1) What data do we process?

  • Data collected directly by us: We do not collect names, contact details, or content via forms. There is no account system and no newsletter.
  • Technical/operational data: Our hosting provider’s server logs (e.g., IP address, timestamps, requested resources, browser/OS type) for service security and troubleshooting.
  • Cookies & online identifiers (third parties):
    • Google Analytics – traffic statistics and event measurement (e.g., page views).
    • Google AdSense – ad delivery and measurement (subject to consent; may include personalization where applicable).
    • Google Search Console – webmaster tool. It does not run client-side code in visitor browsers and does not set cookies on users.

 

2) Purposes and legal bases

  • Operating and securing the website (server logs, error diagnostics): GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) – legitimate interests; certain log retention may also reflect a legal obligation.
  • Analytics (Google Analytics): only with your consent, GDPR Art. 6(1)(a).
  • Advertising (Google AdSense): only with your consent, GDPR Art. 6(1)(a). Without consent, non-personalized ads may be shown or ads may not load.

 

3) Retention periods

  • Server logs: typically 30–90 days.
  • Google Analytics data: up to the Google setting in use (e.g., up to 14 months where available; we prefer shorter where possible).

We apply appropriate contractual safeguards with processors. We do not sell personal data and do not share it for third-party targeted advertising without consent.

 

5) International data transfers

Google services may involve transfers outside the EEA/UK. Such transfers rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and Google’s supplementary measures, or other applicable transfer mechanisms. See Google’s documentation for details.

 

6) Cookies and consent

On first visit, our cookie banner lets you grant or withdraw consent for non-essential cookies (analytics, marketing).

  • Strictly necessary: core functionality, security (no consent required).

Examples: _ga (analytics), _gcl_au (ad measurement), advertising identifiers (AdSense). The precise list and lifetimes are shown in the consent tool and your browser’s cookie manager. You can delete/disable cookies in your browser; some features may be affected.

Our Service is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a child’s data reached us, contact hash@hashhike.com and we will act promptly.

 

8) Automated decision-making

We do not engage in solely automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

 

9) Your rights

If you are in the EEA/UK, you have the right to request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability, and to object to processing based on legitimate interests. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

Submit requests to hash@hashhike.com. We may need to verify your identity. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures (HTTPS encryption, access controls, updates and logging) to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, or loss. No method is 100% secure; if a breach occurs, we will notify as required by law.
