Privacy Policy and cookies

(updated on the 30th of December of 2023)

Who I am

This website (https://miguelvgamazo.eu/) is the place where I offer my services as a translator, interpreter, proofreader and other related services. It is owned and administered by me, Miguel Valentín-Gamazo Pontijas.

As a translator, I am inscribed at the Registry of Self-Employed Persons of the Czech Republic, with registration number (IČ) 06439454. Registered address: Bělehradská 858/23, 120 00 Prague 2 (Please note, this is not a correspondence address).

I also own another website on translation (www.datascientist.cz), which is solely a personal résumé website, and it is not intended to sell products or services, therefore, it has another data policy.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who I share your data with

For registration to leave comments: If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

If you decide to contact me by email, phone or using the contact form, I commit to not share your data with anyone unless you explicitly indicate it.

In the event that you decide to purchase my services or products, please be advised that I utilize external software to manage invoices. This software adheres to a high level of privacy, and the data uploaded is safeguarded by a strong password and a username that I do not share with anyone. The information I upload to the software is strictly essential for issuing your invoice:

  • Name of the client (company or person)
  • Email for communication (the email that you provided for invoice delivery)
  • Invoice address

How long I retain your data

When you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that decide to register on my website (if any), the personal information they provide in their user profile is also stored. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information. Users have also the right to deletion.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data I hold about you, including any data you have provided to me. You can also request that I erase any personal data I hold about you. This does not include any data that I am obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes as per the GDPR or any applicable law.

To exercise your rights on data protection, in particular (but not restricted to) the rights of: access, rectification, erasion (“right to be forgotten”) or restriction, please, feel free to contact me using one of the ways from the section: https://miguelvgamazo.eu/contact/
