- Non-Personal Information: Automatically collected data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring/exit pages. This helps us understand how visitors interact with the Website.
- Cookies and Similar Technologies: See Section 2 for details.
We do not collect sensitive personal information (e.g., racial or ethnic origin, health data) unless voluntarily provided and necessary for our services.
2. Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device to enhance functionality and analyze usage. We use cookies and similar technologies (e.g., web beacons, pixels) for the following purposes:
- Essential Cookies: Necessary for the Website to function properly, such as maintaining your session during form submissions (e.g., appointment booking). These do not require consent.
- Analytics Cookies: To track and analyze Website traffic and user behavior (e.g., via tools like Google Analytics, if integrated). This helps us improve content and user experience.
- Functional Cookies: To remember your preferences, such as language settings or form auto-fills.
- Marketing Cookies: If applicable, to deliver personalized content or ads based on your interests. (Note: Based on current Website content, marketing cookies are not actively used but may be added in the future.)
You can control cookies through your browser settings (e.g., block or delete them). However, disabling essential cookies may affect Website functionality. For more information, visit AllAboutCookies.org. We do not currently use a cookie consent banner, but one may be implemented to comply with regulations like the EU ePrivacy Directive if required.
We do not use cookies to track you across other sites without your consent.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for:
- Responding to your inquiries, booking appointments, providing consultations, and delivering quotations.
- Improving our services, Website content, and user experience.
- Communicating with you about our products, promotions, or updates (with your consent where required).
- Analyzing trends and Website performance.

We process your data based on legitimate interests (e.g., business operations), consent (e.g., for marketing), or contractual necessity (e.g., fulfilling a consultation request).
4. Sharing Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with:

All sharing is limited to what is necessary and protected by appropriate safeguards.
5. Data Security
We implement reasonable security measures, including encryption, access controls, and regular audits, to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no online transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined (e.g., up to 2 years for inquiry records) or as required by law. Non-personal data may be retained indefinitely for analytics.
