Privacy & cookies

The short version

We collect what you type into our forms so we can reply to you, and we measure which pages and ads bring inquiries in so we know where to spend. We do not sell your personal information, and we don't send marketing unless you asked for it. If you want your data gone, email us and it's gone.

What we collect

• What you give us. Your name, phone number, email, business name, current website, your trade or volume, and anything you write in the message box, when you fill in a form, book a call or apply for a role.
• How you got here. The ad, campaign, search or link that brought you, plus which page you landed on and which page you submitted from.
• Basic usage. Pages viewed and general performance data, so we can tell what's working.

We don't ask for and don't want payment details, Social Security numbers, or anything about your customers. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 16, and the site is not directed at children.

Why we use it

• To reply to you. Your inquiry is emailed to the two directors and kept so we can follow up and quote.
• To measure our marketing. Knowing which ad or page produced an inquiry tells us which to keep running and which to switch off.
• To run the site. Keeping it fast, secure and working.

Cookies, the Meta Pixel and analytics

Vercel's page counts are cookieless. When a Meta Pixel or Google Analytics id is set on this site, those tools use cookies to measure whether our ads actually produce inquiries.

If you choose Decline on the cookie notice, the Meta Pixel and Google Analytics are not loaded at all on this or any future visit. That is a real switch, not a banner that only hides itself. The site works exactly the same either way.

Using an ad pixel for measurement can count as "sharing" personal information for targeted advertising under some state privacy laws, including California's and Oregon's. Declining cookies opts you out of it on this site, and you can also opt out by email.

Who else processes it

We use a small number of providers to run the site. They process data on our behalf and under their own security terms. We do not sell or rent your details to anyone.

Marketing emails

Making an inquiry does not put you on a mailing list. If we ever email you about our services, every email has a working unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing takes effect immediately.

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, including California and Oregon, the law may give you these rights. We offer them to everyone, wherever you are:

• Know and see it. Ask what we hold about you, and for a copy.
• Delete it. Ask and we'll remove it, unless we're legally required to keep a record of work we did for you.
• Correct it. Tell us what's wrong and we'll fix it.
• Opt out. Of targeted advertising and any "sharing": decline on the cookie notice, clear this site's data in your browser to be asked again, or email us.
• No penalty. Using any of these rights never changes how we treat you.

To make a request, email info@social-agencies.com. We may ask you to confirm it's you before we act, and we reply within 45 days, usually far sooner. You can also make a request through an authorized agent.

How long we keep it

Inquiries are kept while there's a realistic chance of doing business, and records of actual client work are kept as long as we're required to. Ask us to delete something earlier and we will.

Changes

If what we collect or who processes it changes, this page changes with it, and the date at the top is updated.
