Privacy Policy

When you submit the contact form on this website, we collect the information you enter: your name, email address, phone number, business name (if provided), business stage, area of interest, and any additional message you include. We do not require you to provide more than your name and email to submit an inquiry.

When you visit this website, our hosting infrastructure automatically records certain usage data: your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and timestamps. This data is collected as a standard function of web server operation and is used solely to maintain and improve the website.

This website uses only strictly necessary operational cookies by default. We do not deploy advertising cookies, cross-site tracking cookies, or behavioral profiling scripts. As of the date of this policy, no third-party analytics service is active on this website. If analytics is introduced in a future update, this policy will be updated to name the service and describe the data collected.

We use the information you submit through the contact form to respond to your inquiry and, where relevant, to prepare a consulting proposal. If you become a client, we use your information to deliver and administer the services described in your engagement letter.

We use server-side usage data to maintain the security and performance of the website and to understand general usage patterns. This data is not used to build individual user profiles.

Our lawful bases for processing are: your consent (where you voluntarily submit the contact form); contractual necessity (to fulfill an engagement you enter into with us); compliance with legal obligations; and legitimate interests (to operate and improve the website, to respond to inquiries, and to keep records of our business activities).

We share personal information only with the service providers necessary to operate this website and communicate with you. Those providers are:

— A third-party email delivery provider (US-based): When you submit the contact form, a notification containing your submission data is sent to us via this provider. The provider processes your data solely to transmit that notification.

— A third-party hosting provider (US-based): This website is hosted on infrastructure operated by this provider. Your usage data and submitted form data pass through and are stored on their infrastructure in accordance with their data processing terms.

— A third-party email mailbox provider (US-based): Our inbound business email is handled by a US-based email service. Replies to your inquiry and subsequent email correspondence are transmitted through that service.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We may disclose information if required to do so by law, regulation, valid court order, or subpoena, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Layner Corporation or others.

This website sets only the cookies required for its core operation (for example, to remember your language preference). No advertising or tracking cookies are set.

As of the date of this policy, no third-party analytics platform is active on this website. When the site is updated to include analytics, we will update this policy to name the analytics provider, identify what data is collected, and describe whether any opt-out mechanism is available.

We retain lead inquiry data (contact form submissions and related correspondence) for up to 24 months from the date of your last contact with us. After that period, data that is no longer needed for a legitimate business purpose is deleted or anonymized.

If you become a client, records related to your engagement are retained in accordance with applicable Pennsylvania and IRS record-keeping requirements, which typically require retention for a minimum of seven years from the close of the engagement. Retention periods may be extended if a legal hold is in place.

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) gives you the right to know what personal information we have collected about you, to request deletion of that information, to request correction of inaccurate information, and to opt out of any sale or sharing of your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. Layner does not sell personal information and does not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with comprehensive privacy legislation (including GDPR), you may have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and objection to processing where our lawful basis is legitimate interests.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at laynercorporation@gmail.com with "Privacy Request" in the subject line. We will respond within 30 days. We may need to verify your identity before processing a request. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

This website and our services are directed exclusively to businesses and adult individuals in a business capacity. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16 years of age. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a minor, please contact us immediately at laynercorporation@gmail.com and we will delete it promptly.
