RopeManager is currently operated as an independent project.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or the processing of your personal data, please use the contact details above.

2. What Personal Data We Process

Depending on how you use RopeManager, we may process the following categories of personal data.

2.1 Account data

If you create a RopeManager account, we process:

  • username;
  • email address;
  • password information in the form of a securely generated password hash;
  • account language preference;
  • account role and account status;
  • account creation date.

We do not store your password in plain text.

2.2 Website analytics

If you actively accept analytics cookies, RopeManager records limited information about your use of the website, including:

  • a randomly generated visitor identifier;
  • the page or URL path visited;
  • the date and time of the visit.

The visitor identifier is generated by RopeManager and is not intended to identify you by name.

Analytics are optional. If you reject analytics cookies, RopeManager does not create analytics visits for you.

2.3 Technical and security information

The operation of the website and its underlying infrastructure may involve technical information generated during connections to the website, such as information contained in server, network or security logs.

Such information may be processed by infrastructure and security providers where necessary to operate, secure and deliver the website.

3. How We Use Personal Data

We use personal data only for purposes connected with operating and improving RopeManager.

These purposes include:

  • creating and maintaining user accounts;
  • authenticating users;
  • providing account-related functionality;
  • remembering your language preference;
  • maintaining the security of the website;
  • preventing misuse of the website;
  • understanding how visitors use RopeManager when analytics consent has been provided;
  • improving the website and its functionality;
  • responding to requests concerning personal data or the operation of the website.

We do not use the analytics data described in this Privacy Policy for personalised advertising.

4. Legal Bases for Processing

Depending on the circumstances, we process personal data on the following legal bases under Article 6 of the GDPR:

Performance of a contract

Where processing is necessary to provide account functionality that you request, such as creating and maintaining your RopeManager account.

Consent

Optional analytics cookies and the associated analytics processing are based on your consent.

You may refuse analytics cookies without losing access to the website.

You may also withdraw your analytics consent at any time through the Cookie settings link available on the website.

Legitimate interests

Where appropriate, we may process limited information where this is necessary for legitimate interests such as maintaining website security, preventing abuse, protecting the service and keeping the website operational, provided that these interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.

5. Analytics and Cookies

RopeManager uses both technically necessary cookies and optional analytics cookies.

Technically necessary cookies may be used without consent where they are necessary for the operation of the website.

Analytics cookies are optional and are activated only after you explicitly select Accept analytics.

If you select Reject, analytics remain disabled.

The analytics consent choice is stored for up to 180 days. You can change or withdraw your choice through the Cookie settings link.

For more detailed information about cookies, please see our Cookie Policy.

6. Analytics Retention

Analytics visit records are retained for a maximum of 30 days.

After this period, records older than the retention period are automatically deleted from the RopeManager analytics database.

The retention period is intended to provide enough information for short-term website statistics while limiting the amount of historical visitor data retained.

7. Account Data Retention

Account data is retained for as long as your RopeManager account remains active or as otherwise necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

If an account is deleted, we will delete or anonymise personal data associated with the account where appropriate, unless we are required or permitted by law to retain particular information for a longer period.

8. Who May Receive Personal Data

RopeManager does not sell personal data.

Personal data may be processed by service providers that are necessary for operating the website and its infrastructure.

These may include:

  • hosting, networking and infrastructure providers;
  • security and traffic-management providers;
  • service providers used to operate the website and its database.

Such providers may process data on our behalf or process certain technical information as independent controllers, depending on the service and applicable law.

9. Cloudflare

RopeManager uses Cloudflare for parts of its website infrastructure, including network connectivity, security and the delivery of the website.

When you access RopeManager, certain technical information may therefore be processed by Cloudflare as part of providing these services.

Depending on the service involved, processing may take place outside the European Economic Area. Where personal data is transferred to a third country, the applicable legal safeguards required by the GDPR are relied upon.

For more information about Cloudflare's processing of personal data, please refer to Cloudflare's own privacy documentation.

10. International Data Transfers

Some service providers used by RopeManager may process personal data or technical information outside the European Economic Area.

Where such a transfer constitutes a transfer of personal data under the GDPR, we will rely on an applicable legal mechanism for international transfers, such as an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards where required.

11. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction.

These measures include, where appropriate:

  • encrypted HTTPS connections;
  • password hashing rather than storing plain-text passwords;
  • access controls for administrative functionality;
  • restricted access to the server and database;
  • separation of development and production environments;
  • security measures provided by infrastructure and network providers.

No method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

12. Your Rights

Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, you have the right to:

  • request access to your personal data;
  • request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data;
  • request deletion of your personal data;
  • request restriction of processing;
  • object to certain processing;
  • request data portability where applicable;
  • withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

For users in the Czech Republic, the supervisory authority is the Office for Personal Data Protection (Úřad pro ochranu osobních údajů).

13. How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise your privacy rights or ask a question about the processing of your personal data, contact us using:

[TO BE COMPLETED — privacy/contact email]

We may need to take reasonable steps to verify the identity of the person making a request before providing or changing personal data.

We will respond to valid requests within the period required by applicable data protection law.

14. Children

RopeManager is not specifically directed at children.

Where applicable, processing of personal data based on consent will comply with the age requirements and other conditions established by applicable law.

15. Automated Decision-Making

RopeManager does not currently use personal data for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on individuals.

16. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when RopeManager's functionality, data processing practices or applicable legal requirements change.

The latest version will always be published on this page together with its effective date.
