Privacy Notice
Version 1.1 — 1 September 2026
This Notice applies only to wmco.work and explains how the Montenegro controller handles personal data. The Russian website has a separate policy and operator.
1. Data Controller
WELCOME MEDIA, entrepreneur, registered address: Barskih Logoraša 5, 85000 Bar, Montenegro
Privacy contact: web@wmco.work.
2. Personal Data We Collect
Please do not submit special-category or highly sensitive data in free-text fields unless specifically requested and lawfully agreed.
- enquiry details: name, email, telephone number, company, project description and deadline;
- communications and any information you choose to include in your message;
- technical data: IP address, request time, URL, referrer, User-Agent, browser and device details, cookie identifiers and website events;
- consent and notice records: document version, timestamp and marketing preference.
3. Purposes of Processing
- receive, review and respond to project enquiries;
- communicate with you and prepare a proposal, estimate or project assessment;
- take steps at your request before entering into a contract and perform a contract;
- secure, operate and troubleshoot the website;
- measure and improve the website where you consent to analytics;
- send occasional news and offers only where you separately opt in.
4. Legal Bases
- steps requested by you before a contract and performance of a contract;
- the controller's legitimate interests in responding to business enquiries, protecting the service and establishing or defending legal claims, balanced against your rights;
- compliance with legal obligations;
- your consent for optional analytics, the support chat and marketing communications, which you may withdraw at any time.
5. Contact and Project Enquiries
The required checkbox confirms that you have read this Notice; it is not presented as the sole legal basis for every processing activity. The optional marketing checkbox is separate and never affects your ability to submit an enquiry.
Enquiries are delivered to authorised staff through the Telegram Bot API. The submission record includes the applicable notice version and timestamp but does not intentionally add your IP address or User-Agent to the lead message.
6. Analytics and Cookies
Necessary storage remembers your cookie choice. Yandex Metrica analytics and the Tawk.to support chat are off by default. They load only after you actively enable the relevant category. Continuing to browse is not consent. Details are in the Cookie Policy.
7. Service Providers and Processors
Providers receive only the data needed for their role and act under applicable contractual and legal safeguards. Personal data may also be disclosed where required by law or necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
- the hosting provider for the wmco.work server — application hosting and security logs;
- Telegram / Telegram Bot API — delivery of project enquiries to authorised staff;
- Yandex Metrica (counter 109423011) — optional website analytics;
- Tawk.to Inc. — optional live support chat.
8. International Data Transfers
Some providers may process data outside Montenegro or the country where you live. Where data protected by the GDPR is transferred to a country without an adequacy decision, the controller relies on an applicable transfer mechanism such as Standard Contractual Clauses and supplementary safeguards, or another lawful derogation where appropriate. Contact us to request information about the safeguard used for a particular transfer.
9. Data Retention
Data is deleted or anonymised when no longer needed, unless a longer period is required by law or necessary for legal claims.
- unsuccessful enquiries and related correspondence: up to 3 years after the last substantive contact;
- contract records: for the contract term and applicable statutory accounting, tax and limitation periods;
- security logs: up to 12 months;
- marketing preference: until withdrawal, plus a minimal suppression record where needed to honour the withdrawal;
- cookie choice: up to 12 months or until you change it.
10. Security
We use access controls, encrypted transport, restricted credentials, software updates, backups and logging proportionate to the nature of the data. No Internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure; incidents are handled under applicable notification requirements.
11. Your Rights
- access your personal data and receive information about its processing;
- correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
- request erasure or restriction where the legal conditions apply;
- object to processing based on legitimate interests and object at any time to direct marketing;
- receive portable data where processing is automated and based on consent or contract;
- withdraw consent without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal;
- lodge a complaint with the Agency for Personal Data Protection and Free Access to Information of Montenegro or another competent supervisory authority.
12. Access, Correction and Deletion Requests
Email web@wmco.work with the subject “Privacy request”. Describe your request and provide enough information to locate the relevant record. We may verify your identity before disclosing or deleting data and will respond within the period required by applicable law.
13. Withdrawal of Consent
Cookie consent can be changed through “Cookie Settings” in the footer. Marketing consent may be withdrawn by emailing web@wmco.work or using the unsubscribe method in a message. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of earlier processing or processing required on another legal basis.
