Privacy Policy for the OCTRuTA Website
This Privacy Policy explains how Needham Ventures, LLC ("Needham Ventures," "we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with our marketing website at octruta.com (the "Website").
This policy covers the Website only. The OCTRuTA application — our calendar app, booking pages, and related services — is governed by a separate Privacy Policy, which applies whenever you create an account or use the app.
By using the Website, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.
1. Our Approach
The Website is an informational marketing site. It is built to be privacy-protective by default: it does not use analytics, advertising, tracking technologies, or tracking cookies, and it does not require you to create an account or provide personal information to browse it. We collect very little, as described below.
2. Information We Collect
a. Technical and log data (via our hosting and delivery providers).
Like virtually all websites, when you visit the Website, our hosting platform (Lovable.dev) and our content-delivery and security provider (Cloudflare) automatically process basic technical information needed to deliver the site and keep it secure. This may include your IP address, browser type and version, device and operating-system information, the pages you request, and the date and time of your request. This information is used for delivering content, maintaining performance, and protecting against malicious traffic — not to build a profile of you.
b. Information you send us directly.
If you choose to email us (for example, at the address in Section 9), we receive your email address and whatever information you include in your message. We use it only to respond to you.
We do not knowingly collect any other personal information through the Website.
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Website does not intentionally set cookies for tracking, analytics, or functionality from its own code.
However, technical cookies may be set by the infrastructure that serves the Website:
- Cloudflare may set strictly necessary technical cookies for security and performance — for example, to distinguish automated traffic from human visitors, mitigate attacks, and maintain reliable delivery.
- Our hosting platform's preview environment may set similar technical cookies.
These cookies are used for security and to operate the Website, not to track you across sites or for advertising. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, although doing so may affect how some sites function.
4. How We Use Information
We use the limited information described above to:
- Deliver, operate, secure, and maintain the Website;
- Protect against fraud, abuse, and security threats; and
- Respond to inquiries you send us.
5. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for targeted advertising. We share information only as follows:
- Service providers who operate the Website on our behalf, namely Lovable.dev (website hosting) and Cloudflare (content delivery and security), which process technical data as described above.
- Legal and safety reasons — to comply with applicable law, enforce our terms, or protect the rights, safety, and property of users, the public, or Needham Ventures.
- Business transfers — in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to this Policy.
6. Third-Party Links
The Website may link to third-party destinations, such as the Apple App Store, the Google Play Store, or the OCTRuTA application. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and this Policy does not apply to them. Please review their policies separately.
7. Data Retention
We retain the limited technical and log data described above only for as long as needed for the security, performance, and operation of the Website, or as required by law. Email correspondence is retained for as long as needed to address your inquiry and for our reasonable record-keeping.
8. Security
We rely on reputable infrastructure providers and industry-standard protections, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections, to help protect the Website and the limited information it processes. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Your Rights and Contact
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of personal information we hold about you, and to object to certain processing.
California residents (CCPA/CPRA): We do not sell or "share" personal information as those terms are defined under California law, and we do not use it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
To exercise any right, or for any privacy question about the Website, contact us at privacy@octruta.com.
10. International Users
We are based in the United States, and the Website is operated from and hosted in the United States and other locations where our providers operate. If you access the Website from outside the United States, you understand that your technical information may be processed in the United States and elsewhere.
11. Children's Privacy
The Website is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them through the Website. If you believe a child under 16 has provided us personal information, contact us at privacy@octruta.com and we will delete it.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and post the revised Policy on the Website. Your continued use of the Website after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
