1. Who we are

Happy Sad Mi is a team of IT professionals based in the Philippines, providing web development, software development, data analytics, technical support and virtual assistance. This notice explains what happens to information you share with us through this website.

2. What we collect

Information you give us

When you use the contact form on this site, we collect the details you enter:

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • An optional subject line
  • Your message, including any project details you choose to share

Please do not send confidential information, passwords, payment details or government IDs through this form.

Information collected automatically

If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics records information such as the pages you visit, the approximate region you are connecting from, your browser type and device, and referring pages. IP addresses are anonymised before storage.

If you use the chat assistant

The chat assistant on this site is provided by Cloudflare. If you send it a message, the text of that message and the preceding turns of that conversation are transmitted to Cloudflare's infrastructure so it can be answered.

We do not store chat messages. Your conversation is kept only in your own browser while the page is open, is never written to our records, and is cleared when you close or reload the page.

To reduce what is transmitted, messages that appear to contain an email address, a mobile number, or a request for the assistant to record something are answered with a canned response without ever being sent to the AI model.

The assistant cannot quote prices, schedules or deliverables, and it will ask you to use the contact form instead. It is not able to make commitments on our behalf. If you would rather not use it, the contact form reaches the same inbox.

We do not ask for and do not want special category or sensitive personal information through this website.

3. Why we use it

  • To reply to your enquiry and discuss your project.
  • To keep a record of conversations about work we have quoted or are performing.
  • To understand which parts of the website are useful so we can improve it — only when you have accepted analytics.

We do not sell your information, and we do not share it for advertising.

4. Cookies and analytics

This site uses no cookies that are required for the website to function. There is no login, no shopping cart and no advertising tracker.

The only optional cookies come from Google Analytics, and they are set only if you accept them. When you decline, Analytics runs in a limited, cookieless mode that records no identifiers and sets no cookies.

Your choice is remembered in your browser's local storage so we do not ask again on later visits. Clearing your browser data will reset it and the banner will appear again.

Cookies and storage used on this website
Name Purpose Type
hsm-consent Remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics Local storage, essential
_ga Distinguishes visitors for analytics reporting Cookie, optional
_ga_WTDKF7Z8ZC Persists analytics state across page loads Cookie, optional

To change your decision later, clear this site's data in your browser settings — the banner will then appear again.

5. Third parties

We use a small number of external services. None of them can see your contact form details unless you submit it:

External services
Service Purpose What it receives
Web3Forms Delivers contact form submissions to our inbox The name, email, subject and message you submit
Cloudflare Hosts the website and runs the chat assistant Chat messages you type, and standard request data such as your IP address. Chat content is not stored
Google Analytics Anonymous usage measurement Page views, device and region — only if you accept
Google Fonts Serves the Inter and Poppins web fonts Standard request data such as your IP address and browser
Font Awesome Serves the icon font Standard request data

6. How long we keep it

Enquiry emails are kept for as long as needed to deal with your request and any resulting project, and are then deleted. Google Analytics stores data in aggregated form for up to 14 months.

7. Your rights

Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) of the Philippines, you have the right to be informed about the processing of your personal information, to access it, to have it corrected, to have it erased or blocked, and to object to its processing.

If you are in the EEA, UK or Switzerland, the same rights apply to you under the GDPR, including the right to data portability and to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.

Because contact details are delivered to an inbox, there may be a short delay while we locate and action a request. If you used the chat assistant, your messages were never stored in the first place, so there is nothing to retrieve from.

8. Contact us

For any privacy question, correction or deletion request, email happysadmi@gmail.com. We will respond as soon as we reasonably can.
