Privacy Policy

1. Scope

This policy applies to 86engine.com, including its Chinese and English pages, and to information submitted through our website contact forms.

Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services. Those third parties have their own privacy policies and data practices, and this policy does not apply to their websites.

2. Information We May Collect

2.1 Information You Submit

When you contact us through the website, we may collect the following information:

2.2 Information Temporarily Processed for Security and Abuse Prevention

To reduce spam and automated abuse, the website may temporarily process network information such as IP addresses for rate limiting and security checks. Our current inquiry system does not retain the original IP address as part of the inquiry record.

2.3 Server and Infrastructure Logs

Hosting, network and security providers may automatically generate necessary technical logs, such as request time, accessed paths, network addresses, device or browser information. These logs are primarily used for website operation, security and troubleshooting.

3. How We Use This Information

We may use the information for the following purposes:

• Receive, validate and respond to your business inquiry;
• Understand project requirements and maintain necessary business communication;
• Maintain reasonable records of customer communication and project discussions;
• Protect the website and contact forms from spam, attacks or abuse;
• Troubleshoot website or form issues and improve reliability and usability;
• Meet necessary business, compliance or legal obligations as permitted by applicable law.

4. Storage, Transfer and Disclosure of Information

4.1 Storage of Inquiry Information

Valid inquiries are stored in our website administration system and may trigger an email notification so we can review and follow up promptly.

We retain relevant information for as long as reasonably necessary for business communication, customer service, project records and applicable legal requirements. When the information no longer serves a reasonable business or legal purpose, it may be deleted or otherwise cleared as appropriate.

4.2 Necessary Service Providers

To operate the website, we may use hosting, content delivery, email, DNS and other technical service providers. These providers may process relevant technical or business information only to the extent necessary to provide their services.

4.3 Disclosure of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may disclose relevant information only when reasonably necessary in circumstances such as:

• Providing website, email or other necessary technical services;
• Responding to your specific request or carrying out business communication initiated by you;
• Complying with applicable laws, courts or competent authorities;
• Protecting the legitimate rights, interests or safety of us, our users or third parties.

5. Cookies and Other Technologies

The current public website does not rely on advertising tracking or personalized marketing cookies as a core function, and we do not use the contact form to build advertising profiles.

Website infrastructure or third-party resources may still process necessary network and device information during normal loading and secure operation. If we later introduce analytics, advertising or other tracking that requires cookie consent, we will update this policy and provide appropriate choices or consent mechanisms where required.

6. Third-Party Resources and External Services

This website may use or link to third-party technical resources such as fonts, hosting, email or network infrastructure. When your browser accesses these resources, it may connect directly to the relevant provider and transmit technical information necessary to complete the request.

External websites you choose to visit are responsible for their own data practices. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies before providing personal information.

7. Data Security

We use technical and administrative measures appropriate to the size of the website and the type of data involved to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, misuse or loss. These measures may include form validation, rate limiting, access controls and other necessary system safeguards.

However, no internet transmission or information system can guarantee absolute security. If a security incident occurs that may materially affect personal rights or interests, we will take appropriate measures as required by applicable law.

8. Your Rights Regarding Personal Information

Depending on applicable law and the circumstances of the processing, you may contact us with requests relating to your personal information, such as:

• Asking whether we retain information you submitted through the website;
• Requesting correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
• Requesting deletion of relevant personal information where applicable;
• Withdrawing consent where processing is based on consent;
• Raising questions, comments or complaints about how personal information is handled.

To protect data security, we may reasonably verify your identity before handling a request. Certain information may need to be retained for legal obligations, dispute resolution or necessary business records.

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as website features, technical services or legal requirements change. The updated version will be published on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.

If we introduce features that materially affect personal information processing, such as new analytics, advertising tracking, CRM or other third-party services, we will review and update this policy accordingly.
