Site information

Privacy Policy

Effective date: 1 January 2026. This policy explains how this static informational website handles information.

Who operates this site

friendflirankrostr.asia is an independent editorial website about Scandinavian and Nordic Christmas markets. The site does not claim affiliation with a market, municipality, government, tourism board, festival, museum, restaurant, travel agency or craft organisation. The legal operator’s company registration number and registered office have not been published. For privacy questions, write to [email protected]. No data protection officer is appointed or represented as applicable.

Information collected

Reading the static pages does not require an account. The site does not currently operate an analytics service, advertising tracker, embedded social feed or third-party marketing pixel. The cookie controls store a choice in your browser’s local storage. Local storage is browser storage, not a cookie. The choice records whether you selected accept, reject or preferences and is used only to keep the banner closed on later visits.

If you use the contact form, the browser validates the information locally. The form does not transmit or store the message on a server, and its success notice confirms local validation only. If you choose to contact us by email, your email provider sends us the information included in your message. This may include your name, email address, enquiry details and any information you voluntarily add. Please do not send sensitive personal information unless it is necessary.

Our hosting provider may process technical request information such as an IP address, browser type, requested file and time of request as part of standard web delivery and security logs. The provider, retention period and exact log configuration depend on the hosting service used for deployment. This site does not use those logs for audience analytics.

Purposes and lawful basis

Information sent by email is used to read and respond to the enquiry, maintain correspondence and protect the site against misuse. Depending on the context and applicable law, the basis may be taking steps requested by you, legitimate interests in operating the site, or your consent where consent is required. Technical logs may be processed to deliver pages, troubleshoot faults and protect service integrity. Local storage is used to remember your cookie-banner choice.

Retention and sharing

Email correspondence is retained only as long as needed to handle the request, maintain a reasonable record or meet applicable legal obligations. Hosting logs are controlled by the hosting provider and may be retained under its operational policies. The site does not sell personal information. It does not intentionally disclose contact messages to unrelated parties. A hosting provider may process technical data to serve the website. Email providers process correspondence when you contact us; their own privacy terms apply. No additional third-party processors are intentionally integrated into this site.

Security

Reasonable technical and organisational steps should be used to protect information, but no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. Use an email account you control and avoid sending passwords, payment details or sensitive records through general enquiries. Report a suspected privacy issue using the contact details below.

Your rights

If the GDPR applies, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability, and to object to certain processing. You may withdraw consent where processing relies on consent. You can also complain to a supervisory authority in your place of residence, work or the place of an alleged infringement. If CCPA/CPRA applies, California residents may have rights to know, correct or delete personal information and to opt out of sale or sharing. This site does not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. Rights and exceptions depend on the law that applies.

To make a request, email [email protected]. We may ask for information reasonably needed to identify the correspondence or verify a request. We will respond in line with applicable requirements. This policy may be updated when the site’s operation or legal obligations change. Check this page for the current version.
