1. Information we collect
JM Forge Web Studio may collect information that you voluntarily provide through the website or by email, including your name, business name, email address, type of business, approximate budget, enquiry message and consent to be contacted.
2. Why we use your information
- To respond to enquiries and prepare quotations.
- To communicate about current or potential projects.
- To deliver contracted digital services.
- To maintain basic business, payment and support records.
- To protect the website and prevent spam, fraud or abuse.
- To comply with legal, tax, accounting or payment-processing obligations where applicable.
3. Website forms and hosting
The website is hosted using third-party infrastructure. Enquiry-form submissions may be processed and stored by the hosting/form provider so that JM Forge Web Studio can receive and respond to them.
4. Payments
Payments may be processed by Razorpay or another approved payment provider. Payment-card or bank credentials are entered into the payment provider's secure checkout and are not intentionally stored by JM Forge Web Studio. Payment providers may collect information required to process payments, perform verification, prevent fraud and comply with law under their own privacy terms.
5. Sharing of information
Personal information is not sold. Information may be shared only with service providers that are reasonably necessary to operate the website, communicate with you, deliver a project, process a payment or meet legal obligations.
6. International processing
Because JM Forge Web Studio works remotely and may use international technology providers, information may be processed in countries other than the country in which you live. Appropriate provider safeguards and applicable legal requirements are relied upon where required.
7. Data retention
Enquiry and project information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for communication, project delivery, recordkeeping, dispute prevention and applicable legal obligations. Unneeded information may be deleted or anonymised.
8. Security
Reasonable organisational and technical measures are used to protect information. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
9. Your choices and rights
You may ask to access, correct or delete personal information held by JM Forge Web Studio, subject to legal and recordkeeping requirements. You may also ask us to stop non-essential communications. Privacy rights may vary by jurisdiction.

JM Forge Web Studio does not currently use advertising cookies on the core website. Essential technologies used by hosting, security or payment providers may still operate when their services are used. If analytics or additional cookie-based tools are introduced later, this policy will be updated as appropriate.
11. External links
The website may link to third-party websites or services. Their privacy practices are controlled by those third parties.
