Our Commitment to Your Privacy
Protecting Your Personal Information
At PranaGraf Materials & Technologies, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or interact with our services.
We respect your privacy rights and are transparent about our data practices. This policy applies to all information collected through our website, products, services, and any related sales, marketing, or events.
By using our website and services, you consent to the data practices described in this policy. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our services.
Information We Collect
As a static website, PranaGraf does not automatically collect or store personal information from visitors. We only collect information that you voluntarily provide to us through our contact forms and career application forms.
We collect information through two types of forms on our website:
We do not collect sensitive personal information such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, or health information through our website forms.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information you provide solely for the purposes for which it was submitted:
Contact/Lead Information: We use the information from our contact forms to respond to your inquiries, provide information about our products and services, and follow up on potential business opportunities. Your contact information allows us to communicate with you effectively and address your specific needs related to our graphite materials and technologies.
Career Application Information: We use the information from our career application forms exclusively for recruitment purposes. This includes assessing your qualifications for current and future positions, communicating with you about the application process, and conducting interviews if applicable. Your resume and cover letter help us evaluate your skills and experience in relation to opportunities at PranaGraf.
We do not use your personal information for automated decision-making or profiling. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We respect the confidentiality of your personal information and only share it in limited circumstances:
Service Providers: We may share your information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, but only to the extent necessary to perform these functions. These service providers are contractually bound to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify.
Legal Requirements: We may disclose information when required by law, to protect our rights, or to comply with judicial proceedings, court orders, or legal process served on our company.
Business Transfers: In connection with any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company, we may share your information with the prospective buyer or successor entity.
We do not transfer your personal information internationally unless necessary for specific business purposes, and only with appropriate safeguards in place to protect your data.
Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
Our security measures include encryption technologies for data transmission, secure storage systems, and strict access controls that limit employee access to your personal information on a need-to-know basis. Our employees receive regular training on data protection and privacy best practices.
While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. No method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. For recruitment applications, we typically retain candidate information for up to two years unless you request earlier deletion.

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information:
Right to Access: You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you and receive a copy of that information.
Right to Correction: You can request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal information we hold about you.
Right to Deletion: You may request the deletion of your personal information under certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
Right to Object: You can object to the processing of your personal information for specific purposes, such as direct marketing.
Data Portability: You have the right to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
Withdraw Consent: Where we rely on consent to process your personal information, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information provided in the "Contact Us" section below. We will respond to your request within 30 days and may ask for additional information to verify your identity before processing your request.

We do not use marketing cookies or extensive analytics tracking that collects personal information. You can set your browser to block cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our website that require form submissions.
