Privacy & Account Data

Transparency in how we handle personal and usage data.

AgileKaizen respects your privacy and processes only the minimum personal information required to operate our services, comply with law, and maintain a secure and functional experience. We do not sell, trade, or use data for marketing.

1. Purpose of This Policy

This page explains how AgileKaizen Ltd ("AgileKaizen", "we", "our") collects, processes, and protects personal data when you visit our websites or contact us. It applies to www.agilekaizen.com and related subdomains, but not to external links or third-party websites.

2. What Personal Data We Collect

AgileKaizen collects only a small set of personal data required to operate this website and maintain secure communication.

Definition of personal data: information that identifies or could identify an individual (for example, a name, email address, or IP log). This definition does not include the professional metadata we index from publicly available resources.

We collect:
  • Cookies and Usage Data: Functional cookies that remember preferences and improve navigation. No marketing or third-party tracking cookies are used.
  • Contact Forms: Information you provide when you contact us, such as name, email, and message.
  • Server Logs: Technical logs (IP address, browser type, timestamp) used solely for performance and security monitoring.
  • Communications: Emails or correspondence you send us directly.

3. How We Use This Data

Personal data is processed for specific, lawful purposes:

  • To operate and maintain our website and online services.
  • To respond to user inquiries or data access requests.
  • To improve site stability, performance, and accessibility.
  • To meet legal obligations under EU and international data protection law.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

Our processing is based on:

  • Legitimate Interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) - to maintain secure, reliable operations.
  • Consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) - for cookie preferences and voluntary data submissions.
  • Legal Obligation (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR) - where required to comply with applicable laws.

For visitors from California, we comply with the CCPA and affirm that we do not sell or share personal data.

5. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. AgileKaizen uses only essential and functional cookies to support secure login sessions, remember language preferences, and improve usability.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings. The site will remain functional, though some preferences may not be saved. For details, see our Cookie Policy.

6. Data Retention and Security

Personal data is retained for as long as it serves its original, lawful purpose — such as maintaining attribution records, processing user requests, or ensuring the long-term consistency of indexed metadata. Because author and resource information forms part of an ongoing research and curation dataset, certain records may be stored indefinitely where legally permissible and proportionate to their purpose. Access remains restricted to authorized personnel under strict confidentiality and security controls.

7. Your Rights

Under GDPR and related laws, you have the right to:

  • Access and obtain a copy of your personal data.
  • Request correction or deletion ("right to be forgotten").
  • Restrict or object to processing.
  • Withdraw consent at any time.

To exercise these rights, email data@agilekaizen.com. We will respond within 30 days as required by law.

8. International Data Transfers

All personal data is hosted within the European Union. If cross-border transfers are necessary (for example, for cloud services), they occur only to jurisdictions recognized by the European Commission as providing adequate protection.

9. Supervisory Authority and Contact

AgileKaizen Ltd is registered in Ireland and subject to oversight by the Data Protection Commission (DPC). You may contact the DPC or your local data authority if you believe your rights have been infringed.
