Privacy Policy
1) Data Controller
This website is operated by CGX Consulting SRL (“CGX”, “we”, “us”).
Registered office: 20 Unirii Blvd., 040107 Bucharest, Romania
Trade Register No.: J2025076276001
CGX Consulting SRL is the Data Controller for personal data processed via this website under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).
Websites covered: This Privacy Policy applies to cgxconsulting.com.
The related domains cgxconsulting.ro and cgxc.ro are used solely for redirection to this main site and do not collect or process personal data.
2) What personal data we collect
We collect personal data only when you submit our contact form:
- Email address (required)
- Name (required)
- Message (required)
- Consent (checkbox) confirming you agree to our processing for the purpose below
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data for marketing purposes.
3) Purpose and legal basis
Purpose: to read and respond to your inquiry and, where applicable, to take steps at your request (e.g., discussing a potential engagement).
Legal basis: GDPR Art. 6(1)(a) — Consent (you tick the consent checkbox), and GDPR Art. 6(1)(b) — Pre-contractual steps (responding to your request).
You may withdraw consent at any time; this does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
4) Processing by our form provider (Processor)
We use FormBackend to receive and manage form submissions. Under the terms and the Data Processing Addendum (DPA) incorporated by reference into FormBackend’s Agreement, CGX acts as Data Controller and FormBackend acts as Data Processor. Details are available on FormBackend’s GDPR / DPA page: https://www.formbackend.com/gdpr.
Form submissions are transmitted securely to FormBackend and stored/managed for our access. FormBackend lists certain sub‑processors (e.g., DigitalOcean, AWS/S3, Postmark, Cloudflare, CleanTalk, Stripe/Paddle, PostHog). Some sub‑processors are located in the United States. International transfers are handled under appropriate safeguards (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses) as described in the DPA to ensure protection essentially equivalent to that required in the EEA.
5) Security
Our site uses HTTPS/TLS. FormBackend applies technical and organizational measures (secure transmission, access controls, incident response, breach notification) and anti‑spam filtering (via CleanTalk) to protect submissions.
6) Data retention
We retain messages only as long as necessary to respond and manage your inquiry. If our correspondence leads to a contract, related data may be retained for the duration of the engagement and for the applicable legal retention period (e.g., accounting/archival). Otherwise, we aim to delete routine contact submissions within 12 months.
7) Your rights (GDPR)
You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection (where applicable), and to withdraw consent at any time.
You may also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority: ANSPDCP — Autoritatea Națională de Supraveghere a Prelucrării Datelor cu Caracter Personal (Romania).
To exercise your rights, contact us at contact@cgxconsulting.com. For submissions handled through FormBackend, you can also request deletion via the mechanism described on their GDPR page.
8) Cookies and trackers
This is a static website and we do not use our own analytics or marketing cookies.
Any functional cookies strictly necessary to deliver and protect the form (e.g., spam‑prevention mechanisms provided by our Processor) may be set when using the form; these are used only for security/anti‑spam.
9) Data recipients and confidentiality
Access to submissions is limited to authorized CGX personnel bound by confidentiality. We do not disclose personal data to other third parties unless legally required or strictly necessary to respond to your request (in which case you will be informed, where appropriate).
10) International transfers
Where our Processor or its sub‑processors store/process data outside the EEA (e.g., in the United States), such transfers are governed by appropriate safeguards as described in FormBackend’s DPA (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses) to ensure a level of protection essentially equivalent to that required in the EEA.
