Who We Are

HostDirect Studio is a web design service that builds direct booking websites for small BnBs and holiday home owners. We are operated by Asad Nedian, contactable at asad.nedian29@gmail.com or by WhatsApp at +39 345 843 4299.

This privacy policy explains what personal data we collect when you visit this website (hostdirectstudio.com) and how we use it.

What Data This Website Collects

This website does not use analytics, advertising pixels, or tracking cookies. We do not collect, store, or process any personal data through this site itself.

The only external service this website uses is Google Fonts, which loads typefaces from Google's servers. When your browser requests these fonts, your IP address is transmitted to Google. This is a technical necessity of how web fonts work. Google's privacy policy applies to this data: policies.google.com/privacy.

When You Submit the Onboarding Form

Our client onboarding form is hosted by Google Forms (a Google LLC service). When you fill in and submit the form, your responses are stored in Google's infrastructure and sent to our Google account.

The data you submit includes:

  • Your name, email address, and phone number
  • Property details you provide (address, description, photos link)
  • Your existing platform and system information
  • Any other information you choose to include

We use this data only to deliver the service you have requested — building your direct booking website. We do not sell, share, or use it for any other purpose.

Google's privacy policy governs how Google handles form data: policies.google.com/privacy.

When You Contact Us Directly

If you email us or message us on WhatsApp, we will store your contact details and the content of your message in order to respond to you and carry out any service you request. We do not add you to any mailing list or share your details with third parties.

How Long We Keep Your Data

We retain client data for as long as we are providing services to you, and for a reasonable period after (typically two years) in case of questions or disputes. You can ask us to delete your data at any time by emailing asad.nedian29@gmail.com.

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the European Union, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access — you can request a copy of the data we hold about you
  • Correction — you can ask us to correct inaccurate data
  • Deletion — you can ask us to delete your data
  • Portability — you can request your data in a machine-readable format
  • Objection — you can object to how we process your data

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at asad.nedian29@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. In Italy this is the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali.

Cookies

This website does not set any cookies of its own. Google Fonts may set cookies as part of its service delivery. No consent banner is shown because no tracking or advertising cookies are used.
