Privacy Policy.

1. Information we collect

We collect only what we need to respond to you and to run this website.

• Information you give us. When you submit the contact form we collect your name, email address, optional budget range and the contents of your message.
• Information collected automatically. Standard server logs may record your IP address, browser type, referring page and the time of your request.
• Client project data. When we work together we may process information you share with us under a separate written agreement, which takes precedence over this policy.

2. How we use your information

• To reply to enquiries and provide the services you have asked for.
• To operate, secure and improve this website.
• To meet our legal, accounting and reporting obligations.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your contact details for unrelated marketing without your consent.

3. Legal basis for processing

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on: your consent (when you submit the contact form), our legitimate interests (running and securing the site), performance of a contract (delivering agreed work), and legal obligation (record keeping).

4. Cookies and analytics

This site does not set advertising or tracking cookies. If you add an analytics provider, describe it here, name the provider, and add a consent banner where the law requires one.

5. Sharing and processors

We share personal information only with service providers who help us operate — for example email hosting, form handling and cloud infrastructure — and only to the extent needed. Each is bound by confidentiality obligations. We may also disclose information where required by law.

6. Data retention

Contact-form submissions are kept for as long as needed to handle your enquiry and for a reasonable period afterwards, then deleted. Project records are retained for the period set out in our agreement with you and any applicable statutory period.

7. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, port or restrict the processing of your personal information, to object to processing, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these, email bill@codegradientsapps.com. You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.

8. Security

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit and access controls. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. International transfers

We may process information in countries other than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.

10. Children

This website is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date above will always reflect the current version.
