Privacy.
johodigital is a ten-person studio in Dubai. We keep this simple, because our data practices are simple: this is a static marketing website with no accounts. The only personal information we receive is what you choose to send us through the contact form or by email — and, if you agree to it, anonymous usage statistics from Google Analytics (see section 6).
1. Who we are
This site is operated by johodigital, a software and AI studio based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. For anything in this policy — including any request about your data — contact us at abhilash.veettil@gmail.com. We are the controller of the personal information described below.
2. What this policy covers
It covers this website (joho.digital and its pages, including the AI Transformation Program page) and the contact form on it. It does not cover our separate products, such as formserve.io, which have their own terms and privacy notices, nor third-party websites we link to.
3. Information we collect
We do not sell your data and we do not use it for advertising or profiling. The information we receive is limited to:
- Contact form details. When you send a message, we receive the name, email address, and message text you enter. A hidden anti-spam field is also included so we can discard automated submissions.
- Direct email. If you email abhilash.veettil@gmail.com, we receive your email address and whatever you include in the message.
- Analytics — only if you accept. If you accept in the cookie banner, Google Analytics sets cookies and collects usage data about your visit. If you decline, none of this loads. See section 6.
- Standard server logs. Like any website, the server hosting this site and the services it relies on may record technical request data such as IP address, browser type, and the time of a request. This is used to operate and secure the site, not to identify you.
4. How we use it
We use the contact details you send only to read your enquiry, reply to you, and follow up about working together. We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for advertising. Our lawful basis is your consent and our legitimate interest in responding to people who reach out to us.
5. Who processes it for us
We keep our list of providers short and only use them to run the site and handle your message:
- Form delivery — formserve.io. Contact form submissions are sent to formserve.io (our own form product), which delivers them to us.
- Email. Our email provider delivers and stores the messages you send to us and our replies.
- Hosting. Our hosting provider serves the website and keeps standard access logs as described above.
- Web fonts — Google Fonts. The pages load fonts from Google's font servers, which means your browser requests them from Google and Google may receive your IP address as part of that request.
- Analytics — Google Analytics. If you consent, Google (as our processor) collects and processes anonymous usage data so we can see aggregate statistics about how the site is used.
6. Cookies and analytics
This site uses Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use it — but only if you agree. The first time you visit, a banner asks whether to allow analytics:
- If you accept, we load Google Analytics, which sets cookies (for example _ga and _ga_<id>) and collects usage data such as the pages you view, the approximate location derived from your IP address, and your device and browser type. This gives us aggregate statistics — not a way to identify you personally.
- If you decline, no analytics scripts load and no analytics cookies are set. Apart from remembering that choice, the site sets no cookies of its own.
You can change your mind at any time — — or clear this site's data in your browser. You can also opt out of Google Analytics on every website using Google's opt-out browser add-on. Google's handling of the data is covered by its privacy policy.
7. How long we keep it
We keep contact-form messages and emails for as long as needed to respond to you and to maintain a reasonable record of our correspondence, then delete them when they are no longer needed. You can ask us to delete your message at any time.
8. Your rights
You can ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information you have sent us, and you can object to us using it. To do any of these, email abhilash.veettil@gmail.com and we will respond within a reasonable time. Because we hold very little — essentially the messages you have sent us — these requests are usually quick to handle.
9. International transfers
We are based in the UAE, and some of the providers above (such as Google Fonts and our email and hosting providers) operate servers in other countries. Where your information is handled outside the UAE, it is handled by these providers under their own safeguards and privacy terms.
10. Children
This is a business website intended for an adult, professional audience. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our practices or providers change. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page. The version shown here is the current one.
