Dear Visitor,
As a small business respecting our visitors’ privacy, we spent some time to understand the topic and our responsibilities.
To be able to have our online presence and offer you online shopping experience, we use a number of platforms and plugins. Thus, we are mostly bound by their privacy policy.
On this page, we tried to gather information about our privacy policy in relation to the third party services we use. It is of course important for us not to invade your privacy and thus we are doing our best to keep up with GDPR. It should be noted that this is not our area of expertise and hence a learning experience for us too. We followed the guideline provided by WordPress to create this page and edited some issues based on our approach. We will keep updating this page.
Who we are
Let’s start with remembering who we are in the short form. You can learn more about us on “the Studio” page.
We are a Copenhagen based design studio with own product line and growing consultancy portfolio, co-founded by Seda and Şeyda Özçetin.

WordPress
What personal data we collect and why we collect it, as well as what we don’t collect.
Comments
As a matter of fact, we turned off comments function throughout the site to avoid spam. If somehow, on a page, the comment function is still open because we missed it, then WordPress states the following:
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service Privacy Policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
There is no section on the website, where you can upload an image. So, we don’t collect any data through media. In any case, let’s see what WordPress states:
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
On the “Get in Touch” page, we provide a contact form, where we collect data as your name, email, subject and content of the message. The message arrives on our email inbox and we keep the email as long as we need. We do not use the email for marketing purposes.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to learn about users engagement with our site in terms of numbers such as how many people visited our site, from where, which pages they visited, etc. We don’t do much with it but it is important to say that privacy policy of Google Analytics do apply here.
