Privacy Notice

Who is responsible for your data

FactoryPass China is a trading name operated by Beijing Blue Light & Shadow Culture Communication Co., Ltd. (北京蓝色光影文化传播有限公司). Questions and requests about personal data: [email protected].

What we collect, and why

Enquiry data. When you submit the contact form or email us, we receive the details you provide: name, work email, company, country, and the supplier and transaction information you choose to share. We use it to answer you, scope the service and deliver it. The legal basis is taking steps prior to a contract, and performing one.

Engagement data. During an engagement we process the documents you send — quotations, proforma invoices, payment instructions — to perform the review you ordered. See the document-handling policy for storage and deletion specifics.

Website data. The site is static and sets no cookies of its own. Where analytics is enabled, we use Google Analytics 4 with IP anonymisation to understand aggregate page usage; where a spam-protection widget is enabled on the form, its provider processes technical signals to distinguish humans from bots. Neither is used to build advertising profiles by us.

What we do not do

• We do not sell or rent personal data.
• We do not use your enquiry data for unrelated marketing without your consent.
• We do not ask for, and you should not send, payment credentials through this website.
• The website accepts no file uploads; documents travel by email at your initiative.

Supplier information you share with us

The contact form requires you to confirm you are authorized to share the supplier information you submit. Information about suppliers — company names, addresses, documents — is business information, but it can include personal data (a legal representative’s name, a salesperson’s contact details). We process it solely to deliver the verification service you request, and we do not publish it.

Sharing

Data is shared only with service providers necessary to operate (email, form delivery, analytics and spam-protection processors), with our field personnel to the extent an engagement requires, and where the law compels disclosure. Providers process data under their own published terms; we choose providers that support our deletion obligations.

Retention

Enquiry threads that do not become engagements are deleted within 12 months. Engagement records, including delivered reports, are kept for the period required by tax and commercial-record law applicable to the operating entity, then deleted. Documents handled under the document-handling policy follow the shorter timelines stated there.

Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights of access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability and objection. Write to [email protected] and we will respond within 30 days. If you believe we have mishandled your data, you may also complain to your local supervisory authority.

International transfers

We operate from China and serve overseas buyers, so data necessarily crosses borders — between you, our team and our service providers. We limit what is transferred to what the engagement requires.

Changes

Material changes to this notice will be published on this page with a new “last updated” date. The version on this page at the time you interact with us is the one that applies.
