Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 10, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how CostelMedia.com (“we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you use this website, in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
1. Who we are
CostelMedia.com is a content marketing studio.
Registered company: [COMPANY REGISTRATION NUMBER]
Registered address: [REGISTERED ADDRESS]
Contact for privacy inquiries: barcuteanradu@yahoo.com
2. What data we collect
We collect personal data you voluntarily submit through our lead capture forms — the onboarding quiz, the budget calculator, and the contact form. This may include: your name, email address, phone number, company name, and any message or context you provide (such as quiz answers or project details).
We do not collect payment information, government ID numbers, or other sensitive categories of data through this site.
3. Why we collect it (purpose & legal basis)
We use this data to respond to your inquiry, schedule calls, and provide the custom recommendations or quotes you requested (legal basis: performance of pre-contractual steps taken at your request, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
Where you provide your email for marketing updates, we add you to our contact list via Brevo (Sendinblue) to send relevant marketing communications (legal basis: consent, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may opt out at any time — see Section 6 below.
4. Who we share it with
We use Brevo (Sendinblue) as our email marketing and contact management processor. Your name, email, and phone number (if provided) are stored in Brevo's systems to manage our contact list and send you communications. Brevo acts as a data processor on our behalf and maintains its own GDPR-compliant safeguards.
We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
5. How long we keep it
We retain your contact data for as long as you remain subscribed to our communications or until you request deletion, whichever comes first. Inquiry records not converted into an ongoing relationship are periodically reviewed and deleted.
6. Your rights
Under GDPR, you have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you; request correction of inaccurate data; request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten"); object to or restrict processing; request a portable copy of your data; and withdraw consent to marketing communications at any time (opt-out).
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at barcuteanradu@yahoo.com. You may also unsubscribe directly from any marketing email using the link included in that email.
If you believe your data protection rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority.
7. Cookies
This site uses a cookie consent banner on first visit. We use Vercel Analytics, which is cookieless and does not track individual visitors or require consent. Any future cookie-based tracking tools (e.g., Google Analytics) will only load after you explicitly accept non-essential cookies via the banner. See the banner for more detail, or contact us with questions.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
