Contact form

Inquiries submitted via the contact form are processed through the service Formspree (Formspree, Inc., USA) and forwarded to my email address. The information you enter (name, email address, message) is processed on Formspree's servers in the USA. Formspree states that it takes appropriate safeguards for transferring data to the USA.
