Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

This Privacy Policy applies to melikyan.archi, operated by Melikyan Architects, 37 Moskovyan Street, First Floor, Yerevan 0009, Republic of Armenia. For privacy-related enquiries, contact us at contact@melikyan.archi.

2. What Data We Collect

We do not operate contact forms or user accounts. The only data collected when you visit this Site is gathered automatically through Google Analytics, and includes:

• Pages visited and time spent on the Site
• Approximate geographic location (country/city level)
• Device type, browser, and operating system
• Referring website or search query

This data is aggregated and anonymised. We do not collect names, email addresses, or any personally identifiable information through the Site itself.

If you contact us directly by email or telephone, we retain that correspondence for the purpose of responding to your enquiry.

3. Cookies

This Site uses cookies placed by Google Analytics to collect the anonymised usage data described above. These are analytics cookies and do not track you for advertising purposes.

You may disable cookies at any time through your browser settings. Disabling cookies will not affect your ability to use the Site, but will prevent analytics data from being collected during your visit.

For more information on how Google handles analytics data, see Google’s Privacy Policy.

4. How We Use Data

Analytics data is used solely to understand how the Site is used — which pages are visited, where visitors come from, and how the Site performs — in order to improve the content and experience. We do not sell, rent, or share this data with third parties beyond Google Analytics’ standard data processing.

5. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

For visitors from the European Economic Area, our legal basis for processing analytics data is our legitimate interest in understanding Site usage (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). This processing is anonymised and aggregated — it is not attributable to individuals.

The only personal data we may hold about you is email correspondence you have sent us directly. You have the right to request access to or deletion of that correspondence by contacting us at contact@melikyan.archi. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in your country of residence.

6. Data Retention

Google Analytics data is retained for 26 months by default, after which it is automatically deleted. Email correspondence is retained for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was sent, and deleted thereafter.

7. Third-Party Services

This Site links to tours.digital, which operates under its own privacy policy. We are not responsible for data collected by third-party services once you leave this Site.

8. Children’s Privacy

This Site is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The date of the most recent revision is shown at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
