2. Information We Collect

Information you provide

When you contact us through the website, email, telephone or WhatsApp, we collect the information you choose to share. This may include:

• Your name, email address and telephone number.
• Your company, professional role and business contact details.
• Your project type, location, requirements, specifications and budget.
• Messages, correspondence and project materials you send us.

Please provide only information relevant to your inquiry. If you share another person’s information or project materials, make sure you are authorized to do so.

Website and device information

Our website is hosted on Shopify. When you browse it, Shopify and the services supporting the website may collect technical information such as your IP address, browser and device details, pages visited, referring links and interactions with the website.

Cookies and similar technologies may be involved in this processing. See Section 5 for more information.

No online checkout

The website does not offer online purchasing or collect payment card details through a checkout. Information needed for a separately agreed project or transaction is handled through the relevant business communications and documentation.

3. Why We Use Your Information

We use personal information to:

• Respond to inquiries and communicate with you.
• Understand project requirements and prepare proposals or quotations.
• Coordinate sourcing, specifications and agreed services.
• Manage customer, supplier and professional relationships.
• Operate, maintain and protect the website.
• Prevent spam, misuse and unauthorized access.
• Keep necessary business records and meet applicable legal obligations.

Submitting an inquiry does not automatically subscribe you to marketing messages. Any marketing communications will be sent only where permitted by applicable law, with a way to unsubscribe.

Providing information through an inquiry is voluntary. You are not legally required to submit it, but without relevant contact or project details, we may be unable to respond or prepare a proposal.

Where applicable law requires us to identify a legal basis, we rely on your consent, steps taken at your request before entering into a contract, performance of a contract, applicable legal obligations, or legitimate interests recognized under that law.

4. Who Receives Your Information

We share relevant information only where needed for the purposes described in this policy, including with:

• Website and technology providers, including Shopify, and providers supporting email, hosting, security and business communications.
• Project suppliers and service providers, where necessary to obtain quotations or carry out requested or agreed work. We limit identifying information to what is needed.
• Professional advisers, where necessary for accounting, legal or other professional services.
• Authorities or other recipients, where disclosure is required by law or reasonably necessary to establish or defend legal rights.

If our business is transferred or reorganized, relevant information may be transferred as part of that process, subject to applicable safeguards and notification requirements.

5. Cookies, Analytics and Privacy Choices

The website uses cookies and similar technologies to support its operation, security and functionality.

[Complete before publication: identify the analytics and advertising tools actually enabled, their purposes, the information they receive, and the available consent controls. Confirm the status of Shopify Network Intelligence.]

Where consent is required for non-essential technologies, those technologies should operate only after the required consent has been obtained. You can also manage cookies through your browser, although disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

You can access available data-sharing controls through the website’s Your Privacy Choices page. These controls are separate from the general information provided in this policy.

Shopify processes information to host and support the website. More information about Shopify’s own processing is available in Shopify’s Consumer Privacy Policy and its Privacy Portal.

6. International Processing

Our service providers may store or process information outside Israel, including in countries with different privacy laws.

Where required, we use appropriate legal mechanisms and safeguards for international transfers. You may contact us for information about the safeguards applicable to your information.

7. How Long We Keep Information

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

Retention depends on the nature of the inquiry, whether it develops into an ongoing business relationship, and applicable recordkeeping or legal requirements. Information needed for a dispute may be retained for the relevant period.

When information is no longer needed, we delete it or anonymize it, subject to applicable requirements.

8. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or disclosure.

No website, email service or method of electronic storage can guarantee absolute security.

9. Your Rights

Depending on the law applicable to your information, you may have rights to:

• Access personal information held about you.
• Request correction or deletion of information that is inaccurate, incomplete, unclear or outdated.
• Request deletion, restriction or portability in circumstances provided by applicable law.
• Object to certain processing or withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.
• Opt out of marketing or qualifying advertising-related data sharing.
• Submit a complaint to the relevant privacy authority.

To make a request, contact info@designersproject.com. We may request information reasonably necessary to verify your identity and will respond within the period required by applicable law.

Some requests may be subject to legal exceptions, including where information must be retained to comply with an obligation or defend a legal claim.

10. External Services

Links to external websites or communication services, including WhatsApp, are governed by those providers’ own terms and privacy policies. This policy covers our handling of information we receive through those channels.

11. Updates

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices, services or legal requirements. The revised version will show an updated date. Where required, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent before making relevant changes.
