This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used and handled when you visit Wave Watch at wave-watch.cz. The exact information processed can depend on the website services enabled at the time of your visit, including hosting, security, analytics, advertising, embedded content and contact forms.
Information You Choose to Provide
If you contact Wave Watch through a form or another communication method, we may receive the information you provide, such as your name, email address, message and any other details included in your enquiry. Please do not submit passwords, payment card details, identity documents or other unnecessary sensitive information.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, technical information may be recorded automatically when you visit. This can include an IP address, browser type, device information, referring page, pages visited, approximate location derived from network information, request timestamps and diagnostic or security logs. This information may be processed for website operation, security, troubleshooting, performance measurement and understanding how visitors use the site.
Cookies
Wave Watch may use cookies or similar technologies to support basic website functions, remember preferences, measure traffic, protect the website and support third party features. Some cookies may be necessary for website operation. Other cookies, including certain analytics or advertising cookies, may require consent depending on the visitor’s location and the technology being used. You can normally control or remove cookies through your browser settings. Where a cookie consent tool is displayed, you can also use the options provided there.
Analytics
We may use analytics services to understand website traffic and performance. Such services can process information about page views, device type, browser, referral source and interaction with the site. The exact analytics provider and configuration should be reflected in this policy and in the website’s cookie settings whenever such services are enabled.
Contact Form Data
Information submitted through our contact form may be retained for long enough to respond to an enquiry, maintain appropriate records, protect the site from abuse or resolve a dispute. We do not ask visitors to submit payment information through the standard editorial contact form.
Embedded Content and External Links
Articles may contain links to third party websites or embedded material such as images, videos or social content. Third party services can operate under their own privacy policies and may collect information when you interact with them. Wave Watch does not control the privacy practices of independent third party websites.
Advertising and Affiliate Links
If advertising or affiliate services are used on Wave Watch, those services may use cookies or tracking technologies where permitted. Any such systems should be configured in accordance with applicable consent requirements and disclosed through the website’s cookie controls where necessary.
How Information May Be Used
Information collected through the website may be used to operate and secure Wave Watch, respond to messages, correct technical problems, understand website usage, prevent spam or abuse and comply with applicable legal obligations. We do not claim to sell personal information to advertisers.
Data Retention
Information should be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to legitimate operational, security and legal requirements.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on where you live and which privacy law applies, you may have rights concerning access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or portability of certain personal information. You may also be able to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. These rights can be subject to legal exceptions.
Security
Reasonable technical and organisational measures should be used to protect website information. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, so visitors should avoid submitting unnecessary confidential information.
Children
Wave Watch is not intentionally designed to collect personal information from children. If you believe information relating to a child has been submitted improperly, please contact us so the matter can be reviewed.

This Privacy Policy may be updated when website services, legal requirements or data practices change. The latest revision date will be displayed at the top of this page.
