1. Who we are

This website is operated by Mar Ferre. Our website address is https://marferre.com/.

If you have questions about this policy or about personal data we hold, contact us using the form at /contact/ or email [email protected].

2. Scope

This policy applies to information collected through the Site, including pages you browse and messages you send through our contact form. It does not cover third-party websites that may be linked from our content. Those sites have their own privacy practices.

3. Information we collect

Information you provide

When you use the contact form, we collect the details you submit, typically:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Message content

Do not include sensitive personal information in the message field unless it is necessary for your enquiry.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, our hosting and security providers may automatically process technical data such as:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device and operating system information
  • Referring URL and pages requested
  • Date and time of access
  • General diagnostic or security logs used to keep the Site available and protected

This information is used for security, abuse prevention, troubleshooting, and basic traffic understanding. It is not used to build a marketing profile of you.

Anti-spam signals on the contact form

Our contact form includes basic anti-spam checks (for example, a honeypot field, a short time-on-page requirement, and a browser-generated token). These checks are used only to reduce automated abuse and are not used for advertising.

4. How we use information

We use the information described above to:

  • Respond to enquiries you send us
  • Operate, maintain, and secure the Site
  • Diagnose technical issues and prevent spam, fraud, or abuse
  • Comply with legal obligations where applicable

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use contact-form submissions for unrelated marketing lists.

5. Legal bases (where applicable)

If you are in a region that requires a legal basis for processing (such as the EEA/UK), we generally rely on:

  • Legitimate interests — operating a secure website, preventing abuse, and responding to business enquiries
  • Consent — where you voluntarily submit information through the contact form
  • Legal obligation — where we must retain or disclose information to comply with law

6. Cookies and similar technologies

The Site is primarily static content. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party ad trackers on these pages.

Some essential or functional technologies may still be used by the browser, CDN, or security layer (for example Cloudflare) to deliver the Site reliably. These may include strictly necessary cookies or similar storage needed for security and network performance.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect Site functionality.

7. Embedded and third-party services

We may use trusted service providers to help run the Site, including:

  • Hosting / server infrastructure — to store and serve Site files
  • Content delivery and security (e.g. Cloudflare) — to cache content, improve performance, and help protect against abuse
  • Email delivery — so messages from the contact form can reach our inbox (submissions are sent to [email protected])
  • Web fonts (e.g. Google Fonts) — to load fonts used in the Site design. When fonts are loaded from a third-party provider, that provider may receive your IP address and related technical data

These providers process information only as needed to provide their services to us. Embedded or linked content from other websites behaves as if you visited those websites directly and may collect data under their own policies.

8. Sharing of information

We may share information only in these limited cases:

  • With service providers who help us host, secure, deliver, or operate the Site and email
  • If required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request
  • To protect the rights, safety, and security of Mar Ferre, our users, or the public
  • In connection with a business transfer (such as a merger or asset sale), where permitted by law

We do not sell or rent personal information to third parties for their own marketing.

9. How long we keep information

Contact-form messages are retained as long as needed to respond to your enquiry and for reasonable record-keeping, security, or legal purposes, then deleted or anonymized when no longer needed.

Server and security logs are retained for a limited period consistent with operational and security needs.

10. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information, including HTTPS encryption in transit and access controls on systems that process messages. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. International transfers

Our service providers may process data in countries other than your own. Where required, we take steps designed to ensure appropriate safeguards for such transfers.

12. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:

  • Request access to personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of personal data
  • Object to or restrict certain processing
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
  • Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

To exercise these rights, contact us via the contact form or [email protected]. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.

13. Children’s privacy

The Site is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Site, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

14. Links to other sites

The Site may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. Review their privacy policies before providing personal information.

15. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Continued use of the Site after an update means you acknowledge the revised policy.
