Privacy Policy
1. Data controller
Name: Adrienn Simon
Email: [email protected]
Website: adriennsimon.com
I operate this website as a natural person. The current public version does not provide direct sales, payment, account registration or online contract formation.
2. Technical data related to website use
The website is delivered using Cloudflare infrastructure. When the site is opened, technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, request time, security and traffic data may be processed.
The purpose is to operate the website securely and reliably, identify errors and protect against harmful or unauthorised traffic. The legal basis is the controller's legitimate interest in operating a secure and reliable website.
Service provider: Cloudflare, Inc., USA.
At launch, adriennsimon.com does not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Hotjar or any separate marketing or audience analytics system.
3. Web fonts
The current version of the website loads fonts through Google Fonts. When fonts are loaded, the browser connects to Google services and technical connection data such as the IP address may be transmitted. This service is not used for adriennsimon.com's own analytics or advertising purposes.
4. Contact by email
If you contact me by email, I process the information you voluntarily provide with the message. This may include your email address, your name if provided, the content of your message and any additional information you choose to share.
The purpose is to respond to the enquiry and maintain communication. The legal basis is legitimate interest in conducting the communication. If an enquiry later relates to steps prior to entering into a contract, the applicable legal basis may change accordingly.
Email enquiries and related information are retained for no longer than 12 months after the communication ends, unless a longer period is required for legal or contractual reasons.
5. Email service
The mailbox for [email protected] is hosted by RackForest Informatikai Kereskedelmi Szolgáltató és Tanácsadó Zrt., 1132 Budapest, Victor Hugo utca 11., 5th floor, Hungary.
In providing the email service, the provider may technically have access to data associated with email communications.
6. Adrienn Simon Notes and Substack
Adrienn Simon Notes is available at notes.adriennsimon.com. Subscription is free and the publication is provided through Substack.
Adriennsimon.com links to the Notes publication through an ordinary external link; the main website does not embed a Substack form or iframe. The Substack service opens only if you follow the Notes link.
If you subscribe on the Notes site, the primary personal data required is your email address. Substack may also process technical, subscription and activity data generated through use of its service. The purpose is to manage subscriptions, deliver Notes by email, maintain the subscriber list and operate the publication. The legal basis is the subscriber's consent, which can be withdrawn using the unsubscribe option included in Substack emails.
Service provider: Substack Inc., USA.
7. External links and social media
The website contains ordinary outbound links to LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify and Facebook, as well as the Notes publication and an email link. Opening an external service takes you to that provider's site, where its own privacy and cookie rules apply.
8. Cookies and browser storage
The Spotify players in Beyond the Title and Career Memoir load only after you allow them. Without permission, these pages do not connect to Spotify. Permission is optional; you can use the rest of the website after declining. Loading the player does not start playback automatically.
After permission, Spotify AB and its service providers may receive technical data such as your IP address, browser information and playback events, and may use cookies or similar technologies. This processing can begin when the player loads, before you press Play.
We store your choice and its timestamp in this browser for up to 180 days using the adriennsimon.spotify-consent.v1 localStorage entry. It is not a marketing identifier. The choice applies to both languages and both Spotify embeds. If browser storage is unavailable, permission applies only to the current page.
You can withdraw permission at any time below the player or on the Cookies page. This removes the loaded player and blocks further loading. The website cannot recall data already sent or delete cookies previously set on Spotify’s own domain; manage these through your browser settings. Opening an outbound Spotify link is subject to the provider’s own rules.

9. Transfers outside the European Economic Area
Cloudflare, Google and Substack are US-based service providers, so certain data may be processed outside the European Economic Area. The relevant providers apply transfer safeguards required under applicable data protection rules.
10. Your rights
Subject to applicable data protection law, you may request information and access, correction or deletion, restriction of processing, object to certain processing and, where the conditions apply, request data portability.
Where processing is based on consent, consent can be withdrawn at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
For privacy questions or requests, contact [email protected].
You may also lodge a complaint with the Hungarian National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (NAIH), 1055 Budapest, Falk Miksa utca 9-11, Hungary. Current contact information is available on the NAIH website.
11. Changes to this notice
This notice may be updated when the website, its services or its technology changes. The current version will always be available on this website.
You can review or change optional Spotify consent anytime using the site-wide Cookie settings control. See the Cookie Policy for details.
