Privacy is very important at OrbisCode. We take this very seriously with our own business and with yours.

Please read our policy outlined below before you make any communication or project requests. This will ensure you are well informed about what happens to you data during these phases.

Communication

When you communicate with us over our website or via email, we will not disclose this data to any third-parties. When you communicate via both mediums, we only expect to receive your name and your email address unless otherwise requested. An example of a piece of information we may request is a phone number. However this will only be used for communication about the project, any updates or clarrifications on design and in situations where we need to reach you. This information will not be used for unsolicitered contact that has not been pre-agreed.

Project Builds

We build our projects from the ground up. However we also can enhance existing websites for clients. For us to be able to do so we will require details such as your current hosting provider, access to your created account with them (assuming you wish to stay with them) and permission to modify the web files existing. The details you provide to us will only be used for the purpose of the site build and discarded once the project is completed, unless in the situation where you wish to continue with our included maintenance plan. If you choose to stay with us for continued maintenance we will use the details provided to access the account as mentioned above while maintaining your privacy to only OrbisCode.

Site Visits

As with almost every hosting provider, our site records web visits anonymously. This data does not include any information about the visitor, only the fact that the site was visited by X number of people on X Day. You accept this term when visiting / using OrbisCode.

General Data Protection Policy (GDPR)

GDPR stands for General Data Protection Regulation. It's the core of Europe's digital privacy legislation. GDPR is a new set of rules designed to give EU citizens more control over their personal data. It aims to simplify the regulatory environment for business so both citizens and businesses in the European Union can fully benefit from the digital economy.

GDPR applies to all organizations which reside and process personal data in the EU States as well as businesses outside the EU providing services to people inside the EU.

As a resident of the EU you have a lot more control over your data since May 2018.

• Right to access your data.
• Right to have your data rectified, restricted or erased
• Right to move or transfer your data
• Right to object to the use of your data
• Right to information about the protection of your data

You can find more information about GDPR and your rights at citizens information.

What is a cookie policy?

This is a declaration to userds on what cookies are active on a website that you visit and what data is tracked.

Cookies at OrbisCode

At OrbisCode we do not set any cookies ourselves for marketing purposes, data tracking etc. At present, we do not currently advertise on our site but this may change in the future. This is why it is important to keep up to date with our policy during your visits with us. Do not worry though, we will keep you informed with updates to our policy and if we start using cookies then you will be notified and provided the option to OPT-IN or OUT.

However we do want to keep you informed about some of technologies that are used on this site which may create cookies when you visit. These are functional cookies and are needed for our site design and to work properly.

For some of the design of this site, we have implemented some libraries which gives us access to some features to use. For example a very common library used in the world of web development is called Bootstrap. This is a library which allows us to combine our design techniques with some of their styling properties to create some amazing looking profiles.

We also utilize a library called JQuery. This is a scripting library which we can combine our knowledge in Javascript to make some really cool effects. Finally we also utilize a library called FontAwesome - it really is! This is a library which allows us to use some great looking icons in our developments. These libaries are not hosted by us and may create a cookie for you. We do not have control over this. We would invite you to check out these artifacts for more information and privacy details. When something is 'Hosted' this means that this is not stored on our website. We request this data each time a page is loaded (depending on caching).

Let us just recap on a few key words that you just read. A 'Library' is a collection of precompiled/created routines that can be stored locally or remotely accessed. A 'script' is a piece of code that can be found in a library, or directly on a website.

By using our site you are consenting to the necessary cookies from the above mentioned libraries.
