The Operator commits to maintaining the confidentiality and security of personal data and to protecting the rights of data subjects.

2. Operator and Website Information

This Policy applies to all personal data the Operator may receive from visitors of the website backyard-tech.ru (hereinafter — the Website). Use of the Website constitutes unconditional acceptance of this Policy and the conditions of personal data processing. Visitors who do not agree must refrain from using the Website.

3. Categories of Personal Data Processed

The website backyard-tech.ru is purely informational in nature and does not contain forms for collecting personal data. The Website has no input fields for name, email address, phone number, or any other fields for collecting personal information.

Communication with the Operator is conducted through external services chosen by the visitor:

  • Telegram — direct messaging with the Operator (@oppa_papa)
  • Email — sending an inquiry to the address listed on the "Contact" page
  • LinkedIn — the Operator's professional profile

If a visitor voluntarily reaches out to the Operator through one of these channels, the processing of any personal data shared in such an inquiry is governed by this Policy. The Operator processes only the data that the visitor voluntarily provides in the inquiry (typically: name, contact channel, content of the question).

The Operator does not use third-party web analytics services (Google Analytics, Yandex.Metrica, or equivalents) on the Website, nor advertising pixels or tracking systems.

Technical cookies used by the Website are strictly functional (storing user interface preferences, theme switching) and do not contain personal data.

4. Purposes of Processing

The Operator processes personal data voluntarily provided by the visitor when initiating communication through one of the available contact channels (Telegram, email, LinkedIn), exclusively for the following purposes:

  1. Reviewing inquiries received by the Operator
  2. Preparing commercial proposals and responses to inquiries
  3. Concluding and executing service agreements

Personal data is not used for marketing purposes, not shared with partners for advertising mailings, not used for automated decision-making with legal effects on the data subject.

5. Legal Basis for Processing

Processing of personal data is based on the following legal grounds:

  • Consent of the data subject (Article 6(1)(1) of FZ-152) — expressed through the subject's initiative in sending an inquiry to the Operator via one of the contact channels listed in section 3. The act of sending an inquiry containing personal data constitutes consent to its processing for the purposes set out in section 4.
  • Conclusion and execution of a contract to which the data subject is a party (Article 6(1)(5) of FZ-152) — for inquiries leading to commercial cooperation.

6. Order and Conditions of Processing

Personal data is processed both with and without the use of automation.

Processing includes the following actions: collection, recording, systematisation, accumulation, storage, clarification (updating, modification), retrieval, use, transfer (provision, access), blocking, deletion, destruction.

7. Transfer of Personal Data to Third Parties

The website backyard-tech.ru does not transfer personal data to third parties, as it does not collect such data through forms. Since the visitor independently chooses the communication channel (Telegram, email, LinkedIn), the processing of personal data within those services is governed by the policies of their respective providers:

  • Telegram — Telegram FZ-LLC (UAE), terms
  • Email — the Operator's email provider (Yandex 360 / Google Workspace)
  • LinkedIn — LinkedIn Corporation (USA)

When an inquiry is received through any of these channels, the Operator processes the inquiry data exclusively within the framework described in this Policy and does not transfer it to other third parties, except in cases directly stipulated by Russian Federation legislation (lawful requests from state authorities).

8. Storage Periods

Personal data is stored for the period necessary to achieve processing purposes, but no longer than:

  • 3 (three) years from the date of the last interaction with the subject — for inquiries that did not lead to contract conclusion
  • 5 (five) years from the date of contract termination — for data related to contract performance (in accordance with tax and accounting legislation requirements)

Upon expiration of the specified periods, personal data is subject to destruction.

9. Data Protection Measures

The Operator applies the following organisational and technical protection measures:

  • Storage of personal data in secured systems with restricted access
  • Use of secure data transmission channels (HTTPS/TLS)
  • Designation of a person responsible for organising personal data processing (the Operator)
  • Regular review and revision of this Policy
