Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 17, 2026

This policy explains how smdata.dev collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit our website or request a quote.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, such as when you:

  • Submit our quote request form (name, email, company name, company website, services of interest, and message)
  • Contact us by email or through the WhatsApp button on smdata.dev
  • Browse smdata.dev (technical data such as browser type, pages visited, and approximate usage statistics when you accept analytics cookies)

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to quote requests and consultation inquiries
  • Communicate with you about our IT services (web applications, website management, data processing, and workflow automation)
  • Improve smdata.dev and understand how visitors use the site (only if you accept analytics cookies)
  • Keep the website secure and comply with legal obligations

3. Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data only in these cases:

  • When required by law or a valid legal request
  • To protect the rights and safety of smdata.dev and our users
  • With service providers that help us operate the website (for example, hosting on Railway, email delivery, and Google Analytics if you consent)
  • When you choose to contact us via WhatsApp (Meta/WhatsApp privacy terms apply to that conversation)

4. Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

5. Cookies and Tracking on smdata.dev

smdata.dev uses cookies and browser storage to run the site securely, remember your cookie choice, and — only with your permission — measure traffic with Google Analytics.

Essential cookies

These are required for the website to function and cannot be disabled through our cookie banner:

  • csrftoken — protects our quote request form against cross-site request forgery (Django security cookie)
  • sessionid — maintains a secure session when needed by Django (for example, language or form security)

Preference storage

  • smdata_cookie_consent — stores whether you accepted or declined analytics cookies (saved in your browser local storage on smdata.dev)

Analytics cookies (optional)

Loaded only if you click Accept analytics in our cookie banner:

  • Google Analytics (cookies such as _ga and _gid) — helps us understand how visitors use smdata.dev (for example, pages viewed and general traffic). Provider: Google. Measurement ID: G-BW1EP31P2H. IP anonymization is enabled.

Managing your cookie choice

When you first visit smdata.dev, you can choose Essential only (no analytics) or Accept analytics. You can change your choice at any time:

  • Open cookie preferences on smdata.dev
  • Clear site data or cookies for smdata.dev in your browser settings
  • Use your browser settings to block third-party or all cookies

6. Data Retention

Quote request submissions are stored in our database so we can respond to you. We keep this information only as long as needed for business and legal purposes, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access your personal information
  • Correct inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Withdraw consent for analytics cookies at any time

8. Third-Party Links

smdata.dev may link to third-party services such as WhatsApp. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those external services.

9. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 14. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 14.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page.
