1. General information

This policy applies to the website operating at the url address sculptor.dev. The website operator and personal data administrator is Jonasz Maczyński. Operator's e-mail contact address is jo@sculptor.dev. The operator is the administrator of your personal data in relation to the data provided voluntarily on the website. The website uses personal data for the following purposes:

• - running a newsletter,

2. Selected data protection methods used by the operator

The areas where personal data is logged in and entered are protected in the transmission layer with an SSL certificate. This ensures that personal data and login details entered on the website are encrypted on the user's computer and can only be read on the target server. Personal data stored in the database are encrypted in a way that only the operator, holding the key, can access them. This ensures data protection even in the event of a database being stolen from the server. User passwords are stored in a hashed format, which means they cannot be reversed. This method is considered the modern standard for storing user passwords. The website also employs two-factor authentication as an additional layer of protection for logging into the website. The operator regularly changes its administrative passwords to enhance security. Additionally, the operator performs regular backups to protect data. Keeping all software used by the operator to process personal data updated is an essential aspect of data protection, which includes regular updates of programming components.
