1. Data Controller
The Museum of Agricultural and Cultural Heritage of Iasmos, operated by the Iasmos Culture Club, is the data controller responsible for the personal data collected through this website.
2. Data We Collect
We collect the personal data you voluntarily provide through the contact form: your name, email address, and the content of your message.
We also keep anonymous visit statistics on our own server. Each page view is recorded with the page address, language, referring page and browser identification. Your IP address is turned into a one-way code that changes every day, so visits cannot be linked to you or followed from one day to the next. The IP address itself is stored only briefly, for security and abuse investigation, and is erased automatically after 30 days.
3. Purpose of Processing
Your data is used solely to respond to your enquiry. We do not use it for marketing, profiling, or any other purpose.
4. Legal Basis
Contact form data is processed on the basis of your consent, given when you submit the form (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). Embedded content from Google is loaded on the basis of the consent you give in the cookie notice. Our anonymous visit statistics and the short-term storage of IP addresses for security rest on our legitimate interest in understanding how the site is used and in protecting it from abuse (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
5. Data Retention
Contact messages are retained for up to 12 months and then permanently deleted, unless a longer retention period is required by law. IP addresses in our visit statistics are erased after 30 days; the anonymous statistics themselves are kept indefinitely, as they can no longer be linked to any individual.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties. Data is stored on our secure server and is accessible only to authorised personnel.
7. Your Rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to data portability. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email address below.
8. Cookies and Embedded Content
This website sets no tracking or advertising cookies of its own. The only cookies we set are those the site needs to work: a session cookie, a security cookie that protects forms against misuse, a cookie remembering your language, and a cookie remembering your answer to the cookie notice.
Some pages embed content hosted by Google: a map on the contact page and videos on activity pages. When that content loads, Google may set its own cookies and will see your IP address. We therefore do not load it until you allow it, either by accepting in the cookie notice or by clicking the individual map or video. You can change your answer at any time through the “Cookie settings” link in the footer.
Some Museum History pages end with a map of the places they mention. Its map images are served by OpenStreetMap and, if you switch to the satellite view, by Esri; each will see your IP address when its images load. The map waits for your permission in the same way as the content from Google.
Web fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means Google receives your IP address when a page loads. No cookies are set by this.
