Information we collect

We collect information you provide directly to us and information collected automatically when you use our website. When you contact us through forms, email, or phone, we collect identifiers such as your name, email address, phone number, organization, and any project details you provide. We may retain minimal records of correspondence to respond to inquiries, send confirmations, and manage proposals. Automatically collected data includes technical information such as IP addresses, browser type, device identifiers, operating system, pages visited, and referral sources. We use standard technologies like cookies and similar tracking technologies to enable core site functionality, remember preferences, and for analytics. We do not sell personal data. For more details on cookies and tracking, see the Cookies section below. We process only the information necessary to accomplish the stated purposes and avoid collecting unnecessary sensitive data. If you share sensitive personal information inadvertently, contact us immediately so we can delete it where required.

How we use information

We use personal data for limited and legitimate purposes: to respond to inquiries, evaluate proposal requests, deliver contracted services, and improve our website and publications. Contact information is used to schedule calls, provide quotes, and send service-related communications. Technical and usage data support site security, performance optimization, and analytics that inform product and content improvements. Where required by law (for example under GDPR), we rely on lawful bases such as consent, contract performance, legitimate interests, or legal obligations for processing. We do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects about individuals. When analytics or personalization is based on consentable cookies, we respect your preferences and provide controls via the cookie modal. We retain data for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes described and to meet legal, tax, or accounting requirements. Retention timeframes depend on the record type and the applicable regulation; typical retention ranges are from several months for inquiry records to up to seven years for records related to financial or contractual obligations where required by law.

Sharing, disclosure, and third parties

We do not sell personal data. We may share information with trusted service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as hosting, analytics, email delivery, and professional advisors; these providers only process data under our instructions and are subject to confidentiality obligations. In limited circumstances we may disclose data to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests by public authorities, protect the rights and safety of others, or to enforce our agreements. If a change in control or asset sale occurs, personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction, and we will require the recipient to honor this Privacy Policy. When data is transferred outside your jurisdiction, we employ appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or other lawful transfer mechanisms to provide an adequate level of protection. We review third-party relationships periodically to ensure contractual and technical controls remain in place and aligned with our privacy commitments.

Cookies and tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate core site features and to collect analytics about site use. Cookies fall into categories: strictly necessary cookies required for site operation, preference cookies to remember choices, and analytics cookies used to understand how the site is used. You can accept or reject non-essential cookies using the cookie modal in the bottom-right corner of our pages. If you reject analytics cookies, basic functionality of the site remains available but our ability to measure usage and improve content will be limited. Our analytics providers may set cookies and collect anonymized usage data under their privacy terms; we limit data sharing to aggregate reports and do not allow advertising profiling or sale of personal data. To learn about the cookies in active use, contact us and we will provide current details and cookie lifetimes.

Security, retention, and data subject rights

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include access controls, encryption of backups, and routine security reviews. No system is completely secure; if a security incident affects your personal data we will notify you and regulators as required by applicable law. You may request access to the information we hold about you, ask for inaccuracies to be corrected, request deletion where applicable, object to processing, or request data portability where supported by law. Residents of certain jurisdictions have additional rights—for example, California residents may request categories of data collected and opt-out of certain disclosures; EU residents have rights under the GDPR. To exercise privacy rights, contact us using the details below and provide sufficient information to verify your identity. We will respond within the timelines required by applicable law and will not charge unreasonable fees for such requests.

Children and policy updates

Our services are intended for organizations and professionals; we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe we have collected information about a minor, contact us and we will take steps to remove that information as required by law. We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, regulatory requirements, or service offerings. Material changes will be posted with an updated effective date. For non-material updates we may update the policy without prominent notice, but we encourage visitors to review this page periodically. Continued use of the site after updates implies acceptance of the revised terms where permitted by law.
