Registered address: UAE. For any privacy question, or to exercise your rights, contact hello@valtair.com.

What data we collect

If you submit the Discuss a product form, we collect the details you provide: your name, work email, company, role, a description of what you are building, your product stage, timeline, the capabilities you need, an estimated investment range, and any additional context.

When you subscribe to Valtair Signal

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address.

Technical data

Our servers process limited technical data, such as your IP address, to keep the site secure and to prevent spam and abuse. We do not use this to build a profile of you.

Cookies

This website currently uses only strictly necessary functionality and does not set analytics or advertising cookies. See our Cookie notice for details. If this changes, we will update that notice and, where required, ask for your consent.

How we use your data

• To respond to your inquiry and discuss a potential engagement.
• To provide, and where relevant contract for, our services.
• To send you Valtair Signal, if you have subscribed.
• To keep the website secure and prevent spam and abuse.
• To comply with our legal obligations.

Our legal bases (UK and EU visitors)

Where the UK GDPR or EU GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Legitimate interests: to respond to inquiries, and to run and secure our website. We balance these interests against your rights.
• Consent: to send you the newsletter. You can withdraw consent at any time using the unsubscribe link or by contacting us.
• Contract: where we take steps at your request before entering, or while performing, an engagement.
• Legal obligation: where we must process data to comply with the law.

Who we share it with

We share personal data with service providers who process it on our behalf, under contract and only as needed:

• HubSpot, our customer relationship platform, which stores contact-form submissions.
• Resend, our email provider, which stores newsletter subscribers and sends Valtair Signal and related emails.
• Vercel, our hosting provider, which operates the website and its infrastructure.

We do not sell your personal data. We may disclose data where required by law or to protect our rights.

International transfers

Some of our providers, including HubSpot, Resend, and Vercel, are based in the United States. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK or the EEA, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the EU-US and UK Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses. You can ask us for more detail.

How long we keep it

As a guide, we keep contact and inquiry data for up to 24 months after our last interaction, unless a longer period is required by law or by an ongoing engagement. Newsletter data is kept until you unsubscribe.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you have rights over your personal data. Under the UK and EU GDPR these include the rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent. Under laws such as California's CCPA and CPRA you have rights to know, delete, and correct personal information, and to opt out of its sale or sharing (we do not sell or share it in that sense).

To exercise any of these rights, email hello@valtair.com. You also have the right to complain to your data protection authority. In the UK this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit, access controls, and vendor review. See our Security page for more.

Children

This website and our services are intended for businesses and are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
