Privacy Policy

Information you give us

We only receive information you choose to send us. The Website has two forms:

• Contact form: your first and last name, email address, your message, your phone number if you add one, and whether you agreed to receive text messages from us.
• Free guide form: your first and last name and your email address.

When you submit either form, the details are sent by email to the owner of Cents of Clarity. They are not kept in a database on the Website. Our email service passes that message to us, so it handles the details while delivering it. We use what you send only to reply to you, to send the guide you asked for, and to follow up about the reason you contacted us. If you agreed to text messages on the Contact form, we may text you at the phone number you gave. You can ask us to stop at any time.

Information collected automatically

We do not run analytics, advertising, or tracking tools on the Website. Like any website, the company that hosts it receives basic technical details when your browser loads a page, such as your internet address and browser type, so the pages can be delivered and kept secure. We do not use this to identify you.

The Contact and free guide forms use Cloudflare Turnstile, a security check that helps block spam and automated submissions. Cloudflare processes basic technical information from your browser for that check, as described in Cloudflare's Turnstile privacy addendum.

Cookies and local storage

The Website does not set cookies of its own, and we use no tracking cookies. On the Contact and free guide pages, the Cloudflare Turnstile security check may keep a small amount of data in your browser, only so the spam check can work. We do not use it to track you.

Fonts, images, and other content

All fonts, images, and downloadable files on the Website are served from the Website itself. Our pages do not load fonts or images from other companies. The only script we load from another company is the Cloudflare Turnstile security check, on the Contact and free guide pages.

Links to other sites

The Website links to other sites. Opening one takes you away from our Website, and the privacy practices of that site apply instead. These links are:

• Our online booking calendar, run by Google, where you choose an appointment time.
• Google Maps, for the location of our service area.
• Our Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn pages.
• The QuickBooks and Intuit certification pages, and other professional organizations we belong to.
• The websites of the local businesses listed on our Local page.
• Other websites mentioned in our articles and resources.

We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites, and we encourage you to read their privacy statements.

Sharing your information

We do not sell or rent your information. We do not share it for advertising. We share form details only with the email service that delivers your form messages to us, and where the law requires it.

Do Not Track

Some browsers can send a "Do Not Track" signal. Because the Website runs no analytics, advertising, or tracking tools, there is nothing for that signal to turn off, and the Website works the same whether or not your browser sends it. We also do not follow your activity across other websites.

Your access to and control over information

You can do the following at any time by contacting us at the email address or phone number below:

• See what information we have about you, if any.
• Correct any information we have about you.
• Ask us to delete any information we have about you.
• Stop future emails or text messages from us.
• Tell us any concern you have about how we use your information.

Security

We take precautions to protect your information. The Website uses an encrypted connection (look for "https" at the start of the address and a closed lock icon in your browser). Only people who need your information to respond to you can see it. No method of sending information over the internet is completely secure, so please do not send sensitive financial details, such as account numbers or passwords, through the forms. We will tell you how to share those safely.

Children's privacy

The Website is not intended for anyone under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will remove it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes are posted on this page, and the date at the top shows when it was last updated.
