The contact and newsletter forms on novicik.com are created using Elementor Pro, a WordPress website-building plugin.

Information submitted through these forms may be stored in the WordPress database and made available within the protected WordPress administration area through Elementor's form submission functionality.

Depending on the configuration of the form, submitted information may also be sent to me by email.

Access to form submissions is restricted to authorised persons with access to the website administration or the relevant email account.

If you contact me by email, the information contained in your message is processed to respond to your enquiry and, where relevant, discuss or manage a potential or existing business relationship.

The current contact email for novicik design is novicik@gmail.com.

This email address uses Google's Gmail service. Email communications may therefore also be processed through Google's technical infrastructure in accordance with Google's applicable privacy and data-processing terms.

Newsletter subscription information may be retained while the subscription remains active. After you unsubscribe, your information will no longer be used to send newsletter marketing. Limited information may be retained where necessary to document the withdrawal of consent or comply with legal obligations.
