2. Principles of Data Collection & Scope

We operate on the foundational principle of data minimization. As an editorial publication and acoustic research collective, we do not monetize user tracking profiles, sell personal records to third-party data brokers, or conduct unconsented behavioral surveillance across the web.

We process personal data solely under the following lawful bases defined in Article 6(1) GDPR:

• Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (Consent): Explicit consent granted for our weekly curated newsletter dispatch or voluntary form submissions.
• Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (Contractual Necessity): Processing necessary to deliver services, documentation, or response packages requested by users.
• Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Legitimate Interests): Technical log generation to safeguard server security, protect against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) vectors, and optimize edge delivery speeds across Central European network routes.

3. Server Telemetry & Log Files

When you access our platform, our edge routing nodes automatically log non-personally identifiable diagnostic telemetry transmitted by your browser. This includes:

• Anonymized Internet Protocol (IP) address (truncated to /24 subnet masking).
• Date, timestamp, and duration of the request session.
• Requested URI resource path and HTTP status return code.
• Referring Uniform Resource Locator (Referrer header).
• Browser user agent string and operating system architecture.

These log files are retained for a maximum duration of fourteen (14) calendar days for network security auditing before automated, permanent cryptographic erasure.

4. Communication & Form Submissions

If you contact our editorial desk or submit venue telemetry via our interactive dispatch interfaces, we store your submitted name, electronic mail address, organization, and message contents. These records are used exclusively for handling your specific query and are archived within encrypted European data storage centers. We do not transfer this information to external entities without explicit prior authorization.

5. Cookies & Local Client Storage

Our platform implements client-side localStorage variables exclusively to store your interface consent choices (such as suppressing the cookie consent dialogue upon selection) and caching regional interactive map settings. For comprehensive categorization, lifespan intervals, and disabling procedures, refer to our dedicated Cookie Policy.
