This page explains what information is collected on this website, how it is used, and the choices available to you.
Mariam Phashalishvili (“I,” “me” or “my”) respects your privacy and cares about protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use this website, why it is collected, and how it is handled.
The data controller responsible for the personal information described in this Privacy Policy is Mariam Phashalishvili, operating this website as an individual. Questions or requests relating to your personal information can be directed to [email protected].
When you use the contact form on this website, I collect the information you choose to provide. Your name and email address are required, so that I am able to identify you and respond; company/organization, topic and message are provided at your discretion and are not required to submit the form. I do not require any information beyond what is needed to respond to you.
This website may also automatically collect limited technical information, such as browser type, device type and general usage patterns, typically through standard analytics and cookies, in order to understand how the website is used and to improve it. See “Cookies” below for the current state of this website in that respect.
Information you submit through the contact form is processed in order to respond to your inquiry and, where relevant, to take steps at your request before entering into a potential service or collaboration agreement. Where appropriate, I may also rely on legitimate interests, such as managing business correspondence and responding to professional inquiries. If consent is required for a specific purpose, such as future marketing communications, I will request it separately.
Information submitted through the contact form is used solely to respond to your inquiry, understand the context of a potential collaboration, and communicate with you about the services, programs or topics you have asked about. It is not used for unrelated marketing purposes without your consent, and it is not sold to third parties.
Depending on where you are located, you may have the right to: access the personal information I hold about you; correct or update it; request its deletion; object to or restrict certain processing of it; and, where applicable, request transmission of your data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. To exercise any of these rights, simply reach out using the contact details on the Contact page or by email, and I will respond as promptly as possible.
If you are located in Georgia and are not satisfied with how a privacy request has been handled, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the State Audit Office of Georgia, which serves as the country’s supervisory authority for personal data protection.
Your information is not sold, rented or shared for advertising purposes. It may be shared with trusted service providers who help operate this website — for example, hosting providers, email providers or form-processing services — only to the extent necessary for them to provide those services. These providers may process your information only as necessary to perform their services and are not permitted to use it for their own independent purposes.
Information submitted through the contact form is retained only for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry and maintain a reasonable record of our communication, unless a longer period is required by law or you request earlier deletion.
At present, this website does not use non-essential cookies, advertising pixels or analytics tags. If that changes in the future — for example, if analytics or marketing tools are added — this section will be updated to describe what is used, why, and the choices available to you, and, where required, your consent will be requested first. Any cookies strictly necessary for the website to function are unaffected by browser cookie settings; you can control or disable other cookies through your browser at any time.
I take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information you share, appropriate to the nature of a website of this kind. However, no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure, and I cannot guarantee absolute security.
As this website is available internationally, your information may be processed in Georgia or in other countries where relevant service providers operate. Reasonable steps are taken to protect your information wherever it is processed.
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in practices or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, or would like to exercise any of the rights described above, please reach out via the Contact page or email [email protected] directly, noting that your message concerns a privacy matter.
