Privacy Policy

Overview

Arlyn Planning and Design Inc. ("Arlyn Planning & Design," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website at arlynplanningdesign.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit the site, how we use it, and your choices regarding that information.

Information We Collect

Contact form submissions

When you submit our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use this information solely to respond to your inquiry. Form submissions are processed and stored by Netlify.

Usage data

We use Google Analytics (via Google Tag Manager) to collect anonymized data about how visitors use this site — including pages visited, time on page, referral source, and approximate geographic location. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally. Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser to track sessions. You can opt out at any time using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on or by adjusting your browser's cookie settings.

Third-Party Google Services

This site uses the following Google services, each governed by Google's Privacy Policy:

Google Fonts

We load fonts directly from Google's servers (fonts.googleapis.com). When your browser requests a font, Google receives your IP address and the font request. We do not control or have access to that data. See Google Fonts privacy FAQ for details.

Google Maps

We may embed Google Maps on this site. When you interact with an embedded map, Google may collect your IP address and usage data. We do not receive or store this data ourselves.

Google Analytics & Tag Manager

As described under Usage Data above, we use Google Analytics (loaded via Google Tag Manager) to understand site traffic. Data is processed by Google in accordance with their privacy policy. We have enabled IP anonymization and do not use this data for advertising purposes.

Gmail and Google Workspace APIs

We may use Gmail or Google Workspace APIs for internal business communications, including sending or receiving email related to contact form submissions. Our use of information received from Google APIs complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We do not use data obtained through Google APIs to serve advertising, and we do not share or sell this data to third parties.

Cookies

This site uses cookies placed by Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager. These cookies help us understand aggregate usage patterns. We do not use cookies to track individuals across sites or for advertising. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies; see your browser's help documentation for instructions.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share data only with the service providers listed above (Netlify, Google) to the extent necessary to operate this website. We may disclose information if required by law or to protect our legal rights.

Data Retention

Contact form submissions are retained only as long as needed to respond to your inquiry. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics default retention settings (up to 26 months). You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the address below.

Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
