Privacy policy
Operator and scope
iotpentest.net is an educational resource operated by SEQ SIA (OffSeq), registration number 40203410806, Lastādijas iela 12 k-3, Riga, LV-1050, Latvia. The site has no user accounts, no newsletter and no comments. We receive personal data only when you send it through the enquiry form or by email.
The attack surface mapper
The device attack surface mapper runs entirely in your browser. Your selections are held in the page only: they are not sent to OffSeq, not written to browser storage, not added to outbound links and not included in any analytics event. Reloading the page returns the tool to its default selection. It is educational and does not inspect your device, your network or your accounts.
The enquiry form
Only the email address is required. If you provide them, we also receive your name, the topic you chose and your message. With them we receive the address of the page and the position of the form the request was sent from, the time it was sent and the country that Cloudflare derives from the connection. The IP address is not included in the message and is not stored; Cloudflare uses it briefly to limit the number of requests and deter automated spam. Your attack surface mapper selections are not attached to the request.
To tell people apart from automated spam, the form uses Cloudflare Turnstile. It loads only once you start filling in or submit the form and assesses technical browser and connection signals, such as the IP address and browser user agent; we do not pass what you type into the form to it. Cloudflare performs this check as our processor and also uses the signals, as an independent controller, to improve its bot detection (Turnstile Privacy Addendum). Our server receives only the result of the check and does not store it. To catch mistyped addresses, after you submit, our server looks up the email domain (the part after @) in Cloudflare’s public DNS; only the domain is sent. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in protecting the form from abuse (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
We use these details only to answer your request and, if you ask for one, to prepare a service proposal. The legal basis is steps taken at your request before entering into a contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR) and, for questions unrelated to a service, the operator’s legitimate interest in answering correspondence it receives (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). Providing the details is voluntary; without an email address we cannot reply.
The request is delivered as an email to the SEQ SIA mailbox by Cloudflare’s email service, acting as a processor. It is received and handled by the SEQ SIA staff who answer enquiries. We keep requests for up to 12 months after our last contact with you; if we enter into a contract, correspondence is kept for as long as the contract and applicable law require. Analytics records only that a request was sent successfully and the position of the form, never the details you entered.
Technical requests and traffic measurement
Serving a page through Cloudflare involves technical request data, including an IP address, browser headers, the requested URL and the request time. These data support delivery, security and operation of the site.
The site sends page views, clicks on OffSeq service and contact links, and successful enquiry form submissions to our self-hosted Plausible service at in.ainalytic.net. Events include the site domain, the public page address, limited campaign parameters and the referring site’s origin where available. A link-click event adds only the destination path and a static placement label such as header, hero or guide. A form-submission event adds only the static placement label of the form. Mapper selections are never sent. The application sets no analytics cookies and no persistent visitor identifier; the collector receives technical network information with the request. Cookieless measurement is still processing of data.
Measurement is disabled when the browser signals Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control, or when this site’s local-storage preference plausible_ignore is true. It is also disabled for previews, local development and recognised automation. OffSeq links may carry static referral labels identifying the resource and the link placement; these labels never contain tool selections.
Purpose, legal basis and retention
We use technical request data to operate and secure the site, and page-view, link-click and form-submission statistics to understand how the resource is used and how much interest there is in OffSeq services. The operator’s stated legal basis for these purposes is legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Hosting and infrastructure providers process requests on our behalf; the analytics service is self-hosted. Data are kept only as long as needed for those purposes and any applicable legal obligation. The operator’s privacy policy sets out its retention criteria, providers and transfer safeguards.
Contact and external links
If you email support@offseq.com, we receive the address, the message and anything you choose to include, so that we can reply. Email correspondence is handled and retained in the same way as enquiry form requests. OffSeq service links and the primary sources cited in the bench notes take you to sites with their own privacy notices.
Your rights
Subject to the conditions in the GDPR, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability, and you may object to processing. Contact support@offseq.com. You may also complain to Latvia’s Data State Inspectorate (Datu valsts inspekcija) or to the supervisory authority where you live or work. The cookie and browser-storage notice explains the one preference this site stores.
