Privacy Policy

Last updated:

This website, appshorizon.in, is operated by AS Technologies, a sole proprietorship registered in India, which runs the Apps Horizon brand. In this policy, “Apps Horizon”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to AS Technologies.

1. Information we collect

Information you give us. When you use our contact form, email us, or message us on LinkedIn, we receive your name, email address and anything you include in your message.

Analytics. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site. This includes pages viewed, time on page, device and browser type, approximate location (city or country) and how you arrived at our site. Google Analytics does not give us your name or email address.

  • EEA, UK and Switzerland: Google Analytics sets no cookies unless you click “Accept”. Until then, it may send Google limited cookieless signals, such as the page viewed and browser type.
  • Everywhere else: analytics is on by default. You can switch it off at any time using Cookie Settings in the footer.

Security data. Our contact form uses Google reCAPTCHA to prevent spam. reCAPTCHA collects device, browser and interaction data so it can tell people from bots. We also use your IP address to verify reCAPTCHA results with Google and to limit the contact form to 3 messages per 24 hours.

Technical logs. Our hosting provider, Vercel, automatically records basic technical data such as IP address, browser type and request time. This keeps the site secure and running well. Vercel also uses your IP address to tell us whether you are in the EEA, UK or Switzerland, so we know whether to ask for cookie consent. We store only that result, not your country or IP address.

2. How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • reply to your enquiries and discuss potential projects
  • understand and improve how our website performs
