Who we are

This Privacy Policy explains how Vinrock LLC, a Texas limited liability company ("Vinrock," "we," "us," or "our") handles personal information through malvin.io and in connection with its product design services. Vinrock is responsible for that information. You can reach us at bitvinny@gmail.com.

Information we collect

Information you send us

When you email us or work with us, we receive the information you choose to share. This usually includes your name, email address, company, role, product details, project scope, timing, budget range, and anything in your messages or attachments. If you become a client, we also keep contracts, invoices, payment records, and project communications.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the site, our hosting provider automatically processes standard technical data needed to deliver pages and keep the site secure. This can include your IP address, browser and device type, the pages you request, the referring page, and the date and time of the request.

We do not use analytics tools, advertising pixels, session recording, or fingerprinting on this site.

Client project data

During a project, a client may give us access to its product, research, data, or tools. We handle that information as the client's confidential information under our agreement with that client, and use it only to perform the work.

How we use information

To reply to your messages and decide together whether a project is a good fit.
To prepare proposals, deliver Services, and manage the client relationship.
To send invoices, receive payments, and keep business, tax, and accounting records.
To operate, secure, and troubleshoot the website.
To comply with the law and to protect our rights, our clients, and the public.

We only send project and business emails related to a conversation you started or an engagement we have with you. We do not send marketing newsletters without your consent.

Legal bases (EEA, UK and Switzerland)

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we rely on these legal bases: taking steps at your request before entering a contract and performing a contract with you; our legitimate interests in responding to inquiries, running our business, and securing the site; complying with legal obligations; and your consent, where we ask for it. You may withdraw consent at any time.

Cookies & third-party services

This site does not set its own cookies or use browser storage to track you. Some content on the site is loaded from third-party services, which receive your IP address and basic browser information when your browser requests it:

Vercel hosts the site and processes server request logs.
Google Fonts serves the fonts used on the site.
Squarespace serves some case study images from its content delivery network.
Figma powers embedded interactive prototypes in some case studies. Figma may set its own cookies when an embed loads or when you interact with it.

Links to other sites, such as X, the App Store, or product websites, take you to services with their own privacy policies. We encourage you to read them.

We honor Global Privacy Control signals. Because we do not sell or share personal information for targeted advertising, there is nothing further to opt out of on this site.

We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We share it only as needed with:

Service providers that help us run the business, such as email, file storage, hosting, design and collaboration tools, invoicing, payment processing, and accounting. They may use the information only to provide their services to us.
Subcontractors working on a project, with the client's approval and under confidentiality obligations.
Professional advisors, such as lawyers and accountants, under duties of confidentiality.
Authorities or other parties when required by law, or when needed to protect rights, safety, or security.
A successor if Vinrock is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of its business, subject to this policy.

How long we keep information

Inquiries that do not lead to a project: up to 24 months, so we can follow up on the conversation, unless you ask us to delete them sooner.
Client contracts, invoices, and payment records: for as long as the law requires for tax and accounting purposes, typically up to 7 years.
Client project files and confidential information: for the length of the engagement, then returned or deleted as agreed with the client, except where we must keep copies by law.
Hosting logs: kept by our hosting provider for a limited period under its own retention settings.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

Know what personal information we hold about you and get a copy of it.
Correct information that is inaccurate.
Delete your personal information.
Object to or restrict certain processing, and receive your information in a portable format.
Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share it.
Withdraw consent you have given.

We extend these rights to everyone, whether or not a specific law requires it. To make a request, email bitvinny@gmail.com from the address you used to contact us. We may need to confirm your identity before acting, and we will respond within 45 days. You can use an authorized agent, and we will not treat you differently for exercising your rights. If we decline your request, you can appeal by replying to our decision and asking us to reconsider. We will respond to an appeal within 60 days.

This section explains the information required by the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act. In the past 12 months we have collected identifiers (such as name, email address, and IP address), professional or employment information (such as company and role), commercial information (such as project and payment records), and internet activity information (such as server request logs) from the sources described above, for the purposes described in "How we use information." We disclose this information for business purposes to the categories of recipients described in "How we share information." We do not sell or share personal information, and we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes that require a right to limit.

EEA, UK and Switzerland

You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority. We would appreciate the chance to address your concern first.

International transfers

Vinrock is based in the United States, and our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. When we transfer personal information from the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the standard contractual clauses our providers offer.

Security

We use reasonable safeguards to protect personal information, including encrypted connections to this site, access controls and two-factor authentication on business accounts, and limiting access to people who need it. No method of transmission or storage is fully secure, so please avoid emailing highly sensitive information unless we have agreed on a secure way to share it.

Children

This site and our Services are intended for businesses and adults. They are not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The new version will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. If a change is significant, we will make reasonable efforts to let active clients know.
