How syfers.eu handles personal data.
syfers.eu has no accounts or newsletter. The contact form prepares a message in your email app. Visits are counted with Plausible and Vercel Web Analytics, without marketing cookies or advertising. This page explains what is processed and how to contact us.
Your contact message
The contact form asks for your name, email address, topic and message. An organization or Lab is optional. The details stay in this page while you fill it in. Opening the email link passes them to your email app, where you decide whether to send them to contact@syntrociety.org. They are not submitted to a server by this form. If you send the email, your details can be used to reply.
What we collect
When you visit syfers.eu, your IP address is processed in transit by the hosting provider for the strict purpose of delivering the page. Plausible Analytics records the path, referrer, country, and user-agent in an aggregate, cookie-less form. Vercel Web Analytics records the page, referrer, approximate location (country, region, city), browser, operating system and device type, and tells returning visitors apart by a hash of the request that is discarded after 24 hours. No persistent identifier is stored in your browser.
Why we collect it
We collect analytics to know which pages are read and which are not, so that we know which pages to revise first. We do not profile readers, do not run advertising, do not sell or share data, and do not embed third-party trackers.
Cookies
syfers.eu does not set any cookies of its own. Plausible Analytics and Vercel Web Analytics are both cookie-less by design.
Analytics
Plausible is EU-hosted (Germany) and operated under GDPR. Vercel Web Analytics is run by Vercel, which also hosts the site, and is used here only for aggregated statistics. In both cases the data is aggregated and anonymous. Lawful basis: legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in understanding how the site is read.
Sub-processors
syfers.eu uses Vercel for hosting and for Vercel Web Analytics, and Plausible Analytics for cookie-less statistics. Plausible is EU-hosted (Germany); Vercel routes edge traffic globally with EU residency where contractually selected. The full federation sub-processor list, including the partners used by the other federation sites, is published at https://syntrociety.org/sub-processors.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, and object to processing of your personal data. Because our analytics are anonymous we hold no identifier with which to find your data; for any other channel (email, contact form), write to contact@syntrociety.org.
