Privacy Policy

Effective: June 1, 2026. Last updated: June 1, 2026.

1. Our Approach

Data Wise Consulting LLC ("Data Wise," "we," "us," or "our") designs this website to respect visitor privacy and provide clear choices. We do not use Google Analytics. We do not use Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Google Ads tracking, Microsoft or Bing Ads tracking, session replay, heatmaps, mouse or scroll recording, fingerprinting scripts, or cross-site behavioral advertising. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

2. Information We Collect

• Information you submit: name, work email, company, service interest, and any message content you send through our contact form.
• Limited server logs: standard request metadata (such as timestamp, requested URL, response status, and a coarse user-agent string) used only for security, abuse prevention, and operating the site. We do not use this data to build advertising profiles.
• Bot protection: when you submit the contact form, Cloudflare Turnstile performs a privacy-preserving challenge to confirm you are not a bot.

3. Why We Collect It

• To respond to your inquiry and operate this website.
• To secure the site against fraud, abuse, and attack.
• To comply with legal obligations.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

We use a small number of cookies and a single local-storage entry. None set advertising or cross-site identifiers.

• Strictly necessary (always on): bot-protection cookies set by Cloudflare Turnstile only on the contact page; a local-storage key named dwc-cookie-consent-v2 that records your privacy choices.
• Analytics: off by default. We do not currently load any analytics tool. We do not use Google Analytics.
• Marketing: off by default. We do not currently load any marketing or advertising tool.
• Personalization: off by default. We do not currently load any personalization tool.

See our Cookie Policy for the full inventory and our Privacy Audit Summary for the developer-level breakdown.

5. Third Parties

The only third party that receives data in normal operation is Cloudflare, which provides hosting, network security, and bot protection on the contact form. Cloudflare processes request data as our service provider under confidentiality obligations. We do not share your information with advertising networks, data brokers, or social platforms.

6. No Session Replay, Heatmaps, or Chat Widgets

This site does not use session replay, screen recording, heatmaps, mouse tracking, scroll tracking, or behavior recording tools. We do not operate a chat widget on this site. If we ever add one, it will be disabled by default, will load only after consent, and will mask user-entered content.

7. Forms

We do not track form typing, capture keystrokes, or monitor form abandonment. Form contents are not sent to any analytics, advertising, or behavioral tracking platform. Form submissions are transmitted only to our own backend for the purpose of responding to your inquiry.

8. Your Privacy Choices

You can change your consent at any time through the Privacy Choices link in the footer. You may opt out of analytics, marketing, and personalization categories. You may also request access, correction, deletion, portability, or restriction of your personal information, and may ask us to limit the use of any sensitive personal information. To exercise these rights, use our contact form. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law and may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

9. Global Privacy Control

We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where technically possible. When your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as an opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising and we disable marketing, personalization, and any future cross-site tracking categories for your session.

10. Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

We do not sell personal information and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. You can confirm or change this preference at any time through the Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link in the footer.

11. California Residents

California residents have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request deletion or correction, to limit the use of sensitive personal information, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. To exercise your rights, submit a request via our contact form.

12. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry, operate the site, and meet legal, accounting, or security requirements. Server logs are retained for a limited operational window and then discarded or aggregated.

13. Security

We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is fully secure, and we make no guarantees.

14. Children

The site is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have, contact us and we will delete it.

15. International Visitors

The site is operated from the United States. If you access it from elsewhere, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States.

16. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be noted in the banner where appropriate.
