2. What this policy covers

This policy applies to personal data handled through this website, mainly when a visitor uses the contact form or contacts Le Fil directly.

3. Personal data we collect

When you use the contact form, we collect the information needed to receive and respond to your message:

  • your name;
  • your email address;
  • your message;
  • any other personal information you choose to include.

The website or hosting provider may also process basic technical information, such as IP address, browser type, date and time of visit, requested pages, and security logs. This supports the secure and reliable operation of the website.

4. Why we use personal data

We use personal data for limited and practical purposes:

  • to receive and respond to messages;
  • to keep a reasonable record of communication where necessary;
  • to maintain the security and operation of the website;
  • to comply with legal obligations where required.

We do not use contact form messages for unrelated advertising or automated marketing.

5. Legal basis for processing

We process personal data where we have a lawful reason, including our legitimate interest in responding to messages and keeping the website secure, and compliance with legal obligations where applicable.

6. Contact form messages

Information submitted through the contact form is sent to Le Fil by email. It may remain in our email inbox and, where necessary, in website or server records connected with form delivery and security.

Please avoid sending sensitive personal information through the contact form unless it is necessary for your request.

7. Cookies and tracking

This theme does not add advertising scripts, marketing pixels, or analytics trackers. WordPress, installed plugins, or the hosting provider may use strictly necessary cookies or technical logs for normal operation, security, spam prevention, or administration.

8. Who may receive personal data

We do not sell personal data. Where necessary, information may be available to website hosting and IT providers, email providers, professional advisers, or public authorities where required by law.

9. International transfers

If a technical or email service provider processes personal data outside the European Economic Area, appropriate safeguards should be used as required by applicable data protection law.

10. How long we keep personal data

We keep personal data only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected. Contact messages may be kept for up to 24 months after the last communication unless a longer period is necessary for legal, administrative, or safety reasons. Technical logs are retained according to website and hosting security needs.

11. Your rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain uses of your personal data, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To make a request, contact info@lefiil.be. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

12. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No online system can guarantee absolute security.

13. Third-party links

This website may link to third-party websites or platforms. Le Fil is not responsible for their privacy practices, so please review their policies before providing personal data.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will be published on this website with the date of the update.
