Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 27 September 2026
1. Who We Are
East Bridge is a China-focused manufacturing and sourcing consultancy. We help businesses in the EU sourcing and manufacturing in China source, manufacture, and ship physical products through Chinese factories. We coordinate sourcing and production through a combination of remote management and on-site work in China. East Bridge operates this website to provide information about our services and to allow potential clients to get in touch with us.
It is East Bridge’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your personal data. By using this website, you agree to the terms described in this Privacy Policy.
2. Website Visitors
Like most website operators, East Bridge collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. East Bridge’s purpose in collecting non-personally-identifying information is to better understand how visitors use our website and to improve the overall experience we provide. From time to time, East Bridge may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, for example by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
East Bridge also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for users who submit enquiries through our contact form or interact with the website in other meaningful ways. This information is handled with the same care and discretion as personally-identifying information, as described below.
3. Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to the East Bridge website choose to interact with us in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information we gather depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, visitors who submit our contact form are asked to provide their name, email address, company name, and a description of their project or enquiry. A phone number may be given but is optional; the form never requires one and we do not ask for one in order to reply.
Booking a consultation is a separate flow that holds different data. Consultations are booked through the Cal.com booking embed on our contact page, not through the contact form. That flow collects your name, email address, the time slot and time zone you select, and your answers to the questions attached to the event type. It does not collect a phone number.
East Bridge collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with us. We do not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described in this policy. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the understanding that it may prevent them from submitting enquiries or engaging in certain website-related activities.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your enquiries, consultation requests, and messages submitted via our contact form
- Understand your sourcing, manufacturing, and logistics needs in order to provide relevant guidance
- Improve the content, structure, and functionality of our website
- Communicate with you about our services, where you have expressed interest or given consent
- Comply with any applicable legal obligations. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.
Legal basis. Where the General Data Protection Regulation applies, we process enquiry and booking data on the basis of steps taken at your request prior to entering into a contract, and on the basis of our legitimate interest in responding to business enquiries addressed to us.
Retention. We keep enquiry and booking data for 24 months from our last contact with you, after which it is deleted.
5. Aggregated Statistics
East Bridge may collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its website. For instance, we may monitor the most popular pages on our site or analyse general traffic patterns to improve our content and user experience. East Bridge may display this information publicly or provide it to others in aggregated, anonymised form. However, East Bridge does not disclose personally-identifying information as part of these statistics.
6. Protection of Personally-Identifying Information
East Bridge discloses personally-identifying information only to those employees, contractors, and service providers that need to know that information in order to operate our website, process enquiries, or deliver services on our behalf, and who have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of these parties may be located outside of your home country. By using the East Bridge website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.
East Bridge will not rent or sell personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its service providers as described above, East Bridge discloses personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order, or other governmental request, or when East Bridge believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of East Bridge, third parties, or the public at large.
If you have submitted your contact details via our website, East Bridge may occasionally send you an email to follow up on your enquiry, provide updates relevant to your project, or share information about our services. We keep such communications to a minimum and respect your preference if you choose to opt out at any time.
East Bridge takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorised access, use, alteration, or destruction of personally-identifying information.
7. Cookies
A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. This website sets no cookies of its own. We do not use cookies to identify you, to track you between visits, or to remember preferences.
Our website analytics are provided by Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless: it sets no cookie and does not fingerprint or track individual visitors across sites.
One exception applies. The contact page carries a booking embed provided by Cal.com. That embed is a third-party service and may set its own cookies or use similar storage when you load or interact with it. Those cookies are set by Cal.com, not by East Bridge, and are governed by Cal.com’s own privacy policy.
Visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using the East Bridge website. Please be aware that certain features of the website may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
8. Third-Party Services
East Bridge uses a number of third-party services to operate and improve its website, including:
- Cloudflare — website hosting, serverless functions that process contact form submissions, Turnstile bot protection on the contact form, and Web Analytics. Cloudflare may collect technical data about your visit as part of its standard hosting operations.
- Resend — email delivery. Contact form submissions are delivered to us by email through Resend.
- Google Sheets — enquiry log. Contact form submissions are recorded in a private spreadsheet so that no enquiry is lost.
- Cal.com — consultation booking. If you book a consultation, the details you provide to the booking embed are processed by Cal.com.
Transfers outside Moldova. East Bridge is established in the Republic of Moldova, and the processors listed above are established elsewhere. Where personal data is transferred to a processor outside Moldova, that transfer is carried out under standard contractual clauses.
East Bridge is not responsible for the privacy practices of any third-party websites or services that may be linked to from our website. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external sites before providing them with personal information.
9. Data Security
East Bridge takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. We use trusted third-party platforms with industry-standard security practices, including encryption where applicable. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Your Rights (GDPR and International)

11. Business Transfers
If East Bridge, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired by a third party, or in the unlikely event that East Bridge goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets transferred or acquired. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of East Bridge may continue to use your personal information as set out in this policy.

The East Bridge website is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at info@east-bridge.pro and we will take steps to delete such information.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
Although most changes are likely to be minor, East Bridge may update this Privacy Policy from time to time at its sole discretion. We encourage visitors to check this page regularly for any changes. Your continued use of the East Bridge website after any change to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
