Privacy Policy

Scope

This Privacy Policy explains how Bozeman SEO handles personal information when you visit this website, contact us, request a proposal, or work with us as a client.

A client agreement may include additional privacy or security terms for a specific engagement.

Information we collect

We may collect information in three practical ways:

• Information you provide, such as your name, email address, business details, messages, project materials, and approvals.
• Information created during a client relationship, such as proposals, invoices, meeting notes, deliverables, and account access that you authorize us to use.
• Basic technical records produced when the website is requested, such as an IP address, browser type, requested page, and date and time. A hosting provider may create and store these records.

Payment providers may collect payment information directly. Bozeman SEO does not need or intend to store full payment card numbers.

How we use information

We use personal information to:

• Respond to questions and prepare proposals.
• Provide, manage, and improve agreed SEO services.
• Communicate about projects, invoices, and support.
• Protect the website, clients, and our business from misuse.
• Keep business records and comply with legal obligations.

We use information only for a reasonable business purpose connected to these activities or with your direction.

Cookies and analytics

We use analytics tools to understand how visitors find and use this website. These tools may use cookies or similar technologies and may collect pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser information, referring pages, and time spent on the site.

We use this information to measure website traffic and improve the site and our services. Analytics providers may process this information for us. We do not use analytics information for targeted advertising. You can limit cookies through your browser settings. Where required by law, we will ask for your permission before using optional analytics cookies.

When information is shared

We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information for targeted advertising.

We may share information with:

• Service providers that support hosting, email, accounting, payments, file storage, project management, or professional services.
• Search, website, and analytics platforms when a client authorizes access for an engagement.
• Advisers, regulators, courts, or law enforcement when reasonably necessary to protect rights, comply with law, or respond to valid legal process.
• A successor in connection with a merger, sale, financing, or other transfer of the business, subject to appropriate confidentiality.

Retention

We keep personal information only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, including to provide services, maintain business and tax records, resolve disputes, and meet legal obligations.

Retention periods vary by record type and client agreement. When information is no longer needed, we may delete it, anonymize it, or securely archive it when the law permits.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the information we handle. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security.

Clients should grant only the access needed for an engagement and should revoke that access when it is no longer required.

Your choices and rights

You may ask to access, correct, or delete personal information that Bozeman SEO holds about you. You may also ask for a copy of your information or object to certain uses where applicable law provides that right.

We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. We may retain information when required by law or when a recognized exception applies. To make a request, email hello@bozemanseo.com.

This website and our services are intended for businesses and adults. They are not directed to children under thirteen, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under thirteen.
