1. Scope

This Privacy Policy explains how quako, Inc. (“quako,” “we,” “us”) collects, uses, and discloses personal information in connection with this marketing website (quako.io) and its subdomains (excluding app.quako.io). It does not cover data that our customers submit to, or generate within, the quako application. That processing is governed by the applicable Order Form, not by this policy.

2. Information we collect from this site

quako.io is a static marketing site. We do not run analytics scripts, advertising pixels, or session-replay tools on it, and — outside the contact form described below — the site sets no cookies.

The only personal information this site collects is what you submit through the contact form at /contact:

Name
Business email address
Company name
The content of your message

We use this information solely to respond to your inquiry and, if you agree, follow up about quako. We do not sell this information.

3. Retention

We retain contact form submissions for up to 12 months from your most recent interaction with us, after which we delete or anonymize the record, unless a longer retention period is required to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims, or to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

4. Legal basis and your rights

Where the EU or UK GDPR applies, our legal basis for processing contact form submissions is our legitimate interest in responding to inquiries about our product and, where you have opted in, your consent to receive follow-up communications. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us at the address below.

5. Disclosure

We do not sell personal information collected through this site. We disclose it only to:

Service providers who host this website, deliver our contact form, and route sales inquiries, under contracts that restrict their use of the data to providing those services to us.
Professional advisors (legal, accounting) as needed.
Law enforcement or regulators, where required by law or a valid legal process.

6. Security

We apply administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the limited, low-sensitivity nature of the information this site collects. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children

This site is directed at business professionals evaluating quality management software. It is not directed at, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from, individuals under 16.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Effective” date at the top of this page reflects the date this version took effect.
