We keep things simple — we collect very little, we don't sell anything, and we're transparent about what we do with your data.
When you use our contact form, we collect:
We do not use cookies for tracking, we do not use analytics, and we do not collect any data beyond what you voluntarily provide.
Your information is used solely to respond to your inquiry and for any follow-up conversations related to your request. We do not use your information for marketing, we do not share it with third parties for their own purposes, and we do not sell your data to anyone.

Once communication is complete and there is no ongoing business relationship, we delete your information within a reasonable timeframe. You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us directly.
