2 · Terms of use

Access to this site is free and requires no registration. By browsing it you accept these terms.

The content, meaning texts, design, code, logo and graphic material, belongs to its owner unless expressly stated otherwise. You may quote it, citing the source; you may not reproduce it in full or use it for commercial purposes without written permission.

Third-party trademarks and logos appearing on the site belong to their respective owners and are shown for information only, to indicate technologies used in real projects. Their presence does not imply any commercial relationship, sponsorship, official certification or link with those companies.

The information published is general in nature and does not constitute professional advice for a specific case. Every company is different and what is described here does not replace an analysis of your situation.

This site contains links to external pages, such as LinkedIn. No responsibility is accepted for the content or the privacy policies of those third parties.

3 · Privacy policy

This section complies with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and with Spain's Organic Law 3/2018 on the Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights (LOPDGDD).

Who processes your data

The data controller is Etechan Butt, with the identifying details given in section 1. No data protection officer has been appointed, as none is required.

What data is collected and where from

Only what you write in the website's forms or send me by WhatsApp: name, email, phone and, optionally, company and the description of the process you want reviewed. No special category data is collected, and you are asked not to include any in the free text either.

No databases are bought and no profiles are built. Visitor analytics (section 4) is only switched on if you accept it.

What it is used for

• Replying to your request and telling you whether I can help or not.
• Preparing and coordinating the call or the working session, if you decide to go ahead.
• Maintaining the contractual relationship and meeting the resulting tax obligations, if we end up working together.

Your data is not used to send you advertising. The mailing list for new cases is separate, only if you sign up, and you unsubscribe by replying «no».

On what legal basis

Your consent, which you give by ticking the box on the form (Article 6.1.a GDPR), and taking pre-contractual steps at your request (Article 6.1.b). If we sign a contract, the basis becomes the performance of that contract (Article 6.1.b) and compliance with legal obligations (Article 6.1.c).

How long it is kept

If we don't go ahead, the request is kept for a maximum of twelve months from the last contact and then deleted. If we work together, the data is kept for the duration of the professional relationship and, once it ends, for the legal retention periods for tax and accounting purposes: six years under the Spanish Commercial Code.

Who it is shared with

Nobody, except the providers strictly necessary for the website and email to work, who act as data processors under a signed contract:

• Hostinger International Ltd., the site's hosting provider.
• Google Ireland Limited, for email, for receiving and storing the requests that come in through the forms and, only if you accept cookies, for visitor analytics (Google Analytics 4).

Data is not sold or passed on to third parties for commercial purposes. There are no international transfers outside the European Economic Area beyond those made by these providers under the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

What rights you have

You can exercise your rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction of processing and portability at any time, and withdraw any consent you have given, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out before.

To exercise them, just write to hola@etechanbutt.com saying which one you want to exercise. You will get a reply within one month at most.

If you believe your data is not being handled properly, you can complain to the Spanish Data Protection Agency: www.aepd.es, C/ Jorge Juan 6, 28001 Madrid.

Security

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are applied to protect the information: an encrypted HTTPS connection, restricted access to the data and backups. No system is infallible, but no more information is kept than necessary, nor for longer than it should be.

4 · Cookies

This website only uses analytics cookies, and only if you accept them in the notice that appears when you arrive. If you don't accept them or you close the notice, no cookie is set and the website works exactly the same. There are no advertising cookies and no cross-site tracking.

If you accept, the Google Analytics 4 cookies from Google Ireland Limited are set:

They show which pages are read, where visitors arrive from (search engine, email, link) and whether the forms and contact buttons are used. Google Analytics 4 does not store the full IP address and the data is not used for advertising. You can change your mind whenever you like from the «Cookies» link in the page footer, or by deleting the cookies in your browser.

The site also has its own visit counter that uses no cookies and stores neither the IP address nor any identifier. Each page tells the site's own server which page it is, whether it is the first page of the visit, which site the visitor came from and through which campaign, and the server only adds up counters per day. That shows how many visits there are, what gets read and how many people accept or decline this notice, but it cannot recognise anyone, which is why it needs no consent.

Apart from that, the only things stored in your browser, using the device's own local storage, are your cookie choice, whether you have closed the X-ray notice and, if you arrive from a campaign email, which email you came from. That origin only leaves your device if you send a form, which carries it so I know how you found me, or if you accept analytics. On the site owner's own browsers a flag is also stored so that his visits don't count in the analytics. Fonts are served from this same server, not from Google Fonts, so loading the page does not send your IP address to any third party.

5 · Changes and applicable law

This notice may be updated if the services or the regulations change. The version in force is always the one published on this page, with its update date at the bottom.

These terms are governed by Spanish law. For any dispute, the parties submit to the courts of the owner's place of residence, unless consumer protection rules establish a different jurisdiction.
