers act as data processors under our instruction and may not use your data for their own purposes.
We may disclose data if required by Romanian law, court order, or other legal obligation.
Your Rights Under GDPR
Under the GDPR and Romanian Law No. 190/2018, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
Right of access: You can ask us to confirm whether we hold data about you and to provide a copy of that data.
Right to rectification: You can ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
Right to erasure: You can ask us to delete your data where there is no longer a legitimate reason for us to hold it.
Right to restriction: You can ask us to restrict processing of your data in certain circumstances.
Right to portability: Where processing is based on consent or contract, you can ask us to provide your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
Right to object: You can object to processing based on legitimate interests.
Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days. If you believe we have not handled your data correctly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Romanian National Supervisory Authority for Personal Data Processing (Autoritatea Nationala de Supraveghere a Prelucrarii Datelor cu Caracter Personal, ANSPDCP), at www.dataprotection.ro.
Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These include secure hosting, access controls, and regular security reviews. No method of data transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take our obligations seriously.
International Transfers
We do not routinely transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area. If any transfer is required, we will ensure it is protected by appropriate safeguards in accordance with GDPR requirements, such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the website after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
