The data controller responsible for processing your personal data is: Falcon Venture Studio GmbH, Berlin, Germany. Contact: hello@falcon.studio
2. What data we collect
When you submit the contact or waitlist form, we collect your email address and any optional information you provide (company name, role, message). We also collect server logs (IP address, timestamp, browser user-agent) for security purposes. We do not collect data through analytics trackers without your consent.
3. Purpose and legal basis
We process your email to respond to your enquiry or add you to our waitlist (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR — contractual necessity / pre-contractual measures). Server logs are processed for security and fraud prevention (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — legitimate interest). With your explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), we may send product updates.
4. Data storage
All personal data is stored exclusively on servers in the EU (AWS eu-central-1, Frankfurt, Germany). No data is transferred to third countries outside the EEA.
5. Retention
Contact form submissions are retained for 24 months or until you request deletion, whichever comes first. Server logs are automatically deleted after 30 days. Waitlist entries are retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion.

Under GDPR you have the right to: access your data (Art. 15), rectify inaccuracies (Art. 16), erase your data (Art. 17), restrict processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20), and object to processing (Art. 21). To exercise any right, contact hello@falcon.studio. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority.
