This website

• No cookies, no tracking. needit.be sets no cookies and uses no analytics or advertising tools. Fonts and images are served by needit.be itself, not by outside services.
• Hosting. The site runs on Vercel Inc. (United States). Like any web server, Vercel records technical data when you visit, such as your IP address, browser and the time. This is needed to keep the site secure and working (legitimate interest). The transfer to the US uses the safeguards the GDPR requires, such as the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses.
• Contact form. The form on the site sends nothing itself. It opens your own email program with your message filled in. needit only receives it once you send that email.
• LinkedIn. If you follow the link to LinkedIn, LinkedIn’s own rules apply there.
