Privacy Policy.
How PixelForge AI Labs Ltd collects, uses, and protects personal data when you visit pixelforgeai.net or get in touch with us, and the rights you have under UK data protection law.
1. Who we are
PixelForge AI Labs Ltd (“PixelForge”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is an independent AI lab based in London, England, and registered in England and Wales. We operate two divisions: PixelForge Labs, which works with business customers, and PixelForge Apps, which builds consumer products.
For the purposes of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, we are the controller of the personal data described in this policy.

2. What this policy covers
This policy applies to the website at pixelforgeai.net and to enquiries you send us through it.
Consumer products released by PixelForge Apps (on the web, the App Store, or the Play Store) present their own privacy notice inside the product. Where a product does not provide a separate notice, this policy applies. Work we do for business clients through PixelForge Labs is governed by the data processing terms in the relevant written agreement, under which we usually act as a processor on the client’s instructions.
3. Information we collect
| Category | What it includes | How we get it |
|---|---|---|
| Enquiry details | Your name, work email address, company, the area you are interested in, and the content of your message. | Provided by you when you submit the contact form. |
| Correspondence | Emails, messages, and notes from calls or meetings that follow an enquiry. | Provided by you, or created by us while we work with you. |
| Technical data | IP address, browser and device type, pages requested, timestamps, and referring page. | Collected automatically in standard server and content-delivery logs operated by our hosting provider. |
We do not ask for special-category data (such as health, ethnicity, or political opinions) and we ask that you do not include such information in messages to us.
4. How we use it and why
We use personal data for the following purposes and rely on the lawful bases shown:
- Responding to enquiries and discussing potential work: our legitimate interest in running our business and, where relevant, taking steps at your request before entering into a contract (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(b) and 6(1)(f)).
- Operating, securing, and improving the website: our legitimate interest in keeping the site available, secure, and working properly (Article 6(1)(f)).
- Complying with legal obligations: for example, record-keeping or responding to lawful requests from authorities (Article 6(1)(c)).
We will not send you marketing emails unless you have asked us to or we have another lawful basis to do so, and you can opt out at any time by contacting us.
6. International transfers
Some of our providers (for example, Formspree and Google) process data in the United States or in other countries outside the United Kingdom. Where that happens, we rely on UK adequacy regulations, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum, or other safeguards recognised under UK GDPR to protect your information. You can ask us for more detail about the safeguards used.
7. How long we keep it
- Enquiries and correspondence: kept for up to 24 months after our last exchange with you. If we enter into an engagement, we keep records for the duration of that relationship and for as long as needed afterwards to meet legal, accounting, or contractual obligations.
- Technical logs: retained by our hosting provider for a short period (generally no more than 90 days) unless needed to investigate a security incident.
When we no longer need personal data, we delete or anonymise it.
8. Security
The website is served over HTTPS, so information you send us is encrypted in transit. Access to enquiry data is limited to people who need it to respond to you, and we use reputable providers with appropriate security controls. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.
9. Your rights
Under UK data protection law you have the right to:
- access the personal data we hold about you;
- ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
- ask us to erase your data in certain circumstances;
- restrict or object to our processing, including processing based on legitimate interests;
- receive your data in a portable format where processing is based on consent or contract; and
- withdraw consent at any time where we rely on consent.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in section 14. We will respond within one month, or tell you if we need longer. We may ask you to verify your identity first.
If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113. If you are in the European Economic Area, you may also contact your local supervisory authority. We would appreciate the chance to address your concerns first.
11. Children
This website and our business services are not directed at children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them through this site. Products released by PixelForge Apps state their own age requirements.
12. Third-party links
The website links to third-party websites and services that we do not control. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, and we encourage you to read their policies.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version on this page and change the “last updated” date above. Where a change is significant, we will take reasonable steps to bring it to your attention.
