Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice explains how QuarkyByte LLC ("QuarkyByte," "we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, discloses, and stores information in connection with the QuarkyByte website and communications submitted through it.

This notice is intended to describe the current website experience as it exists today, including informational pages, contact form submissions, spam prevention, website measurement infrastructure, and message routing to our team. It does not describe separate client engagements, custom deployments, or other business relationships that may be governed by different contractual terms.

When you use the Website's contact form or otherwise communicate with us, you may provide information such as your name, company email address, company name, company size, and the contents of your message.

You may also provide information by contacting us directly at our published email addresses. Please do not send highly sensitive personal information unless it is reasonably necessary and you are comfortable using the selected communication channel.

Like most websites, we and our service providers may automatically receive limited technical information when you visit the Website. This can include information such as IP address, browser type, device characteristics, referring page, page requests, and general interaction data that helps operate, secure, and improve the Website.

The Website also loads Google Tag Manager to support website tag management and measurement configuration. Depending on our configuration at a given time, this may support analytics or related operational tags that help us understand aggregate Website usage and performance.

We use information collected through the Website to respond to inquiries, evaluate potential business relationships, route messages to the appropriate people, maintain and secure the Website, troubleshoot issues, and understand overall Website performance.

We may also use information to comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms and policies, protect the rights and safety of QuarkyByte and others, prevent abuse, and maintain internal business records associated with inquiries and communications.

We do not sell personal information collected through the Website. We may disclose information to service providers that help us host, secure, monitor, and operate the Website, support spam prevention and abuse mitigation, support website measurement, or deliver and route messages submitted through the Website.

We may also disclose information if we believe doing so is reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect our rights or property, investigate abuse, or protect the safety of QuarkyByte, our users, or others.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this notice, including responding to your inquiry, maintaining business records, operating the Website, resolving disputes, and meeting legal, regulatory, tax, security, or compliance obligations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information, the purpose for which it was collected, and our legal or operational obligations.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to help protect information connected to the Website. No method of transmission over the internet or method of storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Our contact workflow includes measures intended to reduce automated abuse, including token-based spam prevention checks before contact requests are accepted.

Depending on where you live, you may have privacy rights regarding information we hold about you, such as rights to request access, correction, deletion, or limitation of certain processing. We will evaluate requests in accordance with applicable law and our legitimate business and legal obligations.

If you would like to make a request related to information submitted through the Website, contact us using the details below and provide enough information for us to understand and respond to your request.

The Website is intended for business and professional audiences and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Website.

If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Website, contact us and we will review the request and take appropriate action.

The Website may use cookies, tags, pixels, local storage, or similar technologies to support core Website operation, security, tag management, and aggregate performance measurement. Your browser may allow you to block or delete certain technologies, but doing so can affect how portions of the Website behave.

Because website measurement and tag configuration can change over time, this notice is written to reflect operational and measurement technologies at a high level without overstating features that may not always be enabled.

The Website may contain links to third-party websites or services. Those websites and services operate under their own terms and privacy policies, and QuarkyByte is not responsible for their content or practices.

We may update this Privacy Notice from time to time to reflect changes to the Website, our business practices, or legal requirements. When we do, we will post the updated version here and revise the date shown above, unless another type of notice is legally required.

If you have questions about this Privacy Notice or want to make a privacy-related request, you can contact QuarkyByte at hello@quarkybyte.com or through our contact page.
