Privacy policy
In short: we collect only the data you give us in a form, at checkout or in a message, and we use it to prepare the report you ordered, handle the payment and get in touch with you. We do not sell data and we do not send newsletters.

[02] / Scope
What data we collect
- The "Book a call" form
- First name, e-mail address, phone number and the service you pick. Optionally a website address, a Polish tax ID and a company name.
- Tax ID
- When you enter a tax ID we fetch the company name from the public VAT taxpayer register run by the Polish Ministry of Finance. Only the number itself is sent there.
- The website audit form
- The website address, your e-mail address and the report language, plus the report we prepare about the site. For the free audit limits we store a hash of your IP address, from which the address itself cannot be read, and your e-mail address in a normalised form. We do not store the IP address itself.
- Payments
- When you order the full report or monitoring: your name or company name, address, tax ID and e-mail address for the invoice. Card and other payment details are seen only by Stripe; we receive only the payment status and amount.
- Report opens
- When someone opens a report we store the date, the country (derived by Cloudflare from the IP address, which we do not store), the device type and the browser.
- Recruitment
- The data in the CV and messages you send to our e-mail address.
- Correspondence
- The content of your message and your contact details when you write to us.
- Site statistics
- Aggregate visit and click data, without cookies and without identifying individuals.

[05] / Recipients
Who processes data for us
Only the people on our team handling your case see the data. We use providers that process data on our behalf. Some of them operate outside the European Economic Area; data goes there under the European Commission's standard contractual clauses or an adequacy decision (the EU-US Data Privacy Framework).
- Hosting and database
- Cloudflare, Inc. (United States). The site runs on the Cloudflare network, and audit reports and the audit form data are stored in a Cloudflare D1 database. The contact form is not stored: it reaches us straight away as an e-mail.
- Form protection
- Cloudflare Turnstile (Cloudflare, Inc.). On the /audit page it checks that a human sends the form; your browser contacts a Cloudflare server for this.
- Resend (Plus Five Five, Inc., United States). It delivers the contact form to us and sends you the report and monitoring e-mails.
- Payments
- Stripe Payments Europe, Limited (Ireland). It handles the payment, the monitoring subscription and the invoice details. Payment takes place on Stripe's page, which has its own privacy policy and cookies.
- Site statistics
- PostHog, Inc.; data stored in the European Union (PostHog EU Cloud, Frankfurt). It counts visits and clicks without cookies and without storing anything in your browser. The IP address is used only to count unique visits and is not stored.
- Tax ID register
- The Polish Ministry of Finance VAT register. If you enter a tax ID, we ask the public register for the company name. We send it none of your personal data.
[06] / Your rights
What you can do
- Access and a copy
- You can ask what data we hold about you and receive a copy.

- You can correct the data or ask us to delete it. We delete an audit report on request sent to kontakt@berc.pl.
- Restriction and objection
- You can restrict processing or object to it where we rely on legitimate interest.
- Portability
- You can receive the data in a format you can hand to another controller.

[07] / Cookies
Cookies and statistics
The site uses no cookies and stores nothing in your browser: not for tracking, not for advertising, not for statistics. We collect visit statistics with PostHog in cookieless mode; the data passes through our own server, so your browser does not contact PostHog for it. We do not record sessions or build profiles of individuals. Fonts are served from our own server as well.
Exceptions: the /audit page runs Cloudflare Turnstile, which contacts a Cloudflare server, and payment takes place on Stripe's page with its own cookies. The only cookie on our site is set by the admin panel, which only our team uses.
An audit report is an automated analysis of a website, not of a person. We make no automated decisions about you and we do not profile you.
[08] / Changes
Changes to this policy
When we change how we process data, we update this page and the date at the top. Earlier versions are available on request.
