Last updated Draft — pending legal review

This notice explains what icsstech.io collects when you visit or write to us, who processes it, how long it is kept, and your rights under the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL).

Who we are

This website is operated by ICSS – Intelligence Compass Software Solutions, King Fahd District, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. ICSS is the controller of the personal data described here. Questions about this notice go to info@icsstech.io.

What we collect

The site collects personal data in three situations.

  • Contact form: your name, work email and the message you write, plus your company and phone number if you provide them. The form also sends the language it was shown in, the time it was opened — used only to reject automated submissions — and your IP address, which is held in memory for at most ten minutes to limit repeated posts.
  • Analytics: when analytics is enabled, Google Analytics 4 sets its _ga cookies and records the pages you view, your device and browser, and an approximate location derived from your IP address.
  • Hosting: our hosting provider keeps request logs that include your IP address and browser user agent, as any web server does.

Nothing else. The site has no accounts, no tracking pixels and no advertising.

Why, and on what basis

  • Answering your enquiry: because you asked us to — under the PDPL, processing needed to respond to your request.
  • Keeping the site secure and available: our legitimate interest in preventing abuse. The rate limit and the request logs serve only this.
  • Understanding how the site is used: analytics. Google Analytics currently loads when you open the site; you can block it as described under Cookies.

Who processes it

Two providers act on our behalf, under their own data-processing terms: our hosting provider, which hosts the site, delivers your enquiry to our inbox and stores the request logs; and Google, which provides Google Analytics. We do not sell personal data and do not share it with anyone else, except where the law requires.

How long we keep it

  • Enquiry emails: for as long as needed to handle and follow up on your request, then deleted on a fixed schedule — currently 24 months after the last exchange.
  • Rate-limit counters: ten minutes, in memory only.
  • Analytics data: for the retention period configured in Google Analytics, after which Google deletes it.
  • Request logs: for the retention period our hosting provider is configured with.

Cookies

The site itself sets no cookies: your language is part of the address, not stored, and there is no login. When analytics is enabled, Google Analytics sets its _ga cookies, which last up to two years, and it loads with the page rather than after a consent prompt. You can block these cookies in your browser's settings or with a content blocker; the site works exactly the same without them.

Your rights

Under the Personal Data Protection Law you can ask us what personal data we hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, object to its processing, and withdraw your consent to analytics at any time by blocking the cookies. Write to info@icsstech.io and we will respond within one business day.

Where it is stored

Our providers may store data outside the Kingdom: our hosting provider processes it in the region our hosting and mail are configured in, and Google Analytics processes it on Google's infrastructure worldwide. Where a transfer leaves Saudi Arabia, it happens under the conditions the PDPL sets for transfers abroad.

PerformAI and Workhub

PerformAI and Workhub are separate applications at performai.icsstech.io and workhub.icsstech.io. Each has its own privacy notice covering the data you put into it; this notice covers only this website.

Changes and contact

We update this notice when the site changes what it does with data, and the date at the top changes with it. Questions, requests and complaints go to info@icsstech.io.
