Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 15, 2025

At Hikari Webworks ("we", "our", or "us"), we believe in clarity - not just in design, but in how we operate. This Privacy Policy is designed to be straightforward and transparent. It explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website. We respect your privacy and are committed to handling your data with care and integrity.

Information We Collect

We collect two types of information to help us better serve you:

Personal Information

You may voluntarily provide us with personal details such as your name, email address, phone number, and project details when you fill out a contact form, send us an email, or connect with us via WhatsApp.

Non-Personal Information

We automatically collect basic, non-personal technical data when you visit. This may include your browser type, device information, pages visited, and general usage patterns. This helps us understand how our site is performing.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information solely for the purpose of running our business effectively. This includes:

  • Responding to your inquiries and starting conversations about potential projects.
  • Providing the services you have requested.
  • Improving our website's performance and user experience.
  • Communicating with you about relevant updates or services (only if you have opted in or engaged with us).

Cookies & Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience. These are small text files stored on your device that help us analyze website traffic and remember your preferences. We use this data for performance insights, not for intrusive tracking. You are always in control - you can adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies if you prefer.

Data Sharing

Trust is our currency. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

We may share data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website and conducting our business (such as hosting providers, email services, or analytics tools). These partners are bound by confidentiality and only access data necessary to perform their specific functions.

Data Security

We take data security seriously. We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, please be aware that no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Data Retention

We believe in digital minimalism. We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. If you would like us to delete your information, you may request this at any time.

Your Rights

You have the right to control your personal data. You may contact us to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you.
  • Correct any inaccuracies in your information.
  • Request the deletion of your data.
  • Withdraw your consent for us to use your data.

External Links

Our website may contain links to external sites that are not operated by us. Please be aware that we have no control over the content and practices of these sites and cannot accept responsibility or liability for their respective privacy policies. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any external site you visit.

Children’s Privacy

Our services are professional in nature and are not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so that we can take necessary actions.

Changes & Updates

The digital landscape evolves, and so may our policies. We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to check back periodically.
