Privacy Policy
How this site collects, uses, and protects your information. Written in plain English, kept short and honest.
1. About this Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Teodora Duric ("I", "me", "my") collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you visit teodoraduric.com (the "Site"), get in touch via email, or interact with content on this portfolio. The Site is operated as a personal professional portfolio and is not a commercial service.
2. Information I collect
I aim to collect as little personal information as reasonably possible. The categories of data that may be collected include:
- Contact information you choose to share - such as your name, email address, company, and the content of any message you send me.
- Technical data - including browser type, device type, operating system, referring URL, and the pages you visit on this site.
- Analytics data - anonymised or aggregated metrics about how visitors use the Site (e.g. page views, time on page, exit pages).
I do not knowingly collect data from children under the age of 16.
3. How I use your information
I use collected data only for the following purposes:
- To respond to enquiries you send me via email, contact form, or LinkedIn.
- To understand how visitors find and use this site, so I can improve its content and accessibility.
- To comply with applicable legal obligations.
I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. I do not use your data for targeted advertising.
4. Legal basis for processing (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), my legal basis for processing your data depends on the data concerned and the context in which I collect it. In most cases, the basis is one of the following:
- Consent - when you contact me voluntarily.
- Legitimate interest - to operate, secure, and improve this site.
- Legal obligation - when required by applicable law.
5. Cookies and similar technologies
This site may use a small number of cookies and similar technologies for purposes such as remembering your preferences and analysing site traffic. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies; doing so will not break the core functionality of this site.
6. Data sharing and third parties
I do not share your personal data with third parties except where strictly necessary for the operation of the Site, such as:
- Hosting providers (to make the Site available).
- Analytics providers (in anonymised or aggregated form).
- Email providers (when you send me a message).
These providers are bound by their own privacy obligations and are only permitted to process data for the purposes described in this Policy.
7. Data retention
I retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy, or to comply with legal or regulatory requirements. Email correspondence is typically retained for as long as it remains professionally relevant.
8. Your rights
Under applicable data-protection law, you have the right to:
- Request access to the personal data I hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
- Object to or restrict certain types of processing.
- Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.
- Lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact me using the details below.
9. Security
I take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, however, and I cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Changes to this Policy
I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The most current version will always be posted on this page, with the "Last updated" date at the top of the document. I encourage you to review it periodically.
