• ·request information or a quotation;
• ·contact us by email;
• ·communicate with us regarding a potential or existing project;
• ·provide information or documents in connection with our services; or

Certain technical information may also be collected automatically as part of the normal operation and security of the website and its underlying infrastructure.

We may use personal information to:

We do not sell your personal information.

Where the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or other applicable European data protection legislation applies, we process personal information only where there is an appropriate legal basis.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include:

• ·taking steps at your request before entering into a contract;
• ·performing a contract with you;
• ·complying with a legal obligation;
• ·pursuing our legitimate interests, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms; or
• ·your consent, where consent is required.

When you submit a Quick Inquiry or Start a Project request, the information you provide may be stored so that we can review your request, contact you and maintain an appropriate record of the inquiry.

Submitting an inquiry does not create a contractual relationship between you and We Make Better Sites.

After receiving an inquiry, we may contact you using the contact information you provided.

Communications relating to an inquiry or project may be retained where reasonably necessary for business, administrative, contractual or legal purposes.

Where the website permits you to upload files or documents, you should only provide material reasonably necessary for your inquiry or project.

Please avoid submitting unnecessary sensitive personal information.

Files supplied in connection with an inquiry or project may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to evaluate or provide the requested services, maintain appropriate business records, or comply with legal obligations.

The website may use cookies or similar technologies where necessary for functionality, security, session management or other legitimate technical purposes.

Where non-essential cookies or technologies requiring consent are introduced, appropriate information and consent mechanisms will be provided where required by applicable law.

We may use technical information about website usage to understand performance, diagnose problems, maintain security and improve the website.

Where analytics services are used, they will be handled in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection requirements.

We do not use this Privacy Policy to claim that a particular analytics or advertising platform is used unless such a service is actually implemented on the website.

We may use trusted third-party service providers where reasonably necessary to operate our website, communications, infrastructure or services.

These providers may process limited personal information on our behalf where required to provide their services.

We seek to use service providers in a manner consistent with applicable data protection obligations.

Our website and digital systems may rely on third-party hosting, infrastructure, software, email or development services.

Information may therefore be processed or stored using infrastructure operated by third-party providers.

We take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is handled appropriately when using such providers.

If you contact us or submit an inquiry, we may communicate with you by email using the address you provide.

Emails and related correspondence may be retained as part of our business records.

Please remember that no method of electronic communication can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

We do not sell or rent personal information.

We may disclose information where reasonably necessary:

• ·to service providers acting on our behalf;
• ·to professional advisers where appropriate;
• ·to comply with a legal obligation, court order or lawful request;
• ·to protect our legal rights, systems, clients or users;
• ·in connection with a business restructuring or transfer, where legally permitted; or
• ·where you have authorised the disclosure.

Some service providers or technical infrastructure may process information outside Cyprus or the European Economic Area.

Where personal information is transferred internationally and applicable law requires safeguards, we will seek to rely on an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including business, contractual, administrative, security and legal purposes.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and our relationship with you.

Information that is no longer reasonably required may be deleted, anonymised or otherwise securely disposed of, subject to applicable legal obligations.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss or misuse.

However, no website, internet transmission, electronic storage system or communication method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Where the GDPR applies, you may have rights including the right to:

• ·request access to personal information we hold about you;
• ·request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
• ·request deletion of personal information in certain circumstances;
• ·request restriction of processing in certain circumstances;
• ·object to certain processing;
• ·receive certain personal information in a portable format where applicable;
• ·withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
• ·lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

These rights are subject to the conditions and exceptions provided by applicable law.

If you wish to exercise an applicable data protection right, you may contact us at:

info@wemakebettersites.com

We may need to verify your identity before acting on certain requests.

Where we rely on your consent to process personal information, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

Where applicable, you may have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or to request restriction of processing in circumstances provided by law.

Where applicable under the GDPR, you may request personal information you provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and may have the right to transmit that information to another controller.

If you believe that your personal information has been processed in violation of applicable data protection law, you may contact us so that we can address your concerns.

You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection in Cyprus or another competent supervisory authority.

Our website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security or content of third-party websites. You should review the privacy information provided by those third parties before providing personal information to them.

Our services are intended for businesses, organisations, professionals and other persons seeking website or digital development services.

The website is not specifically directed at children, and we do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children through our inquiry forms.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our website, services, business practices or legal obligations.

The current version will be published on this page together with its latest update date.
