Privacy Policy
This policy explains what personal information PagelySites collects, why, who we share it with, and the choices you have. We wrote it in plain English. If anything is unclear, email us at pagelysites@gmail.com.
Who we are
PagelySites (“PagelySites”, “we”, “us”) builds simple one-page websites for small businesses. PagelySites is operated by Yehoshua Cohen, [PLACEHOLDER: company or dealer number], based in Israel.
- Address: [PLACEHOLDER: business address]
- Email: pagelysites@gmail.com
- X: @ShuiCohen
- LinkedIn: Yehoshua Cohen
- Phone: available on request
We are the “controller” (in Israeli law, the “database owner”) of the personal information described here.
The short version
- We collect only what you give us (plus basic technical logs) so we can reply to you, quote, build, host and support your page.
- We don’t sell your information. We don’t share it for advertising and don’t use advertising or analytics trackers.
- Your information is stored with trusted service providers, mainly in the United States.
- You can ask us to see, correct or delete your information at any time.
What we collect
1. Information you give us
| Where | What |
|---|---|
| Contact form | Name, email, and your message |
| “Start your page” form (/start) | Your name, business and city, phone, what you have today, services you offer, the actions you want on the finished page, logo and photo notes, style preferences (colours, type, layout, things to avoid), hours, domain status, and notes |
| Uploads on /start | Photos, logos, resumes, spreadsheets, and other files you choose to send (up to 20 files, 3.5 MB each and 3.5 MB together: images, PDF, Word, Excel, CSV, or text). These may show people, your premises, your products, or business documents. Only upload files you have the right to use. |
| Email, and phone if you ask us to call | Anything you send us while we work together |
| Client dashboard (“Desk”) | The email address you log in with, and login/session records |
| Payments | Name, email, billing details and payment status. Your card or bank details are entered on our payment provider’s page (PayPal) and are never seen or stored by us. |
Providing information is voluntary. No law requires you to give it to us. But if you don’t provide contact details and a basic brief, we can’t reply, quote or build your page.
2. Information collected automatically
- Server logs: When you visit our site, our hosting provider automatically records technical data. This includes IP address, browser type, pages requested and the date/time. We use it for security, debugging and keeping the site running.
- Fonts: Our site loads fonts from Google Fonts. Your browser therefore sends your IP address to Google when you load a page.
- Cookies: See “Cookies” below. We do not use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies.
3. Information about your customers
The pages we build usually send visitors to you by phone, email, or a link you choose. We don’t add a contact form or backend unless a Quote says so. If we do hold information about your customers, you are responsible for your own privacy notice to your visitors. We act only as your service provider for that data.
Why we use it
- To reply to your enquiry and send you a quote
- To design, build, publish, host and maintain your page (this is performing our agreement with you)
- To send invoices and collect payment, and keep records the law requires (e.g. tax/bookkeeping)
- To give you access to Desk and keep it secure
- To show your finished page in our portfolio/examples, only with your permission (see our Terms)
- To protect our rights, prevent fraud and abuse, and comply with law
We don’t add you to a marketing newsletter unless you opt in. Any message we send about an active enquiry or project is a service message.
Who we share it with
We share information only with service providers who help us run PagelySites. They may use it only to provide their service to us:
| Provider | What they do for us | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Vercel Inc. | Website hosting, server logs, form handling | USA (global network) |
| Supabase Inc. | Database for enquiries and projects, file storage for uploads, Desk login emails | USA |
| Google LLC | Email (Gmail) and web fonts | USA |
| PayPal | Processing payments, invoices and subscriptions | Global |
| Domain registry | If we register a domain for you, the registry requires the owner’s contact details | Wherever that registry stores them |
We may also share information:
- with our accountant or legal advisers, under confidentiality;
- if the law requires it, or to protect our rights or someone’s safety;
- with a buyer or successor if PagelySites is sold or reorganised (we’ll tell you first).
We do not sell personal information, and we do not “share” it for cross-context behavioural advertising.
International transfers
We are based in Israel and our clients are mostly in the United States. Our main service providers store data in the United States. When we transfer information outside Israel, we rely on the providers’ data-protection commitments (such as their data processing agreements) and on your consent when you submit our forms, as Israeli law permits.
How long we keep it
- Enquiries that don’t become projects: up to 24 months, then deleted.
- Client project files (brief, photos, content): for as long as we build, host or support your page, plus 12 months, unless you ask us to delete them sooner.
- Invoices and payment records: for as long as tax and bookkeeping law requires (in Israel, generally 7 years).
- Server logs: kept for the provider’s standard retention period (typically days to weeks).
How we protect it
We use reputable providers with encryption in transit and at rest. Database access is restricted with row-level security and is limited to us. Admin accounts use strong passwords. No system is perfectly secure. If a security incident significantly affects your information, we will tell you and the authorities as the law requires.
Your rights
Wherever you live, you can ask us to:
- see the personal information we hold about you;
- correct or update it;
- delete it (we may keep what the law requires, such as invoices);
- stop any marketing messages.
Email pagelysites@gmail.com with “Privacy request” in the subject. We’ll reply within 30 days. We may need to confirm your identity first. We will never treat you differently for using these rights.
Israel: These rights include your rights of access and correction under the Israeli Privacy Protection Law, 5741-1981. You may also complain to the Israeli Privacy Protection Authority (gov.il).
California and other US states: Based on our size, we are generally not subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) or similar state laws. We still honour the requests above for everyone. In the past 12 months we collected the categories listed in “What we collect” (identifiers, contact details, commercial information, and images/files you upload). We used them only for the purposes above. We have not sold or shared personal information, and we don’t knowingly collect sensitive personal information.
Do Not Track: Our site doesn’t track you across other websites, and we don’t allow third parties to do so. Because of this, we don’t change anything in response to browser “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control signals. There’s nothing to switch off.
Cookies
We only use cookies and similar browser storage that are strictly necessary:
- to keep you logged in to Desk, and to keep it secure;
- for our hosting provider to deliver the site securely.
We don’t use analytics, advertising or social-media tracking cookies. If that ever changes, we’ll update this policy and ask for consent where required.
Children
Our services are for businesses. We don’t knowingly collect information from anyone under 16. If you think a child sent us information, contact us and we’ll delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes, we’ll update the “Last updated” date above. If you’re a current client, we’ll also let you know by email.
