Privacy

Last updated: 2 September 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how The Constantine Andreou Archive processes personal information through its website.

Controller

The Constantine Andreou Archive is the controller of the personal information it processes for its own purposes through this website.

Information you provide

If you contact the Archive, the enquiry form collects your name, email address, subject, and message. You may also provide an Archive identifier to identify a particular work.

The form is configured not to save submissions in the website’s WordPress database. Your message is sent by email so that the Archive can read and respond to it. Please do not include sensitive personal information that is not necessary for your enquiry.

Website traffic and security

The website is hosted by Gandi and uses Cloudflare services for web-traffic routing, DNS, performance, and security. Traffic to the website passes through Cloudflare’s network before reaching the hosting provider.

Cloudflare and the hosting systems may process basic technical and security information required to operate and protect the website. This may include an Internet Protocol (IP) address, the requested page, request headers, the date and time of the request, and security signals. This information is used to deliver and secure the website, troubleshoot technical problems, and prevent misuse.

Cookies and website analytics

The website uses only strictly necessary cookies for core site functions, security, and storing your cookie choices. Cloudflare may set a strictly necessary cookie when required for a security check. You can review the cookies used by the website through Cookie Settings.

The website uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand aggregate website traffic and performance. The service provides aggregate information such as page views, pages visited, referral sources, the countries from which visits originate, device types, browsers, operating systems, and page-performance measurements.

Cloudflare states that Web Analytics does not collect or use visitors’ personal data. Its analytics beacon does not use cookies or browser storage and does not use fingerprinting techniques to track individual visitors. Although the beacon receives an Internet Protocol (IP) address as part of normal request processing, Cloudflare states that the address is discarded at the nearest data centre and is not stored in its core databases or logs.

The Archive uses these aggregate statistics to understand which parts of the website are useful, how visitors reach the site, and how its accessibility and performance can be improved. It does not use Google Analytics or analytics tools for advertising, profiling, or tracking individual users across websites.

How information is used and shared

Information submitted through the contact form is used to review and respond to the enquiry, maintain necessary correspondence, protect the website and the Archive’s rights, and comply with applicable legal obligations.

Information is processed only to the extent necessary for the purposes described in this policy and in accordance with applicable law.

Personal information may be processed by Cloudflare, Gandi, and the service used to deliver enquiry emails, but only as needed to provide their respective services. Information may also be disclosed when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect legal rights.

The Archive does not sell personal information or share it with advertisers or data brokers. It does not use personal information for targeted advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making.

How long information is kept

Enquiry correspondence is kept only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, undertake any necessary follow-up, maintain necessary records, or meet legal obligations. Technical information is retained only for periods determined by operational, security, service, and applicable legal requirements.

Your rights

Depending on applicable law, you may ask the Archive to confirm whether it processes personal information about you. You may also have the right to request access to that information, its correction or deletion, restriction of its processing, or to object to its processing. Where applicable, you may also have a right to data portability.

These rights are not absolute, and requests may be subject to the limitations and exceptions established by applicable law. Where applicable, you may also lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority.

To make a privacy request or ask a question about this policy, please contact the Archive.

External links

This website links to external websites for research, source, institutional, and bibliographic purposes. Those websites have their own privacy and cookie practices, for which the Archive is not responsible.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated if the website’s features or privacy practices change. The date at the top of the page indicates when it was last revised.
