Privacy Policy

Introduction

Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains the types of information we collect on hoatechnology.com, how we use it, the rights you have over your information, and the steps we take to protect it.

Definitions

“Personal Data” refers to information that identifies you directly, such as your name or email address, as well as device identifiers.
“Non-Personal Data” refers to aggregated or anonymized data, such as general website usage patterns and analytics collected via cookies.

Information We Collect

We collect information you provide through contact forms, including your name, business email, and company details, which are used only to respond to your inquiries. We also collect data automatically through cookies and similar technologies to improve website performance, analyze visitor behavior, and enhance your browsing experience.
Additional data may be collected from third-party analytics and marketing tools, such as Google Analytics, including your IP address, browser type, device type, location, pages visited, and time stamps. If you sign up for newsletters or updates, we may also collect your email preferences, job title, and company size.

How Your Information Is Used

Your information may be used to respond to your requests, improve and personalize our services, send updates and marketing communications (only with your consent), and comply with legal obligations. We may also process data for legitimate business purposes such as website optimization and security.

Legal Basis for Processing

We rely on your consent for optional communications, contractual necessity to fulfill service requests, legitimate interests to enhance and secure our services, and compliance with applicable laws.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use different categories of cookies—such as essential, performance, and marketing—to operate our site effectively. Each type of cookie has a specific purpose and retention period. You can accept, reject, or customize cookie settings through our consent banner.

Your Rights

You have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, request corrections, request deletion (“right to be forgotten”), and receive your data in a portable format. You may also object to certain processing activities, restrict how we use your information, opt out of marketing communications, and opt out of data sale or sharing as permitted under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA).

Third-Party Disclosures

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with trusted service providers, such as hosting platforms and analytics providers, solely to support business operations. Information may also be disclosed to meet legal requirements.

International Data Transfers

If your data is processed outside your country, we ensure adequate protection through mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses or other legally approved safeguards.

Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with legal requirements. Contact form submissions are retained until the request has been addressed or as required by law. Cookie and analytics data are stored for a limited duration, and marketing data is retained until you withdraw consent.

Security

We use a combination of technical, administrative, and physical safeguards—including encryption and restricted access—to protect your information. Security measures are reviewed regularly to keep pace with evolving threats.

Children’s Privacy

Our website is not intended for children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required by local law), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.

Policy Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The date at the top of the policy will reflect the most recent revision, and significant changes will be communicated on our website.
