Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026.
Introduction
instant connect respects your privacy. This policy explains how we handle personal information when you visit https://g020512.gitlab.io/instantconnect or use our digital business card, lead capture, and contact analytics features.
Information we collect
Depending on how you interact with us and the features you use, we may collect:
- Professional and contact information you provide for a digital card, such as your name, role, business name, email address, telephone number, and website links.
- Contact details and messages you choose to submit through lead capture or when contacting us.
- Technical and usage information, such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, and interactions with digital cards and links.
Only include information on a shared digital card that you are comfortable making available to people who can access its link. If you submit your details through someone’s card, those details are intended to be shared with that card’s owner.
How we use your information
We use information to:
- Provide digital cards, enable sharing, and deliver contact details submitted through lead capture.
- Provide engagement analytics to help card owners understand interactions with their cards.
- Respond to questions, provide support, and communicate about the service.
- Maintain and improve the service, prevent misuse, and meet applicable legal obligations.
Where applicable law requires a legal basis, we rely on providing a requested service, our legitimate interests in operating and securing the service, compliance with legal obligations, or your consent, as appropriate. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.
Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to support website functionality, remember preferences, and understand usage. Where required by law, we will request consent before using non-essential cookies or similar technologies.
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how features work.
Sharing and third parties
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with service providers that help us host, maintain, secure, and support the service, subject to appropriate confidentiality and data protection requirements. We may also disclose information where necessary to comply with the law or protect rights and safety.
Information on your digital card is available to people who access it. Contact details submitted through lead capture are shared with the relevant card owner, who is responsible for their own subsequent use of those details. Card owners should respect communication preferences and applicable privacy laws.
Our website and digital cards may link to third-party websites. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. If information is processed outside your country, we use safeguards required by applicable data protection law.
Data security and retention
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. No internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing the service, resolving disputes, and meeting legal requirements. When information is no longer needed, we delete it or anonymise it as appropriate.
Your rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information, restrict or object to its processing, and withdraw consent. You may also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
To make a request, contact us using the email below. We may need to verify your identity before responding. If your request concerns information held independently by a card owner after a lead submission, you may also need to contact that person directly.
