We collect only the personal data necessary to operate and improve our website. This may include: (a) information you voluntarily provide via forms or email (e.g., name, email address, business information); and (b) limited technical data automatically collected through your browser, such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited.
4. Use of Web Analytics
We may use Cloudflare Web Analytics or similar privacy-preserving analytics tools to understand website performance and visitor trends. These services do not use cookies or track individual users across sites. The data collected is aggregated and anonymized.
5. How We Use Personal Data
We process personal data to (a) respond to inquiries, (b) maintain and improve the website, (c) ensure its security and performance, and (d) comply with legal obligations. We will not use your data for marketing without your consent.
