Privacy policy
Last updated . Plain-language summary below; full text follows.
- We collect what you give us (contact form) and aggregate analytics.
- We never sell your data.
- We use a small set of trusted processors (hosting, analytics, email).
- You can ask us to delete your data at any time.
1. Overview
Aetheric HQ (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit aetherichq.com (“the Site”), how we use it, and the rights you have over your data.
By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
2. Information we collect
We collect the minimum information needed to operate:
- Information you provide — name, work email, company, project details, and any message you send via our contact form or email.
- Usage data — pages viewed, referring URL, browser type, device, and approximate location (city/country). Collected via Google Analytics 4, a privacy-respecting analytics service.
- Cookies — small files stored on your device to remember preferences (e.g. theme). When you accept analytics cookies, we also use Google Analytics to measure traffic. We do not use advertising cookies, and analytics only run after you opt in via the consent banner.
3. How we use your information
- To respond to inquiries you send us (contact form, email).
- To operate, secure, and improve the Site (analytics, debugging, performance).
- To send you operational communications (e.g. replies to your message). We do not send marketing email unless you explicitly opt in.
- To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
4. Sharing & disclosure
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with:
- Service providers — hosting, error tracking, analytics, and email delivery, bound by confidentiality and data-processing terms.
- Legal — when required by law or to protect our rights, users, or the public.
- Business transfers — if Aetheric is acquired or merged, in which case we will notify you.
5. Data retention
Contact form submissions are retained for up to 24 months unless you request earlier deletion. Analytics data is retained in aggregate, de-identified form for up to 26 months.
6. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Delete your data (right to be forgotten).
- Object to or restrict certain processing (e.g. marketing).
- Port your data in a machine-readable format.
- Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting prior processing.
- Lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.
To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@aetherichq.com.
7. International transfers
We may process data in countries other than your own. When we transfer personal data out of the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent safeguards.
8. Security
We use industry-standard measures (encryption in transit, least-privilege access, audited vendors) to protect your data. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach occurs affecting you, we will notify you without undue delay.
9. Children
The Site is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect the change. Material changes will be communicated via the Site or email where appropriate.
