Privacy policy
In short: this is a static portfolio site. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics or tracking, has no forms, and asks you for nothing. Contact happens over email only.
1.Data controller
- Name: Bálint Fazekas
- Email: fazekasbalint003@gmail.com
- Website: balintfazekas.hu
I am not required to appoint a data protection officer and have not appointed one. For any privacy matter, write to the address above.
2.What data is processed
| Data | Purpose | Legal basis | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Server logs (IP address, user agent, request time, requested URL) | Operating the site, detecting outages and abuse (e.g. denial-of-service attempts) | Legitimate interest — GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) | Per the hosting provider's log retention, typically days to months |
| Email enquiries (name, email address, message content) | Replying, quoting, preparing a possible engagement | Pre-contractual steps and legitimate interest — GDPR Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) | Up to 2 years after the enquiry is closed, or until you ask for deletion |
Nothing else is collected: there is no contact form, no newsletter, no sign-up, no profiling and no automated decision-making.
3.Cookies and local storage
The site sets no cookies — none of its own, none from third parties, and none for analytics or marketing.
One technical preference is kept in your browser's localStorage: the
theme key, which remembers your light/dark choice. It never leaves your
device, is never transmitted, and cannot identify you. Clearing your browser data
removes it.
4.Processors and transfers
- Hosting: Rackhost Zrt. (Tisza Lajos körút 41, 6722 Szeged, Hungary; company reg. 06-10-000489, VAT 25333572-2-06) — serving the site and handling server logs. The servers operate in Hungary, within the European Union, so no transfer to a third country takes place.
- Email: Google Ireland Ltd. (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) — storage of email sent to me.
Beyond this, your data is not shared with third parties, never sold, and never used for marketing.
5.External services and links
Fonts are self-hosted (no Google Fonts or other third-party CDN request), so viewing the site sends no data to third parties.
The portfolio's project demos run at separate addresses hosted by Vercel Inc.
(USA) — *.vercel.app — and the social links point to GitHub, LinkedIn
and Upwork. This policy does not cover them: if you click through, that provider's
own privacy policy applies. Until you click, your browser never contacts them.
6.Security
The site is served over HTTPS only, enforced with HSTS, alongside a strict Content-Security-Policy and further security headers. The site is static: there is no database and no user account behind it.
7.Your rights
Under the GDPR you may request at any time:
- access to the data held about you,
- rectification of it,
- erasure ("the right to be forgotten"),
- restriction of processing,
- data portability,
- and you may object to processing based on legitimate interest.
Send your request to fazekasbalint003@gmail.com — I reply within 30 days of receipt at the latest.
8.Complaints
If you believe your rights have been infringed, you may lodge a complaint with the Hungarian supervisory authority:
Hungarian National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of
Information (NAIH)
Address: Falk Miksa utca 9–11, 1055 Budapest, Hungary
Postal address: 1363 Budapest, Pf. 9
Phone: +36 (1) 391-1400
Email: ugyfelszolgalat@naih.hu
Web: naih.hu
You may also bring the matter before a court, including the court with jurisdiction over your place of residence or stay. If you live in another EU member state, you may also complain to your local supervisory authority.
9.Changes to this policy
I may update this policy — for example when the site gains a new feature. The current version is always available on this page, with its effective date shown at the top.
