Introduction
Smart Contract Information Technology respects the privacy of visitors to
smartcontract.sa and people who contact us about cybersecurity, compliance and
technology services. This policy explains what information we may collect, why we use
it, how we protect it and the choices available to individuals.
It applies to the website, service pages, Knowledge Center, contact and careers forms, and digital tools operated as part of the website. Contracted services may be governed by separate agreements containing additional confidentiality and data-processing terms.
Information we may collect
Information provided directly may include a name, company, email address, mobile number, service of interest and message. Careers submissions may include the position, experience, LinkedIn profile, cover letter and CV.
Technical systems may collect limited operational information such as IP address, browser and device type, visited pages, visit time, referral source and website events. This information supports operation, security, performance measurement and user experience improvement.
Website forms are not intended for passwords, payment details or highly sensitive technical secrets. Sensitive or unnecessary personal information should not be sent before a suitable secure channel and processing scope have been agreed.
How information is used
We use information to respond to enquiries, understand business requirements, arrange consultations, define an initial service scope, maintain commercial correspondence, evaluate employment and internship applications, improve content, protect the website against abuse and satisfy legitimate legal and contractual requirements.
We do not sell personal information. Information submitted for one purpose is not used for an incompatible purpose without an appropriate basis or notice.
Contact forms
Contact form data is transmitted to our systems or email provider for delivery to
[email protected]. It is used to review the request, contact the sender and
maintain relevant follow-up records. Correspondence may be retained for a period
appropriate to the request, business relationship and applicable requirements.
Forms may use field validation, a honeypot, rate limiting and Google reCAPTCHA. Google may process technical data required to provide reCAPTCHA under its own policies.
Careers and internship applications
Application information is used to evaluate suitability, contact applicants and administer recruitment. Access is limited to employees or advisers who need the information for recruitment purposes. Applicants should avoid including unnecessary sensitive information in a CV.
Applications may be retained for a reasonable period to consider future opportunities or meet administrative and legal needs, unless deletion is requested and can lawfully be completed.
Cookies and analytics
The website may use cookies or similar technologies necessary for operation, security and performance measurement. Google Analytics 4 may be used to understand visits, pages and events statistically. Google Tag Manager may manage approved measurement tags. Identifiers are supplied through environment configuration and these services may not be active at all times.
Users can manage cookies through browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some website functions or measurement. Google services are also governed by Google's terms and privacy policies.
WhatsApp and external links
The website links to WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Instagram, X and other external services. Opening an external service transfers the interaction to its operator, whose privacy policy and terms apply. Smart Contract does not control how an external service processes information.
Users should not send credentials, security secrets or confidential files through public messaging channels. A secure exchange method can be requested when necessary.
Service providers and disclosures
We may share the minimum required information with hosting, email, analytics, spam prevention and technical-support providers, or professional advisers, when necessary to operate the website or fulfil the disclosed purpose. Access is limited according to need and practical security considerations.
Information may be disclosed when required by applicable law or a binding request from a competent authority, or when reasonably necessary to protect rights, security and prevent fraud or abuse.
Information security
We apply administrative, technical and organisational measures appropriate to the information, including access control, encrypted communications, email protection, updates, monitoring, backup, data minimisation and need-to-know access. No transmission or storage method can guarantee absolute security, but risks are reviewed and treated within reasonable capabilities and obligations.
Users remain responsible for selecting an appropriate communication channel and not submitting information that the request does not require.
Retention
Information is retained for as long as necessary for its purpose, relationship management, dispute handling, protection of rights and legal, accounting or security obligations. Periods differ by record and interaction. When information is no longer required, it is deleted or de-identified where appropriate and feasible.
Individual rights
Subject to applicable Saudi Arabian law, individuals may have rights relating to awareness, access, correction, destruction and withdrawal of consent where consent is the processing basis. Exceptions and legal retention duties may apply. We may need to verify identity and identify the relevant information before completing a request.
Requests can be sent to [email protected].
Children
The website and services are directed to businesses and professionals. We do not knowingly target the collection of children's data. If such information is identified without an appropriate basis, reasonable steps will be taken to address or delete it.
Updates and contact
This policy may be updated to reflect legal, service or technical changes. The current version and update date will be published on this page. Privacy questions may be sent to [email protected].
