Privacy policy

This policy covers appforged.cc. Each of our apps has its own privacy policy, linked from its page.

AppForged LTD is the controller of the personal data described here, registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) under number ZC282272. You can contact us at support@appforged.cc. Our company details are on the legal page.

What we collect, and why

Contact and support forms. Your name, email address and message, plus anything else you choose to tell us (company, project type, budget range). We use it to reply to you and, if we work together, to manage that work. Our lawful basis is your request to be contacted, or steps towards a contract with you.

Beta waitlists. Your email address, which app you’re interested in, and a record of when you agreed and the wording you agreed to. We use it only to email you about that app’s beta and launch. Our lawful basis is your consent, which you can withdraw at any time using the unsubscribe link in any email or by writing to us.

Spam protection. Our forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to check that a person, not a bot, is sending them, using signals from your browser and without tracking cookies. It loads only when you start filling in a form. Our server also sees your IP address when you send a form, and uses it briefly to stop the same address sending too many messages. We don’t store it.

Visitor statistics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts page views without cookies and without identifying you.

Your colour theme. If you pick a colour theme, your browser remembers it on your device (in local storage). It never leaves your device.

We don’t use advertising, tracking cookies or social-media pixels, and we never sell your data.

Who else handles it

• Cloudflare hosts this website, provides Turnstile and Web Analytics, and forwards email sent to our appforged.cc addresses.
• Resend sends form messages to our inbox and holds the beta waitlists, stored in the EU (Ireland).
• Google hosts the inbox (Gmail) that our form messages and email to support@appforged.cc arrive in.

All three act on our instructions. Where they process data outside the UK, they do so under the safeguards UK data protection law requires.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiries and support messages for up to 24 months after our last contact, unless we’re working together, in which case we keep them for as long as the law requires us to keep business records. We keep waitlist entries until you unsubscribe, or for 12 months after the app launches, whichever comes first.

Your rights

You can ask us for a copy of your data, or ask us to correct it, delete it or stop using it. Write to support@appforged.cc and we’ll reply within one month.

If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
