Who operates this website

This website is operated by [Sofia's legal name], based in Athens, Greece ("Sofia," "we," "us"). Questions about this policy can be sent to lessons@greekwithsofia.com or through the contact form on the homepage.

Information we collect

Contact form submissions: your name, email address, time zone, Greek level, learning goals, and any message you write. This information is used only to respond to your inquiry and arrange lessons.
Newsletter signups: your first name and email address, used only to send the content described at signup. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email.
Scheduling and lessons: if you book a lesson through a scheduling link (such as Calendly or Cal.com), that service collects the details needed to create the appointment under its own privacy policy. Lessons are held on Zoom, which processes meeting data under its own privacy policy.
Analytics: we use privacy-conscious analytics ([Cloudflare Web Analytics / other]) to understand overall site traffic. This does not build individual profiles.

How your information is used

Your information is used to respond to inquiries, schedule and deliver lessons, and send the newsletter if you subscribed. It is not sold, and it is not shared with third parties except the service providers needed to run this website (form processing, email delivery, and scheduling).

Cookies

This website does not use advertising cookies. If nonessential tracking is ever added (such as Google Analytics or advertising pixels), a cookie consent notice will be added at the same time.

Data retention

Inquiry emails are kept as long as needed to manage lessons and correspondence. Newsletter data is kept until you unsubscribe.

Legal basis

Depending on your location and the activity involved, processing is based on your consent (newsletter), steps taken at your request before arranging lessons (inquiries and scheduling), performance of an agreement (delivering lessons), or legitimate interests such as responding to messages and protecting the website from abuse.

International transfers

Because students and service providers may be located in different countries, personal data may be processed outside your own country. Where required, appropriate safeguards are used.

Children

This website is directed to adults.

Your rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting Sofia through the contact form. If you are in the EU/EEA, you also have rights under the GDPR, including the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

Changes to this policy

Updates to this policy will be posted on this page with a revised date.
