Privacy Policy
This section explains how I collect, use, and protect your personal data. I'm based in Switzerland and act as the data controller. I process data in line with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP), and the EU GDPR where it applies to visitors in the EU/EEA.
When you use the contact form I collect your name, email, phone, company, and message. When you browse, limited technical data (such as IP address, browser, and pages viewed) is collected by my hosting and analytics tools. I use this information to:
- respond to your enquiry and discuss potential engagements or speaking requests;
- operate, secure, and improve the site;
- send newsletter updates, where you've subscribed.
I never sell your data or share it for advertising. You have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your data, to object to or restrict processing, and to withdraw consent at any time—just email me at [your email]. You may also complain to the Swiss FDPIC or your local EU/EEA authority.
