1. Who we are
Esinle ("we", "us") is a biodegradable packaging manufacturer based in Guangzhou, China, operating the website esinle.com. We act as the data controller for personal data collected through this website. For any privacy question, contact us at info@esinle.com.
2. Data we collect
We collect only the data necessary to answer business inquiries and operate the website:
- Inquiry form data — name, work email, company, phone/WhatsApp, country, estimated quantity, and your message. You provide this voluntarily when requesting a quote.
- Usage data — aggregated, pseudonymised analytics via Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager (pages visited, device type, country, referral source). No individual browsing profiles are built.
- Business correspondence — emails and messages exchanged with our sales team.
3. How we use your data
- Responding to inquiries: quotes, samples, technical documentation, compliance packs
- Fulfilling pre-contractual steps you request (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR)
- Our legitimate interest in promoting and improving a B2B business (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR): follow-ups on quotes you requested, website analytics, fraud prevention
- Legal obligations: record-keeping, tax, customs documentation
4. Cookies & analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager to measure aggregated site usage (e.g. which product pages are visited). These services set first-party cookies with anonymised identifiers. We do not use advertising retargeting cookies tied to individual profiles, and we do not sell or share personal data with advertisers. You can block analytics cookies through your browser settings without affecting site functionality.
5. Who receives your data
- Service providers — web hosting, email, analytics (Google), and freight/logistics partners, under data-processing agreements, only as needed to run the website and fulfil orders.
- No sale of data — we never sell, rent, or trade personal data.
- Legal disclosure — only when required by law or a binding order.
6. International transfers
We operate from China, and some providers (e.g. Google) process data in the United States. Transfers outside the EEA/UK rely on standard contractual clauses and equivalent safeguards where applicable. By submitting an inquiry you acknowledge this transfer, which is necessary to respond to your request.
7. Retention
Inquiry data is retained for 24 months from last contact, then deleted or anonymised. Business records required by tax/customs law are kept for the statutory period. Analytics data is retained per Google's standard settings (14 months for event data).
8. Your rights
- EEA/UK (GDPR): access, rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability, objection to legitimate-interest processing, and withdrawal of consent. Complaints may be lodged with your local supervisory authority.
- California (CCPA/CPRA): the right to know what personal information we hold, to request deletion, and to opt out of "sales" — we do not sell personal information, so no opt-out is required, but you may still exercise the right to know/delete.
- Email info@esinle.com to exercise any right. We respond within 30 days and verify identity before disclosing data.
9. Security
The site is served over HTTPS. Access to inquiry data is limited to sales staff who need it. We apply access controls and provider security baselines, but no internet transmission is absolutely secure — you submit data at your own discretion.
10. Children
This is a business-to-business website not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16.
11. Changes to this policy
We update this policy as regulations or our practices change. The "Last updated" date above reflects the current version. Material changes affecting ongoing business relationships will be notified by email.
