Privacy Policy
This policy explains what personal data is processed when you visit blacksunaudio.com or contact me, why, and what your rights are. The short version: no tracking, no advertising, and nothing is shared with anyone who doesn't need it.
Last updated: 7 November 2026
Who is responsible
Black Sun Audio, run by Quentin Høegh Nicollet, Ringsø (near Pindstrup), Djursland, Denmark, is the data controller for this website. For any question about your data, write to .
What this site does not do
- No analytics or visitor statistics
- No advertising, tracking pixels or profiling
- The fonts are served from this site itself – not from Google or another font service
Visiting the website
When you visit the site, the hosting provider's servers necessarily receive technical data such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you request, and may keep it briefly in server logs to deliver the site and keep it secure. This is based on my legitimate interest in running a working, secure website (GDPR article 6(1)(f)).
Contact form
If you use the contact form, the information you enter – name, email address, band or project, the service you're interested in and your message – is sent to my inbox through Web3Forms, a form-delivery service that acts as a processor on my behalf. I use it only to answer you and, if we work together, to plan the project and prepare an offer (GDPR article 6(1)(b) and (f)).
To keep spam out, the form uses hCaptcha, provided by Intuition Machines, Inc. hCaptcha only loads when you start filling in the form. It analyses technical data about your device and browser and your IP address to tell humans from bots, and may set cookies for that purpose. The legal basis is my legitimate interest in protecting the form against abuse (GDPR article 6(1)(f)). hCaptcha may process data outside the EU.
Email, Messenger, Instagram and Facebook
If you contact me by email, Messenger, Instagram or Facebook, I receive the information you send and use it to answer you. Messenger, Instagram and Facebook are run by Meta, which processes your data under its own privacy policy. The links on this site are plain links: nothing is loaded from Meta until you click one.
Apple Music players and album covers
The References page can show Apple Music players. They are blocked until you allow them in the cookie banner. When they load, Apple may set cookies and receive data about your visit, such as your IP address and device information, and may process it outside the EU – see Apple's privacy policy. The legal basis is your consent (GDPR article 6(1)(a)), which you can withdraw at any time.
Album covers of releases that are on Apple Music are shown directly from Apple's image servers, which means your browser requests those images from Apple and Apple receives your IP address. No cookies are set by these images.
Cookies and your consent
This site itself sets no cookies. Your choice in the cookie banner is saved in your browser's local storage, so the banner doesn't ask again on every page – this is strictly necessary and contains nothing but your choice. Third-party cookies can only be set by the Apple Music players (after you allow them) and by hCaptcha (when you use the contact form). You can change your choice at any time with Cookie settings at the bottom of every page.
How long data is kept
Messages are kept as long as needed to handle your request and any project that follows. If you become a client, invoices and other accounting records are kept for five years, as required by the Danish Bookkeeping Act (bogføringsloven). After that, data is deleted.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access the data I hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to its processing, to receive it in a portable format, and to withdraw any consent you have given. Just write to .
You can also complain to the Danish Data Protection Agency, Datatilsynet.
Changes
If the site changes in a way that affects your data – for example a new embedded service – this policy will be updated, and the date at the top will change.
