Privacy Policy — Bengal Origin Co.

Last updated: 21 July 2026

Bengal Origin Co. ("we", "us", "our") is a Bangladesh garment sourcing and buying-house service based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, working with importers and brands across the European Union. We take the privacy of everyone who contacts us or visits bengalorigin.co seriously. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why, how we use it, and the rights you have over it.

1. Who is responsible for your data

Bengal Origin Co. is the data controller for personal data collected through this website. For any privacy question or request, contact us at baker@bengalorigin.co.

2. What data we collect

We only collect what we need to respond to you and to understand how the site is used:

Contact enquiries. When you submit our contact form, we collect the details you provide — your name, email address, company, country, and (optionally) phone number, what you are sourcing, and your message.
Email correspondence. If you email us directly, we retain that correspondence and the contact details it contains.
Usage and analytics data. Aggregated, non-identifying data about how visitors use the site — pages viewed, referring source, approximate region, and device or browser type.

We do not knowingly collect data from children, and we do not collect special categories of personal data.

3. How we use your data

To respond to your enquiry and provide the credential packs, quotations, or information you request.
To communicate with you about a potential or ongoing sourcing engagement.
To understand and improve how our website performs.
To meet legal, accounting, or regulatory obligations where they apply.

4. Legal basis for processing (GDPR)

For visitors in the European Union and other regions covered by the GDPR, we rely on:

Consent — when you choose to submit an enquiry or contact us.
Legitimate interests — to respond to business enquiries, run our sourcing service, and maintain a secure, functional website, balanced against your rights.
Legal obligation — where retention or disclosure is required by law.

5. Analytics and cookies

We use two analytics services to understand site usage:

Plausible Analytics — a privacy-focused, cookie-free analytics tool that does not track individuals or collect personal data.
Google Analytics — which uses cookies to measure aggregated site usage. You can opt out via your browser settings or Google's opt-out tools.

You can block or delete cookies through your browser at any time; the site remains fully usable without them.

6. Who we share data with

We do not sell your personal data. We share it only with trusted service providers who help us operate — such as our email, hosting, and analytics providers — and only to the extent needed to deliver those services. We may also disclose data where required by law.

7. International transfers

We operate from Bangladesh and work with EU clients, so your data may be processed outside your home country. Where we transfer personal data internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure it remains protected in line with this policy.

8. How long we keep your data

We retain enquiry and correspondence data only as long as needed to respond to you, manage any resulting engagement, and meet legal obligations — after which it is deleted or anonymised.

9. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal data, to object to processing, and to data portability. To exercise any of these rights, email baker@bengalorigin.co and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe. If you are in the EU and believe we have not handled your data properly, you may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

10. Security

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. No method of transmission over the internet is fully secure, but we work to safeguard your information.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The current version, with its revision date, will always be published on this page.
