5. Google Analytics 4
The website uses Google Analytics 4 to measure traffic and analyse how the site is used. Analytics measurement starts only after the data subject’s prior consent. Until consent is given, BidCraft keeps Google Analytics measurement disabled.
During measurement, Google Analytics may process page views and event data, device and browser characteristics, approximate geographic data and technical identifiers related to the session. For users from the European Union, Google may use the IP address to determine geographic data and then discards it before logging; according to Google, Google Analytics does not log or store the IP address.
- Purpose
- statistical measurement of website traffic, use and performance, and improving content and user experience
- Legal basis
- consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR
- Provider / processor
- Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland
- GA4 retention
- user-level and event-level data retention period is 14 months
- Data sharing with Google products
- BidCraft keeps the Google Analytics “Google products & services” data-sharing setting turned off
Analytics cookies — After consent is given, Google Analytics may place first-party analytics cookies. According to Google’s documentation, the default expiry of the _ga and _ga_<id> cookies is 2 years. They are used to distinguish visitors and sessions for statistics.
Managing consent — On the first visit, the visitor may decide whether to allow analytics measurement. If consent is refused, analytics measurement does not start. To remember the choice, the website may use only the technical storage needed to record the consent setting. Consent may be withdrawn or changed at any time later; withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
International transfers — Google operates a global infrastructure, so Google Analytics data may in some cases be processed outside the European Economic Area. For transfers to the United States to Google LLC, the adequacy decision under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework may apply if the recipient is an active participant. Google LLC is currently listed among Data Privacy Framework participants. Where the adequacy decision does not apply to a transfer, Google may also rely on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses as an appropriate safeguard.
Further information on safeguards for international transfers is available in Google’s data-transfer notices and in the EU–US Data Privacy Framework register.

7. Automated decision-making and profiling
In the current operation of bidcraft.hu, no automated decision-making that produces legal effects concerning the data subject or similarly significantly affects them takes place. The website does not create individual profiles with legal effects from analytics data.
8. Rights of the data subject
Under the GDPR, the data subject may request access to personal data concerning them, and rectification, erasure or restriction of processing. Where applicable, they also have the right to data portability. Where processing is based on legitimate interest, the data subject may object on grounds relating to their particular situation.
Consent given for processing based on consent may be withdrawn at any time. Requests to exercise these rights may be sent to bidcraft@openvillage.io. The controller handles the request without undue delay and, as a rule, within one month of receipt.
9. Remedies
If the data subject considers that the processing of their personal data infringes data-protection law, they may lodge a complaint with the Hungarian National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (NAIH) or bring proceedings before a court.
