Our website is an informational resource for landscaping and lawn care business owners interested in operational efficiency training. We do not sell products, process financial transactions, or operate subscription services through this website.

2. Information We Collect

2a. Information You Provide Directly

When you use the contact form on this website, you provide your name, email address, and a message. This information is transmitted via your email client to our address at [email protected]. We do not use a server-side form processor and do not store form submissions in a database.

2b. Information Collected Automatically

When you visit our website, certain technical information may be collected automatically by your browser or our web infrastructure. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, the page you visited before arriving at our site, the pages you view on our site, and the time and date of your visit. This data is collected through standard server log mechanisms and, where applicable, through cookies as described in our Cookie Policy.

2c. Cookie Data

We use cookies on this website. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website. We use functional cookies to remember your cookie consent preferences. We may also use analytical cookies if you consent to them. Full details are in our Cookie Policy.

We use the information we collect for the following purposes only:

  • To respond to inquiries submitted through the contact form
  • To understand how visitors navigate and use our website so we can improve the content and structure
  • To remember your cookie preferences so we do not ask you repeatedly
  • To comply with applicable legal obligations

We do not use your personal data for automated decision-making, profiling, or marketing communications. We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not use your contact information to send unsolicited emails.

4. Legal Bases for Processing

We process your personal data on the following legal bases, consistent with applicable US privacy law including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and relevant federal frameworks:

  • Consent - for analytical cookies, where you have actively agreed via our cookie consent tool
  • Legitimate Interests - for server log data and usage analytics that help us maintain and improve the website
  • Legal Obligation - where processing is necessary to comply with applicable law

5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

  • Service Providers - We may use third-party services for website hosting, analytics, or email delivery. These providers act as data processors under our instruction and are contractually prohibited from using your data for their own purposes.
  • Legal Requirements - We may disclose information if required to do so by law, regulation, or valid legal process such as a court order or government request.
  • Business Transfer - In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change.

We do not share, sell, rent, or trade your personal data with third parties for their marketing purposes.

Contact form emails are retained in our email system for as long as necessary to respond to the inquiry and for a reasonable period thereafter for record-keeping. Server log data is typically retained for 90 days. Cookie preference data is stored in your browser and expires according to the timeframe described in the Cookie Policy. We do not retain personal data longer than is necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

9. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the personal data we hold. These include standard web security practices at the hosting level. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Contact form submissions travel through your email client, which means they are subject to your email provider's security standards.
