Privacy Policy

How we collect, process, transfer, and protect inquiry and procurement-related data for global B2B OEM communication.

Effective Date: 2026/05/10

1) Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to precisiongearhead.com and related inquiry channels managed by PrecisionGearhead ("we", "our", "us"). It explains how we handle personal and business contact data from global B2B buyers, sourcing teams, and engineering stakeholders.

2) Controller Identity and Contact

For data-protection requests and policy questions, contact:

  • Controller (website operations): PrecisionGearhead (China-based B2B manufacturing operation)
  • Email: [email protected]
  • Contact page: Contact

If a dedicated data protection officer or regional representative is legally required for a specific project or jurisdiction, we will identify that contact in the relevant contractual documentation.

3) Data We Collect

We may process the following categories of data:

  • Contact Data: name, company, business email, country/region, and role.
  • Project Data: technical requirements, drawings, quantity plans, validation inputs, delivery requests.
  • Communication Data: email/WhatsApp records and inquiry history.
  • Technical Data: basic device/network logs for security and availability (for example IP, browser, timestamp).

We process data for:

  • inquiry response and RFQ handling;
  • technical feasibility review and product recommendation;
  • quotation, sample planning, and order-support communication;
  • website security, abuse prevention, and service reliability;
  • legal, accounting, contractual, and compliance obligations.

Depending on context and jurisdiction, legal bases include consent, legitimate interests, pre-contract/contract necessity, and compliance obligations.

5) Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell personal data. We do not share personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising.

We may disclose limited data to service providers that support hosting, communications, and security operations. These parties must process data for authorized purposes only and under contractual controls.

6) International Transfers

As a global B2B supplier, data may be processed in multiple jurisdictions. Where required, we apply transfer safeguards (for example contractual safeguards) and can provide additional transfer details on request.

7) Retention

We retain data only as long as reasonably necessary for business and compliance purposes. Typical retention windows:

  • inquiry correspondence: typically up to 36 months after last meaningful activity;
  • quotation/order-support records: typically aligned with commercial, tax, and audit obligations (often longer than inquiry-only records);
  • technical/security logs: typically short-term retention for incident response and service protection.

Actual retention may vary where legal obligations, disputes, or contract requirements require longer storage.

8) Automated Decision-Making

We do not use solely automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects for buyer decisions.

9) Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, or portability, and may withdraw consent where consent is used.

To submit a rights request, email [email protected] and include enough information for us to identify the relevant records. To protect data, we may request additional information to verify identity before processing certain requests.

Where applicable law requires, we respond without undue delay and generally within one month, subject to lawful extensions for complex requests.

10) California and U.S. State Privacy Disclosures

If California or other U.S. state privacy laws apply to your request, you may have rights such as the right to know, delete, correct, and (where applicable) limit use of sensitive personal information.

As of this policy date:

  • we do not sell personal information;
  • we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising;
  • we process inquiry data for B2B technical-commercial purposes.

Requests can be submitted via [email protected]. If law requires additional request methods for a specific relationship type, we will provide them.

11) Security

We apply commercially reasonable organizational and technical safeguards to protect data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. No internet transmission or storage system is guaranteed to be 100% secure.

12) Minors

This website is intended for business users and is not directed to children.

13) Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy periodically. Material changes are reflected by updating the effective date shown at the top of this page.
