SmartKode is a software development and digital services agency. We build web applications, mobile apps, and custom digital solutions for clients worldwide. This Privacy Policy applies to our website (smartkode.co) and any services we provide directly to you.

• Contact information you voluntarily provide — such as your name, email address, and phone number — when you reach out to us via our contact form, email, or consultation requests.
• Project details and business requirements you share with us during discovery calls or onboarding, necessary to scope and deliver your project.
• Basic usage data from our website, such as pages visited, time spent, and the device/browser you used. This is collected through analytics tools and is not linked to your identity.
• Billing and payment information processed through our secure third-party payment providers. We do not store your full card details on our servers.

• To respond to your enquiries and provide project proposals or estimates.
• To deliver, manage, and improve the services you have engaged us for.
• To send project updates, invoices, and relevant communications related to your engagement.
• To send occasional newsletters or service announcements, only if you have explicitly opted in.
• To improve our website and understand which services are most relevant to our visitors.

We process your data based on your consent (when you fill out a form), the performance of a contract (when you engage our services), our legitimate business interests (improving our services and website), and (legal) obligations where applicable.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party. We may share data with trusted service providers — such as cloud hosting, analytics, or payment processors — strictly to operate our business. These providers are contractually bound to protect your data and may not use it for their own purposes.

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Client project data is typically retained for the duration of the engagement and up to 3 years thereafter for record-keeping purposes.

• Access — You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Correction — You can ask us to correct any inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Deletion — You can request that we delete your personal data, subject to any (legal) obligations we have to retain it.
• Opt-out — You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email or contacting us directly.
• To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@smartkode.dev.

Our website uses essential cookies to function correctly and analytics cookies to understand site usage. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some functionality.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. However, no transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the 'Last updated' date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at info@smartkode.co.
