Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

Contact & Inquiry Forms

When visitors submit inquiries through our official contact forms or intake modules, we collect the personal details provided (such as name, organization, email address, phone number, and inquiry details). This data is processed strictly for official communication, institutional matchmaking, and service fulfillment.

Google Analytics & Site Kit by Google

We use Site Kit by Google to integrate Google Analytics. This service collects anonymized performance and traffic metrics (such as IP addresses, browser type, device details, pages visited, and time spent on site). This data is used solely to understand site usage, optimize performance, and enhance institutional user experience.

Google Ads & Remarketing Tags

Our website utilizes Google Ads conversion tracking and remarketing tags. Google uses cookies and unique identifiers to serve relevant operational updates, promote official initiatives, and measure the effectiveness of our public outreach campaigns. Visitors can manage or opt-out of personalized Google Ads by visiting Google Ad Settings (https://ads.google.com/settings) or through the Complianz cookie consent banner on our website.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies managed by our consent management platform (Complianz) to ensure full compliance with EU GDPR regulations:

Necessary Cookies: Essential for secure navigation, SSL functionality, and session safety.
Analytics Cookies: Placed via Site Kit by Google to collect aggregate, anonymous statistics about site usage.
Marketing Cookies: Placed via Google Ads to track ad campaign engagement and measure visitor conversions.

You can modify or withdraw your cookie consent at any time using the Cookie Preferences widget in the footer of our website.

Embedded Content From Other Websites

Articles or resources on this site may include embedded content (e.g., YouTube videos, external publication links, interactive maps). Embedded content from third-party websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor had visited the third-party website directly.

These third-party sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, particularly if you have an active account logged into that third-party platform.

Data Sharing & Security

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data to commercial third parties. Data is only shared with trusted service infrastructure providers (such as Google for Analytics/Ads processing and web hosting providers) bound by strict confidentiality and data protection standards.

If you request an administrative action (such as a password reset for authorized site managers), your IP address will be included in the security email.

Data Retention

Inquiry submissions and communication records are retained for as long as necessary to fulfill trade facilitation objectives, legal compliance, or institutional record-keeping. Analytics data processed via Google Site Kit is retained in accordance with Google’s standard data retention schedules.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to:

Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
Request correction or complete erasure of your personal data.
Withdraw cookie or marketing consent at any time.

This does not include any data we are legally, administratively, or contractually obligated to retain for security and regulatory compliance. Requests can be directed to info@swe-irqcci.com.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Automated security scanners, spam detection tools, and Google processing servers (via Google Ads and Site Kit) may process visitor traffic metrics securely across European and international server networks in compliance with standard data protection safeguards.
