• Project Specifications: Project details, architectural drawings, or technical enquiries shared through our forms or email communications.

• Technical Data: Automatically collected basic technical data (IP address, device specifications, browser type) processed through our website builder and hosting infrastructure (Framer).

2. Legal Basis and How We Use Your Information

Under Article 6 of the GDPR, we process your personal data under the following legal bases:
