When you submit the form, we process:

Form submissions are forwarded to our email address and are not stored separately within the website.
We process this information in order to respond to your enquiry and communicate with you.
Where your enquiry relates to a potential contract or service, processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. For other enquiries, processing is based on our legitimate interest in responding to communications addressed to us pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

6. Newsletter
You can subscribe to the Cadence Creatives newsletter through our website.
For newsletter distribution and subscriber management, we use Brevo.
When you subscribe, we process your email address and information necessary to manage and document your subscription.
Newsletter subscriptions are based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Double Opt-in
We use a double opt-in procedure.
After submitting your email address, you will receive a confirmation email. Your subscription becomes active only after you confirm your subscription through the link contained in that email.
Information relating to the subscription and confirmation process may be retained in order to document that consent was provided.
Newsletter Analytics
We use anonymised newsletter statistics provided by Brevo to understand the overall performance of our newsletters.
These statistics may include aggregated information such as delivery, open and click rates. Where available, email tracking is configured so that opening and clicking information used for these statistics is not associated with individual subscribers.
We use these aggregated statistics to understand which content is relevant to our audience and to improve future newsletters.
Data Processing by Brevo
Subscriber information is processed by Brevo for the purpose of managing subscriptions and distributing our newsletter.
According to Brevo, the servers on which its databases are processed and stored are located within the European Union.
You can withdraw your consent and unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the unsubscribe link included in each newsletter or by contacting us at hi@cadence-creatives.com.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
7. Website Analytics and Tracking
We currently do not use website analytics services, advertising trackers, marketing pixels or comparable tracking technologies.
Newsletter analytics described above relate to newsletters sent through Brevo and do not constitute general tracking of your activity on the Cadence Creatives website.
8. Cookies and Consent Preferences
We do not currently use analytics, advertising or marketing cookies on this website.
We may use a strictly necessary cookie or similar storage technology solely to remember your privacy and consent preferences. This prevents the consent notice from being displayed unnecessarily on every visit and allows us to respect the choices you have made.
Such storage is used only for consent management and is not used for analytics, advertising, profiling or marketing.
Further information about the technologies used and their duration is provided in our Cookie Policy and Cookie Settings.
9. External Links and Social Media
This website may contain links to third-party websites and platforms, including Instagram, YouTube, Spotify and Strava.
Where these services are provided solely as external links, no content from the respective platform is loaded through the Cadence Creatives website.
When you follow an external link, you leave our website. Any subsequent processing of personal data is subject to the privacy practices of the respective third-party provider.
10. Embedded Media
We currently do not embed third-party media such as YouTube videos, Spotify players or Instagram content directly into this website.
We may introduce embedded media in the future, particularly in Projects, Field Notes or other editorial content.
Where the loading of embedded third-party content requires consent under applicable law, the content will be blocked until the required consent has been provided.
This Privacy Policy and our cookie information will be updated when such services are introduced.
11. Recipients and Service Providers
We use service providers where necessary to operate the website, provide technical infrastructure, process enquiries and distribute our newsletter.
These currently include our website hosting provider Hostinger and our newsletter service provider Brevo.
Where service providers process personal data on our behalf, appropriate data processing arrangements are used where required.
We do not sell personal data.
12. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or for as long as statutory retention obligations apply.
Newsletter subscriber data is retained for as long as the newsletter subscription remains active or as otherwise necessary to document consent and compliance with legal obligations.
When the relevant purpose no longer applies and no statutory obligation or other legal basis requires continued storage, the data will be deleted.
13. Your Rights
Subject to the requirements of applicable data protection law, you have the right to:
- request access to your personal data;
- request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data;
- request deletion of your personal data;
- request restriction of processing;
- object to processing based on legitimate interests;
- receive personal data in a portable format where the legal requirements are met; and
- withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

14. Right to Lodge a Complaint
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data infringes applicable data protection law.
