Privacy Policy | Giga Techspace

Version effective from September 15, 2026. Replaces the version of September 14, 2026.

1. INTRODUCTION

This Privacy Policy explains how Giga Techspace Inc. (“Company”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects your personal information.

It covers two things, and says which is which throughout:

The Website — our public marketing site at gigatechspace.com. You can read it without an account. We measure how it is used and we reply to enquiries sent from it.

The Platform — the Giga Techspace application at app.gigatechspace.com, which you use with an account, under the Terms and Conditions applicable to you as a Client or as a Specialist.

Operational Structure:
Giga Techspace Inc. is the operator of the Platform and the Controller of your data. The Platform is technically maintained and developed by our parent company and technology partner, Giga Techspace Sp. z o.o. (based in Poland), acting as a service provider.

Location of Data:
All personal information is stored on secure servers located in the United States. While our technology team in Poland may access the infrastructure for maintenance and development purposes, the primary storage and control of data remain in the U.S. under U.S. law.

2. CONTROLLER AND CONTACT INFORMATION

The operator and controller of your data is:

Giga Techspace Inc.
111 Congress Ave, Suite 500
Austin, Texas 78701
USA
Email: legal@gigatechspace.com

3. PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

A. On the Website. The Website has no account, no login and no file upload. Information reaches us in three ways:

— Usage data: pages viewed, referring source, approximate location derived from IP address, device and browser type, and interactions such as which call to action was selected. This includes completion of the project planner, its predefined work, software, collaboration and billing categories, and the category of an estimate discussed with us. These measurements use cookies or limited signals without cookies, as described in section 4.

— What you send us: the project planning and estimating tools calculate results in your browser. We measure the predefined categories and actions described above, but do not send the free text you enter in the planner’s “Other” software field to Google Analytics. That text can appear in your local result and in an email draft you choose to open. Opening a draft does not send an email to us; we receive its contents and your email address only if you send it. Estimate values may also be included in a pre-filled email link and its click measurement.

— Server logs: standard request data, including IP address and timestamp, recorded to serve the site, identify abuse and count visits by country in aggregate.

B. On the Platform. We collect information necessary to operate our B2B platform:

— Identity & Contact Data: Name, email, phone, business address.

— Professional Data: Skills, portfolio, employment history (for Specialists).

— Project Data: Project specifications, deliverables, files.

— Financial Data: Payment details (processed by secure third-party providers).

— Technical Data: IP address, device logs, Workspace usage metrics.

4. COOKIES, ANALYTICS AND ADVERTISING

On the Website, we use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google LLC and loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand how the Website is used and which content leads to enquiries. When analytics storage is allowed, Google uses cookies with a pseudonymous identifier for your browser. Our Analytics property is linked to Google Ads accounts we control for campaign measurement and advertising audiences. Advertising storage, use of data for advertising and ad personalization are denied by default everywhere and enabled only if you allow the marketing category.

Which cookies are on before you make a choice depends on where you visit from, which Google works out from your IP address when our tag loads. The categories and your controls are described in our Cookie Policy, and you can change your choice at any time from the cookie banner or from the Cookie Settings control on the Website.

Visitors from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Quebec, Turkey, Andorra, Gibraltar and Jersey start with functional, analytics and advertising storage denied under Google Consent Mode. Optional cookies are not read or written by the Google tags until you allow the corresponding category. Elsewhere, analytics storage is allowed by default; functional and advertising storage remain denied until you allow them. A saved choice applies on later visits, subject to Global Privacy Control as described below.

Measurement without cookies: we use advanced Google Consent Mode. Google tags load even before a choice is made and after “Essential cookies only” is selected. When analytics or advertising storage is denied, Google can still receive limited measurements without those cookies, including page and event information, browser and device information, timestamps and consent status. Google also receives the IP address needed for the network connection. Google may use these signals for aggregate reporting and modelling. Denying optional cookies is therefore not the same as stopping all measurement or all requests to Google.

Global Privacy Control (GPC): on the Website, an enabled browser signal overrides earlier permission and turns off all optional storage, advertising user data and ad personalization. We remember this opt-out, so turning the signal off later does not restore an older permission. Optional choices remain off while GPC is enabled. The limited measurement without cookies described above can continue.

Most browsers let you block or delete cookies, but doing so does not by itself block measurement without cookies. To prevent Google Analytics from collecting visit information in a supported browser, you can use the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.

Website choices are remembered in this Website’s local storage. They are not automatically shared with the Platform at app.gigatechspace.com. Platform cookies needed for authentication, security and the service you request are distinct from optional analytics or advertising; signing in does not itself give permission for optional cookies.

5. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We use your data to:

— Operate and secure the Website, and answer enquiries you send us.

— Understand which Website content is useful, and measure the campaigns that lead to enquiries.

— Provide the Platform services and manage the marketplace.

— Provide access to specialized software (e.g., Autodesk licenses held by us).

— Verify identity (KYB/KYC) and prevent fraud.

— Maintain and develop the Platform software (supported by our tech team in Poland).

— Train and refine our AI tools (strictly in accordance with our Terms).

We do not use Website data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

6. DATA SHARING AND SERVICE PROVIDERS

To operate the Website and the Platform, we share data with trusted service providers:

A. Technology & Maintenance Provider:
We share data with Giga Techspace Sp. z o.o. (Poland), our parent company, solely for the purposes of software development, platform maintenance, debugging, and technical support. They act as a processor/service provider under our instruction.

— Website analytics and advertising measurement: Google LLC, as described in section 4.

C. No Sale of Data:
We do not sell your personal information for money. Under U.S. state privacy laws, the Google Ads link described in section 4 may count as “sharing” personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising; section 8 explains how to opt out.

We also disclose data where the law requires it, or to establish or defend legal claims.

7. DATA RETENTION

We retain data only as long as necessary for business purposes or as required by U.S. tax and legal regulations (typically up to 7 years for financial records).

Website analytics data is retained for up to 14 months and is then deleted or aggregated. Server logs are retained for up to 90 days. Email correspondence is kept for as long as the business relationship is active and afterwards for the period in which contractual claims may still be raised.

8. YOUR RIGHTS (U.S. USERS)

Texas Residents (TDPSA): You have the right to access, correct, delete, and obtain a copy of your data, and to opt-out of targeted advertising.

California Residents (CCPA/CPRA): You have the right to know, delete and correct your personal information, and to opt out of its sale or sharing. To opt out of sharing for advertising, use the cookie banner, the browser controls described in section 4, or email us. We honour the Global Privacy Control signal as an opt-out, and you will not be treated differently for exercising any right.

Other U.S. Residents: We provide similar rights to access, correction, and deletion.
