Privacy

Browsing this site does not identify you to us. There are no cookies, no analytics, no advertising pixels, no session recording, no fingerprinting and no third-party scripts of any kind. We learn nothing about you unless you choose to contact us.

There is therefore no cookie banner. Not because we have decided one is unnecessary, but because there is nothing for it to ask you about.

pyratelabs is not a company. It is the working name of one person, who designs and builds everything here and runs this site on their own account. There is no registered entity behind the name, no staff, and nobody else with access to anything you send.

That person is the controller of any personal data described on this page. inquiry@pyratelabs.com reaches them directly — not a shared inbox, not a ticketing system, and not an assistant.

A sole operator's business address is their home address, so it is not published here. If you need the operator's full legal name and postal address — to make a data-protection request, to serve a notice, or for any other reason where it genuinely matters — ask at that email address and it will be given to you. That is an undertaking, not a formality.

One thing. When you tick services on the catalogue pages, that selection is kept in your browser's session storage so it survives moving between pages and is still attached when you reach the contact form. It is first-party, it never leaves your device, we cannot read it, and your browser discards it when you close the tab.

Session storage is not a cookie: it is not sent with any request, so it cannot be used to recognise you.

There are two ways to reach us and both are yours to start.

The enquiry form is hosted by Tally, a third party, and opens on their site. What you type there is processed by Tally on our behalf and passed to us; their own privacy notice governs how they handle it, and we link out rather than embedding them so that nothing of theirs loads on this site unless you go.

The email route opens your own mail application with a message already written. Nothing is sent until you send it, and it goes from your mail provider to ours without touching this site at all.

We keep what you send for as long as it takes to answer you and to keep a record of work discussed. Ask us to delete it and we will.

Why we are allowed to hold it: because you asked us to. Answering an enquiry and taking the steps you have asked for before any agreement is made is the basis for the reply itself; keeping a record of what was discussed afterwards rests on our legitimate interest in knowing what we have promised to whom. Neither basis survives your objecting to it, and objecting is one email.

Two services outside your country are involved, and it is worth knowing which. Cloudflare serves the pages, from whichever of its locations is nearest to you. Tally hosts the enquiry form; it is based in Belgium and states that what you submit is stored in Europe, encrypted in transit and at rest.

If that is a problem for you, use the email route instead. It goes from your mail provider to ours and touches neither this site nor Tally at any point.

The site is served by Cloudflare, which necessarily processes the network request your browser makes — including your IP address — in order to deliver the page, and keeps short-lived operational logs for security and abuse prevention.

The typefaces come from Google Fonts, but your browser never contacts Google: the font files are downloaded when the site is built and served from our own domain. No request leaves for a third party while you read this page.

There is no embedded video, no map, no chat widget, no font CDN and no tag manager. Each of those would have been a request to somebody else made on your behalf without asking you.

Where data protection law applies to you — the UK GDPR and EU GDPR, and the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law among others — you may ask us for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, object to our processing it, or ask for it in a portable form. Write to us and we will answer within the period your law allows, and at no charge.

You may also complain to your national supervisory authority. We would rather you came to us first, but it is your right either way.
