PRIVACY POLICY
Effective date: August 16, 2025
Controller: Kubuni (operating from the United States and India)
Contact: info@kubuni.in | +91 94909 40928 +91 81252 69002
This Policy covers personal data collected through our public website and simple contact/career forms (the “Site”). It does not cover data processed under client agreements or vendor contracts; those are handled separately.
1. What we collect
-
Contact details: name, email, phone, company, role.
-
Form content: Project brief, reference files you upload, messages; career info like résumé/portfolio links.
-
Newsletter choice: Whether you opt in to Kubuni newsletters/updates (via a checkbox on our forms).
-
Technical/usage data: IP address, device/browser details, pages viewed, timestamps.
-
Email delivery/engagement (newsletter only): Basic information such as delivery status and whether an email was opened/clicked (if your email app loads images; you can disable images to reduce this).
2. How we use data
-
Respond to inquiries, provide quotes, and manage recruiting conversations.
-
Operate, secure, and improve the Site (including diagnostics and abuse prevention).
-
Newsletters/marketing: if you opt in, we send occasional Kubuni updates, articles, and announcements. You can unsubscribe anytime.
-
Comply with legal requirements and enforce our terms.
3. Legal bases
(EEA/UK where applicable)
-
Contract (responding to your inquiries/applications).
-
Legitimate interests (security, site improvement, basic B2B communications).
-
Consent (newsletters and any non-essential tracking related to them).
-
Legal obligation (recordkeeping, compliance).
4. Cookies & tracking
We currently do not use non-essential cookies or advertising pixels on the Site. Essential cookies may be used for core functions (e.g., security/session). If we add analytics or ads later, we’ll update this Policy and, where required, request consent.
Email-only tracking: Newsletters may include standard pixels to measure delivery/open/click performance; unsubscribe to stop these or disable images in your email client.
5. Chat & embeds
If you use our chat widget, we process your messages and contact details to reply. We avoid third-party embeds by default.
6. Sharing your data
We share personal data only with:
-
Service providers (website platform/hosting/security, email delivery via Google Workspace, cloud storage, recruiting tools) acting under our instructions;
-
Legal/rights protection when required by law or to protect security and safety;
-
Business transfers (e.g., merger/acquisition) with appropriate safeguards.
We do not sell personal information. We also do not “share” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
7. International transfers
Because we operate from the U.S. and India and use global service providers, your data may be transferred internationally. Where required (e.g., for EEA/UK residents), we use lawful transfer mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses and additional measures as appropriate.
8. Retention
We keep data only as long as needed, then delete or anonymize:
-
Leads/inquiries: 24 months after last contact
-
Email/newsletter contacts: until you unsubscribe or withdraw consent (we keep a minimal record of your opt-out to honor it)
-
Contracts/invoices (if any are generated offsite): 7 years
-
Diagnostics/analytics (if enabled in future): tool default (typically ~26 months)
9. Security
We use appropriate safeguards, including encryption in transit, least-privilege access controls, and multi-factor authentication for admin accounts. No method is 100% secure, but we work to protect your data.
10. Your rights
Depending on your location, you may request to access, correct, delete, object/opt-out (including marketing), restrict, port, or withdraw consent.
-
EEA/UK: GDPR/UK GDPR rights; you may contact your local data protection authority. We currently do not appoint an EU/UK representative; if obligations change, we’ll update this section.
-
United States (state laws such as CA/CO/CT/VA/UT): rights to access, correct, delete, and opt out of sale/share/targeted ads (we don’t sell/share, but we still provide a footer link for requests).
-
Other regions (e.g., Brazil/Canada): similar rights may apply.
How to exercise: email info@kubuni.in We’ll verify identity and respond within the required timeframe. For newsletters, use the unsubscribe link in any email or email us.
11. Do Not Track
We honor browser “Do Not Track” (DNT) by limiting non-essential tracking (and we do not run analytics/ads on the Site). If we enable analytics/ads later, we’ll continue to respect DNT and offer controls.
12. Children
Our Site is not directed to children under 13 (or higher age where local law applies). If you believe a child provided data, contact us and we will delete it.
13. Changes
We may update this Policy as our practices change. We’ll post a new “Effective date” for material changes.
