  • message content, if you contact us
  • technical data, such as IP address, browser type, operating system, referrer URL, date and time of access, and requested pages/files

4. Website hosting and server logs

This website is hosted by Vercel Inc.

When you visit this website, the hosting provider may automatically process technical data such as your IP address, browser information, operating system, date and time of access, referrer URL, and requested files.

This processing is necessary to deliver the website, maintain security, prevent abuse, and ensure technical stability.

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interest in operating a secure and functional website.

5. Waitlist

If you join the Erea waitlist, we process the email address you provide.

We use your email address to:

  • manage the waitlist
  • send updates about Erea
  • inform you about launch, availability, or early access

Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR — consent.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at erea@erea.app. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

6. Contact

If you contact us by email or through a contact form, we process the information you provide in order to respond to your request.

Legal basis:

  • Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interest in responding to inquiries

We use Brevo to manage the waitlist and send email updates.

8. Analytics and tracking

This website does not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or behavioral tracking tools.

9. App data

This Privacy Policy currently applies to the Erea website.

The Erea app may have its own privacy policy when released. If the app stores books, notes, reading progress, highlights, or settings locally on your device, this data is not automatically transmitted to us unless the app explicitly offers online features such as sync, accounts, cloud backup, AI features, or support uploads.

We do not sell personal data.

11. Data retention

We keep waitlist email addresses until:

  • you ask us to delete your email address
  • you withdraw your consent
  • the waitlist is no longer needed
  • or Erea is discontinued

Contact messages are kept only as long as necessary to respond to the inquiry or handle follow-up communication.

Technical server logs are retained according to the hosting provider’s retention settings.

12. Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

  • request access to your personal data
  • request correction of inaccurate data
  • request deletion of your data
  • request restriction of processing
