# Privacy Policy

**Effective date:** 6 November 2026.

## Who is responsible

The controller of personal data processed through realromania.info is **Asociația Curaj Înainte**, a Romanian non-profit association, fiscal code 39175610, Str. Hagi Ghiță 17, Sector 1, 011501 București, Romania. Contact: [contact@realromania.info](mailto:contact@realromania.info).

## What we process and why

- **Messages you send us.** When you use the contact form we receive your name, email address, subject and message, so we can answer you. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in replying to people who write to us (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)). We keep the correspondence for up to 2 years after our last exchange.
- **Technical data.** Like every website, our hosting server records IP addresses, browser type, the pages requested and the time, to keep the site secure and working. Legal basis: legitimate interest. These logs are kept for a limited period, at most 12 months.
- **Videos and maps.** Only if you allow them, your browser loads content from YouTube, Google Maps, OpenStreetMap or GitHub Pages, which then receive your IP address and act as independent controllers. Legal basis: your consent (Art. 6(1)(a)), which you can withdraw at any time.
- **Statistics.** Only if you allow them, Google Analytics 4 measures visits on our behalf. Legal basis: your consent.

We do not run accounts, comments, newsletters or advertising, we do not sell data and we do not make automated decisions about you.

## Who receives data

- Our hosting provider, which stores the site and its logs in the European Union.
- The email provider that delivers contact-form messages to us.
- Google, the OpenStreetMap Foundation and GitHub, only for the content you allow, as described in the [cookie policy](https://realromania.info/cookies/).
- Public authorities, where the law requires it.

## Transfers outside the EU

Google and GitHub may process data in the United States. Both participate in the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework; where it does not apply, transfers rely on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

## Your rights

You can ask for access to your data, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and you can object to processing based on legitimate interest or withdraw consent at any time, without affecting earlier processing. Write to [contact@realromania.info](mailto:contact@realromania.info); we answer within one month.

You can also complain to the Romanian supervisory authority: Autoritatea Națională de Supraveghere a Prelucrării Datelor cu Caracter Personal (ANSPDCP), B-dul G-ral. Gheorghe Magheru 28–30, Sector 1, 010336 București, [anspdcp@dataprotection.ro](mailto:anspdcp@dataprotection.ro), +40 318 059 211, [dataprotection.ro](https://www.dataprotection.ro/).

## Children

The site is not aimed at children under 16. If we learn that we received a child’s data without the required consent, we delete it.

## Security

The site is served only over encrypted connections (HTTPS), runs without third-party plugins, and limits access to its administration. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we keep what we hold to the minimum.

## Applicable law and changes

We apply the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), Law no. 190/2018 and Law no. 506/2004. When this policy changes, we update this page and its effective date.
