This is a personal professional site. It collects as little as it can, sets no cookies, and shares nothing with advertisers.
Who is responsible
Dragoș Iordache, Bucharest, Romania, acting as the data controller for this website.
For any privacy question, or to ask for a copy or deletion of your data, write to contact@iordachedragos.com.
The contact form
If you send a message, I process the name, email address, optional organisation, topic and message text you type, plus the time of submission and the language of the page. That is all — the form does not ask for a phone number or a postal address, and you should not include sensitive or personal data in the message.
The message is emailed to me so I can reply. The legal basis is legitimate interest — responding to a professional enquiry you chose to send. Messages are kept only as long as the conversation needs, and deleted afterwards.
To keep the form from being abused I use Cloudflare Turnstile, a privacy-preserving alternative to a CAPTCHA that does not profile you or track you across sites, plus a hidden field and a timing check that only ever look at the submission itself. Failed and automated submissions are counted, not stored.
Analytics
I use Cloudflare Web Analytics. It is cookieless: it sets no cookie, stores nothing on your device, assigns no persistent identifier, and cannot follow you to any other website.
It records the page you viewed, the referring site, an approximate country and region derived from your IP address at request time, and broad device and browser categories. Your full IP address is not retained in the analytics dataset and is never used to build a profile.
Because there is no cookie or device storage and no cross-site tracking, this processing does not require consent under the ePrivacy rules, so there is no cookie banner to click. If that ever changes, a consent step will be added before any analytics loads.
I also count how many contact-form messages arrive, so I can tell how much of the traffic is doing anything useful. That counter records the page language and topic category — never the message contents, your name or your email address.
Hosting and email
The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare processes requests as a data processor and keeps short-lived security and performance logs.
Mail to contact@iordachedragos.com is forwarded by Cloudflare Email Routing to a private mailbox that is never published.
What this site does not do
No advertising, no advertising identifiers, no remarketing.
No cookies of any kind, including analytics cookies.

Your rights
Under the GDPR you can ask for access to your data, correction, erasure, restriction, portability, or object to processing based on legitimate interest. Write to contact@iordachedragos.com and I will respond within one month.
You also have the right to complain to a supervisory authority. In Romania that is the National Supervisory Authority for Personal Data Processing (ANSPDCP).
