How your information is used.

Who operates this website

This website is operated by Stanislav under the trading name By Stanislav. If you have a question about your information or want to exercise a privacy right, use the contact form.

Information you choose to provide

When you send a project enquiry, the website may collect your name, email address, optional company or organisation, selected project type, optional budget range, message and the page from which the enquiry was submitted.

When you intentionally submit a calculator estimate, the website also stores the project selections, calculated range, delivery range, pricing version, review flags and related timestamps. That estimate may be linked to the contact enquiry you submit with it.

Do not include passwords, payment-card details, confidential access credentials or information that is not needed to discuss the project.

Technical and security information

The hosting and application infrastructure may process ordinary request and security information, such as an IP address, browser or device details, requested pages, timestamps and error or security events. This information is used to operate, protect and troubleshoot the website.

Browser storage and essential cookies

The website uses essential session and security mechanisms required for forms, administration and normal operation. It also uses local browser storage to remember your Light, Dark or Auto theme preference and to preserve non-personal calculator progress after a refresh.

The calculator is designed not to place your name, email address or message in local storage.

No advertising cookies or behavioural tracking tools are currently used. If non-essential analytics or marketing tools are introduced later, this notice and the consent experience will be updated before they are enabled.

Why the information is used

Information is used only where there is a practical and lawful reason.

To respond to an enquiry

To review what you need, ask useful follow-up questions and take steps you request before any agreement is made.

To operate the calculator and private estimate

To calculate, save and display the project scope and the pricing version used when you intentionally submit an estimate.

To run and protect the website

To prevent misuse, diagnose faults, maintain security and keep reliable operational records.

To meet legal or administrative obligations

Where records must be retained or disclosed under applicable law, accounting requirements or a valid legal request.

Legal bases

Depending on the context, processing is based on taking steps at your request before a contract, performing an agreed service, legitimate interests in operating and protecting the website, or compliance with a legal obligation.

Who may process the information

Information may be processed by the hosting, infrastructure, database, security or email providers required to operate the website and respond to an enquiry. Access should be limited to what is necessary for the service being provided.

Information may also be shared with professional advisers or public authorities where this is reasonably necessary to protect legal rights or comply with law.

International processing

Some service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where that happens, reasonable contractual or legal safeguards should be used as required by applicable data-protection law.

How long information is kept

Enquiries and submitted estimates that do not become active work are normally kept for up to 24 months after the last meaningful contact, unless there is a clear reason to keep them for less or longer.

Records connected to agreed work may be retained for the period reasonably required for delivery, support, accounting, tax, dispute handling and other legal obligations.

Operational and security logs are normally retained for a shorter period according to infrastructure and security needs.

Information should be deleted or anonymised when it is no longer reasonably needed.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability or an objection to certain processing.

Use the contact form to make a request. Enough information may be required to confirm your identity before information is disclosed or changed.

You may also raise a concern with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office. This does not prevent you from contacting By Stanislav first so the issue can be understood and addressed.

Security

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect information, including controlled administration access, server-side validation, rate limiting, restricted database access and encrypted HTTPS connections.

No internet service can promise absolute security. Do not send secrets or credentials through the public enquiry form.

Changes to this notice

This notice may be updated when the website, service providers or legal requirements change. The current version and update date will remain available on this page.
