Privacy and Cookie Policy

This Privacy and Cookie Policy explains how AWDS collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit https://awds.io/. We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected and that your personal data is handled responsibly, transparently, and securely in compliance with the GDPR, the CCPA/CPRA, and other applicable data protection laws.

By using our Website, you agree to the terms of this Privacy and Cookie Policy.

Information We Collect

Personal Identification Data — name, email address, phone number, billing and shipping addresses.
Transaction Data — product details, payment method (processed securely via Stripe — including Apple Pay and Google Pay wallets — and, for customers in Russia, YooKassa), and order history.
Technical Data — IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, and usage analytics via Google Analytics 4 and Yandex Metrica — which, with your consent, may include anonymized session-replay recordings (see Analytics & Session Replay below).
Communication Data — messages or inquiries sent through contact forms, our AI chat assistant, email, or messaging channels such as Telegram.
Marketing Preferences — consent and preferences for promotional communications.

How We Use Your Information

  • To process and fulfill your orders and provide customer support.
  • To manage secure payments through Stripe (including Apple Pay and Google Pay wallets) and, for customers in Russia, YooKassa.
  • To improve our products, services, and website functionality.
  • To personalize your experience and recommend relevant offers.
  • To send promotional information (only with your consent).
  • To analyze website usage via Google Analytics plus Yandex Metrica and improve performance.
  • To comply with legal obligations and prevent fraud or misuse.

We do not sell, lease, or distribute your personal information to third parties unless required by law or explicitly authorized by you.

Security of Your Data

  • Secure data encryption and SSL/TLS protection
  • Access control and authentication systems
  • Periodic data protection audits
  • PCI DSS compliant payment processing via Stripe

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including legal, accounting, and reporting requirements. Once no longer needed, data is securely deleted or anonymized. To demonstrate compliance, we also keep a record of your cookie-consent choices together with a timestamp and IP address.

International Data Transfers

Your personal data may be transferred and processed outside your country of residence — including to the United States (Google, Stripe, Cloudflare) and to the Russian Federation (Yandex, YooKassa), depending on the services you use. We ensure appropriate safeguards and contractual clauses are in place.

Children's Privacy

Our Website is not intended for individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately.

How We Use Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us improve your browsing experience:

Essential Cookies — enable website functionality such as cart storage, checkout, and login.
Performance Cookies — collect anonymous data on how visitors use the website via Google Analytics.
Preference Cookies — remember your language, region, and store settings.
Marketing Cookies — measure the effectiveness of campaigns and personalize content.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies at any time via your browser settings or our cookie consent banner.

Google Consent Mode v2

Our website implements Google Consent Mode v2, which adjusts Google analytics plus Google Ads tags based on your cookie consent:

  • If you accept analytics cookies, Google tags operate with full measurement capabilities.
  • If you decline, Google tags send cookieless pings without identifying individual users, enabling aggregate conversion modeling without personal data collection.

Analytics, AI & Bot Protection

Analytics & Session Replay — we use Google Analytics 4 and Yandex Metrica to understand how the website is used. Yandex Metrica's Webvisor feature may record anonymized session replays (mouse movement, clicks, scrolling) to help us improve usability. These analytics — including session replay — activate only after you grant analytics consent in our cookie banner; if you decline, they are not loaded.
AI Chat Assistant — our website offers an AI chat assistant. Messages you send are processed by a third-party AI provider to generate replies. Please do not share sensitive personal or payment details in the chat.
Bot Protection — we use Google reCAPTCHA to protect our forms from spam and abuse. reCAPTCHA collects device and usage information, including your IP address, and sends it to Google under Google's Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
Message Delivery — when you submit a form or subscribe, your details may be delivered to our team by email and via Telegram so we can respond. We do not publish or sell this information.
