What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It
We collect personal data from visitors, clients, and users for the purposes of operating our business, fulfilling service requests, improving our website, and complying with legal obligations.
We may collect the following categories of data:
Personal data you provide directly
Name, email address, phone number, company information, project details, uploaded files, support requests, account information (if you register), and billing or transactional information for paid services.
Technical and usage data
IP address, browser information, device type, pages visited, time spent on site, referral source, and cookie data. This information helps us maintain site security, analytics, and performance.
Legal basis (GDPR where applicable)
We may process personal data under the following bases:
• Consent (e.g., newsletter signup)
• Contract performance (service work, project communication, invoicing)
• Legitimate interests (security, fraud prevention, analytics)
• Legal compliance (tax, accounting)
Sensitive data
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data (health information, biometric data, etc.). If any is inadvertently transmitted (e.g., through project files), it will be handled securely and only as required to provide the service.
Sources of data
Personal data may be collected through:
• Contact forms
• Project onboarding forms
• Comments
• Cookies
• Embedded content
• Analytics tools
• Third-party integrations (hosting, payments)
WordPress itself does not collect personal data about visitors unless you leave a comment, register, or use specific features.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized hash of your email address may be submitted to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from images.
Contact Forms
If you use a contact form, we may collect:
• Name
• Email address
• Phone number (optional)
• Project details or messages
We retain form submissions for customer service and project communication purposes. We do not use the information submitted through contact forms for marketing without your explicit consent.
Retention periods may vary by project requirements.
Cookies
We use cookies to maintain website functionality, preferences, analytics, and the user experience. Below are the WordPress default cookies:
• If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These cookies last one year.
• If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie checks if your browser accepts cookies; it contains no personal data and is discarded when the browser closes.
• When you log in, several cookies store login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last two days, screen option cookies last a year. If “Remember Me” is selected, login persists two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies.
• When editing or publishing an article, an additional cookie saves the post ID you just edited. It expires in one day.
Additional performance, analytics, or marketing cookies may be set by plugins, hosting tools, or integrations. You can disable cookies in your browser settings.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or articles. Embedded content behaves the same way as visiting the other website directly.
These sites may:
• Collect data
• Use cookies
• Embed third-party tracking
• Monitor your interaction with their content
This includes tracking if you have an account on the external site and are logged in.
Analytics
We may use analytics tools such as Google Analytics or hosting-provider analytics. These tools may collect:
• IP addresses
• Device information
• Interaction data
• Browser data
Users can opt out of Google Analytics tracking via browser extensions or privacy settings.
Analytics providers have their own privacy policies.
WordPress itself does not collect analytics data by default.

We do not sell your personal data.
We may share information with:
• Web hosting providers

• Development contractors or freelancers under NDA

• Registered user profiles (if any) are stored as long as the account remains active. Users may edit or delete their data at any time (except username).
• Contact form submissions: typically retained 6–12 months for customer service unless legally required longer.
