Should we integrate such services in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy accordingly and, where required by law, obtain your consent before enabling such collection.

4.3 Site Improvement
Aggregated and anonymized technical data is analyzed to understand usage patterns, identify popular content, detect and resolve performance issues, and guide improvements to the Site user experience. This analysis does not involve profiling individual users or making automated decisions that affect individuals.
4.4 Legal Compliance
We may process your information as necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes, or governmental requests. This includes responding to lawful requests from public authorities, enforcing our Terms of Service, protecting our rights and property, and ensuring the safety and security of our systems and users.
5. Legal Basis for Processing
The legal grounds for processing your personal information vary depending on the nature of the data and the purpose of processing. We process personal data only when we have a valid legal basis to do so under applicable data protection laws.
For individuals located in jurisdictions that require a specific legal basis, our processing is based on one or more of the following: your explicit consent, which you may withdraw at any time; the necessity of processing for the performance of a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract; compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject; or our legitimate interests in operating and improving our business, provided those interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.
Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal. To withdraw consent, please contact us using the details provided in Section 16.
6. Data Storage and Security
Protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your personal information is a fundamental priority for us. We implement and maintain a comprehensive set of technical, administrative, and physical security measures designed to safeguard your data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
6.1 Technical Measures
Our security infrastructure includes industry-standard encryption protocols for data transmission (TLS/SSL), secure server configurations, regular security patch management, network firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and access control mechanisms that limit data access to authorized personnel on a need-to-know basis. All systems are monitored continuously for suspicious activity, and security audits are conducted at regular intervals to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities.
6.2 Administrative Measures
We maintain internal policies and procedures that govern the handling of personal data by our employees and contractors. All personnel with access to personal data receive training on data protection requirements and are bound by confidentiality obligations. Access rights are reviewed periodically and revoked promptly upon termination of employment or change in role.
6.3 Data Storage Location
Your personal information is stored on secure servers located in data centers within China and, where applicable for service continuity, in other jurisdictions that provide adequate levels of data protection. We take steps to ensure that any cross-border data transfers comply with applicable legal requirements, as further described in Section 13.
6.4 No Absolute Security
While we strive to protect your personal information using commercially reasonable means, no method of electronic storage or transmission over the Internet is one hundred percent secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and you acknowledge that you provide your personal information at your own risk. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please notify us immediately using the contact details in Section 16.
7. Data Retention Periods
We retain personal information only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable laws and regulations. When personal data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it so that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.
7.1 Retention Criteria
The specific retention period for each category of data is determined by several factors, including the nature and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process the data, applicable legal requirements such as tax and commercial record-keeping obligations, and whether those purposes can be achieved through other means.
7.2 Typical Retention Durations
Inquiry and correspondence data is typically retained for up to twenty-four months after the last communication, unless an ongoing client relationship extends that period. Technical log data is retained for a maximum of twelve months. Client project records and contractual documents are retained for the duration of the business relationship plus any additional period required by applicable commercial and tax laws.
8. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise disclose your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We share your data only in the limited circumstances described below, and always in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
8.1 Service Providers
We may engage trusted third-party companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf, such as website hosting, email delivery, data storage, and IT infrastructure management. These service providers have access to personal data only as needed to perform their specific functions and are contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality and security of that data, to process it only in accordance with our instructions, and to comply with applicable data protection laws.
8.2 Legal Obligations
We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law, regulation, court order, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others, to investigate fraud, or to respond to a government request.
8.3 Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, or bankruptcy, your personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email or a prominent notice on the Site before your personal data is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
