Privacy Policy
Last updated: 12 November 2026
This policy explains what personal data we collect when you use www.outerfields.net or buy from us, why, and what your rights are.
The data controller is the operator of Outer Fields, as named in our Terms of Service. For any question about your personal data, contact us at info@outerfields.net.
2. What we collect and why
Purchases. Payments are processed by Paddle.com, our reseller and Merchant of Record. Paddle collects your payment and billing details and is responsible for them under Paddle’s Privacy Notice. We receive the information needed to deliver your order: your name, email address, country, the products bought and the order number. Legal basis: performance of a contract.
Download delivery. To show and email your download links, your order number and email address are processed by a small service we run on Cloudflare, and the email is sent through Resend. Download files are hosted on Dropbox. Legal basis: performance of a contract.
Contact form and email. If you write to us, we use your name, email and message to reply. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in answering you.
Newsletter. If you subscribe, we use your email address only to send occasional news about releases. You can unsubscribe at any time. Legal basis: consent.
Website hosting. Our hosting provider (Aruba S.p.A.) keeps standard server logs, such as IP address, browser type and pages requested, for security and technical operation. Legal basis: legitimate interest.
3. Embedded content and external services
Some pages load content from other services, which may receive your IP address and set their own cookies:
- Paddle (checkout, when you click Buy now)
- YouTube (privacy-enhanced mode) and Vimeo videos, loaded only when you press play
- SoundCloud audio players on product pages and some sound map locations
- Map images from Esri and the Leaflet map library on the Sound Maps page
- Google Fonts (the typeface used on this site)
- The Data Fields web apps, which load public data from services such as Veðurstofa Íslands, Open-Meteo, NOAA and USGS. If an app asks for your location, it is used only in your browser and not stored by us.
4. Who we share data with
We do not sell your data or use it for advertising. We share it only with the service providers named above, as needed to run the website and deliver your orders. Some of them are located outside the EEA (for example in the United Kingdom or the United States); in those cases the transfer is covered by an adequacy decision or the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.
5. How long we keep it
Order information is kept as long as required by accounting and tax law. Messages are kept as long as needed to handle your request. Newsletter data is kept until you unsubscribe.
6. Your rights
You have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time. To use these rights, email info@outerfields.net. You can also lodge a complaint with the Icelandic Data Protection Authority, Persónuvernd, or with the authority in your own country.
