1. Who is responsible
The controller of the personal data described in this policy is Bence Szekeres, publishing under the name ableproman (Szeged, Hungary), who operates the website countdown.ableproman.hu (the “Service”). Full provider details are in the impressum at ableproman.hu/impressum.
Contact for all privacy matters: support [at] ableproman [dot] hu. We have not appointed a data protection officer, as this is not required for this Service.
2. Data processed when you visit
Each time a page or file of the Service is requested, the web server records a log entry containing:
- your IP address;
- the date and time of the request;
- the requested address (URL), the HTTP status and the amount of data sent;
- the referring page, if your browser sends it;
- browser and operating-system information (the “user agent”).
Purpose: delivering the Service, keeping it secure, finding and fixing errors, and preventing abuse.
Legal basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest in running and securing the Service. The data is limited to what the technical operation requires and is not used to identify or track visitors.
Retention: the logs are kept by our hosting provider (see section 6) for the period set by its own retention practice. We do not use them for profiling, advertising or tracking, and we only look at them to diagnose faults or investigate abuse.
3. Data stored in your browser
When you create, edit or delete milestones, the Service saves them in your browser’s local storage (the keys minimal_countdown_events_v2 and minimal_countdown_dismissed_defaults; an older key, minimal_countdown_custom_events, is only read to carry old data over). They contain the titles and dates you entered. This data stays on your device: it is never sent to us or to anyone else, and we cannot see it.
The Service also uses your browser’s cache, through a service worker, to keep copies of its own files (pages, styles, scripts, icons) so that it loads faster and works offline. These copies contain no personal data.
The Service does not use cookies. Because this storage is needed for the functions you ask for (saving your milestones, working offline), we do not ask for consent. You can remove it at any time in your browser settings by clearing the site data for countdown.ableproman.hu; this also deletes your saved milestones.
4. Share links
The “copy link” button creates a link that contains the milestone’s title and date after the # sign. Browsers do not send that part of an address to web servers, so we never receive it. Anyone who has the link can see the title and date, so please do not put personal data of yourself or of others in milestone titles. Apps you paste the link into (messengers, e-mail) process it under their own privacy terms.
5. Messages you send us
If you e-mail us, we process your e-mail address, the content of your message and any details you include in order to answer you. Legal basis: Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (our legitimate interest in answering enquiries). We keep the correspondence for as long as needed to handle your request and any follow-up, then delete it, unless the law requires us to keep it longer. Our mailbox is operated by an e-mail service provider acting as our processor.
6. Who receives data
- Hosting provider: CSB IT Hosting & Consulting Bt. (AWH, awh.hu), 9985 Felsőszölnök, Hármashatár út 33., Hungary. It stores the Service’s files and server logs on our behalf as a processor. Its privacy notice: awh.hu/company/privacy-policy.
- E-mail service provider (processor), for messages you send us.
- Authorities, only where the law requires us to disclose data.
We do not sell personal data and do not share it for advertising or marketing.
7. Transfers outside the EEA
We do not ourselves transfer personal data to countries outside the European Economic Area, and the Service does not load anything from third-party servers that would do so.
8. Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
- access the personal data we hold about you (Article 15);
- have inaccurate data corrected (Article 16);
- have your data erased (Article 17);
- have processing restricted (Article 18);
- object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing based on legitimate interests (Article 21).
To exercise a right, write to us at the address in section 1. We answer within one month; where necessary, because of complexity or number of requests, this can be extended by up to two further months and we will tell you why. Requests are free of charge. We may ask you to confirm your identity.
Because the Service has no accounts, we can find log entries that concern you only if you give us details such as your IP address and the time of your visit (Article 11 GDPR).
9. Complaints and legal remedies
If you believe your data is processed unlawfully, please contact us first so we can put it right. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In Hungary this is:
- Nemzeti Adatvédelmi és Információszabadság Hatóság (NAIH)
- Seat: 1055 Budapest, Falk Miksa utca 9-11.; postal address: 1363 Budapest, Pf. 9.
- Phone: +36 (1) 391 1400
- Website: naih.hu; online filing: naih.hu/online-ugyinditas
You may also bring a court action under Article 79 GDPR and Act CXII of 2011 on Informational Self-determination and Freedom of Information.
10. Security
The Service is delivered only over encrypted HTTPS connections, enforces a strict Content Security Policy that blocks any code or content from other websites, and is built so that it needs no personal data to work.
11. Children
The Service does not ask anyone, including children, for personal data and is not directed at children.
12. No automated decisions or profiling
We do not take decisions based solely on automated processing, and we do not profile visitors.
13. Changes to this policy
We update this policy when the Service or the law changes. The date at the top shows the latest version; the previous language versions are replaced at the same time. This policy is available in English and Hungarian; if they differ, the Hungarian version prevails.
