Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2025

This Privacy Policy explains what information Adam Young Marketing (adamyoungmarketing.com) collects, why it's collected, and how it's handled. I've tried to write this in plain language rather than dense legal jargon, because you deserve to actually understand it.

What Information Is Collected

When you submit a form on this site, whether it's a newsletter signup or a contact inquiry, the site collects:

• Your email address
• Your full name
• Any additional details you choose to include in a message

That's it. There are no hidden data grabs happening behind the scenes on the forms themselves.

How This Information Is Used

The information submitted through forms is used to:

• Send you email updates, newsletters, and marketing content related to Adam Young Marketing
• Respond to questions, comments, or inquiries you've submitted
• Keep a record of communications so I can follow up appropriately

Your information is not used for anything beyond what's described here. It isn't repurposed for unrelated projects or shared with unrelated third parties.

Cookies and Analytics

This site uses Google Analytics (GA4) to understand traffic patterns, such as how many people visit, which pages they view, and roughly where visitors are coming from. Google Analytics uses cookies, which are small files stored on your device, to collect this information.

This data is aggregated and anonymized in the reports I see. I don't use it to identify individual visitors. You can control or block cookies through your browser settings at any time, and doing so won't prevent you from using the site.

No Selling of Personal Data

Personal data submitted to this site is never sold, rented, or traded to third parties. Period. Any tools used to operate this site (like email delivery services or analytics providers) process data solely to help run the site and communications, not to build profiles for resale.

How to Unsubscribe

Every marketing or newsletter email sent from this site includes an unsubscribe link at the bottom. Clicking it will remove you from future email sends. If for any reason that link doesn't work as expected, you can reach out through the contact form on the site and request removal manually.

Data Retention

Information submitted through forms is retained for as long as it's reasonably useful, generally for the duration of an active email subscription or until a request for deletion is made. Inactive or unsubscribed contacts may be periodically cleaned from mailing lists.

Your Privacy Rights

If you're a California resident, you have rights under the CCPA and CPRA, including the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to request deletion of your personal information, and the right to opt out of any sale of personal information (which, again, doesn't happen here).

Regardless of where you live, if you'd like to know what information is associated with you, request a correction, or ask for deletion, you're welcome to reach out. These requests are honored to the extent reasonably possible.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated occasionally to reflect changes in tools, practices, or legal requirements. The "last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent revision.

Contact

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or want to exercise any privacy rights described above, please reach out through the contact form on this site. I read these submissions personally and will do my best to respond promptly.
