Privacy Policy
Last updated 4 September 2026 · Beyond Website Development
We collect the minimum needed to answer your enquiry, build your site and take payment. Nothing is sold, and nothing is shared for advertising.
What we collect
- When you use the contact form: your name, email address, and whatever you write in the message.
- When you use the chat assistant: the messages you type. Do not put passwords or card numbers into it.
- When you become a client: billing name, email, billing address and business details.
- When you pay: handled entirely by Stripe. Your full card number never reaches this website or our systems.
Why we collect it
To reply to you, to design and build what you have asked for, to host and maintain it, to take payment, and to meet tax and accounting obligations. That is the complete list. We do not build advertising profiles and we do not run third-party ad trackers.
Who else processes it
These companies handle data on our behalf, each under its own privacy policy:
- Stripe: payments, subscriptions and invoices. Stripe stores your card details, not us.
- Cloudflare: hosting, DNS and content delivery for this site and for client sites.
- Resend: delivery of contact-form emails.
- Anthropic: powers the chat assistant. Your chat messages are sent to Anthropic to generate a reply.
How long we keep it
Enquiries that do not become projects are deleted after 12 months. Client records are kept for as long as you are a client, and then for the period tax law requires us to retain financial records. Site backups are kept for 30 days after a care plan ends.
Cookies
This site does not use advertising or tracking cookies. It stores one small flag in your browser to remember that you have already seen the opening animation, so it does not replay on every page. That flag never leaves your device.
Your data, your call
Email Joshua.Journet@protonmail.com to see what we hold about you, correct it, or have it deleted. We act on requests within 30 days. You do not need to give a reason.
Children
This is a business-to-business service. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes materially, the date at the top of the page changes with it, and active clients are told by email.
