Privacy Notice
Effective date: 24 April 2026
This notice explains how Hexdrift (“we”, “us”, “our”) handles personal data submitted through the contact form on this website. We are committed to handling that data responsibly and in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP) and, where relevant, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Saudi Arabia’s Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL).
1. Data controller
The data controller is Hexdrift Security Advisory, headquartered in India. For any privacy-related queries, contact us at info@hexdrift.com.
2. What data we collect
We collect only the information you provide when submitting our contact form:
- Name - to address you correctly in our response.
- Company name - to understand the organisational context of your enquiry.
- Email address - to send you our response.
- Phone number - optional; provided only if you choose to include it.
- Service interest - optional; helps us route your enquiry to the right team.
- Message content - the details of your enquiry.
We do not collect any special category data (such as health, financial, or biometric information) through this form, and we do not request it.
3. Why we collect it
The sole purpose of collecting this data is to receive, review, and respond to your enquiry. We do not use it for marketing, profiling, or any automated decision-making. We do not sell it, and we do not use it to build advertising audiences.
4. Lawful basis for processing
We process your data on the following grounds depending on your jurisdiction:
- Legitimate interests (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)) - responding to a business enquiry you initiated is a legitimate interest that does not override your rights.
- Consent / voluntary submission (DPDP Act, PDPL) - by completing and submitting the contact form, you consent to us using the provided data to respond to your enquiry.
6. How long we keep data
We retain enquiry data for as long as is necessary to respond to and follow up on your request - typically no longer than 24 months from the date of submission, unless a longer period is required by applicable law or a business relationship develops from the enquiry.
If you ask us to delete your data before that period, we will do so unless retention is required by law.
7. Security measures
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the data you submit - including encrypted transmission (HTTPS/TLS), access controls limited to staff who need to handle your enquiry, and secure email handling practices. As a cybersecurity advisory firm, we hold ourselves to a high standard in this regard.
8. Your rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights over your personal data:
- Access - request a copy of the data we hold about you.
- Correction - ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Erasure - ask us to delete your data where we no longer have a lawful basis for retaining it.
- Restriction - ask us to restrict processing in certain circumstances.
- Objection - object to processing based on legitimate interests.
- Withdrawal of consent - where processing is based on consent, withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
To exercise any of these rights, email us at info@hexdrift.com. We will respond within 30 days.
If you are located in the EU/EEA, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. If you are in India, you may raise a grievance under the DPDP Act once the Data Protection Board is operational.
