The controller of personal data collected through https://shenton.app is:

In this Privacy Policy, "we", "us", and "our" refer to the data controller identified above.
This Privacy Policy explains how we process personal data in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR) and applicable Polish data protection and electronic communications laws.
2. Personal Data We Collect
2.1. App Launch Notification Form
If you register your interest in our upcoming mobile application (the "App"), we collect the information you provide in the sign-up form:
- Name, if requested in the form.
- Email address.
We use these details only to manage your request and send you up to two email notifications concerning the App's launch and availability.
We do not use these contact details for unrelated marketing, newsletters, or ongoing promotional communications.
Providing your details is voluntary. However, if you do not provide a valid email address, we cannot send you the requested notifications.
2.2. Website Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our Website and to improve its performance.
Analytics may involve the collection of:
- Pages viewed and interactions with Website content.
- Traffic sources and referring websites.
- Browser, operating system, and device information.
- Approximate location derived from technical information.
- Online identifiers, cookie identifiers, and usage information.
We do not intentionally send names or email addresses submitted through the notification form to Google Analytics. The analytics implementation must be configured to prevent such data from being transmitted, including through URLs, event parameters, or other analytics fields.
Google Analytics loads automatically on the public Website and is disabled on localhost and loopback development hosts. We configure Google Analytics with Google signals and ad personalization disabled. We do not intentionally send names or email addresses submitted through the notification form to Google Analytics.
2.3. Technical and Security Information
Our hosting provider and Website infrastructure may process technical information such as IP addresses, server logs, timestamps, and security-related events where necessary to operate, protect, and troubleshoot the Website.

B. Website analytics
- Data: Website usage information, technical information, and online identifiers, as configured.

We will not rely on consent where another legal basis is appropriate, nor will we use personal data for purposes incompatible with those described above without a valid legal basis.
4. Email Notifications and Withdrawal of Consent
By submitting the notification form and affirmatively consenting to receive launch notifications, you request up to two emails about the App's release.
These emails may announce the release and provide information necessary to access or download the App.
We will not send unrelated promotional campaigns or ongoing newsletters using the details submitted through this form.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting [email protected]. Withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
If you withdraw consent before all notifications have been sent, we will stop sending further notifications and delete or otherwise appropriately dispose of your contact details, subject to any legal retention obligations.
We may retain limited evidence of consent or withdrawal where necessary to demonstrate compliance with applicable law.

We may disclose personal data to service providers where necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
Depending on the services actually used, these providers may include:

- Form-processing or database providers.
- Email delivery providers used to send launch notifications.
- Google Analytics, for Website analytics data configured not to include your name or email address.
- Professional advisers or public authorities where disclosure is required by law.
Where a provider processes personal data on our behalf, we will implement the contractual and other safeguards required by applicable law.
We do not sell personal data.
6. International Data Transfers
Some service providers may process personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA).
Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we will use an appropriate transfer mechanism where required by the GDPR, such as an applicable adequacy decision or Standard Contractual Clauses, and implement any additional safeguards required in the circumstances.
Information about the applicable transfer safeguards can be requested from [email protected].
7. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
- Launch notification details: We intend to delete the name and email address after the two planned notifications have been sent, or earlier if you withdraw consent. We may retain limited evidence of consent or withdrawal where necessary for compliance.
- Analytics data: Retained in accordance with the actual Google Analytics retention settings and any applicable legal requirements.
