Privacy Overview

Clear privacy disclosures built around current transparency standards

This policy covers the main parts of privacy handling: what data we collect, why we need it, how long we keep it, and what choices you may have.

Quick summary

  • HostMyCode collects account, billing, support, and technical data needed to run the service.
  • Data is used for delivery, security, billing, fraud prevention, and customer support.
  • Depending on your location, you may have privacy rights such as access, correction, or deletion requests.
01

Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy explains how HostMyCode collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects personal data when you visit the site, create an account, place an order, or contact support.

It applies to our websites, client area, support tools, billing systems, and related service operations. Some products may have extra notices where separate handling is needed.

If you use HostMyCode for a company or agency, make sure the relevant organization is aware of this policy where required.

02

Categories of personal data we collect

Depending on how you use HostMyCode, we may collect your name, email address, phone number, billing address, company details, and account identifiers.

We may also process billing details, order history, support-ticket content, communication history, IP addresses, device and browser details, and service logs needed to run and secure the platform.

For some services, we may also process registrar data, payment metadata, or verification information required for domains, billing, or abuse handling.

03

How we collect personal data

We collect personal data directly from you when you fill forms, contact us, place orders, use the client area, or open support requests.

We also collect some information automatically through logs, cookies, analytics tools, security tooling, payment workflows, and fraud checks.

In some cases, we receive data from third parties such as payment processors, registrars, anti-fraud vendors, analytics providers, support tools, and infrastructure partners.

04

Why we use personal data

HostMyCode uses personal data to provide services, process orders, deliver support, send billing notices, authenticate accounts, detect abuse, prevent fraud, and keep the platform secure.

We may also use it to communicate about renewals, policy updates, incidents, service changes, and customer requests. Where allowed by law, we may send service-related marketing messages subject to consent or opt-out rules.

Where privacy laws require a legal basis, we may rely on contract performance, legitimate interests, legal compliance, fraud prevention, security needs, or consent where required.

05

Cookies, analytics, and similar technologies

HostMyCode uses cookies and similar technologies for core site functionality, security, account sessions, performance analysis, service measurement, and user-experience improvement.

Some cookies or similar technologies may be provided by analytics, chat, advertising, consent-management, or embedded-service providers that support our website and customer workflows.

You can control certain cookies through your browser settings or consent preferences where available. Blocking some cookies may reduce functionality or prevent parts of the site or client area from working as intended.

06

How we share personal data

HostMyCode may share personal data with vendors, subprocessors, and service providers that support payment processing, fraud prevention, analytics, support systems, live chat, email delivery, domain registration, infrastructure operations, compliance handling, and other core business functions.

We may also disclose personal data where necessary to comply with law, enforce our policies, respond to legal requests, investigate abuse, protect our rights, protect other customers, or reduce security or fraud risk.

HostMyCode does not disclose personal data to third parties for their own unrelated use except where required for service delivery, legal compliance, or another disclosed lawful purpose.

07

International transfers and data retention

Because HostMyCode operates online services and uses globally distributed vendors and infrastructure providers, personal data may be processed in multiple jurisdictions depending on the service, payment method, support workflow, or operational tool involved.

Where cross-border transfers apply, HostMyCode takes commercially reasonable steps to use appropriate safeguards, contractual protections, or other transfer mechanisms required by applicable law.

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for service delivery, billing, legal compliance, security, dispute handling, fraud prevention, abuse investigation, backup retention, and legitimate business recordkeeping. Retention periods may vary by data type and legal obligation.

08

Your privacy rights

Depending on your location and the privacy laws that apply to you, you may have rights to request access to personal data, correction of inaccurate data, deletion of certain data, restriction of processing, portability of certain data, objection to certain processing, or withdrawal of consent where processing depends on consent.

If you are covered by privacy laws that provide specific opt-out rights, including rights related to profiling, targeted advertising, or certain categories of data sharing, you may submit a request through the appropriate contact or account channel. Where required by applicable law, HostMyCode will also process browser-based opt-out preference signals or similar mechanisms in accordance with that law.

To protect account security, HostMyCode may request verification before fulfilling privacy requests and may decline or limit requests where an exception applies, the request cannot be verified, or compliance is not legally required.

09

Security, children, and policy updates

HostMyCode uses commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No system or transmission method is completely secure, and customers remain responsible for securing their own applications, credentials, and hosted content.

HostMyCode services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children where such collection is prohibited by applicable law.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time by publishing the revised version on our website. The current version will apply from the effective date shown on the page, and continued use of the services after changes become effective may constitute acceptance of the updated policy where permitted by law.
