The short version: We only collect what we need, we never sell your data, and you can ask us to delete it at any time. Questions? Email us at hello@valdris.com.
1. Who We Are
Valdris Consulting (“Valdris,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a business consulting service that helps small business owners save time, win more customers, and improve their bottom line. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information when you visit valdris.com or use our services.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information in two ways: information you provide directly, and information collected automatically when you use our site.
Information you provide:
- Contact & booking forms — When you book a free consultation or send us a message, we collect your name, email address, and any details you include in your message.
- Business diagnostic — When you complete our free diagnostic quiz, we collect your responses and, if you opt in, your email address to send you the results.
- Email correspondence — If you email us directly, we retain that correspondence.
Information collected automatically:
- Usage data — Standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited, referring URL, timestamps). This data is used only for security and to understand how the site is being used.
- Cookies — We use only essential cookies required for the site to function. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your inquiries and schedule consultations
- Deliver your diagnostic results and any follow-up recommendations
- Send relevant business insights or updates, if you have opted in
- Improve the content and functionality of our website
- Comply with legal obligations
We will never use your information to send unsolicited marketing from third parties. If you opt in to receive updates from us, you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send.
4. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties.
We may share your information with a small number of trusted service providers who help us operate the site (for example, our scheduling tool, email platform, or hosting provider). These providers are contractually required to use your data only to perform services on our behalf and may not use it for any other purpose.
We may also disclose information when required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of Valdris Consulting or others.
5. Data Retention
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. Consultation and diagnostic data is typically retained for up to 3 years to allow us to serve returning clients effectively. You may request deletion of your data at any time (see Section 7).
6. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our site is served over HTTPS, and we limit access to personal data to only those who need it to perform their role.
No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Your Rights & Choices
You have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
- Request deletion of your personal data
- Opt out of marketing emails at any time
- Object to processing of your personal data in certain circumstances
To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@valdris.com. We will respond within 30 days.
8. Third-Party Links
Our website may contain links to third-party websites (for example, scheduling tools or external resources). These sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit.
9. Children’s Privacy
Our services are intended for business owners and are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of the site following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
