Privacy notice

5A Technologies determines why and how the personal data described in this notice is processed and is the controller for that processing.

The stated email address is the general privacy contact for 5A Technologies.

This notice applies to website visitors, people who submit the Contact form, and business contacts communicating about a possible engagement.

It does not describe separate processing for employees, existing customer files, suppliers, or newsletter subscribers.

The current Contact form asks only for the data needed to understand and answer a business request.

The hosting and security layer may also process necessary technical request data, such as the IP address, requested page, time, request headers, and security signals. These are not additional Contact-form fields.

Do not submit passwords, medical information, or other sensitive data that is not needed for your request.

We process Contact data only for the current business-communication and security purposes.

Depending on the context, processing may be necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a possible agreement. For ordinary business communication, security, and abuse prevention, 5A Technologies may rely on legitimate interests where your rights and interests do not override them. A legal obligation or the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims applies only where actually relevant.

The required Contact checkbox confirms that you have read this privacy notice and understand why the data is needed to respond. It is not consent to newsletters, marketing, analytics, or every possible use.

Only authorised persons within 5A Technologies and the service providers required for the current Contact chain may process the data.

No CRM is currently used for Contact submissions. 5A Technologies does not sell personal data, disclose it publicly, or use it for automated advertising.

Vercel, Resend, Combell, or their relevant subprocessors may process personal data outside the European Economic Area. Where required by the applicable rules, appropriate safeguards must be used, such as contractual data-protection arrangements or standard contractual clauses.

This draft does not claim that every processing operation remains in Belgium or the European Union and does not confirm that a specific DPA has been signed or retained for the current account. 5A Technologies must review and retain current processor terms, subprocessor lists, transfer information, and relevant provider settings.

For ordinary Contact inquiries and inactive prospects, the maximum is 24 months after the last substantive contact. At least annually, 5A Technologies reviews which messages are no longer needed. An ordinary expired inquiry is removed from the active mailbox; any copy in a later separately authorised CRM must also be removed.

A shorter period applies when the data is no longer needed earlier. A longer period may apply only for an active customer relationship, active proposal or negotiation, performance of an agreement, a statutory accounting or tax obligation, or the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.

The Contact application itself stores no form submission in a database, filesystem, cookie, or browser storage. Email transport and the receiving mailbox are separate external processing and retention layers.

5A Technologies uses appropriate technical and organisational measures for the current website and Contact chain. No internet service can guarantee perfect security.

Subject to the applicable conditions, you may request information, access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and portability. Not every request automatically results in erasure; a legal obligation, agreement, or legal claim may provide an exception.

Send a request to the privacy contact. Where reasonably necessary, 5A Technologies may ask you to verify your identity proportionately. Requests are handled within the applicable legal timeframe.

You may first contact 5A Technologies so that your concern can be reviewed. You retain the right to lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority.

Contact submissions are not used for automated individual decision-making or profiling.

Analytics is currently disabled. The current site does not intentionally activate advertising, marketing, or analytics cookies, and Contact data is not sent to analytics.

Necessary technical behaviour of the hosting layer is described only when actually observed. This draft notice does not activate analytics or add a cookie banner.

This notice must be updated when processing, service providers, or legal requirements change. An update is required before a CRM is introduced or analytics is activated.

No public effective or update date is stated during this local draft phase. That date will be added only after exact owner approval.
