Privacy notice
Last updated: 6 November 2026
This site collects only what it needs to be delivered securely and to respond when you get in touch. It has no analytics, no advertising and no user accounts, and it does not sell your data or use it for profiling.
Who is responsible
The controller of your personal data is Hugrún Lind Arnardóttir, H.ARNAR Consulting, Kolonnenstr. 8, 10827 Berlin, Germany. Contact: hugrun@harnar-consulting.com.
What is collected and why
| When | Data | Purpose | Legal basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|---|---|
| You visit the site | IP address and technical request data, such as browser type and the page requested | Delivering the site and protecting it from abuse. This is handled by the hosting provider. | Legitimate interests, Art. 6(1)(f): a secure, working website |
| You email me | Your email address, your message and anything else you choose to include | Replying to you, and preparing for any work you ask about | Steps before a contract, Art. 6(1)(b), or legitimate interests in answering enquiries, Art. 6(1)(f) |
| You book a call | What you enter on the booking page, such as your name and email address, and the time you choose | Arranging and holding the call | Your consent, Art. 6(1)(a), which you give with the checkbox on the contact page |
You do not have to give any of this data, but I cannot reply or arrange a call without a way to reach you. No decisions about you are made solely by automated means.
Who receives your data
- Cloudflare hosts this site and processes request data to deliver it.
- Google provides the booking page and calendar. Google’s handling of data is described in its privacy policy.
- My email provider processes messages you send me.
These providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where they do, the transfer relies on a safeguard recognised under the GDPR, such as the EU–US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses. The site’s fonts and code are served from its own hosting, so loading a page sends nothing to Google or to other third parties.
How long data is kept
Emails and booking details are deleted within 6 months of our last contact about your enquiry. If it leads to work together, or if the law requires longer retention, such as for tax and accounting records, they are kept for that period and then deleted. Consent-based booking data is also deleted when you withdraw consent, unless another legal basis requires it to be kept.
Your rights
You have the right to access your personal data, have it corrected or erased, restrict its processing, receive it in a portable format, and object to processing based on legitimate interests.
You can withdraw consent at any time by emailing me. This does not affect processing that took place before you withdrew. To exercise any of these rights, email hugrun@harnar-consulting.com.
You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority, in particular in the EU country where you live or work.
