Privacy and cookies

Who is responsible

The controller of any personal data described here is SIA "Green Wire Media", Rūpniecības iela 8A, Cēsis, LV-4101, Latvia, VAT LV40103809984.

For anything on this page, including access, correction or deletion requests, write to info@greenwiremedia.com. We answer within one month, usually far sooner.

What we collect

• Enquiries. The name, email, phone number and message you type into the contact form, plus who you are and the budget range if you pick them. We use it to answer you and, if it turns into work, to run the project.
• Page views. A first-party count of which page was viewed and which site referred you. It sets no cookie, stores no identifier and cannot be traced back to a person. This runs whether or not you accept cookies, because it holds no personal data.
• Analytics, only if you accept. Google Analytics 4, which sets cookies and measures visits across pages and sessions. Nothing is stored and no cookie is set until you accept the banner.
• Server logs. Our host records requests, including IP addresses, for security and abuse prevention. These are short-lived and are not used to profile anyone.

Cookies, in full

Before you answer the banner, this site sets no cookies. Not a session cookie, not an analytics cookie, nothing. Decline and it stays that way, and any analytics cookie a previous visit left behind is deleted.

Accept and exactly two cookies are set:

One more thing is stored, and it is not a cookie: your answer to the banner itself, kept in your browser under gwm-consent so we do not ask again on every page. It never leaves your device. Clearing your browser storage clears it, and you can change your mind at any time from the Cookies link in the footer.

Why we are allowed to

• Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)). Analytics cookies. Given by the banner, withdrawable at any time from the footer, with no consequence for using the site.
• Contract and pre-contract steps (Art. 6(1)(b)). Answering your enquiry and delivering work you order.
• Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)). Keeping the site secure and available, and our cookieless page counts, which carry no personal data.
• Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)). Accounting records once you become a client.

Who else touches it

• Cloudflare. Hosting, CDN and the database holding contact-form submissions.
• Google. Workspace for our email, and Analytics if you accepted it.
• Resend. Delivers the contact-form email to our inbox.

We do not sell data, do not run advertising pixels, and do not share enquiries with anyone outside the list above. Some of these providers are US companies and may process data outside the EU under the standard contractual clauses and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

How long we keep it

Enquiries are kept while we are talking and for as long as the client relationship lasts. If nothing comes of it, we delete the message. Accounting records are kept for the period Latvian law requires. Analytics data expires on Google's retention schedule. Server logs are short-lived.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you can ask us for a copy of your data, ask us to correct or delete it, ask us to restrict or stop a particular use, and ask for it in a portable format. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it without giving a reason. One email to info@greenwiremedia.com starts any of these.

If we get it wrong, you can complain to the Latvian data protection authority, Datu valsts inspekcija (dvi.gov.lv), or to the authority where you live.

Changes

If the site starts loading something new, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. We do not quietly widen what we collect.
