Information collected automatically

When you visit our website, some information is collected automatically through cookies, tracking pixels, and similar technologies:

• Google Analytics: Pages you visit, time spent on the site, how you found us, your general geographic region, device type, and browser. This data is used to understand site usage and improve the experience.
• Google Ads: Conversion tracking data (whether you arrived via a Google ad and what actions you took), and remarketing data used to show you relevant ads on other sites in the Google Display Network.
• Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram): Page visits, form submissions, and other on-site actions, used to measure ad effectiveness and build retargeting audiences for Facebook and Instagram advertising.
• Mapbox: Our contact and about pages use Mapbox for interactive maps. Mapbox may collect basic usage data when the map loads.
• Server logs: Your IP address, browser type, and the pages you request. This is standard for all web servers.

We are a digital marketing agency and we use standard advertising and analytics tracking on our own site. For full details about the cookies and tracking technologies we use, see our Cookie Policy.

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To respond to you: When you fill out a contact form, we use your information to reply to your inquiry

• To maintain our systems: Server logs help us identify and fix technical issues

Here's who may have access to your information:

• Our team: Employees and contractors who need it to do their work (like responding to your form submission)

What we will never do:

• Sell your personal data to data brokers or third parties
• Rent or trade your contact information

Note: Data shared with advertising platforms (Google, Meta) for ad targeting and measurement is part of the standard operation of those platforms and is governed by their respective data processing terms, not ours.
