Last updated: October 2026

1. Who We Are

This Privacy Policy applies to the website https://www.amitsarda.xyz (and its aliases), operated by Amit Sarda, independent CRM and SaaS consultant based in India, providing consulting, workflow automation, and operational advisory services to clients worldwide.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or your personal data, you can reach me directly at:
Email: hello@amitsarda.xyz

2. Static Website Architecture & Data Minimization

This website is built as a static website. We believe in data minimization:

No User Accounts: There are no user accounts, passwords, or login portals for visitors.
No Blog Comments: We do not host comment sections or collect public comment forms.
No Direct Credit Card Processing: We do not collect or store financial or credit card information on this site.

3. Information We Collect and How We Use It

A. Direct Inquiries & Consultations (Cal.com)

When you reach out via email or schedule a discovery consultation, you provide information such as your name, work email address, company name, and details regarding your software systems or consulting requirements.

Cal.com: We use Cal.com to facilitate scheduling. When booking an appointment, your scheduling information is handled securely according to Cal.com’s Privacy Policy.
Communication: We use this information solely to communicate with you, evaluate consulting fit, and deliver requested consulting services. We never sell or rent your contact details to third parties.

B. Analytics and Performance Measurement

To understand site traffic, identify popular content, and improve site reliability, we use the following analytics services:

Umami Analytics: A privacy-friendly, cookieless, open-source analytics platform hosted on our own infrastructure. Umami does not track visitors across websites, does not collect personal data, and does not store persistent tracking cookies.
Ahrefs Webmaster Tools / Analytics: Used to identify technical issues, monitor site performance, and assess page health.

C. Client Testimonials (Testimonial.to)

We embed authentic client reviews and video testimonials provided through testimonial.to. When viewing these embeds, testimonial.to may load scripts or media assets directly from their servers in accordance with Testimonial.to’s Privacy Policy.

D. Embedded Media & Diagrams

Certain articles embed helpful video tutorials (such as YouTube) or workflow diagrams (such as Whimsical). Embedded content from third-party websites behaves in the exact same manner as if the visitor visited the third-party site directly, and may collect data or set cookies governed by their respective privacy policies.

4. Affiliate Links & Commercial Disclosures

Articles on this site contain affiliate links to software tools, services, and hardware products that I recommend:

Amazon Associates: As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. When you click an Amazon link, Amazon may set a temporary tracking cookie to attribute qualifying purchases.
SaaS Affiliate Programs: We participate in affiliate programs through platforms such as PartnerStack, Rewardful, Dub.co, and direct vendor affiliate programs (e.g., Pipedrive, HubSpot). Clicking an affiliate link passes an identifier to the merchant’s site so qualifying signups or purchases can be credited. This occurs at no additional cost to you.
For complete details, please read our dedicated Affiliate Disclosure.

When you first visit this website, you are presented with a consent banner regarding site analytics and preferences:

Accept: Acknowledges site usage analytics.
Decline: Dismisses the banner and operates with standard privacy settings. Privacy-friendly Umami continues operating cookielessly without personal data collection.
You can clear your cookies and browser data at any time to reset your preferences.

6. Data Retention and Security

We retain correspondence and consulting notes only for as long as necessary to fulfill business purposes or comply with legal requirements. We employ industry-standard security protocols, including HTTPS encryption (SSL/TLS) across all connections, to protect information in transit.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you have specific rights regarding your personal information, including:

Right to Access: Request a copy of any personal data we hold about you.
Right to Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”): Request deletion of your personal communication records.
Right to Restrict or Object to Processing: Object to our processing of your personal data or withdraw consent at any time.
