Privacy Policy

Last updated: 15 June 2026

FlincByte ("we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and your rights — including if you visit from the EU, UK, or other regions with data protection laws.

1. Information We Collect

Contact & inquiry data: name, email, subject, and message when you use our contact form.
Newsletter data: email address and consent record when you subscribe.
Usage data: IP address, browser type, pages visited, and referral source via analytics cookies (only after consent).
Technical data: server logs used for security monitoring and rate limiting.

2. How We Use Your Information

To respond to project inquiries and support requests.
To send newsletters you have explicitly opted into (typically once per month).
To improve website performance, security, and user experience.
To detect spam, abuse, and fraudulent submissions.

3. Third-Party Processors

We use trusted providers to operate our website. These may process data on our behalf:

Google Analytics & Google Tag Manager (usage analytics)
Microsoft Clarity (session analytics)
Cloudflare Turnstile (spam protection on forms)
MongoDB Atlas (data storage for form submissions)
Vercel (hosting and content delivery)

Where data is transferred outside your country (including to India and the United States), we rely on appropriate safeguards such as processor agreements and industry-standard security controls.

4. Data Retention

Contact form submissions: up to 24 months, unless longer retention is required for an active client relationship.
Newsletter subscriptions: until you unsubscribe or request deletion.
Analytics data: per the retention settings of each analytics provider (typically 14–26 months).
Server security logs: up to 90 days.

5. Cookies

We use essential cookies for site functionality. Non-essential analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity) are loaded only after you accept cookies via our consent banner. You can also disable cookies in your browser settings.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, email contact@flincbyte.com.

7. Newsletter & Unsubscribe

We only send marketing emails with your explicit consent. Every email includes an unsubscribe link. You can also request removal by contacting us at contact@flincbyte.com.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy periodically. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
