Who we are
Who we are
This website is operated by HEKATON Technologies (“HEKATON”, “we”, “us”), Bavaria Town - Tower 19 - Ring Road, Zahraa El Maadi, Cairo, Egypt. HEKATON is responsible for the personal data described in this policy.
Questions about this policy or your data can be sent to info@hekatontech.com.
What we collect
Contact form: your name, work email, organisation, role (optional), phone number (optional), the service or product you are asking about, your sector, your timeframe, your message, the page you came from and any campaign (UTM) parameters in the link you followed.
Job applications: your name, email, phone number, location (optional), LinkedIn and portfolio links (optional), your CV file, your cover note (optional) and the role you applied for.
For both forms we also record that you accepted this policy, when, and which version of it.
Spam protection: when you send a form, Cloudflare Turnstile checks that the request comes from a person. It processes technical information such as your IP address and browser characteristics.
Your preferences: your choice of light or dark theme is stored in your own browser. It is not sent to us.
Why we process your data
To answer your inquiry and follow up on it, based on your request and our legitimate interest in responding to business enquiries.
To assess your job application and contact you about it, based on your application and the steps needed before a possible employment contract.
To protect the website and its forms from spam and abuse, based on our legitimate interest in keeping the service secure.
Retention
Inquiries are deleted automatically 24 months after they are received.
Job applications, including CV files, are deleted automatically 12 months after they are received.
Messages identified as spam are deleted sooner.
Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with service providers that help us run the website, and only for that purpose: our hosting provider, our email provider (for sending confirmation and notification emails) and Cloudflare (Turnstile spam protection).
Some of these providers may process data outside Egypt. Where they do, we rely on the safeguards they offer and on applicable law.
We may disclose data where the law requires it.
Cookies
The website does not use cookies to track visitors, and it does not use analytics or advertising services. If we add website statistics in the future, we will update this policy first and ask for your consent where the law requires it.
Staff who sign in to the website’s administration area receive a login cookie. It is not used for visitors.
Your rights
Subject to applicable law, including Egypt’s Personal Data Protection Law (Law No. 151 of 2020), you can ask to access your personal data, correct it, delete it, or object to or restrict its processing, and you can withdraw consent at any time.
To make a request, write to info@hekatontech.com. We may ask you to confirm your identity before we act on a request.
Security
The website is served only over encrypted connections (HTTPS). CV files are stored privately and can be opened only by authorised staff. Access to the administration area is limited by role, protected by strong passwords, and locked after repeated failed sign-in attempts.
Changes
We may update this policy. The date at the top of the page shows when it last changed. When you send a form, we record which version of the policy you accepted.
