5. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share your personal data only in the following limited circumstances:

• Service Providers: We share your Identity and Contact Data (name, email, message content) with **Resend** (our email service provider) solely for the purpose of delivering the email initiated by you through our contact form. We may also implicitly share Technical Data with our website hosting provider (e.g., Vercel) as part of operating the website.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information where we are legally required to do so in order to comply with applicable law, governmental requests, a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process.
• Business Transfers: We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.
• With Your Consent: We may disclose your personal data for any other purpose with your explicit consent.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website may use cookies that are essential for its basic operation (e.g., provided by the Next.js framework or our hosting platform). We do not currently implement non-essential cookies for tracking, analytics, or advertising purposes by default. You can typically set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. However, if you disable or refuse essential cookies, some parts of this website may become inaccessible or not function properly.

7. Data Security

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, please also remember that we cannot guarantee that the internet itself is 100% secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, transmission of personal information to and from our Service is at your own risk. You should only access the Service within a secure environment.

8. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements.

10. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for children under the age of 18, and we do not knowingly collect data relating to children. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a child under the relevant age without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.

11. International Transfers

Our website is hosted on infrastructure that may be located globally. Furthermore, we utilize third-party service providers, such as Resend for email delivery, whose servers may be located outside of your home country (e.g., in the United States). Therefore, your information, including personal data (name, email address, message content submitted via the contact form, and technical data), may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ.

We rely on the security measures and data protection practices of these third-party service providers regarding any international data transfers. By using our Service, you consent to such transfers, provided that appropriate safeguards are maintained by these providers (such as adherence to standard contractual clauses or other recognized transfer mechanisms where applicable).

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated “Effective Date“ and the updated version will be effective as soon as it is accessible. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy frequently to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
