Privacy Policy

BURGTECH Solutions is a technology company. It builds software, data and AI systems for clients in Liberia, Cyprus, China and other countries, and runs BURGTECH Academy. BURGTECH Solutions is responsible for how personal data is handled.

You can reach us at hello@burgtech.org. This policy covers this website and the inquiries, Academy registrations, internship applications and chat messages that come through it.

We collect what you choose to send us, and little else.

• Inquiries, registrations and applications. Your name, email address, company, project type and message, plus any files you attach (up to 5 files, 5 MB each). Academy registrations use the same form.
• Internship applications. Your name, email address, phone number if you give it, country, university, level of study, discipline, links to your work, your motivation and your CV. Only our team can open them.
• Newsletter sign-up. Your email address.
• The chat assistant. The text of the messages you type to it. We do not keep chat conversations.
• Email you send us. Whatever you write, and your email address.
• Server logs. Our hosting providers record standard technical details for each request, such as IP address, browser type and the pages requested. We do not use these logs to build profiles of visitors.

We do not ask for payment card details, passwords or government ID numbers through this website. Please do not send them in an inquiry.

• To reply to your inquiry, scope your project and send you a proposal.
• To run Academy sessions: sending meeting links, and certificates where they are earned.
• To consider internship applications.
• To send the newsletter, only if you signed up for it.
• To keep the website secure and block spam and abuse.
• To keep a record of the work we do for clients.

We do not sell personal data, use it for advertising, or make automated decisions about you.

The public website does not set cookies and does not run analytics or advertising trackers. When BURGTECH staff sign in to the admin area, a sign-in token is kept in that browser. Visitors never receive one.

Links to other sites, such as Facebook, LinkedIn or WhatsApp, take you to services with their own privacy policies. If we ever add analytics, we will describe it here before it starts.

We use a small number of service providers. They process data on our behalf and only to provide their service.

• Vercel and Render host the website and its server.
• Neon hosts the database where inquiries and attached files are stored.
• Resend delivers the emails we send.
• Groq runs the AI model behind the chat assistant. It receives the text you type into the chat.

These providers operate in several countries, so your data may be processed outside the country where you live. We disclose personal data to others only when the law requires it or to protect our rights, and never to sell it.

Attachments are checked for type and size, then stored in our database. Only signed-in BURGTECH administrators can open them. We use them only to understand and quote your project.

• Inquiries and attachments: for as long as we need them to handle your request and keep a record of any work that follows.
• Newsletter address: until you ask us to remove it.
• Chat messages: not stored by us.

If you ask us to delete your data, we will, unless the law requires us to keep something. We will tell you if that applies.

• The website and its server are accessed over HTTPS.
• Messages and attachments can be opened only by signed-in administrators.
• Uploaded files are checked by type, content and size before they are accepted.
• The contact form limits how often one visitor can submit, and filters automated spam.

No system is perfectly secure. If we learn of a breach that affects your data, we will tell you.

You can ask us at any time to:

• tell you what personal data we hold about you and send you a copy,
• correct anything that is wrong,
• delete your data,
• stop using it for a purpose you object to, or
• unsubscribe from the newsletter (or withdraw any consent you gave).

Email hello@burgtech.org from the address you used. We aim to answer within 30 days. If you are not satisfied, you may also contact the data protection authority in your country.

Our services are for businesses and adults. If you believe a child has sent us personal data, tell us and we will delete it.

When we change this policy we will update the date at the top of the page. If a change affects how we use data you already gave us, we will tell you directly. The latest version is always on this page, next to our Terms of Service.
