Privacy Notice
Last updated: 2026-08-03
Scelvara Lounge operates scelvaralounge.com and provides business services to its clients. This notice sets out the categories of personal information we process, the purposes and legal bases for that processing, the parties with whom information may be shared, and the rights you can exercise. If anything here is unclear, write to us at [email protected] and we will explain it.
Scope of This Notice
For the processing described below, Scelvara Lounge acts as the controller: we decide the purposes for which personal information is used and the means by which it is processed. This notice governs scelvaralounge.com, communications you send us, and the client-contact information handled during the provision of our services.
Please note that external services and websites linked from our pages are not covered here. When you leave scelvaralounge.com, the privacy practices of the destination apply, and those practices are set by the relevant operator rather than by us.
Information We Collect
Information provided by you includes contact details (name, email address, phone number), the organisation you represent, your role there, and whatever you choose to include in an enquiry or project brief. For active engagements we additionally hold invoicing information and the record of communications between us.
When a page on scelvaralounge.com is requested, our servers record standard technical details — IP address, browser and device characteristics, referral source, and which pages were served at what time. This is retained for operational security and to understand traffic patterns in aggregate. Neither special-category data (such as health, biometric or political information) nor information about children is collected by us.
Why We Process Your Information
We use personal information to respond to enquiries, prepare proposals, provide and administer the services agreed with you, issue invoices and collect payment, maintain business records, and communicate about the work in progress. We also use it to keep scelvaralounge.com secure and to comply with obligations imposed on us by law.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with equivalent legislation, we process on one of four grounds: to perform a contract with you or to take pre-contractual steps at your request; for legitimate interests such as business administration, service improvement and network security; to meet legal or regulatory requirements; or on the basis of consent, which we seek where it is mandated and which you may revoke at any time.
Storage, Cross-Border Transfers and How Long We Keep Data
Because our infrastructure and suppliers are not confined to a single jurisdiction, your information may be stored or processed in another country. For transfers out of the EEA or the UK to jurisdictions not covered by an adequacy finding, we put in place the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or an equivalent approved safeguard, supplemented by technical and organisational measures where warranted.
We retain personal information only for as long as the purpose that justified collecting it remains live. Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement are typically deleted or anonymised within a reasonable period; records relating to completed engagements are kept for the term of any applicable limitation period; and accounting records are kept for the period prescribed by tax and company law. When a retention period ends, information is deleted or irreversibly anonymised.
Rights Available to You
You are entitled, subject to the law that applies to you, to see what we hold, to correct it, to have it erased, to restrict or object to its use, to obtain it in a structured electronic format, and to withdraw any consent given. Residents of jurisdictions such as California have parallel rights of disclosure and opt-out; since we neither sell nor share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising, no opt-out is necessary in practice.
Requests should be sent to [email protected] and will be handled within the statutory deadline. Verification of identity may be required, particularly where the request concerns access or deletion, and we may ask for further detail if the request is unclear. Making a request costs you nothing and will not affect our dealings with you. Where you remain unsatisfied, you retain the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority.
Protecting Your Information; Amendments
Reasonable safeguards protect the information we hold — transport-layer encryption on scelvaralounge.com, role-based access limited to staff with a genuine need, and regular reassessment of the vendors we rely on. It would be misleading to promise absolute security, as no method of electronic storage or transmission is entirely without risk. Where an incident occurs and notification is legally required, we will notify.
Amendments will be published on this page, and the effective date noted. Please review it periodically. Continued use of scelvaralounge.com after a revision indicates acceptance of the updated notice; if a change is significant, we will not rely on that alone and will flag it more directly.
