Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information mattbrandenburg.com collects, why it is used and the choices available to website visitors.
Last updated: July 11, 2026
Overview
Matt Brandenburg Internet Marketing respects your privacy. This policy applies to information collected through mattbrandenburg.com, its contact and audit request form, the website conversation widget and related call or communication paths.
Information you provide
You may provide your name, work email, phone number, organization, website domain, area of interest and message. If you request a free website audit, the domain and email address are used to review publicly accessible website information and send the findings or follow-up questions.
Do not submit passwords, payment information, private customer records, health information or other sensitive data through the website form or conversation widget.
Information collected automatically
The site may collect technical and usage information such as the page visited, referring page, browser or device information, approximate region, campaign parameters and interactions with calls, forms, review-source links or the conversation widget. Analytics should not receive form names, email addresses, phone numbers, domains or message text.
Local SEO Market Planner
Answers entered in the Local SEO Market Planner remain in the current browser page. The planner does not submit those answers to the website, place them in analytics or save them in browser storage. Printing and CSV export are created locally on the device. Planner usage events may record only the step number or export format, not the entered answers.
How information is used
- Respond to questions and service requests.
- Prepare a requested review of publicly accessible website information.
- Operate, secure and improve the website and communication systems.
- Measure marketing performance with non-sensitive event data.
- Meet legal, security and recordkeeping obligations.
Service providers
Information may be processed by providers that support website hosting, form delivery, email, customer relationship management, analytics, call handling, the conversation widget and security. Providers should receive only the information needed for their role and remain subject to their own privacy and security terms.
Google services and connected data
The website uses Google Tag Manager and may use Google Analytics. If a separate tool asks you to connect a Google account, the authorization screen and product-specific notice should explain the requested access. Google user data is used only for the feature you authorize and is handled in accordance with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including applicable Limited Use requirements.
Cookies and similar technologies
Analytics, security and embedded communication tools may use cookies or similar browser storage. Browser settings can limit cookies, although parts of the site may function differently.
Retention and security
Information is retained only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, business records, security and legal obligations. Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used, but no internet transmission or storage system can be represented as risk free.
Your choices
You may request access, correction or deletion of personal information, subject to applicable law and legitimate recordkeeping needs. You may also ask not to receive further marketing communication.
External links
The site links to third-party services, including Google Maps and official reference sources. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
Children's privacy
The website is intended for business and professional audiences and is not directed to children.
Policy changes
This policy may be updated when the website, service providers or legal requirements change. The current version and update date will appear on this page.
