2. Data We Collect

We collect the following personal data when you use our website:

  • Contact form: name, email address, and message content when you submit the contact form.

  • POV tool usage: we log only the service ID and timestamp — we do not store the text you enter into the Proof of Value tool.
  • Calendar bookings: name, email address, and meeting details collected by Cal.com when you book a discovery call.
  • Server logs: IP addresses and request metadata collected automatically by AWS CloudFront and S3 for security and performance monitoring.
  • Analytics data: if you accept analytics cookies in the cookie banner, Google Analytics collects your approximate location, device and browser type, and pages visited. Not collected if you reject or ignore the cookie banner.

3. How We Use Your Data

  • To respond to enquiries submitted via the contact form.
  • To notify you when a waitlisted service becomes available.

We process your personal data under the following lawful bases:

  • Consent — for waitlist sign-ups, any optional communications you opt into, and Google Analytics cookies (given or withdrawn at any time via the cookie banner).

5. Data Storage and Retention

Contact and waitlist submissions are stored in AWS DynamoDB (eu-west-1, Ireland). Server logs are retained for 90 days in AWS S3. File uploads made via the POV tool are automatically deleted after 24 hours.
