Privacy Policy

We take the protection of your personal data seriously. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and how we use it. We process all personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1. Data controller

Fabian Lindner, Saturnweg 26
22391 Hamburg, Germany. Email: hello@mindlinen.com.

2. Data we collect

Server log files: Our hosting provider Vercel Inc. (USA, EU-DPF certified) automatically collects technical data (IP, browser, OS, referrer, time) for security and stable operation. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Retention: up to 30 days.

Web Analytics: We use Vercel Web Analytics — a cookieless, privacy-first analytics product that aggregates page views and core web vitals without setting cookies, without cross-site tracking, and without storing personal identifiers. See Vercel's privacy policy. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. No consent required because no information is stored on or read from your device.

Tool data (browser localStorage): Our free tools (Distortion Detector, Dopamine Menu Builder, Burnout Stage Identifier) store your inputs in your browser's localStorage so you can return to your data. This is first-party storage on your own device. Nothing is sent to our servers. Clearing your browser data deletes it.

Purchases: Processed by Paddle.com Inc. (Merchant of Record). Paddle collects billing information to fulfil the order. See Paddle's privacy policy.

3. Cookies & tracking

We do not use tracking cookies. We don't use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or other third-party tracking. Our analytics is cookieless. No cross-site profiling, no advertising IDs, no remarketing.

The only cookies that may be set are strictly necessary ones required by Paddle's checkout process when you make a purchase — these are essential for the transaction and exempt from consent requirements under § 25(2) TTDSG.

4. Your rights

Under GDPR you have the right to access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction (Art. 18), portability (Art. 20), and to object (Art. 21). To exercise any right, contact us at hello@mindlinen.com. You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
