6. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device when you visit a website.

6.1 Types of Cookies We Use

• Strictly necessary cookies — Required for the website to function. These cannot be disabled. They do not track you for marketing purposes.
• Analytics cookies — Used to understand how visitors interact with our website in aggregate. If we use analytics tools such as Google Analytics, this data is pseudonymized and does not identify you personally.
• Third-party cookies — Third-party tools embedded in our website (such as Calendly) may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies, and they are subject to the third party's privacy policy.

6.2 Your Cookie Choices

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or set preferences for specific websites. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website.

For information on managing cookies in your browser, visit your browser's help documentation or allaboutcookies.org.

We do not respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals at this time, as there is no uniform standard for how such signals should be interpreted.

7. Third-Party Services & Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites and may embed third-party tools. These third parties have their own privacy policies, which we do not control. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services.

Third-party services that may be present on our website include:

• Calendly (scheduling) — calendly.com/privacy
• Formspree (form processing) — formspree.io/legal/privacy-policy
• Google Fonts (typography) — Your browser may make requests to Google's servers to load fonts. See Google's privacy policy for details.
• LinkedIn — If you visit our LinkedIn profile through a link on our site, LinkedIn's privacy policy applies.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you access through our website.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, as required by law, or as needed for legitimate business purposes.

Specifically:

• Contact form submissions and inquiry records — Retained for up to 3 years from the date of last contact, unless an ongoing business relationship requires longer retention.
• Consulting engagement records — Retained for the duration of the engagement plus 7 years, consistent with standard business record-keeping practices.
• Email correspondence — Retained in accordance with our standard email retention practices, typically 3–7 years depending on the nature of the correspondence.
• Web server logs — Typically retained for 90 days by our hosting provider in the ordinary course of operations.

When personal information is no longer needed, we delete it or anonymize it in a manner that makes re-identification reasonably infeasible.

9. Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:

• HTTPS encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and our website
• Access controls limiting who within our organization can access personal data
• Use of reputable third-party service providers with their own security programs

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security. If you have reason to believe that your information held by us has been compromised, please contact us immediately at info@teneightone.com.

In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in harm to affected individuals, we will notify affected individuals as required by applicable law, including any applicable state breach notification laws.

10. Children's Privacy

Our website and services are directed exclusively to adults and business professionals. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 18.

In compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), 15 U.S.C. § 6501 et seq., we do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under 13.

If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a person under 18, we will promptly delete that information. If you believe we have collected information from a minor, please contact us at info@teneightone.com.

To protect your privacy and security, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request. We will verify requests through information you have previously provided to us.

11.7 Authorized Agent

You may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf. We may require the authorized agent to provide proof of authorization and may require you to verify your identity directly with us.
