We may collect personal information such as your name, email address, username, or other data you provide voluntarily. We also collect technical data including IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, date/time of access, and referrer URL. Cookies and tracking data may also be collected to improve your experience. Your information is used to operate and improve our website, communicate with you, personalize your experience, and comply with legal obligations.

For users in the EU, our legal basis for processing includes consent (e.g., newsletter signup), legitimate interests (e.g., improving functionality), and legal obligations.

Depending on your location, you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, object to or restrict processing, opt out of the sale of personal information (CCPA), and withdraw consent at any time. To exercise your rights, contact us at matteo@hwmaster.net. We implement reasonable measures to protect your data, but no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure.

If you are outside the EU, your data may be transferred to countries with different privacy laws, but we ensure adequate protection. We may update this policy. Updates will be posted on this page with the new effective date.
