Information you provide
A sourcing request may include your name, business email, optional phone number, company, product choice and procurement description. The description can contain intended duty, configuration, quantity, destination, requested delivery window, inspection and document requirements, optional budget and supplier preference. Website comments may include a name, email and message.
How information is used
Submitted information may be used to understand the request, identify missing fields, organize candidate supplier outreach, compare responses, answer questions and maintain the website workflow. The optional budget and high-end, mid-range, budget or undecided preference are buyer inputs for trade-off discussion; they are not supplier ratings.
Supplier and service-provider disclosure
Relevant procurement details may need to be shared with candidate factories or service providers so they can respond. Only provide material you are authorized to share. A supplier’s own privacy, commercial and document-handling terms may apply when the buyer continues a direct discussion or contract.
Cookies and local browser storage
The website may use technical storage needed for navigation, form behavior and the sourcing-benefit notice. The notice records the first display time in local storage for a maximum seven-day display window and remembers ticker closure in session storage. These controls do not restart the eligibility window when the page is refreshed.
Data quality and minimization
Provide only information needed to evaluate the business request. Use general route or site descriptions until exact locations are necessary. Drawings, identification documents, VIN records, payment data and other sensitive files should not be placed into a text form. Ask for an appropriate transfer method after contact is established.
Retention and security
Information may be retained as reasonably needed to manage the request, document communications, prevent misuse and meet applicable obligations. No internet transmission or storage method can be described as risk-free. Buyers should avoid submitting secrets or regulated personal data through this public website form.
Your choices
You may choose not to provide optional phone, budget or supplier-preference information. If required contact and request information is not supplied, a sourcing inquiry may not be actionable. Requests concerning submitted information should identify the business email, approximate submission date and product context through the contact form.
Scope and changes
This policy covers this website’s sourcing inquiry and editorial interactions. It does not replace the policies of a selected manufacturer, inspector, carrier, payment provider or destination-side adviser. The posted policy may change when the website workflow or applicable obligations change.
