   use the website, such as which pages are viewed, roughly where visitors are from,
   the device and browser used and how they arrived. This information is collected

   IP address, browser type and the pages requested) for security and to keep the
   site running reliably.

The website has no user accounts, online payments or contact forms, and we don’t
ask for sensitive personal information.

Some of these providers may process data outside India.

## How long we keep information

We keep enquiry and project correspondence for as long as needed to serve you and
to meet tax, accounting and other legal requirements, and then delete it. Google
Analytics data is kept for the period set in our Google Analytics account (14 months
by default).

You can ask us to tell you what personal information we hold about you, or ask us
to correct, update or delete it. You can also withdraw consent you have given us,
