Privacy Policy

We collect information you voluntarily provide when you interact with us. This may include:

• Contact details — your name and email address when you submit our contact form or reach out directly.
• Communication content — messages, inquiries, or project briefs you send to us.
• Technical data — browser type, IP address, and pages visited, collected automatically through standard web analytics.
• Employment information — CVs or application details if you apply for a position via our Careers page.

We do not collect sensitive personal data such as payment information, government IDs, or biometric data.

We use the information we collect solely to operate and improve our services. Specifically:

• To respond to inquiries — when you contact us, we use your details to reply and follow up.
• To process applications — if you apply for a role, your information is used to evaluate your candidacy.
• To improve our website — anonymised analytics help us understand how visitors use the site so we can make it better.
• To comply with legal obligations — where required by law, we may process or retain certain data.

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any automated decision-making.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party. We may share data only in these limited circumstances:

• Service providers — trusted tools we use to run our operations (e.g. email delivery, analytics), who are contractually bound to protect your data.
• Legal requirements — if required by law, court order, or government authority.
• Business transfers — in the unlikely event of a merger or acquisition, your data may be transferred as part of that process, with appropriate notice provided.

Our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience. These include:

• Essential cookies — necessary for the website to function correctly (e.g. theme preference).
• Analytics cookies — help us understand traffic patterns and improve the site. These are anonymised.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect site functionality such as theme persistence.

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. While we strive to protect your data using industry-standard practices, we cannot guarantee absolute security. We encourage users to exercise care when sharing personal information online.

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose it was collected for, or as required by applicable law.

Contact form submissions are typically retained for up to 12 months. Job applications are held for the duration of the recruitment process and deleted thereafter unless you give consent for us to retain them longer.

You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us at aqinodelabs@gmail.com.

You have the right to:

• Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Correction — request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Deletion — ask us to delete your personal data where there is no legitimate reason for us to continue processing it.
• Restriction — ask us to limit how we process your data in certain circumstances.
• Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format where applicable.
• Objection — object to certain types of processing, including direct marketing.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at aqinodelabs@gmail.com.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our services evolve or legal requirements change. When we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of our website after changes are posted constitutes your acknowledgement of the updated policy.
