04. Ad-Tech Infrastructure: GA4 & Meta Conversions API (CAPI)
As an advanced performance marketing agency, HandiAds utilizes modern, privacy-compliant tracking standards:
Google Analytics 4 (GA4):
We use Google Analytics 4 with IP anonymization enabled. GA4 measures website navigation patterns, engagement metrics, and session duration without storing personally identifiable information (PII).
Meta Conversions API (Server-Side CAPI):
Unlike traditional browser cookies that fail due to iOS ad blockers, Meta CAPI creates an encrypted server-to-server connection. When a high-intent consultation is requested, event parameters (like lead status) are hashed using SHA-256 before transmission to Meta’s graph API, ensuring maximum encryption and zero browser cookie leakage.
05. Storage, Infrastructure & Zero 3rd-Party Resale
Our infrastructure partners are enterprise-certified:
- Database Engine: Supabase PostgreSQL with SOC2 Type II certification, end-to-end TLS encryption in transit, and AES-256 encryption at rest.
- Transactional Email: Resend API adhering to strict zero-retention email sending and DKIM/SPF domain verification.
- Video Conferencing: Google Meet enterprise infrastructure powered by Google Cloud security protocols.
06. Cookie Preferences & Local Storage
HandiAds deploys a transparent Cookie Consent Banner allowing users to toggle functional, analytics, and marketing cookies.
Your preferences are saved locally on your device via localStorage. You can revoke or reset your consent at any time by clicking "Cookie Settings" in our website footer or clearing your browser cache.
07. Your Legal Rights (DPDP Act 2023 & GDPR)
As a data principal under Indian and international privacy laws, you possess the right to:
- Request a copy of any personal data stored in our CRM/ERP system.
