What this website and Drawing to CAD do with information about you, stated plainly.

Who serves it

archresolved.com and www.archresolved.com, Drawing to CAD included, are served by Cloudflare Pages, a service of Cloudflare, Inc.

As with any web host, Cloudflare receives the technical details of each request, such as the IP address it comes from, the address asked for and the browser’s description of itself. What Cloudflare keeps of these, and for how long, is set by Cloudflare; we have not established it, so we do not describe it here.

The website’s pages

  • The website’s pages store nothing in your browser: our code sets no cookies on them, and they keep nothing in local storage, session storage or IndexedDB.
  • They load no analytics, advertising or tracking scripts, and make no requests to third-party servers. Their fonts are served from the site itself.

In Drawing to CAD

  • A drawing you open is read in your browser. It is not uploaded: while it converts, the only requests Drawing to CAD makes are to this site. Nothing of the drawing is kept in your browser once you close or leave the page.
  • Your name, when you give it to sign a decision, is kept in this browser’s local storage so you are not asked again. It is not sent anywhere. “Forget”, beside “Signing as”, removes it, as does clearing this site’s data in your browser. A file you export names who confirmed its scale and its readings, so the name travels with the file wherever you send it.
  • The first time you open a drawing of your own, you say that you have the right to convert it. That answer is kept in this browser’s local storage so you are asked only once. It is not sent anywhere, and clearing this site’s data in your browser removes it. The bundled examples do not ask.
  • The file you export is saved by your browser, where you choose.

If you email us

  • The website has no contact form. Its enquiry links, the manufacturer enquiry among them, open your own email program addressed to hello@archresolved.com; the page itself sends nothing.
  • If you email us, we receive your message, your name and email address, and anything else you choose to include. We use them to reply to you and to follow up on what you asked.

If we contact you

  • We may write to people who represent building product manufacturers, about ArchResolved and how manufacturer information could be brought into architectural detailing. We use only professional contact details their organisation or they publish, such as a name, job title, business email address and the organisation they work for.
  • We use those details only to make that contact and to follow up on any reply. Every message says how to ask us not to write again, and if you tell us at hello@archresolved.com that you object, we stop and keep only what we need to make sure we do not contact you again.

Why we may use it, and for how long

  • Our lawful basis is legitimate interests: answering relevant business enquiries, and proportionate outreach to manufacturers about our work. Outreach also follows the rules on electronic direct marketing.
  • We keep routine enquiry and outreach correspondence for up to 24 months after the last meaningful exchange, unless it should be deleted sooner or the law requires us to keep it longer.

Who else handles it

  • Our email is provided by Microsoft 365, a service of Microsoft, which processes it on our behalf. Microsoft commits to store certain Microsoft 365 customer data at rest in the United Kingdom, our committed data location. Microsoft may still process or access data in other countries, including the United States, to provide and secure the service. Under its data protection terms, transfers out of the UK are covered by the EU Standard Contractual Clauses with the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, and Microsoft also takes part in the UK Extension to the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

Who is responsible, and your rights

  • ArchResolved is a trading name. Matthew Davies, a UK sole trader trading as ArchResolved, is responsible for this information (the controller). You can contact them at hello@archresolved.com.
  • You can ask for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to our using it, by writing to hello@archresolved.com. You may also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk).

What your browser holds for this site

The website and Drawing to CAD share one address, so what they store in your browser sits together under archresolved.com. Our pages and Drawing to CAD store at most two entries, both Drawing to CAD’s, both in local storage. Our code sets no cookie, and uses no session storage, no IndexedDB and no offline copy.

  • archresolved.reviewer: the name you typed to sign, until you forget it.
  • archresolved.rightToConvert: your answer that you may convert your own drawings.

If this changes

If measurement, a contact form or anything else that collects information is added, this page will say what is collected, why, for how long and who processes it, before anything is collected. Anything that is not strictly necessary will ask for your consent first.
