Privacy notice

Last updated: 16 September 2026

This privacy notice explains how personal data is processed when you visit the PKC Energy website, choose whether to enable analytics, or contact us by email.

1. Controller and contact

PKC Energy, Berlin, Germany, is the controller responsible for this website. If you have a question about this notice or the processing of your personal data, contact us at contact@pkcenergy.com.

2. Website hosting and delivery

This website is hosted and delivered through Vercel. When you access the website, Vercel may process technical request data, including your IP address, browser and device information, the requested page, referring page, and request timestamps. This processing is necessary to provide the website, maintain its security, prevent abuse, and diagnose technical issues.

We rely on our legitimate interests in operating a secure and reliable website for this processing. Vercel may process data in countries outside the European Economic Area. More information is available in Vercel's privacy policy.

3. Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland Limited, to understand how visitors use the website and to improve its content and performance. Google Analytics is optional and is loaded only after you select “Accept analytics.” If you select “Essential only,” the Google Analytics library is not loaded.

Analytics data may include viewed pages, interactions, approximate location, browser and device category, and technical identifiers. We configure Google Analytics with IP anonymisation and disable Google Signals, advertising storage, and advertising personalisation. We do not use the website's analytics implementation to serve personalised advertising.

The legal basis for analytics processing is your consent. Google Analytics may set cookies such as _ga and property-specific _ga_* cookies after consent. These cookies may remain for up to two years unless you delete them or withdraw consent earlier. Google may process analytics data outside the European Economic Area using the transfer safeguards described in Google's privacy policy.

4. Your privacy choice

We store your analytics choice in your browser's local storage under the key pkc-consent-v1. This is necessary to remember your selection and does not send the choice to us. It remains on your device until you change your preference or clear your browser storage.

You can withdraw or change your consent at any time by opening the privacy settings below. Withdrawing consent prevents future analytics collection from this browser and removes accessible Google Analytics cookies for this domain. It does not affect processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.

5. Contact by email

This website does not use a contact form. If you contact us by email, we process your email address, message, and any information you provide in order to respond to your enquiry and manage the related communication. The applicable legal basis depends on the context of your request, including steps taken at your request before entering into a contract or our legitimate interest in responding to business enquiries.

6. Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this notice, to comply with legal obligations, or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and the service involved. Data processed by Vercel and Google is also subject to those providers' retention practices.

7. Your rights

Subject to applicable data protection law, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or restriction of your personal data, as well as the right to object to processing and to receive data you provided in a portable format. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future.

To exercise these rights, email contact@pkcenergy.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

8. Updates to this notice

We may update this notice when our website, services, or legal obligations change. The date at the top of this page indicates the latest revision.
