Who we are
Cultural Pathways LLC, registered in Virginia, United States, is responsible for the personal information described in this policy.
For privacy questions or requests, contact daniela@culturalpathways.com.
This policy explains how we handle information collected through our website and related inquiries about our services.
Information we collect
When you contact us, we collect the information you provide, including:
- Your name and email address.
- Your country of residence.
- Your company or organization, if provided.
- Your message and subsequent correspondence.
Our hosting and security services may also process technical information, such as IP addresses, browser and device information, and signals used to detect spam or automated activity.
Please share only the information needed for us to respond to your inquiry.
How we use your information
We use inquiry information to respond to you, discuss your needs and services, and manage related correspondence. We use technical information to operate and protect the website and prevent spam or abuse.
Where the GDPR applies, our legal bases may include:
- Taking steps at your request before entering into a contract.
- Our legitimate interests in responding to business inquiries and maintaining a secure website.
- Compliance with applicable legal obligations.
- Consent, where required for a particular optional activity.
Submitting an inquiry does not subscribe you to a newsletter or promotional emails. If we introduce a newsletter in the future, we will provide a separate sign-up process.
Service providers and sharing
We use providers that support website hosting, business email and website security. These currently include:
- Hostinger, for website hosting and storage.
- Google Workspace, for business email and related correspondence.
- Google reCAPTCHA, for protection against automated or abusive form submissions.
Website inquiries are stored in our website’s database and delivered to our business email account.
We may also disclose relevant information where legally required or necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
Cookies and spam protection
Our contact form uses Google reCAPTCHA. This service processes technical signals and uses cookies to help distinguish legitimate visitors from automated activity.
Further information is available in Google’s reCAPTCHA data-processing information.
Any future use of optional analytics or advertising tracking will be explained separately, with consent requested where applicable law requires it.
How long we keep information
We retain non-client inquiries and related correspondence for up to 12 months after our last contact, then delete them from our active records unless longer retention is necessary to meet legal obligations or handle legal claims.
Email delivery logs are scheduled for automatic deletion after 30 days.
Hostinger retains weekly website backups for up to six weeks. We retain downloaded website backups for up to 90 days from creation.
Deleted inquiry data may remain in backup copies until those copies are overwritten or deleted within these periods. Backup copies are used for recovery only. If a backup is restored, we reapply applicable deletions before using restored inquiry records.
International processing
Cultural Pathways is operated from Fiji. Our service providers may store or process personal information in the United States and other countries where they operate.
Hostinger and Google Workspace process personal information under their data-processing agreements. These agreements contain international-transfer provisions, including standard contractual clauses or other recognised transfer mechanisms where applicable.
You can contact us at daniela@culturalpathways.com for information about the safeguards relevant to your data and how to obtain a copy of the applicable terms.
Your privacy rights
Depending on the law applicable to your information, you may have rights to access, correct or delete your information, restrict or object to certain processing, and receive a portable copy.
Where processing relies on your consent, you can withdraw that consent without affecting processing lawfully carried out before withdrawal.
To make a request, email daniela@culturalpathways.com. We may need to verify your identity before handling certain requests.
Where applicable, you may also complain to the relevant data-protection authority.

We will update this policy when our website or information-handling practices change. The date above shows when the policy was last updated.
