Your information

What you send us through the contact form or the project sign-up: your name, email, phone number, business details and what you need. If you become a client, we also keep your project details, updates and invoices so they can appear in your private portal.

Card payments happen on Stripe's checkout page. Your card details go to Stripe and never reach us.

We count page views: which page was opened and which site the visitor came from, nothing about who you are and no cookie. When we email a business, the link to our work carries a short code, so we can see that the link was opened and when.

To reply to you, plan and build your website, and send project emails such as your agreement, invoices, portal access and updates. We don't sell your information.

Vercel hosts the site, Upstash stores form submissions and client projects, Resend sends our emails, Stripe processes payments, and Calendly handles call bookings if you book one. Fonts load from Google Fonts. Each of them only receives what it needs to do its job.

We only use essential cookies and browser storage, and no advertising trackers or third-party analytics. Your browser remembers what you typed during sign-up and your portal PIN, only for the open tab, and that you dismissed the cookie notice. Our own team dashboard uses a sign-in cookie. Payments happen on Stripe's checkout page, which sets its own cookies under Stripe's privacy policy.

To see, correct or delete what we hold about you, email support@forgewebsite.com. We keep client records and invoices for as long as we need them for the project and for our accounts.
