Data we collect
- Contact details you submit via forms (name, email, message content, engagement preferences, preferred dates)
- Correspondence related to scoping and engagements
- Technical data such as browser type and pages visited when analytics cookies are accepted
- Documents and personal data contained in working papers you supply during an engagement (processed only to deliver the agreed service)
Purposes
We use personal data to respond to enquiries, prepare proposals, perform engagements, meet legal obligations, and — with consent where required — improve the site via analytics.
Legal bases
Depending on context, we rely on your request to take steps before a contract, performance of a contract, legitimate interests in operating a professional practice, consent for non-essential cookies, and legal obligations.
Retention
Enquiry records are kept up to 24 months after the last correspondence if no engagement follows. Engagement files are retained for at least seven years or longer where professional or legal requirements apply. Analytics data follows the cookie durations listed on our Cookies page.
Sharing
We share personal data with service providers who host email or site infrastructure, professional advisers when required, and authorities when lawfully demanded. We do not sell personal data.
International transfers
If data is processed outside Hong Kong, we take steps appropriate to the transfer, such as contractual protections with providers, having regard to applicable Hong Kong requirements.
Your rights
Subject to Hong Kong law, you may request access to personal data we hold about you, correction of inaccuracies, and information about how it is used. To exercise rights, email info@smartdatalinker.digital. You may also complain to the relevant privacy authority in Hong Kong.
Children
The site and services are directed at business clients, not children.
Changes
We may update this policy by posting changes here. Significant changes will be highlighted when practicable.
