Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how afterdarklandmark.com ("we", "us", or "our") handles information about visitors to this website. We are committed to protecting your privacy and complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Finnish data protection laws.

1. Information We Collect

We collect minimal data necessary for the operation of this website:

• Age verification status: A boolean value stored in your browser's local storage indicating that you have confirmed you are 18 or older. No personal data is collected.
• Cookie consent preferences: Your cookie consent choices are stored in local storage. No personal data is transmitted to third parties based on this choice.
• Analytics data (optional): If you consent to analytics cookies, we may collect aggregated, anonymised usage statistics such as page views and session duration. This data is not attributable to any individual.

2. Legal Basis for Processing

Under the GDPR, our legal basis for processing the limited data described above is:

• Consent: You provide consent for optional cookies through the cookie consent banner and preferences modal.
• Legitimate interest: We process age verification status to comply with legal requirements and responsible publishing practices.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use the information collected solely for:

• Verifying visitor age as a responsible practice
• Remembering your cookie consent preferences
• Understanding aggregate usage patterns to improve the website (if analytics consent is given)

We do not use your data for marketing, profiling, or sale to third parties.

4. Data Storage

All data is stored locally in your browser using the browser's local storage API. We do not maintain a server-side database of visitor information. No personal data is transmitted to or stored on our servers.

5. Your Rights Under GDPR

As a visitor to this website, you have the following rights under the GDPR:

• Right of access: You may request information about any personal data we hold about you.
• Right to rectification: You may request correction of inaccurate personal data.
• Right to erasure: You may request deletion of your personal data.
• Right to restrict processing: You may request that we limit how we use your data.
• Right to data portability: You may request a copy of your data in a structured format.
• Right to object: You may object to the processing of your data.
• Right to withdraw consent: You may withdraw consent for optional cookies at any time by clearing your browser's local storage or using the cookie preferences modal.

6. Third-Party Services

This website does not integrate with third-party advertising networks, social media platforms, or data brokers. Images are served from Pexels, which may set its own cookies. Please refer to Pexels' Privacy Policy for details.

7. Data Retention

Since all data is stored in your browser's local storage, data is retained until you clear your browser data or withdraw consent. We do not retain any server-side visitor data.

8. Children's Privacy

This website is not intended for individuals under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. The age gate prevents access by visitors who do not confirm they are 18 or older.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
