This policy explains what personal data Web Designer Wall processes when you read the site, preview or download snippets, or send us a message, and the choices you have. We keep it short because we collect very little: there are no accounts, no comments, no ads and no newsletter.

Services that process data for us
- Hetzner Online GmbH (Germany) hosts the website and stores the server logs.
- Cloudflare, Inc. delivers the site through its network and protects it from attacks. Cloudflare processes your IP address to do this.
- Google (Google Ireland Limited for visitors in the EEA and Switzerland) provides Google Analytics. Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses.
- Twilio SendGrid (United States) delivers contact-form messages to our inbox.
- jsDelivr and Google Fonts serve the Bootstrap files and web fonts used by live snippet previews. Your browser requests these files directly, so these providers see your IP address when a preview loads.
Some of these providers process data outside the EEA. Where they do, the transfer is covered by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
Your rights
If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, you have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier processing. To use any of these rights, contact us. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
