1. Overview
This privacy policy explains how ossio.dev ("we", "us", or "the Site"), operated by Daniel Ossio, collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website. We are committed to complying with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (nDSG / revDSG) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

3. Data We Collect
3.1 Contact Form Submissions
When you submit the contact form, we collect:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your message content
Purpose: To respond to your enquiry.
Legal basis: Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) and your consent by submitting the form.
Retention: Contact data is retained for the duration necessary to respond and follow up on your enquiry, then deleted within 12 months unless a business relationship is established.
3.2 Server Log Files
Our hosting provider automatically collects standard server log data, including:
- IP address (anonymised where possible)
- Date and time of access
- Requested URL and referrer
- Browser type and operating system
- HTTP status code
Purpose: Security, abuse prevention, and site reliability.
Legal basis: Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Retention: Log files are automatically deleted after 30 days.
3.3 Analytics (Optional)
If you accept analytics cookies via the cookie banner, we use a self-hosted, cookie-free analytics system running entirely on our own server. Our analytics system:
- Does not use cookies for tracking
- Does not collect personal data
- Does not track users across sites
- Does not send any data to third parties
- Is GDPR-compliant without requiring consent (we ask anyway as best practice)
- Generates a daily-rotating, one-way hash from your IP and browser type — this hash cannot be reversed to identify you and is discarded every 24 hours
- Collects only aggregate, non-identifiable data (page views, referral sources, country-level location, browser type, device class)
- Stores all data on our own server — nothing leaves our infrastructure
Purpose: Understanding site traffic and improving content.
Legal basis: Your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
