Privacy policy

We don't track, we don't profile and we don't share data. We only keep what you send us, to reply to you.

The essentials

This site does not track you. It uses no third-party analytics, builds no profiles, shows no personalised advertising and does not sell or share data with anyone. You can read all the content without giving us any data.

The only personal data we process is what you choose to send us through a form, and only for what you ask: to reply to you, publish your comment or send you the newsletter.

Data controller

  • Controller: Fossil Desarrollos Tecnológicos, S.L.
  • Tax ID (NIF): B88375464
  • Address: 28008 Madrid (Spain)
  • Data protection contact: rgpd@fossildt.es

Visit statistics

To know which cases are read, the server itself counts visits, without cookies and without external services. For each visit it records the page, the date, the device type, the browser and the site you came from. Your IP address is not stored. To avoid counting the same visit twice, a short fingerprint is computed that changes every day and cannot be traced back to the IP or used to recognise you from one day to the next.

Data you send us

  • Contact form: name, email, subject and message. Used only to reply to you, by whichever means you tell us.
  • Comments: name, email and text. The name and text are published with the case if the comment is approved; the email is never published and is only used if we need to ask you about your comment.
  • Newsletter: email. Used only to send you the newsletter.

Each submission also stores the IP address and browser it came from, solely to detect and stop spam and abuse.

We don't do marketing follow-ups: we won't add you to campaigns, write to sell you anything or use your data for any purpose other than the one you sent it for.

We process the data you send because you consent by sending it (article 6.1.a of the General Data Protection Regulation). The IP address and browser attached to each submission are processed on the basis of our legitimate interest in protecting the site from spam and abuse (article 6.1.f). You can withdraw your consent at any time by writing to rgpd@fossildt.es.

How long we keep it

  • Contact messages: as long as needed to deal with your enquiry and, after that, only for any legally required periods.
  • Comments: while they are published, or until you ask for them to be removed.
  • Newsletter: until you unsubscribe.

Who else sees it

No one. We do not share data with third parties unless legally required. The providers that host the site and handle email delivery access it only as far as needed to provide that technical service, as data processors under the contract the law requires.

Your rights

You may at any time request access to your data, its rectification or erasure, object to its processing, request its restriction or portability, and withdraw your consent. To unsubscribe from the newsletter or exercise any of these rights, just write to rgpd@fossildt.es.

If you feel your request has not been handled properly, you can lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (www.aepd.es).

Children

The forms on this site are not intended for children under 14. If you are under that age, please don't send us personal data.

Changes to this policy

If anything changes in how data is handled, this page will be updated. If a change involved new processing, your consent would be requested before it applied.

Closed cases, every Thursday

One email a week with what was verified, what was refuted and what is still on the bench. No news roundups.

You can unsubscribe from any email.
