What data we collect and why

When you submit the contact form on this website, we collect your first name, last name, email address, and message. This data is used solely to respond to your enquiry. The legal basis for processing is legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

If you tick the marketing checkbox on the contact form, we also store your consent to receive future marketing communications from Volet. The legal basis for this processing is consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at coucou@voletvolet.com.

Cookies and analytics

This website uses cookies. Two analytics cookies (ss_cvr and ss_cvt) are set by Squarespace to measure visitor sessions. These cookies are only placed with your consent, which you can manage or withdraw at any time via the cookie settings link in the footer.

Two necessary cookies (crumb) are set for security purposes (CSRF protection) and do not require consent.

How long we keep your data

Contact form submissions are retained only as long as necessary to respond to your enquiry. Marketing consent records are retained until you withdraw your consent.

Who we share your data with

Your data is processed through Squarespace (our website platform), which acts as a data processor on our behalf. Squarespace is GDPR-compliant. We do not sell, share, or transfer your personal data to any other third party.

When a newsletter platform is introduced, this policy will be updated to reflect the additional processor before any marketing communications are sent.

Your rights

Under GDPR you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict processing, and to lodge a complaint with the Portuguese data protection authority (CNPD) at cnpd.pt.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at coucou@voletvolet.com.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the website evolves. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
