Privacy Policy
Who is responsible
This policy is issued by Falcon Protocol Review Co., Ltd. , the company behind the Falcon Protocol Review masthead, registered in Taipei City, Taiwan. The statutory identification below is the same block printed in the footer of every page.
What this covers — and what it deliberately does not
Falcon Protocol Review is an editorial publication. It does not sell anything, does not operate accounts, and does not run any analytics or advertising technology. The only personal data this site can receive arrives through the inquiry form, and the only record it stores in your browser is your cookie choice. This policy is therefore short: there is little to disclose, and the honest way to write privacy text is to describe only what actually exists.
Purposes and legal basis
Under Taiwan’s Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA), collection must serve a specific purpose and be handled accordingly. This site collects for two purposes only:
- Answering your inquiry (the form on /contact/). The data consists of the name you type, your email address, an optional phone number, the text of your message, and a submission timestamp. This is collected because you asked the desk a question and a reply requires an address for it. Only the people who answer the desk mailbox read inquiries; no marketing lists are built from them, and no newsletters are sent.
- Remembering your cookie choice. The record of the answer you give the consent banner is kept in your own browser and is never sent to the site’s server.
Where the data goes
The form sends your message to a first-party handler on this domain (/api/inquiry), which delivers it to the editorial mailbox at
info@falcon-protocol.digital
. No analytics service, advertising network, data broker or other third party receives anything from this site — the claim is not a promise about future behaviour but a description of what the pages actually contain. Where the hosting infrastructure that receives form submissions operates outside Taiwan, the transfer is limited to what is technically necessary to store and answer your message, consistent with the PDPA’s rules on international transmission.
Retention
Inquiry correspondence is kept while the conversation is active and for up to twelve months after the last reply, so that follow-up questions keep their context; it is then deleted. (Twelve months is the desk’s own working standard for correspondence records; the business has not yet countersigned a different figure, and this page will say so plainly if one is adopted.) The cookie-choice record persists in your browser until you change it or clear it — see the cookie note for the exact storage key.
Your rights
The PDPA gives you, as a data subject, the right to request access to and a copy of your personal data, to have it corrected or supplemented, to request that collection, processing or use stops, and to have it deleted when it is no longer lawful to keep. For any of these, write to info@falcon-protocol.digital , call +886 2 2765 4931 , or post to the registered address in the footer — name the request (for example, “request for access”) and you will receive a substantive answer, not a form letter addressed to no one. Complaints may also be directed to Taiwan’s competent authority for this site’s line of business under the PDPA.
Security and scope
Because the publication sells nothing, there are no payment records to protect — the risk surface is the inquiry mailbox itself. Copies of correspondence are kept on standard business mail infrastructure with access limited to the desk. The site stores no passwords (it has no logins), runs no third-party scripts, and if that ever changes, this page changes first, in plain words.
Changes
If the site’s behaviour changes, this policy is rewritten to match before the change goes live, with the review date at the top updated. The current version applies as of the date shown above.
