The data controller operating this site is Drevantos, located on Monroe Street in Chicago, Illinois.

Who operates this website and controls your personal data?

The data controller for all personal information collected on this website is Drevantos, trading at drevantos.com. Our physical operations base and postal address are:

Drevantos operates as an independent residential carpentry workshop led by finish carpenter Ivan Petrov. We process all customer records strictly for scope assessment, project scheduling, and customer communication.

We collect only the technical, inquiry, and advertising data required to assess carpentry projects and measure traffic.

What personal and technical data does this site record?

We do not host user accounts, customer login portals, or payment card processors. Nothing is sold online and no credit card details are ever taken. Data collection is restricted to three defined categories:

  • Inquiry Form Submissions (wono392.php): When requesting a scope assessment, we receive your full name, telephone number, email address, job site street address or neighbourhood, carpentry category (trim, doors, fitting, framing), requested specifications, project notes, and explicit consent confirmation.
  • Technical and Server Log Records: With every form submission and page load, our systems log the visitor IP address, web browser user-agent string, referring URL, timestamp of page rendering, and timestamp of transmission.
  • Live Support Chat Records (vecob6f.php): Conversation transcripts and a random session token stored in browser localStorage to allow returning visitors to continue ongoing carpentry discussions with Ivan Petrov.
  • Advertising & Click Identifiers: Marketing parameters appended to incoming campaign URLs by ad networks, including gclid from Google Ads, msclkid from Microsoft Advertising, and fbclid from Meta Ads.
  • Consent Preferences: Your choice to allow or deny tracking is preserved locally in your browser storage under the key site_consent_v2.
Every data point collected serves the operational delivery of carpentry assessments or website security.

Why do we process your personal data?

Personal information is processed for specific, limited objectives:

  • To evaluate interior trim, moulding, and door hanging inquiries, prepare itemised estimates, and schedule on-site visits in Chicago.
  • To maintain two-way communication regarding carpentry orders, wood moisture checks, and installation schedules via telephone, SMS, or email.
  • To detect automated spam bot submissions, prevent malicious form injections, and preserve web server stability.
  • To measure the cost-effectiveness and audience relevance of our search engine advertising campaigns on Google Ads and Microsoft Advertising, strictly when explicit visitor consent has been granted.
We process records under three lawful bases: consent, contract preparation, and legitimate operational interests.

What are the legal bases for our data processing?

In accordance with statutory standards including GDPR Article 6 and applicable US State regulations, our processing relies on the following lawful bases:

Processing Activity Data Category Lawful Basis
Scope assessment and quote drafting Name, contact details, job address, woodwork specs Contract / Pre-contractual steps requested by the data subject
Advertising analytics and tracking cookies Ad click IDs (gclid, msclkid, fbclid), device telemetry Consent (freely given via Consent Mode v2 banner)
Server logging and bot defense IP address, user-agent, render and submit timestamps Legitimate interest in securing our digital infrastructure
Live support chat continuity Chat transcripts, local session token Legitimate interest in answering prospective customer inquiries
This website actively receives paid visitors from Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, and Meta Ads.

Which advertising platforms run traffic to this site?

This website is a live destination for paid commercial advertising. We actively run acquisition campaigns across google ads and microsoft advertising, and may run campaigns on Meta Ads. When a visitor arrives via a sponsored listing, the referring network appends a unique cryptographic click identifier to the landing page URL:

  • google ads: Attaches the Google Click Identifier parameter (gclid) to evaluate search query intent and track conversions.
  • microsoft advertising: Attaches the Microsoft Click Identifier parameter (msclkid) to verify Bing and MSN search campaign interactions.
  • Meta Ads: Attaches the Facebook Click Identifier parameter (fbclid) when social marketing campaigns are active.

Neither Google, Microsoft, nor Meta has reviewed, approved, or certified Drevantos or this website. We use these commercial platforms under standard advertiser agreements.

We transmit data only to named infrastructure processors including Google, Microsoft, Meta, and our secure hosting host.

Who are the third-party data processors?

Drevantos does not sell, lease, or rent customer lists. We share data only with designated service providers essential to hosting our site, delivering emails, and measuring paid traffic:

  • Google LLC / Google Ireland Ltd: Advertising infrastructure and tag routing. Subject to Google Ads privacy frameworks.
  • Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd / Microsoft Corporation: Search advertising network. You may review the complete Microsoft privacy practices at privacy.microsoft.com.
  • Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd / Meta Platforms, Inc.: Social advertising and analytics infrastructure when active.
  • Web Hosting & Server Infrastructure Provider: Secure cloud data centre hosting our Linux server, executing PHP backend handlers, and storing our local relational database in encrypted volumes.
  • Transactional Email Relay Provider: Encrypted SMTP transport delivering incoming scope assessment submissions directly to [email protected].
International data flows rely on Standard Contractual Clauses and recognised adequacy frameworks.

How are international data transfers managed?

Drevantos operates in Chicago, Illinois, within the United States. If you access our website from the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, your data is transmitted to and stored on servers located in the United States.

Where data is transferred internationally through our technology partners (Google, Microsoft, Meta), transfers are executed under European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF) adequacy mechanisms, ensuring equivalent data protection safeguards.

We enforce strict, finite retention clocks for every category of information we store.

How long do we keep your information?

We reject indefinite data retention. Data is stored only for defined operational periods before being permanently expunged:

Record Type Storage Location Exact Retention Period
Inquiry submissions & email copies Internal encrypted database & mail spool 24 months from submission
Support chat transcripts Server chat storage & visitor browser 18 months from last message
Web server access & security logs Server system journals (syslog) 90 days rolling window

Data in transit is protected with modern TLS encryption, firewalls, and restricted administrative keys.

What security measures protect your data?

We implement physical, administrative, and technical controls to safeguard stored records against unauthorized interception, destruction, or exposure:

  • Transport Layer Security (TLS): Enforced HTTPS with 256-bit encryption for all browsing sessions, form transmissions, and support chat messages.
  • Server Access Restrictions: Backend database servers and SSH administration require public-key cryptographic authentication; root password logins are disabled.
  • Sanitized Input Handling: All inquiry fields are processed through server-side sanitization routines preventing SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS).
  • Zero Payment Exposure: No banking numbers, credit card tokens, or payment credentials ever enter our server perimeter.
European visitors hold enforceable rights of access, correction, deletion, restriction, and portability under GDPR.

What rights do you hold under the GDPR?

If you access our services from within the European Economic Area, the General Data Protection Regulation (gdpr) grants you the following statutory rights regarding your personal records:

  • Right of Access: You may request an itemised copy of all personal records we hold about you.
  • Right to Rectification: You may request correction of inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete project details.
  • Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”): You may request permanent deletion of your inquiry data and chat logs, subject to statutory tax and legal dispute retention rules.
  • Right to Restriction: You may restrict processing while a contest regarding accuracy or legitimacy is being reviewed.
  • Right to Data Portability: You may receive your provided personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

Residents of California and other US states have specific statutory rights under the CCPA and state privacy statutes.

What are your rights under US State privacy laws and CCPA?

Residents of California are protected by the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (ccpa). Similar protections apply to residents of Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and other states with active consumer privacy frameworks:

  • Right to Know and Access: You may request disclosure of the specific categories of personal information collected, the sources of collection, the commercial purpose, and third parties receiving that data over the preceding 12 months.
  • Right to Delete: You have the right to request deletion of personal information collected directly from you.
  • Right to Correct: You may request correction of inaccurate personal records.
  • Right to Opt Out of Sale or Sharing: Drevantos does not sell personal information for monetary compensation. However, the sharing of click identifiers (gclid, msclkid, fbclid) with ad networks may qualify as “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising under California law. You may opt out at any time using our Cookie Preferences dock or via Global Privacy Control.
  • Non-Discrimination: We will never deny services, charge differing rates, or provide lower craftsmanship quality if you exercise your statutory privacy rights.
Our site recognizes and immediately respects the Global Privacy Control signal sent by your browser.

How do we honor Global Privacy Control?

We fully support and recognize global privacy control (GPC). If your browser or operating system broadcasts the Sec-GPC header indicating a universal opt-out of online tracking and data sharing, our client script automatically interprets this as a binding refusal of advertising cookies.

Consent Mode v2 signals (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, analytics_storage) will remain strictly denied without presenting repeated modal prompts.

Drevantos services residential homeowners and adults; we never knowingly collect data from children under 16.

If a parent or guardian becomes aware that a child has submitted personal details through our assessment form, contact us at [email protected] and we will immediately purge the record from our database.
