We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Based on the current website implementation, Q7ai does not set analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or tracking pixels. We do not use Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, or Meta Pixel on this website. We also do not use localStorage or sessionStorage to store personal information.
Your browser may still communicate with third-party services that deliver fonts or images when those resources load. Those providers may receive standard technical information, such as your IP address, as part of a normal web request.
7. Third-Party Services
We use a limited set of service providers to operate this website. These providers process information only as needed to perform their role:
- Email delivery. We use an email-sending service to deliver team notifications, confirmation messages, and newsletter emails.
- Database hosting. Submitted form information is stored in a database used to operate our website and business records.
- Website and content delivery. The website may load fonts from Google Fonts and images from Unsplash on certain pages. Those providers may receive standard technical request information when those resources are loaded.
We do not currently use a customer relationship management platform, payment processor, advertising network, or analytics suite on this website.

We do not sell personal information. We share information only as needed to operate the website and respond to your requests, including with:
- Service providers that send email or host our database
