Privacy policy
Short version: this website sets no tracking cookies, runs no analytics and shows no advertising. We process personal data only when you contact us — and only to answer you.

This privacy policy covers the processing of personal data under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP / nDSG).
2. Hosting and server log files
This website is hosted by Vercel Inc., 340 S Lemon Ave #4133, Walnut, CA 91789, USA. When you visit the site, the hosting provider automatically processes technical data (IP address, date and time of access, requested page, browser type) in server log files to deliver the website securely and reliably.

3. Cookies and tracking
This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics or tracking tools. Fonts and all other resources are served from our own hosting; no third-party content delivery networks are contacted when you view this site.
4. Contact form and email
If you contact us by email or via the contact form, we process the details you provide (name, company, email address, message content) solely to handle your enquiry and any resulting business relationship. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures) and our legitimate interest in answering enquiries. Form submissions are transmitted via the form service configured by us and forwarded to our email address. We retain correspondence only as long as needed for the purpose or required by statutory retention obligations.
5. Disclosure of data
We do not sell personal data. Data is disclosed only where necessary to handle your enquiry (for example, forwarding a sourcing requirement to a supplier — normally without personal data beyond your company details), or where we are legally obliged to do so.
6. Your rights
You have the right to information about, rectification and erasure of your personal data, the right to restriction of processing, the right to data portability, and the right to object to processing based on legitimate interest. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority — in Switzerland the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), in Germany the data protection authority of your federal state.
To exercise your rights, contact sankaran458@gmail.com.

We may update this privacy policy to reflect legal or operational changes. The version published here is the current one.
