maaf / privacy

Privacy, plainly.

What this website actually does with your information — nothing more, nothing less.

Who's responsible

MAAF TECHNOLOGY LTD is the controller of personal data sent through this site. Registered office: 46 Nova Road, Croydon, England, CR0 2TL. Email: maaf@maaftechnology.win.

The contact form

When you press send, your browser posts what you typed to a small script on this website's server. The script checks the fields and hands your message to the hosting provider's mail system, addressed to our company mailbox. If that system accepts it, you see a reference number. Acceptance means the message was handed over for delivery — it isn't proof it reached our inbox.

To slow down abuse, the server keeps a temporary counter keyed to a one-way hash of your IP address for roughly fifteen minutes. Your message isn't stored in a database on this site. Our host may keep ordinary server logs (IP address, time, page requested) under its own policies.

Why we can use it

Your consent (the tick box) and our legitimate interest in answering enquiries and support requests. If you become a client, our contract with you also applies.

Cookies and storage

We set no cookies and use no analytics, advertising or social-media trackers. Your cookie-notice choice is kept in your browser's local storage. If you accept optional storage, the launch checklist on the store-launch page also remembers your ticks in local storage; rejecting clears them. None of this is sent to us. Change your mind at any time with “Cookie settings” in the footer.

Fonts, images and links

Fonts and photographs are served from this website, so no third-party font or image services see your visit. Links to other sites, such as OpenStreetMap, are governed by those sites' own policies.

How long we keep it

Enquiry emails are kept as long as needed to handle the enquiry and any work that follows. Enquiries that don't lead anywhere are reviewed and deleted within about two years unless the law requires otherwise.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete your data, object to or restrict how we use it, and withdraw consent. Email maaf@maaftechnology.win. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
