Welcome to All Days Tech ("website", "site" or "my site"). This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, and protect information when you visit alldaystech.com. I operate this website from Belgium and it is intended for an international audience interested in technology guides.

By using this website, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

2. Data Controller

The data controller responsible for this website is:

• Name: Norbert Sowinski
• Country of residence: Belgium
• Contact: via the email address published on the Contact page or at .

3. Information I Collect

This website is a static informational site and does not require user registration or the creation of an account. I collect only a limited amount of data, which can include:

3.1 Information you provide voluntarily

• Contact emails: If you contact me (for example via the Contact page or by email), I process the information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, and the content of your message.

3.2 Information collected automatically

• Usage and analytics data: When you visit the site, I may collect information about your interactions with the site, such as the pages you visit, the time spent on each page, and general interaction patterns. This is collected through cookies and similar technologies and is processed in an aggregated and anonymized form where possible.
• Technical data: Such as your browser type, operating system, device type, and approximate region (based on IP address). IP addresses are processed by my analytics and security tools and may be anonymized or truncated where applicable.

3.3 Cookies and similar technologies

I use cookies and similar technologies to run the website, measure performance, analyze traffic, and show advertising, including personalized ads where you have given consent. More details about the specific cookies used are available via the cookie banner and preferences panel.

4. How I Use Your Information

I use the information described above for the following purposes:

• To operate and maintain the basic functionality of the website.
• To respond to your inquiries and provide support when you contact me.
• To analyze traffic and understand how visitors use the site so I can improve content, usability, and performance.
• To display advertising, including personalized advertising when you consent, and to measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns.
• To protect the security and integrity of the website (for example, detecting spam, abuse, or malicious activity).

5. Cookies, Consent, and Categories

I use a cookie consent banner provided by Silktide to let you control which categories of cookies are used. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the cookie icon shown on the site.

The main categories of cookies used on this website are:

• Necessary cookies: Required for the website to function properly and to remember your cookie preferences. These cannot be switched off.
• Analytics cookies: Help me understand how visitors use the website (for example, which pages are most popular) so I can improve my content and user experience.
• Advertising cookies: Used to deliver personalized advertisements and to measure the performance of ad campaigns.

Where required by law (for example under the EU/EEA GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive), analytics and advertising cookies are only activated after you have given your consent via the cookie banner.

6. Analytics

I use Google Analytics (or a similar service) to understand how visitors use the site. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as:

• Which pages you visit and for how long.
• The device and browser you use.
• Approximate geographic region (not your exact address).

This information is processed in an aggregated way and is not used to identify you personally. I have enabled Google’s privacy-friendly features where possible (such as IP anonymization, if available).

Google may process this data on servers located in the European Union or other countries. For more information, please see Google’s own Privacy Policy and terms of service.

7. Advertising and Affiliate Links

This website displays advertising and contains affiliate links.

• Advertising: I may work with advertising partners (such as ad networks or platforms) to show ads on this website. Where you consent to advertising cookies, these partners may use cookies and similar technologies to show you more relevant ads and to measure ad performance.
• Affiliate links: Some links on this website are affiliate links, for example to VPN providers or other services. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, I may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. The merchant or affiliate network may use cookies or tracking identifiers to attribute the purchase to my website.

I do not have access to the full personal information collected by advertising or affiliate partners. Their processing of your data is governed by their own privacy policies. I recommend that you review the privacy policy of any third-party service before providing your personal information.

8. Legal Bases for Processing (EEA & UK GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or another region where the GDPR or similar laws apply, I process your personal data under one or more of the following legal bases:

• Consent: For optional cookies (analytics and advertising), sending marketing communications, and processing involving personalization where you have actively given consent.
• Legitimate interest: For security and fraud prevention, responding to your requests, and improving my content based on aggregated or anonymized information, provided that these interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
• Legal obligation: Where processing is required to comply with applicable laws (for example, tax or accounting rules).

9. Data Sharing and Processors

I do not sell your personal data. However, I may share data with trusted third parties that help me operate the website, subject to appropriate safeguards:

• Hosting and infrastructure providers that store the website and related technical logs.
• Analytics providers (such as Google Analytics) that help me understand how the site is used.
• Advertising networks and affiliate programs that serve ads and track affiliate conversions.
• Professional advisors (such as legal or accounting services) if needed.
• Authorities or law enforcement when required by applicable law or to protect my rights or the rights of others.

10. International Data Transfers

Because some of my service providers are located outside the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom (for example, in the United States), your data may be transferred to and processed in countries that may have different data protection laws than your country.

Where required, I rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent mechanisms to ensure that your data remains protected.

11. Data Retention

I retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. In general:

• Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings of my analytics provider (for example, 14–26 months for Google Analytics, where configured).
• Contact emails are kept for as long as necessary to handle your request and maintain a record of our communication, and may be deleted upon justified request.
• Cookie data is retained for the duration indicated in the cookie banner or your browser settings.

12. Your Rights

If you are located in the EEA, the UK, or another jurisdiction with similar data protection laws, you may have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

• Right of access: To request confirmation of whether I process your personal data and to receive a copy of that data.
• Right to rectification: To request that inaccurate or incomplete data be corrected.
• Right to erasure: To request deletion of your data in certain circumstances ("right to be forgotten").
• Right to restriction: To request that I restrict the processing of your data in certain situations.
• Right to object: To object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.
• Right to data portability: To receive your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, where technically feasible.
• Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on your consent (for example, analytics and advertising cookies), you can withdraw this consent at any time via the cookie banner or preferences panel, or by contacting me.
• Right to lodge a complaint: You can lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. In Belgium, this is the Data Protection Authority (Autorité de protection des données / Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit).

To exercise any of these rights, please contact me using the email address shown on this page or on the Contact page. I may need to verify your identity before responding to your request.
