If you have any questions or requests concerning your personal data (access, correction, erasure, objections, etc.), please contact us at the address above.

2. Scope & Applicability

This policy applies to all users and visitors of LNQKIT — including registered users, subscribers, and guests. It describes how we collect, store, process, and protect personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and your rights under this regulation.

3. What Data We Collect & Why

Depending on how you use LNQKIT, we may collect one or more of the following categories of data:

a. Personal & Account Data

  1. Name, email address, username, account credentials (encrypted), contact information (if provided)
  2. IP address, geographic region, browser type and settings, language, device information

Purpose:

  1. To create and manage your account — registration, login, password recovery
  2. To authenticate access and protect account security
  3. To communicate with you (e.g. notifications, updates, support)

Legal basis: Performance of a contract (providing account-based services) and legitimate interest (security, account management).

b. Usage & Analytics Data

  1. Pages visited, time spent, features used, navigation paths, page requests, session data, error logs, performance statistics

Purpose:

  1. To analyze usage patterns and improve UX, performance, and functionality
  2. To detect and prevent misuse, fraud, or security issues
  3. To plan and prioritize product development and enhancements

Legal basis: Legitimate interest (improving and protecting the service, analytics, security).

c. Communications & Support Data

  1. Emails, support requests, messages exchanged, user feedback

Purpose:

  1. To respond to inquiries, provide support, handle account or service issues
  2. To keep records of communication if required for legal or support purposes

Legal basis: Legitimate interest (customer support) or performance of a contract.

d. Optional Data & Consent-based Processing

If you provide additional information (e.g. preferences, optional profile fields, marketing consent) or accept optional tracking (non-essential cookies, third‑party integrations), such data will be collected only with your explicit consent.

You may withdraw consent at any time.

4. Data Sharing & Third‑Party Processors

We do not sell your personal data. However, in order to operate and improve LNQKIT we may share your data with third‑party service providers (processors) under confidentiality and data‑processing agreements. Examples include:

  1. Hosting providers and infrastructure services
  2. Analytics services entrusted with aggregated or anonymised data
  3. Email or mailing‑list services (only if you subscribe or consent to communications)
  4. Backup and security services

We ensure that any third party we partner with maintains adequate data protection standards and complies with GDPR obligations.

Note: Data is only shared when necessary to deliver services, or when required by law (e.g. court or regulatory request).

5. Data Transfers outside EU / EEA / UK

If your data is processed or stored outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the UK — for example in a third‑party data center or service provider — we ensure such transfer is legally compliant. We implement appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses), or rely on legally recognised transfer mechanisms.

6. Data Retention & Storage Periods

  1. Account & profile data: retained for as long as the account is active, or as required to provide services, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes.
  2. Usage & analytics data: retained for a reasonable, limited period (e.g. 12–24 months), unless further retention is justified by legitimate interest (e.g. security, fraud prevention, analytics).
  3. Support & communication logs: retained for as long as necessary to respond to your request, or as needed for legal and accounting requirements.

You may request deletion of your data (see next section).

7. Your Rights Under GDPR

As a data subject under GDPR, you have the following rights (subject to applicable conditions):

  1. Right of Access: Request a copy of all personal data we hold about you.
  2. Right of Correction: Request correction or update of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  3. Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): Request deletion of your personal data, when we have no legitimate reason to retain it.
  4. Right to Restrict Processing: Request suspension of processing under certain circumstances.
  5. Right to Data Portability: Receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machinereadable format (when processing is based on consent or contract).
  6. Right to Object: Object to processing based on legitimate interest, or object to marketing/tracking profiling.
  7. Right to Withdraw Consent: If you previously gave consent for data processing (e.g. optional tracking), you can withdraw it at any time.
  8. Right to Lodge a Complaint: If you believe your data protection rights are violated, you have the right to file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in your jurisdiction.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at: info@lnqkit.com

8. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

LNQKIT uses cookies and similar technologies as follows:

  1. Essential cookies: strictly necessary for the site functionality (e.g. login sessions, security, site preferences). These are always enabled.
  2. Non‑essential cookies / tracking / analytics: (e.g. for usage analytics, performance monitoring, optional tracking) are only enabled after you explicitly consent.
  3. Consent management: You can manage, refuse or withdraw consent at any time — via site preferences or your browser settings.
  4. Cookie banner: A clear consent banner will inform you when non-essential cookies are used and allow you to accept or reject them.

9. Security Measures

We take appropriate organizational, technical, and administrative measures to protect your personal data, including but not limited to:

  1. Encryption of data in transit (HTTPS)
  2. Secure storage and restricted access — only authorized personnel or services have access to personal data
  3. Regular security audits and updates
  4. Access controls, anonymization or pseudonymization where possible
  5. Monitoring and logging to detect unauthorized access or data breaches

10. Data Breach Notification & Mitigation

In the event of a personal data breach that risks your rights or freedoms, we will:

  1. Notify you without undue delay, in accordance with applicable law
  2. Provide clear information about the nature of the breach, what data is affected, and what corrective measures we are taking
  3. Take steps to contain and mitigate the breach, prevent future occurrences, and improve security procedures

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this GDPR & Data Protection Policy from time to time to reflect changes in legal requirements, our services, or how we process data.

When changes occur:

  1. We will update the “Last Updated” date at the top.
  2. For significant changes (new data collection, new processing purposes), we may request renewed consent, or notify you directly.

Please review this policy periodically.
