This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we protect it, and the rights available to you regarding your personal information.

2. Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with our website, we may collect the following categories of information.

2.1 Information You Provide to Us

When you submit an inquiry, request a quotation, use an online product selection form, contact us, or otherwise communicate with us, you may provide information including:

• Name
• Company name
• Country or region
• Business type
• Email address

• Water source information
• Required flow rate and total dynamic head

2.2 Information Collected Automatically

When you access our website, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:

• IP address
• Browser type
• Device type
• Operating system
• Approximate geographic location derived from IP address
• Referring website or advertising source
• Pages visited
• Time and duration of visits
• Website interactions
• Cookie identifiers and similar technical identifiers

We collect this information through our server logs and the strictly necessary cookies that serve the pages and receive an inquiry form. This website runs no analytics service; the only advertising technology it runs is the Meta Pixel, and it is activated only after a visitor accepts advertising and marketing cookies, so none of the information above is collected by it before then.

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use personal information for the following purposes:

• Responding to inquiries and RFQs
• Preparing quotations
• Recommending suitable solar pumps, pump inverters, controllers, and system configurations
• Performing pump selection, PV sizing, and system matching
• Providing technical and installation support
• Communicating about orders, production, delivery, and after-sales service
• Managing customer and distributor relationships
• Improving our products, website, and services
• Understanding how visitors use our website
• Measuring the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising
• Preventing fraud, misuse, and security threats
• Maintaining business and transaction records
• Complying with applicable legal and regulatory obligations
• Establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims

Where permitted by applicable law, we may also contact existing or prospective business customers regarding relevant HOBER products, solutions, technical information, or business opportunities.

You may request that we stop sending marketing communications at any time.

4. Legal Bases for Processing

Where the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) or similar laws apply, we process personal data based on one or more appropriate legal bases, including:

Contractual necessity: where processing is necessary to respond to a request, prepare a quotation, process an order, or perform a contract.

Legitimate interests: where processing is reasonably necessary for our B2B operations, customer service, website security, business development, and improvement of our products and services, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.

Consent: where applicable law requires your consent, including for certain cookies, analytics, advertising technologies, or marketing communications.

Legal obligations: where processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, accounting requirements, customs requirements, or lawful government requests.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website uses the cookies and similar technologies that are necessary to serve the pages and to receive an inquiry form, and — only once a visitor accepts them — the advertising cookies set by the Meta Pixel. We run no analytics service, and no visitor is measured, profiled or retargeted before accepting advertising and marketing cookies in the consent bar shown on the first visit.

The third parties our pages reach are set out in our Cookie Policy: the Meta Pixel, loaded only after a visitor accepts it; the still picture of a clip on the Videos page, requested from YouTube's image host; and the player that is loaded from youtube-nocookie.com only after a visitor presses a card. The social and WhatsApp links in our pages are ordinary links and load nothing until they are followed.

The advertising technology we run is named here and in our Cookie Policy: the Meta Pixel, provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited for visitors in the European Economic Area and by Meta Platforms, Inc. elsewhere, which reports the pages a visitor reads to Meta. It is activated only after the visitor consents — before that, no information is sent to Meta — and that consent can be changed or withdrawn at any time through Cookie Settings in the footer of every page. If we introduce analytics or another advertising technology, this section will name it in the same way, and it will be activated only after obtaining the visitor's consent where applicable law requires it.

For more information, please review our Cookie Policy.

6. Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell personal information.

We may share information where reasonably necessary with service providers that support our business, including:

• Website hosting and infrastructure providers
• Cloud service providers
• Email and communications providers
• CRM and customer-management providers
• Logistics and shipping providers
• Payment and banking service providers
• IT and cybersecurity providers
• Professional advisers, auditors, and legal advisers

We engage no analytics provider. Our one advertising provider is Meta, whose pixel is loaded on this website only after a visitor accepts advertising and marketing cookies. If we engage another, it will be named in this section and in our Cookie Policy.

These parties may process information only as necessary to provide their services or as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

We may also disclose information when required by law, regulation, court order, government authority, or where reasonably necessary to protect our legal rights, customers, systems, or property.

7. International Data Transfers

HOBER operates internationally and is based in China.

If you access our website or communicate with us from another country or region, including the European Economic Area (“EEA”), your information may be transferred to and processed in China or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate.

Where applicable law requires specific safeguards for international transfers, we will use appropriate legal mechanisms and safeguards as required.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including customer service, quotation history, technical support, contractual obligations, accounting requirements, dispute resolution, and legal compliance.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the nature of our relationship with you.

When personal information is no longer reasonably required, we will delete, anonymize, or otherwise securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, misuse, loss, or destruction.

However, no internet transmission, website, email system, or electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:

• Request access to your personal information
• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
• Request deletion of personal information
• Request restriction of certain processing
• Object to certain processing
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Request data portability where applicable
• Obtain information about how your personal information is processed
• Lodge a complaint with an applicable data protection authority

These rights are subject to applicable legal conditions and exceptions.

sales@hobertek.com

We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

11. Marketing Communications

If you receive marketing communications from us, you may request to stop receiving them at any time by:

• Using an unsubscribe option where provided; or
• Contacting us at sales@hobertek.com.

Stopping marketing communications does not prevent us from sending necessary transactional, order-related, technical-support, or service communications.

12. Third-Party Websites and Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, platforms, or communication services.

Third-party services operate independently and may have their own privacy policies and data-processing practices.

HOBER is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites or services.

We recommend reviewing the applicable privacy policies before providing personal information to third parties.

13. Children's Privacy

Our website and products are intended for business and professional users and are not directed to children.

We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children through this website.

If we become aware that personal information from a child has been collected in circumstances where applicable law requires parental or guardian authorization, we will take appropriate steps in accordance with applicable law.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when our website, technologies, business practices, or legal obligations change.

The updated version will be published on this page and the “Last Updated” date will be revised accordingly.

We encourage visitors to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
