Effective date: May 2026

The website dokuai.app is offered under the DigitalFreedom brand. The data controller (Art. 4(7) GDPR) is:

Data protection inquiries: data-protection@digitalfreedom.co.za
General inquiries: hello@digitalfreedom.co.za

2. GDPR as the global baseline

We adopt the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as the strictest baseline and apply it as a global floor — every visitor, in every country, benefits from at least the GDPR-level protections set out here. We additionally respect any applicable local data-protection law (UK GDPR, Swiss FADP, CCPA/CPRA, PIPEDA, Australian Privacy Act, LGPD, APPI, PIPA, DPDP Act, POPIA, etc.); where it is more protective for you, the more protective standard applies.

3. What we collect on this website

3.1 Hosting (server log data)

The site is hosted on GitHub Pages. When you load a page, GitHub processes:

• IP address
• browser user-agent string
• requested URL and timestamp
• referrer URL (where available)

Purpose: deliver the page and protect against abuse (rate limiting, anti-DDoS). Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in operating a secure website). Retention: per GitHub's policies. International transfer is covered by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. See GitHub's General Privacy Statement.

3.2 Browser local storage

The site sets two keys in your browser's localStorage:

• theme — your light/dark preference, only when you actively switch the theme. No personal data, never transmitted to a server.
• cookie-consent — your decision on the cookie banner (granted or denied). Set when you click Accept or Decline.

You can clear both entries any time in your browser settings. Legal basis: § 25(2) No. 2 TTDSG (strictly necessary for the user-chosen function).

3.3 Google Analytics 4 with Consent Mode v2

Provider: Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (for users in the EU).

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which content works. Cookies and personalised measurement only run after you accept the cookie banner. Before consent, only cookieless, aggregated pings are sent to Google — Consent Mode v2 defaults (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, analytics_storage) are all set to denied before gtag.js loads.

Data processed after consent: pseudonymous client ID, IP address (anonymised on Google's side), page URL, referrer, language, screen size, time on page, interactions with the cookie banner. Purpose: aggregated reach and engagement measurement. Retention: 14 months (GA4 default).

Legal basis:

• Cookies and personalised measurement: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent) + § 25(1) TTDSG.
• Cookieless aggregated pings before consent: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in aggregated reach measurement).

International transfer: data may be processed in the United States. Google relies on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and EU Standard Contractual Clauses as the legal basis for transfers outside the EU.

You can withdraw consent at any time via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

3.4 What we do not do on this website

• no marketing tracking pixels (Meta, LinkedIn, X)
• no third-party fonts (Geist is self-hosted from this domain — no connection to Google Fonts)
• no payment or checkout — purchases happen on Apple's App Store
• no account creation, login or contact form on this website
• no newsletter signup on this website
• no audio, video or session-replay recording

4. Sub-processors used by this website

For the website itself, the following parties may process data on our behalf or as independent controllers:

The app-specific sub-processor list (Civo for backend infrastructure, OpenAI for AI inference, RevenueCat for subscriptions, Apple as App Store merchant of record, and others) is documented in the separate DokuAI app privacy policy.

5. International data transfers

Transfers to the United States (GitHub, Google) are covered by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (adequacy decision of 10 July 2023, Art. 45 GDPR) and additionally by EU Standard Contractual Clauses where required. We rely on the providers' contractual safeguards and on supplementary technical measures (TLS in transit, anonymisation on the provider's side).

6. Your rights

Under GDPR you have the right to:

• access the personal data we hold about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
• rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
• erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
• restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)

• object to processing on grounds of legitimate interest (Art. 21 GDPR)
• withdraw consent at any time, with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR)

To exercise any of these rights, email data-protection@digitalfreedom.co.za.

6.1 Additional regional rights
