Privacy Policy

Last updated: 28 August 2026

1. Controller

The controller responsible for processing personal data on this website is:

Zechlin Consulting E.I.R.L. Monseñor Miller 54, 7501288 Providencia, Santiago de Chile, Chile Email: info@zechlin-consulting.com Phone: +56 9 4565 4284

Please use this address for any privacy question and to exercise your rights.

2. The short version

You can browse this website without actively giving us any data. When you simply visit, our hosting provider processes the technical access data needed to serve the page.

Analytics and advertising cookies are set only after you have explicitly consented through our cookie notice. Nothing analytical or marketing-related loads before that. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future.

We do not sell personal data and we do not use it for automated individual decision-making.

3. Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by Alfahosting GmbH, Germany. The provider processes the data that arises technically when the page is called up, on our behalf and under a data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR.

Each request is recorded in server log files:

• IP address of the requesting device
• date and time of access
• page or file requested
• referrer URL
• browser type and version, operating system
• volume of data transferred and HTTP status code

Purpose: delivering the website, ensuring system security, error analysis and defence against attacks. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the secure and reliable operation of the site. Retention: log files are deleted or anonymised after 30 days at the latest. They are not merged with other data.

4. Contact by email or phone

If you contact us by email or telephone, we process what you send us — usually your name, contact details and the content of your enquiry — in order to deal with your request.

Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR where your enquiry concerns a contract or its initiation; otherwise Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, based on our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries. Retention: we delete your enquiry once it has been dealt with conclusively, unless statutory retention obligations apply. Commercial and tax retention periods remain unaffected.

5. Appointment booking via Calendly

We use Calendly, a service of Calendly LLC, 271 17th St NW, Atlanta, GA 30363, USA, to arrange calls.

When you book an appointment, Calendly processes the data you enter — typically name, email address, time zone and any optional notes — together with technical connection data such as your IP address. Calendly uses cookies or comparable technologies for this.

The booking widget loads only after you have given consent. You can always contact us informally by email at info@zechlin-consulting.com instead, without using Calendly.

Purpose: arranging and managing appointments. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR (consent) together with § 25 (1) TDDDG for setting cookies and loading the service; Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR for handling the appointment itself. Third-country transfer: see section 10. Further information: https://calendly.com/privacy

6. Consent and cookies

On your first visit we ask, via a notice, whether you accept optional cookies and services. Strictly necessary cookies are set without consent; they are required to operate the site and store, in particular, your own choice in the cookie notice.

All optional services — analytics and advertising — load only after you consent. We use Google Consent Mode v2 for this: without your consent, no analytics or advertising cookies are set and no personal identifiers are transmitted to Google.

Legal basis: § 25 (1) TDDDG in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR for optional cookies; § 25 (2) TDDDG for strictly necessary cookies.

Withdrawal: you can change or withdraw your consent at any time, with effect for the future, via the “Cookie settings” link in the footer. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

7. Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager, a service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Tag Manager is not itself an analytics tool and does not store personal data in cookies. It manages and deploys the services described below. When Tag Manager loads, your IP address is transmitted to Google.

Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR (consent), § 25 (1) TDDDG. Tag Manager loads only after you have consented.

8. Google Analytics 4

We use Google Analytics 4, a service of Google Ireland Limited (address as above), to analyse how our website is used.

The data processed includes a truncated IP address, device and browser information, approximate location at city or region level, pages viewed, time on page and interactions. Google Analytics uses cookies and comparable identifiers for this. IP anonymisation is active by default in Google Analytics 4: the IP address is truncated before it is stored.

Purpose: audience measurement, understanding how the site is used, and improving what we offer. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR (consent), § 25 (1) TDDDG. Retention: user and event data are deleted automatically after 14 months. Further information: https://policies.google.com/privacy

9. Google Ads: conversion tracking and remarketing

We advertise through Google Ads (Google Ireland Limited, address as above) and use conversion tracking and remarketing.

If you reach this site through one of our ads, Google may set a cookie. This allows us to see whether an ad led to a desired action — booking a call, for example. We receive no information that would let us identify you personally; we see aggregated statistics only. Remarketing may cause our advertising to be shown to you again on other websites.

Purpose: measuring the effectiveness of our advertising and reaching interested visitors. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR (consent), § 25 (1) TDDDG. Objection: you can permanently disable personalised advertising at https://adssettings.google.com

10. Google Partner badge

We display the Google Partner badge in the footer. The image is loaded from a Google server (gstatic.com), which transmits your IP address to Google.

Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is demonstrating our certification as a Google Partner.

11. Recipients of your data

Beyond this we disclose your data only where you have consented, where we are legally obliged to do so, or where it is necessary to enforce our rights.

12. Transfers to third countries

We are a company established in Chile. Your data is therefore transferred to Chile in order to handle your enquiries and provide our services. The European Commission has not issued an adequacy decision for Chile. Where the transfer is necessary for the initiation or performance of a contract with you, it takes place on the basis of Art. 49 (1) (b) GDPR; otherwise on the basis of your explicit consent under Art. 49 (1) (a) GDPR.

Google and Calendly have their corporate headquarters in the United States. To the best of our knowledge both are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework; you can check the current status at https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/list. Where no certification applies, transfers are based on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses pursuant to Art. 46 (2) (c) GDPR. You may request a copy of these safeguards from us.

Please note that third countries need not offer a level of data protection comparable to the EU, and that public authorities may in some circumstances access data without you having effective legal remedies available.

13. Retention

We store personal data only for as long as is necessary for the relevant purpose or as required by statutory retention periods. Specific periods are stated with each processing activity above. After that, data is deleted or anonymised.

14. Your rights

You have the right at any time to:

• access the data we hold about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
• rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
• erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
• restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
• data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
• object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 GDPR)
• withdraw consent with effect for the future (Art. 7 (3) GDPR)

An informal message to info@zechlin-consulting.com is enough. Access is free of charge.

15. Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your data infringes the GDPR. The competent authority is in particular the one where you habitually reside, where you work, or where the alleged infringement took place.

16. Changes to this policy

We update this policy when our services or the legal situation change. The version published on this page applies. The date of the most recent change is shown above.
