How We Collect Information
Project inquiries are submitted through Netlify Forms (opens in a new tab), a service provided by Netlify. Netlify processes and stores form submissions on our behalf.
The website may also generate ordinary technical information necessary to deliver and secure the website, such as IP addresses, browser information, and request information through our hosting and service providers.
We use Ketch to manage website privacy preferences and consent choices. Ketch may process technical information necessary to provide these privacy controls and maintain records of visitor preferences.
How We Use Information
We use information you provide to:
- Respond to your inquiry.
- Evaluate whether a project may be a good fit.
- Communicate about requested services.
- Establish or maintain a business relationship.
- Maintain appropriate business records.
- Protect the security and integrity of the website and our services.
Submitting a project inquiry does not subscribe you to marketing communications.
How We Share Information
We do not sell personal information.
Information may be disclosed to service providers when reasonably necessary to operate the website or conduct our business. This currently includes Netlify, which provides website hosting and form processing, and Ketch, which provides privacy preference and consent management.
Information may also be disclosed when required by law or legal process, or when reasonably necessary to protect our rights, safety, security, or property.
Third-Party Services and Links
This website may contain links to third-party websites and services, such as LinkedIn and Google Calendar. Visiting or using those services is subject to their own privacy practices and policies.
The website provides a link to Google Calendar for scheduling introductory project discussions. Scheduling occurs through Google's service rather than directly through this website.
If additional services such as analytics are added in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated as appropriate.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
This website may use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary to operate the website and provide privacy-management functionality.
We currently do not use cookies or similar technologies for website analytics or targeted advertising.
We use Ketch to provide privacy controls and manage applicable privacy preferences. Where available, you may use the privacy control provided on the website to review or manage your preferences.
Data Retention
We retain project inquiries and related information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the inquiry, evaluate or maintain a business relationship, and satisfy applicable business, accounting, legal, or security requirements.
We periodically review stored information and may delete information that is no longer reasonably necessary for these purposes.
Netlify stores submissions made through Netlify Forms. Netlify provides controls that allow us to permanently delete individual form submissions.
Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the information we collect.
The website uses HTTPS to protect information transmitted between your browser and the website. Our hosting and form-processing provider also maintains security measures for information processed through its services.
However, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Your Choices
You may contact us to:
- Ask what personal information you have provided to us.
- Request correction of inaccurate information.
- Request deletion of information you have provided.
Requests may be subject to applicable legal, accounting, security, or business-record requirements.
You may also choose not to provide optional information requested by the Contact form.
