2. Information we collect
We may collect information you choose to provide, including your name, work email, phone number, company, website, industry, market, growth goals, current challenges, preferred contact method, and other context submitted through a form or conversation.
We may also collect technical and attribution information such as IP address, browser and device data, referring page, landing page, UTM parameters, click identifiers, pages viewed, and form interaction data.
3. How we use information
- Respond to strategy, service, referral, career, or other requests.

- Maintain records, prevent abuse, and comply with legal obligations.

4. SMS and phone communications
Providing a phone number for a strategy request does not by itself create consent to recurring promotional SMS. If SMS marketing is offered, any required consent will be presented separately and will not be a condition of purchase. Message and data rates may apply.
5. Service providers and integrations
We may use service providers for hosting, analytics, CRM, communications, scheduling, forms, advertising measurement, security, and business operations. They may process information only as permitted by their agreements with us and applicable law.
6. Cookies and similar technologies
We use necessary storage for security and to remember your privacy choices. With your permission, we may use Google Analytics and advertising measurement technologies to understand site use, meaningful actions, and campaign performance. Optional analytics and advertising storage remain denied unless you grant them through the privacy choices panel, and you can change that choice at any time.
7. Data retention and security
We retain information for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, our business records, dispute prevention, security, and legal obligations. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards, but no internet transmission or storage method is completely secure.
8. Your choices
You may ask to access, correct, or delete information you submitted, or opt out of marketing communications. Rights can vary by location and may be subject to verification and legal exceptions.

This website and our services are directed to businesses and are not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this site.
