Important: This privacy policy explains our practices in plain language.
We believe you deserve to understand exactly how your data is handled without wading
through legal jargon that nobody actually reads.
When you reach out to us about data analysis projects, we
collect information that helps us understand your needs and deliver effective solutions.
This includes:
Contact Information: Your name, email address, phone number, and
company details when you get in touch with us
Project Details: Information about your business challenges, data
requirements, and specific goals for analysis programs
Business Data: Any datasets, files, or system information you share
with us for analysis and program development
Communication Records: Our email exchanges, meeting notes, and project
discussions to maintain continuity
Technical Information: Website usage data, IP addresses, and browser
information when you visit our site
We use your information exclusively for legitimate business
purposes related to providing data analysis services. Here's what that actually means in
practice:
Service Delivery: Creating custom data analysis programs, generating
insights, and delivering the solutions you've requested
Project Management: Coordinating timelines, tracking progress, and
ensuring your project meets expectations
Communication: Sending project updates, answering questions, and
maintaining professional correspondence
Quality Improvement: Understanding how our services perform and where
we can enhance our data analysis capabilities
Legal Compliance: Meeting our professional obligations and maintaining
proper business records
Your business data is valuable, and we treat it that way.
We've implemented security measures that protect your information throughout our working
relationship:
Encrypted Storage: All client data is stored using industry-standard
encryption both at rest and in transit
Access Controls: Only authorized team members working on your project
can access your specific data
Secure Communications: We use protected channels for sharing sensitive
information and project files
Regular Backups: Your data is backed up securely to prevent loss while
maintaining confidentiality
System Updates: Our security systems receive regular updates to
protect against emerging threats
We don't sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Period. However, there are specific situations where we may share information:
With Your Permission: When you explicitly authorize us to share
information with third parties for project purposes
Service Providers: Trusted partners who assist with specific technical
aspects of your project, bound by confidentiality agreements
Legal Requirements: When required by law, court orders, or legal
processes, though we'll notify you when possible
Business Protection: To protect our rights, property, or safety, or
that of our clients or others, in extreme circumstances
We keep your information only as long as necessary for
business and legal purposes. Here's our approach to data retention:
Active Projects: During our working relationship, we maintain all
necessary project data and communications
Completed Projects: We retain project files for two years after
completion to provide ongoing support and reference
Contact Information: Basic contact details may be kept for future
business opportunities unless you request removal
Legal Records: Some information is retained longer to meet
professional and legal obligations
Deletion Requests: You can request deletion of your personal data at
any time, subject to legal requirements
You have real control over your personal information. These
aren't just legal requirements – they're practical rights you can actually exercise:
Access: Request a copy of the personal information we have about you
and how we're using it
Correction: Ask us to update or correct any inaccurate personal
information in our records
Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data, with some exceptions
for legal and business requirements
Portability: Get a copy of your data in a format that allows you to
transfer it elsewhere
Objection: Object to certain types of data processing, particularly
for marketing purposes
Restriction: Ask us to limit how we process your personal information
in specific circumstances
Our website uses standard web technologies to function
properly and improve your experience. We're transparent about what these do:
Essential Cookies: Required for the website to work properly,
including security and basic functionality
Analytics: Help us understand how visitors use our site so we can make
improvements
Performance: Allow us to optimize loading times and user experience
across different devices
No Tracking: We don't use cookies for behavioral advertising or
cross-site tracking
We primarily operate within the United States, but digital
business sometimes involves data crossing borders. When this happens, we ensure your
information remains protected through appropriate safeguards and security measures
equivalent to what we provide domestically.
Business practices evolve, and privacy policies need to
reflect those changes. When we update this policy, we'll notify you through email if the
changes significantly affect how we handle your personal information. For minor updates,
we'll post the revised policy on our website with a new effective date.
Questions or Concerns? Privacy shouldn't be complicated. If anything in
this policy isn't clear, or if you have questions about how we handle your information,
just ask. We'd rather have a conversation than leave you wondering.
