Data collected and how it is collected

When you submit the contact or sourcing request forms, we process the information you provide, including name, company, business email address, telephone number (optional), country, enquiry type, and your message or product/project description.

In addition, Base44 as the hosting and application platform may process technical connection data required to deliver and secure the service.

Purpose of processing

The collected data is processed exclusively to handle and respond to business enquiries and sourcing requests.

For other general business enquiries, processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest is to receive, manage and respond to business communications.
