Privacy policy
Last updated: April 2025
1. Data controller
The personal data provided through this website is processed by the owner of the EFA Tattoo studio, based in Barcelona, Spain.
This website operates under the trading name EFA Tattoo and is managed by its owner as a self-employed professional.
2. Data we collect
We only collect data that the user voluntarily provides through the appointment request form:
• Full name
• Email address
• Phone number
• Description of the desired tattoo and optional reference images
We do not collect sensitive data or carry out automated profiling.
3. Purpose of processing
The data is used exclusively to:
• Manage the appointment request and communicate with you about it
• Coordinate the booking process via WhatsApp or email
We do not use your data for advertising without prior explicit consent.
4. Legal basis
The legal basis for processing is the performance of a pre-contractual relationship (Art. 6.1.b GDPR): the user provides their data to request information or manage an appointment, which implies the start of a contractual relationship.
5. Data retention
Data is retained for the time necessary to manage the request and, if the relationship is formalised, for the legally required period to comply with applicable tax and commercial obligations. Once the relationship ends, data will be deleted unless legally required to retain it.
6. Sharing with third parties
Data is not shared with third parties except by legal obligation. Communication between the studio and the client takes place through messaging tools (WhatsApp) and email, whose providers may act as data processors with their own privacy policies.
