Privacy policy
City in Translation founder Canan Marasligil finds that transparency is important in the way we use the web, and EU's GDPR is a good opportunity to look at how content is presented and what data this website collect from its visitors.
To comply with GDPR, city in translation has now disabled Analytics Cookies and Activity Log. And we have added a cookie banner to my site.
Cookies are files stored in your browser and are used by most websites to help personalise your web experience. By continuing to use the City in Translation website without changing the settings, you are agreeing to our use of cookies.
By default, Squarespace - where this website is hosted - obtains information about our visitors for Squarespace Analytics by using Analytics Cookies. In order to comply with legal requirements, City in Translation has:
- Disabled Activity Log so we don’t collect or see visitors’ IP addresses or other personal data
- Disabled Squarespace Analytics cookies so we don’t place Squarespace Analytics cookies on visitors’ browsers
- Displayed a customizable cookie banner so visitors can opt into our use of cookies
Does Squarespace need to store data in the EU?
As with existing law, the GDPR requires that certain safeguards be put in place when transferring personal data outside the EU. Squarespace has self-certified to the EU-US and Swiss-US Privacy Shield, which allows them to lawfully transfer EU and Swiss personal data to the US, including to our US-based data centers. You can read more about Squarespace’s Privacy Shield certifications here.
