02 · Data
What we collect and why.
Motark's site has four surfaces that collect personal data — the contact enquiry form, the sample request flow, the wholesale quote flow, and the Updates signup. We also collect minimal technical data automatically for security purposes.
Contact enquiry data
- Fields
- Name · business email · company · phone (optional) · enquiry topic · free-text message
- Purpose
- Respond to your enquiry and route it to the relevant team (wholesale, custom development, IP licensing, regulatory, banking, media, or other).
Sample request data
- Fields
- All contact enquiry fields plus compound of interest · sample quantity · full shipping address (street, city, state/region, postal code, country)
- Purpose
- Confirm intended use, importer of record, and any required jurisdiction-specific documentation, then dispatch the sample where compliant.
Quote request data
- Fields
- Contact enquiry fields plus compound and specification · annual volume · origin region preference · destination market
- Purpose
- Prepare a commercial quotation through the relevant Motark partner network.
Updates signup data
- Fields
- Business email · first name (optional) · explicit subscription consent
- Purpose
- Send occasional Motark Updates — opt-in notifications when we add to the compound register, publish new insights, or change regulatory posture. No committed cadence; we email when there is something worth noting. You may unsubscribe at any time using the link in any Update email.
Technical data (automatic)
- Fields
- IP address · user-agent string · request timestamps · referrer (for our security middleware and rate-limit enforcement)
- Purpose
- Detect and block abusive submissions, bot traffic, and other security events. Not used for marketing or profiling.
03 · Lawful basis
On what basis we process.
Performance of, or steps prior to, a B2B contract
Where you submit an enquiry, sample request, or quote request, we process your data to respond to and progress that commercial engagement.
Explicit consent
Motark Updates are sent on the basis of explicit opt-in consent. We do not add contact-form submitters to the Updates list automatically.
Legitimate business interest
Minimal technical data (IP, user-agent, request timestamp) is collected and short-lived for the purpose of operating site security and rate limits. We balance this against your privacy interests and use only what is necessary.
Legal obligation
Where personal data is retained as part of counterparty diligence records to meet Motark's banking, AML, and audit obligations — see the AML/KYC section on Operations & Compliance.
04 · Third parties

05 · Cookies
Cookies we set.
Strictly necessary only. We do not use advertising, retargeting, or cross-site tracking cookies.
CSRF token cookie
Strictly necessary
- HttpOnly · SameSite=Strict · scoped to /api · ~1 hour lifetime. Required for the double-submit cookie pattern that protects form submissions against cross-site request forgery.
Google reCAPTCHA cookies
Strictly necessary (bot detection)
- Set by Google when the reCAPTCHA script runs on form pages. Used to detect automated traffic. Governed by Google's privacy policy.
06 · Retention
How long we keep it.
The seven-year horizon matches Motark's broader documentation retention policy — counterparty correspondence is treated as part of the audit trail.
- Contact enquiry records
- Retained for 7 years from the date of last related correspondence, consistent with Motark's documentation retention policy.
- Sample request records
- Retained for 7 years. Where a sample shipment occurred, dispatch records are retained for the same period.
- Updates list
- Retained until you unsubscribe. After unsubscribe, an email-suppression record is retained indefinitely so we do not re-add you.
- Security logs (IP, user-agent, rate-limit events)
- Short-lived — rotated according to platform defaults. Not retained alongside contact records.
- Analytics data
- Retained per Vercel Analytics policy; Motark holds no separate analytics database.
