Responding to enquiries and evaluating potential projects
When you contact Yanevych Design to request information, discuss a project, obtain a quotation or explore a possible collaboration, your data may be processed to:

Legal basis: Article 6(1)(b) GDPR — processing necessary to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.
Submitting a project enquiry does not subscribe you to newsletters or unrelated marketing communications.

If you become a client, personal data may be processed for:
- project administration;
- communication and project management;
- delivery of design services;
- management of revisions, production files and project documentation;
- invoicing and payment administration;
- maintaining business records;

Legal basis: Article 6(1)(b) GDPR — performance of a contract.
Legal, tax and accounting obligations
Certain information may be processed and retained where required to comply with legal, accounting, tax or regulatory obligations.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(c) GDPR — compliance with a legal obligation.
Website security and technical operation
Technical information may be processed to operate and secure the website, prevent abuse or spam, diagnose technical errors, protect website infrastructure and maintain the reliability of online services.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interests in maintaining the security and technical reliability of the website, provided those interests are not overridden by the rights and freedoms of users.
Analytics
Where you consent to analytics cookies, Google Analytics may be used to understand how visitors use the website, including page views, sessions, traffic sources and general website performance.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(a) GDPR — consent.
Analytics cookies and equivalent non-essential tracking technologies are not intended to be activated before the relevant consent has been provided.

This may include a consent identifier, consent status, date and time, cookie-category choices and limited technical information.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(c) GDPR where processing is required to demonstrate compliance with legal obligations and Article 6(1)(f) GDPR where necessary for the legitimate interest of documenting and managing privacy preferences.
Forms, analytics and service providers
WPForms
The project-enquiry form is implemented using WPForms within the WordPress website.
Information submitted through the form may be stored within the website's hosting environment and sent to the configured Yanevych Design email account for the purpose of responding to and managing the enquiry.
Depending on the technical configuration and anti-spam settings, additional technical information may be processed during a form submission.
Spam protection and Google reCAPTCHA
The website may use Google reCAPTCHA or equivalent anti-spam technology to protect forms and website infrastructure against automated abuse.
Where active, the service may process technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, interaction signals and security-related data required to distinguish human activity from automated activity.
Google processes information according to its own privacy terms where it acts independently.
Google Analytics and Google services
Where consent has been provided, the website uses Google Analytics and related Google measurement technology.
Google Analytics may process information including:
- online and cookie identifiers;
- IP-related and device information;
- browser information;
- approximate location derived from technical information;
- page views and website interactions;
- referral and campaign information.
You can withdraw Analytics consent at any time through the cookie preference controls.

CookieYes is used to manage the website's cookie-consent banner and preference centre.
CookieYes may process information necessary to remember and demonstrate a user's choices, including consent status, a consent identifier, date and time and, depending on configuration, limited or pseudonymised technical information.
Third-party widgets and external resources
The website may use third-party tools or embedded resources, including review widgets such as Trustindex and external links such as LinkedIn.
When third-party resources are loaded, their providers may receive technical connection data such as IP address, browser information and the webpage requesting the resource.
External services operate under their own privacy policies.
Categories of recipients
Where necessary, personal data may be made available to:
- website hosting and infrastructure providers;
- email and communication providers;
- website security and anti-spam providers;
- CookieYes for consent-management services;
- Google where Google Analytics, Google tags or reCAPTCHA are used;
- providers of embedded website widgets or technical resources;
- accountants, tax advisers, legal advisers and other professional advisers where necessary;
- public authorities where disclosure is required by law.
Personal data are not disclosed for unrelated purposes and are not sold.
International data transfers
Some service providers used by the website may process personal data outside the European Economic Area ("EEA").
Where personal data are transferred outside the EEA, transfers are based, as applicable, on safeguards recognised by Chapter V GDPR, including:
- an adequacy decision adopted by the European Commission;
- the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework for certified U.S. recipients;
- European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses;
- other appropriate safeguards recognised by applicable law.
Information about relevant safeguards may be requested by contacting info@yanevychdesign.com .
Data retention
Personal data are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which they were collected and in accordance with applicable legal obligations.
Project enquiries
Enquiries that do not become client relationships are normally retained for up to 12 months from the last meaningful communication, unless earlier deletion is requested or longer retention is reasonably necessary for legal claims.
Client and project data
Retained for the duration of the client relationship and afterwards for the period reasonably necessary for contractual administration, legal rights and applicable obligations.
Accounting records
Invoices and accounting or tax documentation are retained for the period required under Italian law, generally at least 10 years, and longer where legally required.
Consent records
Cookie-consent records are retained in accordance with the consent-management configuration and only for as long as necessary to manage and demonstrate users' choices.
Analytics information
Google Analytics data are retained according to the settings configured for the Analytics property and subject to the user's consent choices.
Security logs
Technical and security logs are retained only for the period reasonably necessary for security, troubleshooting and abuse prevention unless longer retention is legally required.
Mandatory and optional information
Fields identified as required in the enquiry form are necessary to allow Yanevych Design to understand and respond to your request.
Providing optional information is voluntary.
If required contact information is not provided, Yanevych Design may be unable to respond to or evaluate the enquiry.
Automated decision-making and profiling
Yanevych Design does not make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects solely through automated processing.
Website analytics may be used to understand website performance and usage, but are not used by Yanevych Design to make automated decisions about individual visitors.
