By accessing and using this Website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy, and that you agree to the practices described herein.
Collection of Personal Data
We collect personal information from you only when you voluntarily submit it through our Website. This typically occurs when you fill out a contact form to request information, schedule a call, or inquire about our services. The personal data we collect may include your full name, email address, and phone number.
This information is collected solely for the purpose of communicating with you in response to your request. We do not collect personal data from you unless you provide it willingly, and we do not collect any sensitive categories of personal data such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data, or similar.
Use of Personal Data
The personal data you provide is used exclusively to respond to your inquiries, to contact you when requested, and to facilitate any initial consultation or discovery calls you schedule through our forms. We may also use your information to follow up with you regarding the services we provide, or to send relevant information if it pertains to your original request.
We do not use your personal data for marketing purposes unless you have explicitly given your consent. We will not sell, rent, lease, or otherwise distribute your personal information to any third party for marketing or advertising purposes.
Legal Basis for Processing
Our processing of your personal data is based on your consent, which is obtained at the time you submit your information through our Website. In some cases, processing may also be justified by our legitimate interest in responding to user inquiries and managing business communications, provided such interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at the email address provided below.
Disclosure to Third Parties
We may disclose your personal data to third-party service providers who assist us in operating our Website and delivering our services. These third parties include our web hosting provider (Namecheap), our email communication provider (Brevo, formerly Sendinblue), and analytics services that help us understand Website traffic and performance.
These third-party service providers are bound by contractual obligations to keep your personal information confidential and to use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them. We ensure that appropriate data protection agreements are in place with all our service providers.
We do not sell or share your data with any other external parties, and we will never disclose your personal data unless required to do so by law or to protect our legal rights.
Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy any legal, regulatory, or contractual obligations. If you request that we delete your personal information, we will comply promptly, unless we are legally required to retain it for a longer period.
Your Rights Under GDPR
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or any jurisdiction with similar data protection regulations, you have certain rights with respect to your personal data. These rights include the right to access your data, the right to request correction or deletion of your data, the right to object to or restrict processing, and the right to data portability.
You also have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal. If you believe that your data has been processed unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority in your country.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email address provided in the “Contact” section below.
Security of Your Data
We take the security of your personal data seriously and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect it from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of data transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information.
If we become aware of any data breach that may compromise your personal data, we will take appropriate steps to notify you and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
At this time, our Website does not actively use cookies, tracking pixels, or any automated data collection technologies for marketing or behavioral analysis. If we implement such technologies in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly, and appropriate cookie banners and opt-in mechanisms will be deployed to ensure compliance with privacy regulations.
International Transfers
Your personal data may be stored and processed in countries outside of your residence, including jurisdictions that may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country. However, we will ensure that any such transfers are carried out in accordance with applicable laws and that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your data.
