Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 2026
This privacy policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and what we do with it. We've kept it short and readable because nobody likes wading through legal fog.
Who We Are
HTMLforme builds and hosts websites for people who want to actually own their online presence. When we say "we," "us," or "our," we mean HTMLforme.
Information We Collect
Information You Give Us
When you fill out our contact form or email us, you provide:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Whatever you write in your message
We use this to respond to your inquiry and, if you become a client, to deliver our services.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, our server logs basic information when you visit:
- Your IP address
- Browser type
- Pages visited and when
We use this for basic security and to understand how people use our site (in aggregate, not individually).
Cookies
We keep cookies minimal. Here's what might be set:
- Essential cookies: If we use any session or security cookies, they're necessary for the site to function.
- Amazon affiliate cookies: Our self-hosting page includes Amazon affiliate links. If you click one, Amazon sets their own cookies to track the referral. We don't control those—see Amazon's privacy policy for details.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information to:
- Respond to your inquiries
- Provide services you've requested
- Send project-related communications
- Improve our website
We don't sell your information to anyone. We don't send marketing emails unless you've explicitly opted in.
Who We Share Information With
We may share information with:
- Service providers: Tools we use to run our business (email, hosting, etc.) may process your data on our behalf.
- Legal requirements: If required by law, we'll comply—but we'll push back on overreach where we can.
That's it. No data brokers, no advertisers, no shady third parties.
Data Retention
We keep contact form submissions and client communications as long as they're useful for our business relationship or legal compliance. If you want us to delete your data, just ask.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Object to certain processing
To exercise any of these, just contact us. We'll respond within a reasonable timeframe.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your information. Our site uses HTTPS, and we don't store sensitive data we don't need. That said, no system is perfectly secure—we're honest about that.
Children's Privacy
Our services are not directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect information from children.
Changes to This Policy
If we make significant changes, we'll update the "last updated" date at the top. For major changes, we may also post a notice on our homepage.
