Who is responsible for your data

The person responsible for your personal data is Dritan Mata, also known as Photius, running Fathers' Wars from Athens, Greece. You can reach me at contact@fatherswars.com. This page says what I collect, why, who else touches it, how long I keep it and what rights you have. It follows the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Greek Law 4624/2019.

What I collect and why

I collect very little. This is the full list.

• The application form. If you apply for a founding spot, you send me what you type: your name, your email and your answers. I use it to read your application, reply to you and decide together with you whether we work together. The form is hosted by Tally, an online form tool. What happens on the Tally page is also covered by Tally's own privacy policy.
• Emails and messages. If you write to me, I keep your message and my reply so I can answer you and remember the conversation.
• If we work together. I keep what is needed to run the support and to issue invoices: your name, contact details, payment records and the notes from our conversations.
• Basic technical data. The site is hosted by Lovable. Like every web host, it may process technical data such as your IP address when your browser loads a page.
• A visit counter. The hosting platform has a built-in visit counter. It counts visits to pages. It uses no cookies and I cannot tell who you are from it.
• Your cookie choice. If you press Accept or Reject on the cookie bar, your browser stores that choice on your own device so the bar does not keep asking. See the cookies section below.

Legal reasons I use your data

• To answer your application or your message and to take steps you ask for before we agree to work together: GDPR Article 6(1)(b).
• To deliver the support we agreed and to take payment: GDPR Article 6(1)(b).
• To keep invoices and accounting records that Greek tax law requires: GDPR Article 6(1)(c).
• To keep the website secure and working, and to know roughly how many people visit: my legitimate interest, GDPR Article 6(1)(f). You can object to this.
• To store your cookie choice on your device: it is strictly necessary to respect that choice.

Health details: please do not send them

I do not ask for health information. Please do not write medical details or diagnoses in the application or in the first messages. I am not a doctor or a therapist. If you send health information anyway, I will use it only to answer you, I will not share it, and you can ask me at any time to delete it.

Who else sees your data

I do not sell your data. I do not use it for advertising. I do not share it for marketing. These are the only others who can see it, and only as far as needed:

• Tally, which hosts the application form.
• Lovable, which hosts this website.
• My email provider, which delivers and stores our emails.
• My accountant, who sees invoicing data if we work together.
• Payment: price and payment are agreed directly with you. If a payment provider or a bank is used, they see the payment data. I never see or store your card number. If I start using a payment provider, I will name it on this page.
• Authorities, if the law requires me to give them data.

If I change the form tool or any provider listed here, I will update this page.

Data outside the EU

Some of the tools I use are run by companies that may process data outside the European Union. Where that happens, they must protect your data with legal safeguards, such as the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

How long I keep it

• Applications and messages from people I do not end up working with: I delete them within 12 months.
• Records of paid work, invoices and payments: for as long as Greek tax and accounting law requires.
• Notes from our conversations: until the support ends, then I delete them within 12 months, unless the law requires me to keep something longer or you ask me to keep it.
• Your cookie choice stays on your own device until you clear it or change it.

Your rights

You have the right to:

• know what data I hold about you and get a copy,
• correct data that is wrong,
• have your data deleted,
• limit how I use it,
• receive your data in a common format,
• object to uses based on my legitimate interest,
• withdraw any consent you gave, at any time. Withdrawing does not affect what was done before.

To use any of these rights, write to contact@fatherswars.com. I will answer within one month. I may ask you to confirm who you are first.

Complaints

If you think I handle your data wrongly, please tell me first, and I will try to fix it. You can also complain to the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (dpa.gr, complaints@dpa.gr, Kifissias Avenue 1-3, Athens), or to the data protection authority of the country where you live.

Children

This site is for adult fathers. It is not meant for children, and I do not knowingly collect data from them. If a child has sent me data, write to me and I will delete it.

No automated decisions

I do not use automated decision-making or profiling. Every application is read by a person, me.

Cookies

This site does not set tracking or advertising cookies. I do not use analytics or advertising scripts. If that ever changes, I will ask for your consent first, through the cookie bar. The only thing stored on your device is your cookie choice, so the bar remembers your answer. Fonts are hosted on this site, not loaded from Google. The application form comes from Tally. It may set its own cookies, so on the Apply page it loads only after you press "Show the form here" or after you have accepted cookies. You can also open the form on Tally's own page. The links to Tally and Skool open in a new tab, and those sites have their own cookies and privacy policies.

Changes to this page

If I change this page in a way that matters, I will change the date at the top.
