What we collect
What information reaches us.
Contact form. If you submit the form, we receive the information you enter: your name, work email address, company, company stage, what is driving the need, any engagement you selected, and your message. We use it for one purpose: understanding your request and responding to you.
Direct email. If you email [email protected], we receive your message and address and use them to reply.
Call booking. If you use our optional Google Calendar booking link, the booking page asks for your name and email and records the time you choose. We use those details to schedule and hold the call. Please send your scope through the contact form or direct email; the booking page does not ask for it.
Abuse protection. The form is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, which evaluates technical signals from your browser to distinguish people from bots. Turnstile is loaded from Cloudflare and processes data under Cloudflare's privacy policy. We see only the pass/fail result, never the signals.
Standard server logs. Our hosting and network providers record short-lived technical logs (such as IP address, requested URL, and user agent) to operate and protect the service, as virtually every website's infrastructure does.
What we do not do. No advertising, no analytics trackers, no tracking cookies, no social pixels, no selling or renting of personal information. Fonts are served from this domain, so viewing the site sends no font request to third parties.
Who processes it
The providers we use.
Specters is a United States–based consultancy, and information you send is processed in the United States by these infrastructure providers acting on our behalf:
GitHub Pages hosts this static website. Cloudflare provides DNS, network delivery, Turnstile verification, the service that relays form submissions, and routing of email sent to our domain. Formspree delivers validated form submissions to our inbox. Google Workspace hosts our business email and optional Google Calendar call booking.
Each provider receives only what its role requires, and none of them is permitted to use your inquiry for its own purposes beyond operating the service.
Retention. Inquiries are kept for as long as needed to handle the conversation and any resulting engagement, and for reasonable business record-keeping afterward. You can ask us to delete an inquiry at any time.
Your choices
Questions or requests about your data.
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you have sent us, and you can ask us to stop contacting you, by emailing [email protected]. We respond to every verified request; where privacy law such as the GDPR or a US state privacy law grants you specific rights, we honor those rights.
For visitors in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom: we process inquiry data on the basis of our legitimate interest in responding to business inquiries you initiate, and we retain it as described above. You may also lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
If we change this notice, we will update this page and its effective date. Material changes will be noted here plainly.
