6. International data transfers
Some of our providers (such as Google and Cloudflare) are based in or transfer data to the United States and other countries outside the European Economic Area.

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above. Analytics data is retained according to the provider's default settings (for Google Analytics, this is typically up to 14 months). Server and security logs are kept for a short period and then deleted or anonymised.
8. Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate data.
- Request erasure of your data ("right to be forgotten").
- Restrict or object to certain processing.
- Request data portability.
- Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting prior lawful processing.
In practice, we do not store personal data in a directly identifiable form, so in most cases there is no identifiable data associated with you to access, correct or erase.
To exercise any of these rights, email:RAM-mageddon @ brunovt.be. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit / Autorité de protection des données).
