This website

This site sets no cookies and uses no advertising or tracking tools. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count page visits. It does not use cookies or build a profile of you; it records aggregate figures such as pages viewed, referring sites and country. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, also processes technical information such as IP addresses in order to deliver the site and protect it from attacks.

Business contacts we email

We write to people in business roles about services and products relevant to their work. We collect names, job titles, business email addresses and company details from public sources such as company websites, industry directories and professional profiles.

We use this information to send a short introduction and at most one follow-up, to record any reply, and to make sure we do not contact people who have asked us not to. Our emails contain no tracking pixels.

Our outreach is aimed at companies and other organisations. We do not send marketing emails to consumers.

For recipients in the UK and the European Economic Area, our legal basis is our legitimate interest in offering business services and products to businesses. We keep messages few and relevant, and every email explains how to opt out.

Your choices and rights

• Reply “no” to any of our emails, or email hello@ceylondesk.com, and we will stop contacting you.
• You can ask us what information we hold about you, and ask us to correct or delete it.
• When you opt out, we keep only your email address on a do-not-contact list so that we do not write to you again.
• You can complain to your data protection authority, for example the Information Commissioner’s Office in the UK.

Who we share it with

We do not sell or rent personal information. We use service providers to run our business: Zoho for email, Google for our working records and Cloudflare for this website. They process information on our behalf, and some of it may be processed outside your country, including in the United States and Sri Lanka.

How long we keep it

If someone does not reply, we delete their details within 24 months of our last email. If we start working together, we keep business records for as long as the law requires. Do-not-contact entries are kept so that opt-outs are respected.
