How OuluES handles personal data

Scope

This policy applies to OuluES website use, OuluES event-related communication, and the members-only login available on this site.

Information we may process

Depending on how you interact with OuluES, we may process contact details you provide to us, such as your name, email address, and any information you include when contacting us.

If you use the members-only login on this website, authentication is handled through Firebase and may involve your email address and basic authentication state needed to keep you signed in.

Like most websites, basic technical information may also be processed by hosting, security, or browser infrastructure, such as IP address, browser details, and standard request logs.

Why we use the information

• To organize and communicate about OuluES events and activities.
• To respond to messages, questions, and reports sent to OuluES.
• To manage members-only access and basic website security.
• To maintain, improve, and troubleshoot the website and related services.
• To comply with legal obligations when required.

Third-party services

OuluES may rely on third-party service providers to operate parts of the website and event workflow. This currently includes services linked from the site and authentication infrastructure such as Firebase.

When you follow links to external event, social, or registration platforms, those services apply their own privacy policies and data-handling practices.

Data retention

OuluES aims to keep personal data only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, or for as long as applicable law or legitimate operational needs require.

Your choices

If you have questions about your data, want to correct information, or want to request deletion where applicable, contact OuluES at info@oulues.com.

Updates

OuluES may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect operational, legal, or technical changes.
