2. No cookies, no tracking
This website does not use cookies, web analytics, advertising trackers, social media pixels, or any other tracking technologies.
We do not embed third-party fonts, scripts, videos, or maps that would transmit your data to external services. The site is delivered entirely from our own infrastructure.
The only client-side storage we use is localStorage to remember your selected interface language. This data stays on your device and is never transmitted to us.
3. Data we process
a) Server access logs
When you visit our website, our web server may automatically record:
- Your IP address
- Date and time of request
- The URL accessed and HTTP status returned
- Browser type, version and operating system (from the User-Agent header)
- Referring URL, if any
These logs are used solely for technical operation, security monitoring, and abuse prevention.
b) Email correspondence
When you email us at info@bytenova.tech, we process the information you provide — your email address, name (if given), the content of your message, and any attachments. We use this information to respond to your inquiry and, where relevant, to provide our services.
4. Legal basis for processing
- Server logs — Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in operating a secure and reliable website).
- Email correspondence — Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (taking steps at your request prior to entering into a contract) and Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interest in handling business communications).
5. How long we keep your data
- Server logs: deleted after a maximum of 30 days.
- Email correspondence: retained for as long as needed to handle your inquiry, and up to 24 months after our last contact. If a contractual relationship arises, retention follows applicable bookkeeping and statutory obligations (up to 10 years under Maltese law).

We do not sell, rent or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
Your data may be processed by the following categories of service providers acting as our data processors:

Data may also be disclosed to public authorities where required by law.
We aim to keep all processing within the EU/EEA. Where a transfer outside the EU/EEA is necessary, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions issued by the European Commission.
