Privacy Policy
How data is collected, used, and protected across the site, the contact form, and ZHBackup.
1. Overview
This policy explains how I collect, use, store, and protect personal information when you visit hassanzain.com, use the contact form, send a task request, or interact with any ZHBackup-related service.
By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.
2. Information I Collect
I may collect information that you submit directly, including:
- Name
- Agency name
- Email address
- Website or company URL
- Project type, timeline, budget, and message details
- Files, staging links, design files, or other attachments you provide
I may also collect limited technical data such as IP address, browser details, device information, and log data when the site is accessed.
3. How I Use Information
I use information to:
- Respond to your enquiry or task request
- Send confirmation emails and follow-up messages
- Review scope, estimate work, and manage project communication
- Keep records of requests and completed work
- Protect the site from spam, abuse, and unauthorized activity
- Improve the performance, usability, and reliability of the website
4. Cookies, Consent, and Tracking
The site may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies for essential functionality, spam protection, preferences, analytics, or marketing measurement if those tools are enabled.
If consent tools are used, non-essential tracking should only load after consent where required. You can control cookies through your browser settings and any on-site consent controls that are available.
5. How Information Is Shared
I do not sell personal information.
I may share limited data only with trusted service providers that help operate the site, such as hosting, email delivery, spam protection, analytics, caching, or backup systems. I may also disclose information when required by law or when necessary to protect rights, security, or site integrity.
6. Data Retention
I keep personal information only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected, to manage the working relationship, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce agreements.
Task requests submitted through the contact form may be stored in a private WordPress custom post type so I can manage enquiries and keep project records.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, update, export, restrict, or delete your personal information. You can also object to certain processing where applicable.
To make a request, contact me using the details below and I will review it in line with applicable law and reasonable security requirements.
8. Security
I use reasonable technical and administrative safeguards to protect personal information. No website or email system can be guaranteed to be fully secure, so sensitive information should be shared only when necessary.
9. Changes to This Policy
I may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in the site, services, or legal requirements. The latest version will always be posted on this page with the updated date.
