Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the website available at https://star-systems.com.ua, related pages, contact forms, and careers application flows operated by STAR Systems.

For purposes of applicable privacy laws, STAR Systems acts as the data controller for information collected through this website unless another controller is explicitly stated in writing.

If you have any privacy questions, contact us at hello@star-systems.com.ua.

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect the following categories of data:

• Contact details, such as full name, email address, and company name.
• Inquiry details, including project interests, budget range, and message content.
• Careers data, including CV/resume files and employment-related information you voluntarily provide.
• Technical and usage data, such as IP address, device/browser metadata, pages visited, and interaction timing.
• Cookie or local storage signals used for site preferences and consent status.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data unless you choose to include it in a free-text message or attachment.

We collect personal data from three primary sources:

• Directly from you when you submit forms, send emails, or upload application files.
• Automatically from your device when you browse our website.
• From service providers that help us host, secure, and operate the website.

We process data for legitimate business purposes, including:

• Responding to inquiries and scheduling discovery or sales conversations.
• Reviewing and processing careers applications.
• Operating, maintaining, and securing our website and infrastructure.
• Monitoring reliability, diagnosing incidents, and preventing abuse.
• Complying with legal obligations and resolving disputes.
• Improving service quality, communication workflows, and content relevance.

Where GDPR or similar frameworks apply, we rely on one or more of these legal bases:

• Consent, where specific optional processing requires it.
• Legitimate interests, such as operating a secure website and responding to business requests.
• Performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps at your request.
• Compliance with legal obligations.

You can withdraw consent at any time where consent is the legal basis.

We use cookies and similar technologies for core functionality, preference persistence, and consent state management.

Your browser controls can usually block or delete cookies. Disabling certain cookies may affect site behavior, especially language or consent preferences.

For legal terms related to cookies and website use, see: Terms of Use.

We do not sell personal data. We may share data only in limited cases:

• With trusted vendors that provide hosting, email delivery, and security support.
• With professional advisors when needed for legal, accounting, or compliance purposes.
• With authorities when required by law, court order, or valid legal process.
• As part of a merger, acquisition, or business transfer, subject to confidentiality.

Our vendors and infrastructure may process data in countries other than your own. When required, we implement appropriate transfer safeguards, including contractual protections and risk-based vendor controls.

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including legal, tax, accounting, and dispute-resolution requirements.

• Contact inquiries are retained for continuity of communication and follow-up.
• Careers application data may be retained for recruitment and legal compliance periods.
• Security and operational logs are retained based on system integrity requirements.

When retention is no longer necessary, data is deleted, anonymized, or securely archived.

We maintain technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

• Access controls and least-privilege principles.
• Secure transport and infrastructure hardening practices.
• Operational monitoring and incident response workflows.
• Controlled vendor access and service-level security reviews.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. We continuously improve controls according to risk and technical context.

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

• Access personal data we hold about you.
• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Request deletion of data, subject to legal exceptions.
• Object to or restrict certain processing activities.
• Request portability of personal data where applicable.
• Withdraw consent where processing is consent-based.

To exercise rights, email hello@star-systems.com.ua. We may request verification to protect account and data integrity.

If US state privacy laws apply (including California frameworks), you may have rights to know, access, delete, or correct personal data and to limit certain processing activities.

We do not sell personal information and do not process sensitive personal information for profiling or unrelated secondary purposes.

Our website and services are not directed to children under 13 (or a higher age threshold where local law requires). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

If you believe a child has submitted personal data to us, contact us and we will take appropriate removal steps.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect legal, operational, or technical changes. The latest version is always published on this page with an updated effective date.

Privacy inquiries, requests, or concerns can be sent to hello@star-systems.com.ua.

We take privacy and data governance seriously and aim to respond to verified requests in a timely manner under applicable law.
