Privacy Policy for LinkScope Sourcing 13

This policy explains how LinkScope Sourcing 13 handles business contact details and specification notes that you send about industrial Ethernet switches. The desk uses that information to review a procurement request and to ask factories for quotations. It is not a consumer storefront and it does not sell personal data as a product.

Information you submit

The inquiry form asks for name, work email, phone, company, and a procurement requirement. With JavaScript enabled, optional fields can capture a product family, a target budget, a currency, a per-unit or whole-order basis, and a supplier preference. Those optional values are merged into the requirement text at submission. They are not separate backend fields. Without JavaScript, the page asks you to type budget and preference into the requirement box yourself.

How the note is used

The note is used to understand port count, speed, power, quantity, destination, and timing, and to contact you about factory replies. Factories or their sellers may receive the technical portion needed to quote. They should not receive unrelated personal commentary. Article comments, if you leave them, store the name, email, and comment you typed so the note can be shown with the article.

Retention and sharing

Messages are kept long enough to finish the comparison and to answer a follow-up about the same brief. They may sit with the operators who run this desk and with service providers who host the form. We do not ask you for payment card numbers on this site. Do not put card data in the requirement box. A public address book of visitors is not maintained, because no storefront address is published.

Your requests

You may ask, through the contact form, for a copy of the business note you sent or for that note to be corrected. Some records may be kept where a legal or accounting duty applies to the inquiry. Browser storage on your device remembers the sourcing-support notice timing locally. Closing the notice in one session does not delete the requirement you already submitted.

Contact about privacy

Privacy questions go through the same contact form used for switch briefs. Name the request as a privacy question so it is not treated as a new port-map RFQ. This policy may be updated on this page when the form or the review path changes. The technical comparison pages, including the RFQ planner, do not create a separate privacy regime.
