Who to contact

Ahmad Salimkhani, Copenhagen, Denmark, is responsible for the information collected through this personal professional website. For privacy questions or requests, email ahmad@salimkhani.com.

Messages and enquiries

The contact form asks for your name, email, subject and message. FormSubmit receives and forwards these details to my email inbox. Use email directly if you prefer not to use FormSubmit. Please do not send passwords, health information or other sensitive personal information.

I use your details to respond and discuss your request. For enquiries about services you wish to engage, the basis is taking steps at your request before a contract (GDPR Article 6(1)(b)). For other professional correspondence, the basis is my legitimate interest in responding to relevant enquiries (Article 6(1)(f)). Sending a message does not subscribe you to marketing.

Booking a meeting

The calendar stays unloaded until you select “Load booking calendar”. Calendly then receives connection information, including your IP address and browser information, and processes the booking details you enter. Loading the requested calendar is separate from consenting to Google Ads measurement. Manage Calendly’s optional cookies using its own cookie settings, or close the calendar using the button above it.

I use your booking information to arrange and attend the meeting and respond to your request. The legal bases for professional enquiries are described above. You may instead arrange a time by email.

Calendly privacy notice and international processing information

Cookies and local storage

Google advertising measurement is optional and blocked until you accept it. Rejection does not prevent browsing, messaging or booking. Personalized advertising and Google Analytics are not enabled by this site’s tag configuration.

Google may receive device/browser information, IP address, page information and advertising identifiers when the tag is enabled. The site does not send contact-form fields or booking details as advertising events. Google can process data internationally. See how Google uses data from partner sites and Google’s cookie information.

Use “Advertising cookie settings” in the footer to withdraw permission. Withdrawal stops future measurement; it does not undo previous processing. You can also delete cookies and site storage in your browser. The calendar uses separate Calendly cookie controls.

Website delivery and external links

The hosting and security services delivering this website receive technical connection data such as IP addresses and request information to serve pages and protect the service. External links open services governed by their own privacy notices. Social profile links do not load social tracking widgets on this site.

Retention and your rights

Enquiry and booking information is needed while handling the request and any resulting professional relationship. Any further retention must be justified by applicable recordkeeping requirements or the need to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. Contact me to ask about your records or request deletion.

Depending on the circumstances, you can request access, correction, deletion, restriction and portability of your data, and object to processing based on legitimate interests. Where processing relies on consent, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting earlier lawful processing. You can complain to Datatilsynet, Denmark’s data protection authority.
