Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before using our website or services. By using our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy.
Personal information refers to information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person, excluding anonymized information. We collect only the minimum information necessary to operate our website and respond to your inquiries.
(1) Website Browsing Data
When you browse our website, we automatically collect technical information necessary for website operation and security, including:
(2) Contact Form Submissions
When you submit an inquiry or quotation request through our contact form, we collect the information you voluntarily provide, including:
We use this information solely to respond to your inquiries, provide product quotations, and communicate with you about potential business transactions. We do not create persistent user accounts; after your inquiry is processed, relevant data is retained for the period specified in Section 3 and then deleted or anonymized.
(3) Information from Third Parties
If we obtain your information from a third party (e.g., a business partner or referral), we will require that third party to confirm the lawful source of the information and that you have authorized its sharing. We will only process such information within the scope of the original authorization or after obtaining your separate consent.
We process your personal information for the following purposes:
Depending on your jurisdiction, we may rely on the following lawful bases:
We may engage third-party service providers to assist with website hosting, email delivery, customer relationship management, and data analytics. These providers process your information only on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions. We require them to maintain appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
We will not share your personal information with any third party except:
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale involving your personal information, we will notify you and require the successor entity to continue to be bound by this Privacy Policy.
We will not disclose your personal information except with your consent or when required by valid legal process. When responding to legal requests, we require the requesting party to present valid legal documents and take appropriate security measures.
Our website is hosted by third-party service providers. Your personal information may be stored on servers located in the country/region where our hosting provider operates, which may be outside your country of residence. We take appropriate contractual and technical measures to ensure that your information receives an adequate level of protection regardless of where it is stored.
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Specific retention periods include:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Website access logs and device data | 12 months | Security and service optimization |
| Contact form submissions | 3 years after inquiry closure | Dispute resolution and compliance |
| Order and contract correspondence | 5 years after contract completion | Legal and tax requirements |
| Marketing consent records | 3 years after unsubscribe | Compliance evidence |
| Cookie consent records | 3 years | Compliance evidence |
After the retention period expires, we will delete or anonymize your personal information unless further retention is required by law.
We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect it against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include encrypted data transmission (HTTPS/TLS), access controls, and regular security assessments of our service providers.
In the event of a personal data security incident, we will notify you and the relevant supervisory authorities as required by applicable law, including the nature of the incident, the data affected, and the measures we have taken or plan to take.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you and, where applicable, to receive it in a structured, machine-readable format for transfer to another controller.
You have the right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information about you.
You may request deletion of your personal information when: it is no longer necessary for the original purposes; you withdraw consent; we unlawfully processed it; or deletion is required by law. We may deny deletion where retention is necessary for legal obligations, contract fulfillment, or the establishment/exercise/defense of legal claims.
In certain circumstances (e.g., while you contest the accuracy of data), you may request that we restrict processing to storage only.
You may object to processing based on our legitimate interests. We will cease processing unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds or need the data for legal claims. For direct marketing, you may object at any time without giving reasons.
Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [your-email@example.com]. We may require you to verify your identity before responding. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law (generally within 30 days). We do not charge a fee for reasonable requests, but we may charge for excessive or repetitive requests.
