Privacy, terms & cookies.

Who we are

GitFoundry is a UK-based web studio operated by Azhar, based in Stoke, Staffordshire. For any privacy-related enquiry, contact [email protected].

What data we collect

We collect only what is necessary to respond to your enquiry and deliver your project:

• Your name and email address (from the project brief form)
• Details you provide about your project
• Analytics data via Google Analytics (anonymised IP, browser type, pages visited)

How we use it

Personal data is used only to reply to your enquiry, deliver the service you've commissioned, and comply with our legal obligations (e.g. tax records). We do not sell your data. We do not share it with third parties except where required by law.

Your rights under UK GDPR

You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time. Contact us at [email protected] and we will respond within 30 days.

Data retention

Enquiry data is retained for 12 months unless a project proceeds, in which case project records are retained for 6 years to meet UK tax requirements.

Scope

These terms apply to all website design and development services provided by GitFoundry to clients in the UK and internationally.

Quotes & pricing

All prices are quoted in GBP and include VAT where applicable. Quotes are valid for 30 days. The fee covers the scope described in the original brief — additional work is agreed separately.

Payment

A 50% deposit is due on project start. The remaining 50% is due on handover of the completed site. Projects are not deployed to production until final payment clears.

Revisions

Each pricing tier includes a defined number of revision rounds. Additional revision rounds are charged at £45/hour.

Ownership

On final payment, the complete source code is transferred to the client. The client owns all custom design work, content, and code produced specifically for their project.

Third-party services

Where a project uses third-party services (GitHub Pages, Formspree, domain registrars), the client is responsible for maintaining those accounts after handover.

Liability

Our liability is limited to the fees paid for the specific project. We cannot be held liable for business losses, third-party service outages, or issues arising from client-made changes post-handover.
