Website hosting

For technical hosting, Aaron Weber uses a server operated by devs group. The retreat registration database is also stored there. When you visit the website, technically necessary access data such as your IP address, time of access, page viewed and browser information may be processed in server logs. This processing supports the secure and stable operation of the website.

Fonts

The font used on this website is loaded locally from this server. Visiting the website therefore does not establish a connection to Google Fonts or any other font provider.

Email enquiries

For bookings and enquiries, you can email me directly. I process the information in your message to reply and handle your request.

Retreat registration

When you use the registration form for the Silent New Year Retreat, your contact details and participation information are processed through a secure interface and stored in a non-public database on the server operated by devs group. I use this information to review your registration, reply to you, organise your participation and, after consulting you personally, create and send a booking confirmation. Optional information about mental or physical health is processed only when you explicitly consent in the form. It is used solely to assess suitability and make participation as safe and well supported as possible. You may withdraw this consent at any time with future effect. The administration area is access-protected, and sensitive information is not included in notification emails. The data is deleted once it is no longer required for organisation, delivery or statutory record-keeping obligations.

If you apply for a helper or scholarship place, I use the information about your finances and application to review your request. This information is stored with your registration in the protected admin area.

When you subscribe with your consent, your email address is stored in my newsletter list at Resend. I use this list for news about my offerings and dates. You can unsubscribe by email at any time and through the unsubscribe link in future newsletters. For more information about processing by Resend, see the privacy information of Resend.

Cookies and analytics

This website produces its own statistics on the devs group server. It counts page views and link clicks, as well as estimated daily visitors and their approximate country and, where available, city. To estimate daily visitors, a short-lived identifier is generated in memory from the IP address and browser information and discarded on the first recorded visit after the change of day or when the server restarts; IP addresses and identifiers are not stored in the statistics. The country and city are determined locally from the IP address. Form contents and URL parameters are not collected. The statistics use no analytics cookies and are not transmitted to Google or other analytics services. Stored totals are deleted after 13 months. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control browser signals are respected. Aggregated statistics also include broad device and source categories without full referring addresses, hourly page views (UTC), the first page recorded per estimated daily visitor, and successful form submissions. No cookies or browser storage are used for analytics and visitors are not recognized across days. Visible browser tabs send an activity signal every 30 seconds. A protected live view temporarily displays approximate location, broad source, device category, last reported page and estimated elapsed time. These details are held only in memory and removed after 15 minutes without a signal on the next analytics request or event, or at the latest on day rotation or server restart. The existing daily identifier is used; no permanent individual visit histories are stored. The temporary live record also includes estimated visible duration in total and per page (up to 20 pages). Timing pauses when a tab is hidden; recently ended visits remain visible for up to 15 minutes.

Your rights

Where the legal requirements are met, you have the right to access, correct or erase your data, restrict its processing, receive it in a portable format and object to its processing. You can also lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority.
