Last updated: 30 April 2026
Who we are
The data controller for this website is Datatrek, VAT (ΑΦΜ): 140001020, registered at the Science & Technology Park of Crete, Heraklion, 70013, Greece. You can reach us at soc@datatrek.io.
This notice applies exclusively to the datatrek.io marketing website. The provision of SOC, SIEM, XEDR, and other managed-security services is governed by a separate written agreement between Datatrek and the client, which includes its own data-processing terms.
Data we collect
This site collects only the data you actively provide and the minimum technical metadata required to deliver and protect the service.
Contact form submissions — when you fill in the contact form we collect:
- Full name
- Work email address
- Company name (optional)
- Your message
- Preferred language (locale)
Technical metadata — stored automatically alongside every form submission:
- IP address (used for spam prevention and security logging)
- Browser user-agent string
- Timestamp of submission
We do not run analytics, track browsing behaviour, or set any third-party cookies. We do not collect data from visitors who do not submit the contact form.
Legal basis for processing
We process your data on the following legal bases under the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679):
- Art. 6(1)(b) — performance of a contract / pre-contractual steps: processing your contact request and responding to your enquiry.
- Art. 6(1)(f) — legitimate interests: spam prevention (honeypot, rate limiting), server-side security logging, and protection of our infrastructure and other users. Our legitimate interests do not override your rights given the minimal, proportionate nature of the processing.
Where your data is processed
All personal data is processed and stored exclusively within the European Economic Area (EEA) on the following infrastructure providers, each acting as a data processor under a Data Processing Agreement (DPA):
- Hetzner Online GmbH — Germany
- Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL — Ireland
- Google Cloud EMEA Limited — Belgium
No personal data is transferred outside the EEA. No third-country transfers take place.
How long we keep data
Contact form submissions — retained for 24 months from the date of last contact, after which they are permanently deleted automatically.
Server-side request logs (IP address, user-agent) — retained for up to 90 days for security and audit purposes, then deleted.
Rails session cookie — expires at the end of your browser session (or sooner if you close the browser).
Your rights under GDPR
As a data subject you have the following rights under the GDPR:
- Access (Art. 15) — obtain a copy of your personal data and information about how it is processed.
- Rectification (Art. 16) — have inaccurate data corrected.
- Erasure (Art. 17) — request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
- Restriction of processing (Art. 18) — limit how we use your data in certain circumstances.
- Data portability (Art. 20) — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

Security
We protect personal data using appropriate technical and organisational measures, including:

- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) on all administrative access
- 24/7 SOC monitoring of our own infrastructure by the same NightWatch team that monitors clients
