Privacy Policy
1. Introduction and Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how JdotConsulting ("JdotConsulting," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects personal information. It applies to our website at https://jdotconsulting.net (the "Site").
JdotConsulting is a consulting business located in Winter Springs, Florida, United States. This policy covers personal information of website visitors and of individuals who contact us by email through the Site.
Our website is designed, built, and operated for us by AiUpLyft, an AI-services provider, who acts as our service provider in operating the Site on our behalf.
2. Who We Are and How to Contact Us
JdotConsulting is the entity responsible for the personal information described in this policy.
- Business: JdotConsulting
- Privacy and general contact: jayfreeman@jdotconsulting.net
If you have a question, a request about your personal information, or a privacy concern, email us at jayfreeman@jdotconsulting.net and we will respond as described in Section 7 (Your Privacy Rights).
3. The Personal Information We Collect
We collect only what we need to operate our Site, respond when you contact us, and maintain accurate records.
3.1 Information you provide when you contact us
The Site does not have a contact form or a chat feature. If you choose to email us using the address shown on the Site, we receive the content of your email, including your name, email address, and any other details you include. We use this information only to answer your questions, provide information about our services, and respond to your request.
We do not collect phone numbers through the Site, and we do not place calls or send text messages to you through the Site.
3.2 Information collected automatically
When you visit the Site, limited technical information may be handled by our hosting and network-security provider to deliver and protect the website, such as IP address and basic request information used to serve pages and guard against abuse. See Section 6 (Cookies and Analytics) for how aggregate measurement works on the Site.
4. Why We Collect Personal Information (Purposes)
We use the personal information described above for the following purposes:
- To respond to you — to answer questions you send us by email, provide information about our services, and follow up on your requests.
- To operate and secure the Site — to host, maintain, monitor, and protect the website, and to prevent abuse.
- To understand and improve the Site — to measure aggregate website traffic and performance using privacy-friendly analytics, as described in Section 6.
- To keep ordinary business records — to maintain reasonable records of inquiries and to comply with applicable law.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use the content of your emails for advertising profiling.
5. How We Share Personal Information
We do not sell personal information, and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined under applicable privacy laws. We share personal information only:
- With our service provider — with AiUpLyft, which designs and operates the website on our behalf, and with the hosting, network-security, and analytics provider that delivers and measures the Site. These providers may process the information only to perform services for us.
- For legal and protection purposes — when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law or legal process, to enforce our terms, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of JdotConsulting or others.
- In a business transfer — in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of all or part of our business, subject to this policy or a successor policy.
6. Cookies and Analytics
We aim to keep the Site privacy-friendly.
- Cookieless analytics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-focused web-analytics tool that measures aggregate website traffic and performance without using tracking cookies and without collecting personal information for that purpose. It does not fingerprint you, does not build an advertising profile, and does not track you across other websites.
- Strictly necessary cookies. Our hosting and network-security provider may set a small number of strictly necessary cookies used only to operate and secure the Site — for example, to distinguish automated traffic from human visitors. These cookies are not used for advertising.
- No advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. We do not use the Site to serve targeted advertising or to track you across other websites.
Most browsers let you control or block cookies through their settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how parts of the Site function.
7. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live and the law that applies to you, you may have rights regarding your personal information. We extend the core of these rights — access, deletion, and correction — to all individuals as a baseline.
- Right to know / access — to request the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you.
- Right to delete — to request that we delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to legal exceptions.
- Right to correct — to request that we correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.
- Right to opt out of sale or sharing — we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, so there is nothing to opt out of; if this ever changes, we will update this policy and provide an opt-out mechanism.
- Right to non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.
How to exercise your rights. Email us at jayfreeman@jdotconsulting.net with enough detail for us to understand and respond to your request. For your protection, we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before fulfilling a request. There is no charge to make a request, although we may decline or charge a reasonable fee for requests that are excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded, as permitted by law. If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, may provide the rights described above; we do not sell or share California residents' personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
8. How Long We Keep Information
We keep personal information only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this policy, or for as long as required or permitted by law, and then delete or anonymize it. You may request deletion of the personal information we hold about you at any time by contacting us, subject to legal exceptions.
9. Data Security
We and our service providers use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Children's Privacy
Our Site is intended for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Site. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us at jayfreeman@jdotconsulting.net and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
11. Third-Party Links
The Site may contain links to third-party websites or services that we do not operate or control. This policy does not apply to those third parties, and we are not responsible for their privacy practices.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Site after an update means you acknowledge the updated policy.
