This Privacy Policy explains how [BUSINESS LEGAL NAME] (“Inkr Agency,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you visit [https://inkragency.com] (the “Site”) or otherwise interact with our services.

We have written this notice in plain language. If anything is unclear, please contact us using the details at the end.

1. Who This Policy Applies To

This policy applies to visitors to our Site and people who contact us, request a quote, or use our services. Under Rhode Island law, an individual residing in Rhode Island who is acting in a personal or household context is referred to as a “customer.” Where this policy describes your rights, those rights are provided to Rhode Island customers and, where applicable, to residents of other states with similar laws.

This policy does not apply to information collected in an employment or commercial (business-to-business) context, or to third-party websites we link to but do not control.

If we ever need to process sensitive data, we will obtain your consent first. Please do not submit sensitive information through our forms unless we specifically request it.

6. Children’s Privacy

Our Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected such information without verifiable parental consent as required by the federal Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), we will delete it. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, please contact us.

7. How We Share Personal Data, and Third Parties

We share personal data only as described below. We share it with:

  • Service providers (processors) who perform functions on our behalf such as website hosting, analytics, email delivery, payment processing, and customer communication. These providers are bound by contracts that require them to protect your data and use it only to provide services to us.
  • Legal and safety recipients, when required by law, legal process, or to protect our rights, users, or the public.
  • Business transfers, in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, in which case we will require the recipient to honor this policy.

Third parties to whom we have sold or may sell personally identifiable information: NONE. We do not sell personal data.

A current, representative list of the third-party services we use includes: Hostinger (hosting), Visitor Tracking (analytics), your email provider, your payment processor.

8. Sale of Personal Data and Targeted Advertising

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use it for targeted advertising or for profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects. If this ever changes, we will update this policy and provide you the ability to opt out before doing so.

9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies to operate properly, remember your preferences, and understand how the Site is used.

14. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
