Privacy Policy.

Overview

We use information provided through our Website to respond to inquiries, communicate about our services, maintain our Website, and protect its integrity. We aim to collect only information reasonably relevant to those purposes.

If we establish a client, partnership, or consulting relationship, additional privacy, confidentiality, or contractual provisions may apply.

Information We Collect

Information you provide

When you use our contact form, we may collect:

• First and last name;
• Email address;
• Organization name, if provided;
• Inquiry category, such as partnerships, government relations, education strategy, media, or careers; and
• Information included in your message and subsequent correspondence.

Technical information

When you visit the Website, our hosting and security systems may process technical data such as IP address, device or browser type, referring page, access timestamps, and diagnostic or security logs. Some data may be generated automatically by WordPress, its plugins, or our hosting environment.

We do not ask visitors to submit sensitive personal information through our general contact form. Please avoid including Social Security numbers, financial account credentials, health records, or other confidential materials in an initial website inquiry.

How We Use Information

We may use information collected through the Website to:

• Review and respond to submitted questions, proposals, and requests;
• Communicate regarding potential projects, services, and business relationships;
• Route inquiries to an appropriate team member;
• Maintain Website functionality, diagnose issues, and prevent spam or abuse;
• Maintain records of legitimate business correspondence; and
• Comply with applicable legal obligations and protect our rights.

Submitting an inquiry does not automatically subscribe you to a marketing email list. If we introduce optional newsletters or promotional communications, we will provide an appropriate notice and choice at the point of collection.

Sharing & Service Providers

We may make Website information available to personnel who need it to respond to inquiries, and to service providers that support Website hosting, form submissions, email delivery, security, and maintenance.

For example, our Website currently uses WordPress and Forminator to process contact form submissions, and GoDaddy services for website hosting and business email. The details of these providers' processing are governed by their services and applicable terms.

We may also disclose information where required by law, to respond to lawful requests, or where reasonably necessary to protect the safety, rights, or security of our Website and its users.

We do not intend to sell contact-form submissions. If our data practices change materially, this policy will be updated.

Cookies & Similar Technologies

WordPress, hosting services, and security tools may use cookies or similar technologies to support essential site operations, preferences, traffic management, and security. Some embedded third-party features, if present, may set their own cookies.

You can generally manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect Website functionality.

Data Retention & Security

Website inquiries may be stored in the site's Forminator submission records and delivered by email to authorized recipients. We retain information for as long as reasonably needed to manage inquiries, business records, security, and applicable legal obligations, and delete or anonymize information when it is no longer required, subject to lawful exceptions.

We use administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to reduce unauthorized access or misuse. No website, network, or email system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Your Choices & Privacy Rights

You may contact us to ask what personal information you have provided, request a correction, or request deletion of information associated with a Website inquiry. We will review requests in accordance with applicable law and any legitimate need to retain records.

Depending on your place of residence, additional privacy rights may apply, including rights concerning access, correction, deletion, or certain processing activities. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.

You can also decline to submit the contact form and may control certain cookies through your browser.

Third-Party Websites & Links

Our Website may link to external websites, articles, social media services, or resources not operated by Septet Strategies. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to review the policies of those websites before submitting personal information.

Children's Privacy

Our Website is intended for general business and professional audiences and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly seek personal information from children under 13 through our contact form. If you believe a child has provided such information, please contact us so we can review the matter.

Changes to This Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our Website, our practices, or applicable requirements. When we update it, we will revise the effective date shown above. Material changes may be communicated through an additional notice where appropriate.
