Privacy Policy
Last updated: 15 July 2026
ASH – El Santuario de ASH respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data.
This Privacy Policy explains how personal data submitted through this website is collected, used and protected in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Spanish data protection legislation.
1. Who is responsible for your personal data?
The data controller for personal data collected through this website is:
Carlos Lacalle
Project: ASH – El Santuario de ASH
Location: Madrid, Spain
Email: hello@ash-sanctuary.com
ASH – El Santuario de ASH is currently a project in development. If responsibility for the processing of personal data is transferred in the future to a legally constituted organisation or foundation, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.
2. What personal data do we collect?
We may collect personal data that you voluntarily provide when you contact us or submit a form through this website.
Depending on the form you use, this may include:
-
your first and last name;
-
your email address;
-
the reason you are contacting us or how you would like to get involved;
-
the content of your message; and
-
any other information you choose to provide.
Please do not include sensitive personal information in your message unless it is genuinely necessary for your enquiry.
We may also receive limited technical information generated when you visit the website, depending on the cookies and technologies used by our website platform. Further information about cookies and similar technologies will be provided separately where applicable.
3. Why do we use your personal data?
We use personal data submitted through our forms to:
-
receive and respond to enquiries;
-
communicate with people interested in ASH and its development;
-
respond to offers of volunteering, professional support, partnerships or other forms of involvement;
-
respond to enquiries about financial support; and
-
maintain appropriate records of communications where necessary.
We will not use personal data submitted through these forms for unrelated marketing purposes without an appropriate legal basis.
4. What is our legal basis for processing your data?
When you submit a form through this website, we process the personal data you provide on the basis of your consent, which you give by actively accepting the privacy notice before submitting the form.
Where communication subsequently develops into a specific relationship, agreement or request for measures before entering into an agreement, other legal bases under the GDPR may apply where appropriate.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at hello@ash-sanctuary.com. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
5. How long do we keep your personal data?
We will retain your personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your enquiry and manage any resulting communication or relationship.
Where no ongoing relationship develops, personal data will be deleted or anonymised when it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to any legal obligations requiring information to be retained for a longer period.
6. Who may have access to your personal data?
Personal data will only be accessed by people who need it in order to manage the ASH project and respond to enquiries.
We do not sell your personal data.
The website is currently hosted and operated using Wix, which may process personal data and technical information on our behalf in connection with the operation, hosting and functionality of the website and its forms.
Other service providers may process limited personal data where necessary to provide services such as email or website infrastructure. Where required, such providers act under appropriate data protection arrangements.
7. International transfers of personal data
Some technology service providers used to operate this website may process or store data outside the European Economic Area.
Where personal data is transferred internationally, such transfers must be subject to an appropriate legal mechanism and safeguards as required by applicable data protection law.
8. Your data protection rights
Under applicable data protection law, you may have the right to:
-
access the personal data we hold about you;
-
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; and
-
withdraw your consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
To exercise any of these rights, contact: hello@ash-sanctuary.com
We may need to request information necessary to verify your identity before responding to a request.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos – AEPD) if you believe that your personal data has been processed in breach of applicable data protection law.
9. Children’s privacy
This website is not specifically directed at children and we do not knowingly seek to collect personal data from children through our contact forms.
If you are under the age at which you may validly provide consent to the processing of your personal data under applicable law, please ask a parent or legal guardian to contact us on your behalf.
10. Security
We take reasonable organisational and technical measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can guarantee absolute security.
11. Cookies and similar technologies
This website may use cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for its operation and, depending on the website configuration, may also use analytics or other optional technologies.
Where required by law, non-essential cookies will not be used without the appropriate consent.
Further information about the cookies and technologies actually used by this website will be provided through the relevant cookie information and consent settings.
