Cookies & Tracking Technologies

This website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to improve your browsing experience and help us understand how visitors use our site.

Types of cookies we use:

• Essential cookies — Required for basic website functionality. These cannot be disabled without affecting how the site works.
• Analytics cookies — Used by Google Analytics to collect anonymized data about how visitors use the site (pages visited, time on site, traffic source). This data is aggregated and does not personally identify you.
• Preference cookies — Remember your settings and preferences to improve your experience on return visits.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse new cookies, disable existing cookies, or receive a notification when a new cookie is set. Note that disabling cookies may affect some website functionality.

We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels for ad retargeting on this website.

Third-Party Services

We use a limited number of trusted third-party services that may process your data as part of their normal operation. These include:

• Google Analytics — Collects anonymized website usage data to help us understand traffic patterns and improve our content. Data is processed by Google under their Privacy Policy. We have IP anonymization enabled. (Google Privacy Policy)
• Google Search Console — Provides data about search performance and indexing. Does not collect visitor personal information.
• Web hosting provider — Our hosting provider may store server logs that include IP addresses and access times for security and performance purposes. These logs are not used for marketing and are retained for a limited period.

We do not integrate Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, or other advertising platform tracking on this website at this time. If this changes, this policy will be updated accordingly.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the personal information you share with us. These measures include:

• SSL/TLS encryption on all pages of this website (HTTPS)

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information using commercially acceptable means, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain your contact information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose it was collected for (responding to your inquiry, maintaining client records) or as required by law. You may request deletion of your data at any time.
