Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 14, 2026

HELMQ plans and documents software systems for founders and technical teams. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and how we protect it — in plain language, not legal filler.

What We Collect

We only collect what's needed to deliver your blueprint and run this site.

  • Contact details you give us — name, email, WhatsApp number — when you request a blueprint or reach out.
  • Project information you share for planning — product goals, existing codebases, technical constraints.
  • Payment details, processed directly by our payment provider. We never store full card numbers.
  • Basic technical data — browser type, pages visited — to keep the site working and secure.

How We Use It

Your data exists to get your blueprint built and delivered — nothing else.

  • Deliver the architecture, roadmap, or advisory work you purchased.
  • Communicate about your project, invoices, and delivery timelines.
  • Improve our process and this site.
  • Meet legal and accounting obligations.

Confidentiality & Zero-Data Retention

Project data — source code, architecture details, business context — is covered by a mutual NDA on every engagement, encrypted in transit and at rest, and deleted from our working systems once your deliverable is complete and accepted, unless you ask us to retain it for ongoing work.

Who We Share It With

We don't sell your data. We share it only with the infrastructure and payment providers that keep HELMQ running — under contracts that bind them to the same confidentiality standard — or when legally required.

Cookies

This site uses one functional cookie to remember your language preference (English or Spanish). We don't run advertising or tracking cookies.

Your Rights

You can ask us, at any time, to access, correct, export, or delete the personal data we hold about you. Write to hello@helmq.com and we'll respond within 30 days.

Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, we'll update the date above and, for material changes, notify active clients directly.
