2. What we collect
a) Information you send us
When you submit our inquiry form or email us, we collect what you choose to provide:
- Name
- Email address
- Company name

- Files you attach, such as drawings, sketches or specifications (please do not attach documents containing more personal data than necessary)
We use this information only to respond to your inquiry, prepare quotations, and communicate about potential or ongoing business.
b) Technical data collected automatically
- WP Statistics: we use this privacy-friendly analytics tool to count page visits. It stores anonymized or hashed visitor data on our own server and does not use cookies for cross-site tracking.
- Google Analytics 4 (via Google Tag Manager): we use GA4 to understand how visitors use the site (pages viewed, approximate location, device type, referring source). GA4 sets cookies on your device. You can block these cookies in your browser settings or via your browser's "Do Not Track" signal.
c) Server logs
Our hosting provider keeps standard server logs (IP address, request time, pages requested) for security and abuse prevention.
3. Legal bases (for visitors from the EU/EEA/UK)
- Responding to your inquiry and preparing quotations: performance of a contract or steps prior to entering into a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
- Analytics and site security: our legitimate interest in operating and improving the website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
- Where consent is required (for example, non-essential cookies), we ask for it and you may withdraw it at any time.
4. Who we share data with
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with service providers who help us run the website:
- SiteGround (web hosting, EU/US data centers) - stores the website and server logs
- Zoho Mail (email service) - delivers your inquiry to our mailbox
- Google (Google Analytics 4) - aggregated analytics; data may be processed in the United States
These providers process data on our instructions under their own privacy terms. Inquiries may also be read by our sales staff in China.
5. International transfers
Our website is hosted outside the EU in some cases, and our company is located in China. If you are in the EU/EEA or UK, note that your data may be transferred to and stored in China or the United States. We rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the standard contractual clauses offered by our service providers, where applicable.
6. How long we keep data
- Inquiry emails and form submissions: kept for up to 24 months, then deleted, unless a business relationship follows (in which case records are kept as required by law and for the duration of the relationship).
- Server logs: kept for up to 90 days.
- Analytics data: kept according to the retention settings of the respective tool (GA4 default is 14 months).

- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Restrict or object to processing

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect and to request its deletion (CCPA). We do not sell personal information.
To exercise any right, email info@bopowdermetal.com. We will respond within 30 days.
8. Data security
We use HTTPS encryption for all traffic, keep the website software updated, and limit access to inquiries to authorized staff. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
