Information We Collect

Information You Provide

If you submit the contact form on this site, you provide your name, email address, phone number, and message text. This form is frontend-only and does not transmit data to a server. Your submission remains in your browser session only. TortekQua does not store, process, or retain contact form submissions.

Automatically Collected Information

Like most websites, this site may log standard server access information including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, and pages visited. This information is used solely for server administration and security purposes. It is not linked to personal identity and is not shared with third parties.

Cookies and Local Storage

TortekQua uses browser localStorage — not cookies — to store your cookie consent choice (Accept or Reject). This value is stored locally in your browser and is not transmitted to any server. It persists until you clear your browser storage or revoke the choice.

No third-party advertising cookies, analytics tracking pixels, or social media tracking scripts are loaded on this website.

Third-Party Resources

This site loads font files from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com) and displays images hosted on Wikimedia Commons (upload.wikimedia.org). When your browser loads these resources, those third-party servers may log your IP address according to their own privacy policies.
