## Who is responsible

The controller of personal data on this website is **SMART SC EOOD**, Darvenitza 9, ap.47, Sofia, Bulgaria (company ID 202065671). Contact: contact@specwiseguide.com.

## What we collect

**We use Google Analytics to count visits. We don't use advertising cookies or tracking pixels**, and we don't sell or share personal data.

- **Server logs.** Like every website, our server records technical data for each request: IP address, date and time, page requested, referrer and browser type. We use it only to run and secure the site (for example to stop abuse), on the basis of our legitimate interest (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)), and delete it after at most 30 days.
- **Email.** If you write to us, we use your message and address to reply, and keep them only as long as needed to handle your request.
- **Analytics.** We use Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Ltd. / Google LLC) to see which guides are read and how the pages are used: pages viewed, approximate location (country and city, derived from the IP address, which Google does not store), device and browser type, the site you came from, and actions on the page such as following a link to Amazon or a source, sorting or filtering a table, using the size calculator or the Will-it-fit finder (the numbers you enter there, such as a seating distance or a wall width), opening a question, how far you scroll, and the first characters of text you copy. We don't send your name, email or any other text you type. Advertising features (Google Signals, ad personalization) are switched off. Data is kept for at most 14 months.
- **Cookies.** The only cookies are Google Analytics' (`_ga`, `_ga_*`, up to 2 years), which tell visits apart. In the EU/EEA, the UK and Switzerland they are set only if you accept on the cookie banner (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a), consent); until then, and if you decline, Google receives cookieless signals that don't identify you. Elsewhere they are set by default unless your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, which we treat as declining. You can change your choice at any time with "Cookie settings" at the bottom of every page, or block Google Analytics everywhere with [Google's opt-out add-on](https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout).

## Links to Amazon

Links to Amazon.com are affiliate links. When you click a link to Amazon.com, Amazon may set its own cookies; that's governed by [Amazon's privacy notice](https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=GX7NJQ4ZB8MHFRNJ). We receive reports of total sales, not your identity.
## Hosting

Our hosting provider processes server logs on our behalf under a data processing agreement. 

## Your rights

If you're in the EU/EEA, you have the right to access, correct or delete your data, to restrict or object to processing, and to data portability; and you may complain to a supervisory authority, in Bulgaria the Commission for Personal Data Protection (cpdp.bg). If you're in a US state with a consumer privacy law, you have similar rights to know and delete; since we don't sell or share personal data, there's nothing to opt out of. To exercise any right, email contact@specwiseguide.com.

## Children

This site isn't directed at children under 13 and we don't knowingly collect their data.

## Changes

We'll update this page if our practices change and change the date above.
