Privacy
Information and purposes
We use account and contact details, submitted content and messages to provide artist accounts, review submissions and answer enquiries. Required fields are marked; without them, we may be unable to provide the requested service. Approved artist and artwork content is public. Internal contact details and team notes are not automatically published.
Processing is based on providing requested services and pre-contractual steps, our legitimate interests in operating and securing art.gl and handling correspondence, legal obligations, and your consent for optional analytics.
Recipients
Hosting and email providers process data to operate the service. Enquiries and sender contact details may be shared with the relevant artist or authorised representative to respond.
Optional analytics
Google Analytics runs only with your consent on eligible public pages. It receives page and usage information, browser/device information and analytics identifiers; Google also processes connection information. We do not send form entries, contact details, private page addresses, search terms or sensitive URL parameters to analytics.
art.gl receives site statistics. With separate permission, a participating artist or representative receives statistics only for that artist’s public profile and work-list pages. A different artist or replacement analytics ID requires a new choice. Artist analytics does not receive visits to other artists, artworks or site sections. Analytics is excluded from administration, artist accounts, sign-in and inquiry pages.
Analytics is off until you choose. Allow analytics permits art.gl and, on an artist profile, only the current artist identified in Settings. Use Settings or Analytics preferences in the footer to allow art.gl and individual artists separately. Reject analytics rejects all saved analytics permissions.
Essential account and security features work without analytics. Your choice and art.gl-configured analytics cookies last up to 180 days. Direct Google Analytics cookies are configured not to extend on each visit. Google Analytics data retention is separate and depends on each property’s settings; contact art.gl for the period that applies to a particular recipient. This notice covers analytics, not advertising or unrelated third-party tags.
Change or withdraw consent through Analytics preferences in the footer. Withdrawal stops future collection without affecting earlier lawful processing. It does not automatically erase previously collected data. Reject analytics clears accessible Google Analytics cookies and reloads the page to unload analytics code. Changing selected recipients also reloads a page when needed. Browser settings can remove stored choices and cookies.

Retention and international processing
We retain account and submission data while needed to provide the service, correspondence while needed to handle enquiries and related claims, and security records and backups for their applicable retention periods. Legal obligations may require longer retention.
The site is hosted in Ukraine. Google may also process data outside the EEA.
Your rights
Where applicable, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your data, object to processing, or withdraw consent. Contact i@art.gl. You may complain to your local data protection authority, including the Austrian Datenschutzbehörde.
