Privacy Policy
Yo, let’s keep it real, this is my privacy policy for MadeWithPavan. I’m a straight-shooter WordPress designer with 8+ years grinding on sites, maintenance, and graphics. I respect your data like it’s my own hustle. This policy spells out what I grab, why, and how I protect it. If laws change or I tweak my game, I’ll update this and let you know.
Last check: September 12, 2025.

What Data I Collect
I only snag what I need to deliver killer work. No creepy overreach.
- Personal Basics: Name, email, phone stuff, you drop in forms for quotes, projects, or newsletters. If you’re a client, maybe billing details or site logins to build/fix your WordPress setup.
- Tech Stuff: IP address, browser type, device info, automatic from visits. Helps me spot issues like slow loads.
- Cookies & Tracking: My site uses cookies for basics like remembering your prefs or analytics (e.g., Google Analytics to see what’s clicking). No selling your data for ads.
- Project-Related: If we’re collaborating, files you share (like brand assets or content) stay secure and get deleted post-project unless you say keep ’em.
I don’t collect kids’ data or sensitive stuff like health/religion unless it’s part of a client gig (e.g., healthcare site design), and even then, it’s locked down.
How I Collect It
- Forms on my site (request form, newsletter signup).
- Emails or calls you initiate.
- Tools like WordPress plugins for security/speed, or third-party analytics (Google, etc.) they might grab anonymized stats.
- If I maintain your site, I access logs/backups, but only for the job.
All voluntary, don’t fill the form if you don’t want to share.
Why I Use Your Data
To get shit done:
- Deliver services: Build your WordPress site, handle maintenance, create graphics.
- Communicate: Send updates, questionnaires, or payment links.
- Improve my hustle: Analytics to make my site faster or spot trends (e.g., what niches need better templates).
- Legal: Comply with laws or handle disputes.
No spam. No selling your info. If I use it for marketing (like newsletters), you can opt out anytime.
Who I Share It With
I run solo or with trusted partners, but sharing is minimal:
- Payment processors (e.g., Stripe/PayPal) for that 50% upfront, they handle billing securely.
- Tools like hosting providers or WordPress plugins for backups/security.
- No third-party marketers. If laws require (e.g., subpoena), I’ll share only what’s needed.
For international folks: Data might cross borders, but I use GDPR/CCPA-friendly tools to keep it compliant.
How I Protect It
I treat your data like gold:
- Secure servers, encryption, firewalls.
- Regular backups and malware scans (part of my maintenance vibe).
- Access limited to me, no random hires peeking.
- If there’s a breach, I’ll notify you fast, as required by law.
But hey, no system’s bulletproof, use strong passwords on your end too.
Your Rights (Keep Control)
You’re the boss:
- Access: Ask what I have on you.
- Update/Delete: Fix errors or wipe your data (unless I need it for ongoing projects or legal reasons).
- Opt-Out: Unsubscribe from emails or cookies via browser settings.
- Complaints: Hit me first, or go to your local data authority (e.g., GDPR enforcers in EU).
Just email info@madewithpavan.com with your request, I’ll handle it quick, usually within 30 days.
How Long I Keep It
As long as needed:
- Client data: Until the project’s done, plus a bit for follow-ups (e.g., 1 year).
- Newsletter subs: Until you bail.
- Analytics: Anonymized and deleted after 26 months max.
When it’s done, I delete or anonymize it.
Cookies & Tracking Details
My site uses:
- Essential cookies: For logins or form saves.
- Analytics: Google Analytics tracks visits (IP anonymized).
- No retargeting ads here.
Manage via your browser or my cookie banner if I have one. More deets in a separate cookie policy if needed.
Kids’ Privacy
Under 18? Don’t submit data without a parent. I don’t target kids.
Changes to This Policy
If I update (e.g., new tools), I’ll post the new version here and email active clients. Check back often.
