Privacy Policy

Modenic is the controller of the personal information described in this policy. You can reach us about privacy matters through our Contact page.

We collect only what we need to respond to you and run the website:

• Contact details you submit through our forms, such as your name, business email, company, job title, and phone number
• Project information you choose to share, such as the service you are interested in, budget range, timeline, and your message
• Job application details, such as your CV, portfolio links, and any information you include in your application
• Technical data such as browser type, device type, and pages visited, collected only where you have consented to analytics cookies
• Records of your cookie choices, so we can respect them on later visits

We use personal information to:

• Reply to enquiries and discuss potential projects
• Prepare proposals and, if you become a client, manage our relationship with you
• Assess job applications and communicate with candidates
• Keep the website secure, prevent spam and abuse, and fix technical problems
• Understand how the website is used and improve it, where you have consented to analytics
• Meet our legal and regulatory obligations

Where data protection laws such as the GDPR or UK GDPR apply, we rely on: your consent (for analytics and marketing cookies, and optional marketing emails); steps taken at your request before entering a contract (for project enquiries and proposals); our legitimate interests in running and securing our business and responding to business contacts; and legal obligation where the law requires us to keep certain records.

Where you have given consent, you can withdraw it at any time. This does not affect processing that took place before you withdrew it.

We do not sell or rent personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us operate, such as website hosting, email, form handling, and customer relationship management tools. They may use it only to provide their services to us and must protect it under written agreements.

We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, in which case we will tell you.

Our service providers may process information in countries other than your own. Where we transfer personal information out of the UK or European Economic Area, we use recognized safeguards such as adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses.

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes above:

• Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement: until they are no longer needed to follow up, then deleted
• Client and contract records: for the duration of the relationship and as long as required for tax, accounting, and legal purposes
• Job applications: until the recruitment process ends, unless you agree to us keeping them for future roles
• Cookie preferences: stored only in your own browser, until you clear it or change your choice

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, correct it, delete it, restrict or object to how we use it, receive a copy in a portable format, and withdraw consent. Residents of some US states may also have the right to know what we collect and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us through our Contact page. We will respond within the time required by applicable law and may need to verify your identity first. You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.

We protect personal information with technical and organizational measures appropriate to the risk, including encryption in transit, access controls based on least privilege, and regular review of the tools we use. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

This website is intended for business users and is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

We may update this policy as our practices or legal requirements change. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. For significant changes, we will make the update clear on the website.
