PRIVACY POLICY

Last updated: March 11, 2026

River Microelectronics LLC ("RiverMicro," "we," "us," or "our") operates https://rivermicro.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through the site, how we use it, and the choices available to you.

Information We Collect
----------------------

We may collect:

  - Contact form information you submit, including your name, email address, message, reCAPTCHA response, and the IP address used to submit the form.
  - Chat information you submit, including your name, chat messages, uploaded .zip files, and the IP address associated with the chat session.
  - Technical and session information needed to operate the site, including HTTP request data, server logs, and secure session cookies used for chat and admin access.

How We Use Information
----------------------

We use this information to:

  - respond to inquiries and deliver requested support;
  - operate and secure the contact form and live chat;
  - prevent abuse, spam, and unauthorized access;
  - troubleshoot, maintain, and improve the site; and
  - comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

Cookies and Session IDs
-----------------------

The site uses secure, HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax cookies to maintain chat and admin sessions. These cookies help associate messages with the correct session and support the chat experience. They are not used to serve advertising.

Chat Retention
--------------

Chat messages and uploaded files are stored temporarily in server memory so the chat feature can function. Conversation data may be removed when:

  - a visitor goes offline and the conversation expires;
  - the server restarts; or
  - retention limits are reached.

Because chat data is stored temporarily, do not use the chat feature to send confidential, export-controlled, or otherwise sensitive information unless you have confirmed that it is appropriate to do so.

Contact Form Delivery
---------------------

Contact form submissions are sent to us by email using configured mail services. Please do not include information you would not want transmitted by email.

Third-Party Services
--------------------

We use Google reCAPTCHA on the contact form to help prevent spam and abuse. Google may collect information as described in its own policies:

https://policies.google.com/privacy
https://policies.google.com/terms

We may also use email service providers or hosting providers as needed to operate the site.

How We Share Information
------------------------

We do not sell personal information collected through the site. We may share information:

  - with service providers who help us operate the site or deliver messages;
  - when required by law or legal process;
  - to protect the security, rights, or property of RiverMicro, our users, or others; or
  - in connection with a business transfer, merger, or asset sale.

Data Security
-------------

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Choices
------------

You may choose not to submit the contact form, use chat, or upload files. If you want to request access, correction, or deletion of information we reasonably can identify, contact us using the details below. Depending on where you live, you may have additional privacy rights under applicable law.

Children's Privacy
------------------

The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the site.
