Privacy Policy | Chamu Pages

1. Introduction

Welcome to Chamu Pages. I am Chamu, the developer behind this website. I respect your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal data.

This Privacy Policy explains what information I collect, why I collect it, and how I handle it when you visit this website. I believe in data minimalism — I only collect what is necessary to do my work.

For data protection purposes, I act as the “Data Controller” of your personal data. Personal Data refers to info identifying you (e.g., name/email).

2. The Data I Collect

Personal Information

I only collect information that you voluntarily provide through my contact form or email. This may include:

Your name
Your email address
Your project details or message content

I do not collect sensitive personal data.

Technical Data

When you visit this website, certain technical information may be automatically processed by my hosting provider (Cloudflare), such as:

IP address
Browser type
Device information
Basic request logs

This information is used solely for security purposes (such as DDoS protection and preventing malicious activity). I do not use this data to personally track you.

My services are not for children under 16; I don't knowingly collect their data.

3. Legal Basis for Processing

I process your data based on:

Your consent (when you submit the contact form or email), or
To fulfill our contract (project delivery).

If you are located in the European Union (EU), this also aligns with my legitimate interest in responding to business inquiries and providing requested services.

4. How I Use Your Data

I use your information solely to:

Respond to your inquiries and provide quotes
Deliver requested web development services
Send invoices or service agreements
Comply with legal or tax obligations

I do not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal data for marketing purposes. I do not operate mailing lists or advertising campaigns.

5. Third-Party Services

To operate this website efficiently, I use trusted third-party services:

Cloudflare (Hosting & Analytics): My site is hosted on Cloudflare's global edge network. I use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which provides anonymized performance insights. This tool is privacy-first: it does not use cookies and does not track your IP for profiling.
Web3Forms (Contact Forms): Simple contact messages are securely processed by Web3Forms.
Tally.so (Project Intake): If you fill out a project brief, I use Tally.so, a GDPR-compliant form builder that encrypts responses.

These providers may store data on servers outside your country. For international transfers, I rely on providers' compliance (Processing Addendums).

6. Cookies and Tracking

I believe in a clean web. I do not use invasive tracking technologies.

I do not use Google Analytics.
I do not use Facebook Pixel or advertising trackers.

My analytics (Cloudflare) are 100% cookie-free. This website only uses essential technical cookies required for security (e.g., bot protection).

7. Data Retention

I retain personal data only for as long as necessary to complete our project, maintain business records, or comply with legal obligations. Once no longer required, your data will be securely deleted.

8. Data Security

I take reasonable technical measures to protect your information, including HTTPS encryption (SSL) and secure hosting infrastructure. While no system is absolute, I take appropriate steps to protect your data.

9. Your Rights

You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal data I hold about you. You may also withdraw your consent at any time.

If you are in the EU, you also have the right to restrict or object to processing, and lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

10. Updates & Contact

I may update this policy occasionally. Any changes will be posted here with an updated date.
