Small Factory 5 is a one-person consulting practice. This is the only site I operate, and this policy covers smallfactory5.com only.
What I collect
Contact form. If you use the contact form, I collect your name, email address, and whatever message you send. It's submitted throughWeb3Forms, a third-party form-processing service, and delivered to me by email. I use it only to respond to your inquiry.
Analytics. This site uses Google Analytics to understand traffic — which pages get visited, roughly where from, and general device/browser info. Google Analytics sets cookies to do this. I don't use that data to identify individual visitors personally.
Fonts. Typography on this site loads from Google Fonts. Loading a font from Google's servers shares your IP address with Google, the same as any request to an external server.
I don't use tracking pixels, ad networks, or any tool that sells or shares visitor data with advertisers.
Third parties involved
- Web3Forms — processes contact form submissions
- Google Analytics — site traffic analytics
- Google Fonts — typography
- Vercel — hosting for this site
Each of these has its own privacy practices governing the data that passes through them; this policy only covers what I do with information once I have it.
What I don't collect
No payment or billing information is collected through this site — client invoicing and payment happens through separate business tools, not this website. I don't require an account or login to use anything here.
How long I keep it
Contact form messages are kept as long as needed to respond and, if we end up working together, as part of normal client records. Analytics data is retained under Google Analytics' standard retention settings, not indefinitely by me directly.
Your rights
You can ask me what information I have tied to your name or email, and ask me to delete it, at any time — email hello@smallfactory5.comand I'll handle it directly, not through a ticket system.
Children's privacy
This site isn't directed at children, and I don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.
Changes to this policy
If what this site collects or how it's used changes, I'll update this page and change the effective date above. No separate notice beyond that.
