Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 30, 2025

1. Introduction

At 42BIT, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our services.

2. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

  • Personal identification information (name, email address, phone number, etc.)
  • Technical data (IP address, browser type, operating system, etc.)
  • Usage data collected by our self-hosted, cookie-less web analytics (see Section 4)
  • Locally stored preferences (e.g. language, dark mode, cookie choice) that remain in your browser

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use your information to:

  • Provide, operate, and maintain our services
  • Improve, personalize, and expand our services
  • Understand and analyze how you use our services
  • Develop new products, services, features, and functionality
  • Communicate with you for customer service, updates, and marketing

4. Web Analytics (Umami)

We use Umami, an open-source web-analytics tool, to understand how our website is used. Umami is self-hosted on our own infrastructure — no analytics data is transmitted to or shared with any third party. We do not use Google Analytics, Google Ads, or any other third-party tracking service.

What Umami collects:

• Pages visited, the referring page, and the time of the visit

• Browser, operating system, device type, and screen size

• Country, derived from the IP address — the IP address itself is not stored

Umami is cookie-less: it sets no cookies, stores no identifiers on your device, builds no personal profiles, and does not track you across other websites. The resulting statistics are aggregated and cannot be used by us to identify you. If you have enabled analytics in our cookie settings, we additionally record anonymous page-performance metrics (Core Web Vitals) as Umami events.

Legal basis for processing: our legitimate interest in privacy-friendly, aggregated usage statistics for our own website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). You can object at any time by switching off analytics in the cookie settings (available via the cookie banner and the link in the website footer) — measurement then stops immediately.

5. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

6. Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including:

  • The right to access, update, or delete your information
  • The right to rectification
  • The right to object
  • The right to data portability
  • The right to withdraw consent
