Privacy Policy — Minimalny

This page explains what personal data Minimalny collects, why, and what you can do about it. Minimalny is a curated gallery of websites; it has no accounts, no comments and no tracking beyond what is described here.

Who is responsible

The data controller is Pasquale Gallo, VAT IT03599370362, Modena, Italy. You can reach him at hello@minimalny.com.

What we collect and why

Visiting the site

Minimalny is a static website hosted by Hostinger (Hostinger International Ltd, Cyprus, with servers in the EU). Like every web server, the host keeps technical logs (IP address, browser, pages requested, time) for security and to keep the service running. Legal basis: legitimate interest. Retention: as set by the host, typically a few weeks.

Analytics

With your consent we use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages and listed sites get visited. Analytics runs only after you click "Accept" in the cookie banner; if you decline, nothing is loaded and no analytics cookie is set. IP addresses are anonymised. Data is processed by Google Ireland Ltd and may be transferred to the United States under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. Legal basis: consent, which you can withdraw at any time from "Cookie settings" in the footer. Retention: 14 months on Google's side.

Submitting a site

When you suggest a site through the form we receive the name, URL, category and location you enter, plus your email address, and we keep them in our mailbox (hosted by Infomaniak, Switzerland) to review the suggestion and reply if needed. The suggested site may be added to the gallery with a screenshot; your email address is never published. Legal basis: performance of your request. Retention: up to 12 months after the review.

If you subscribe, your email address is stored by SendFox (Sumo Group Inc., USA) to send you the newsletter. Subscription requires confirmation by email (double opt-in); every message has an unsubscribe link. Legal basis: consent. Retention: until you unsubscribe.

Listed sites

The gallery shows the public name, URL, location and a screenshot of websites. This information is already public; it is published under our legitimate interest in running a design gallery. If you own a listed site and want it changed or removed, write to hello@minimalny.com and it will be done promptly.

Cookies

See the Cookie Policy for the full list. In short: one technical entry in your browser storage remembers your cookie choice, and Google Analytics cookies are set only after consent.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you can ask to access, correct, delete or export your data, restrict or object to its processing, and withdraw consent at any time. Write to hello@minimalny.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Italian supervisory authority, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali (www.garanteprivacy.it).

Changes

This policy may be updated when the site changes; the date at the top tells you when. Substantial changes will be noted on this page.
