Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2025
1. Introduction
Welcome to Hashwhales.com, an IT support, cybersecurity, and web development provider based in the United States. We value your privacy and are committed to protecting any personal information you share with us.
Our website (https://hashwhales.com) is designed for showcasing our projects and services and publishing our blog and news content. We do not require visitor accounts or process online payments through this site.
2. Information We Collect
Hashwhales.com itself does not automatically collect or store personal data. However, we may receive limited information that you voluntarily provide through our Contact, Free Audit, or Website Grader forms.
- Name and email address (if you contact us)
- Message content you send via the contact form or direct email
- Basic technical logs automatically recorded by our hosting provider (such as IP address, browser type, and time of visit)
3. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to respond to your inquiries and to maintain professional communication. We do not sell or rent your personal information. When you submit our Contact, Free Audit, or Website Grader forms, that information may also be entered into our customer relationship management (CRM) system, HubSpot, solely so we can track and follow up on your request. We do not disclose your personal information to any other third party.
We may review anonymized website analytics to improve our site’s performance and design.
4. Cookies and Analytics
Our website may use minimal cookies or third-party analytics tools (e.g., Vercel Analytics, Google Analytics) to understand traffic and performance. These tools collect anonymous usage data only and do not identify individual users. You may disable cookies in your browser settings at any time.
5. Data Security
We use trusted hosting and infrastructure providers (such as Vercel and Supabase) that employ industry-standard encryption, HTTPS, and network protections. Messages submitted through our Contact, Free Audit, or Website Grader forms are delivered by email and, where applicable, logged in our CRM (HubSpot) as described above — we do not store form submissions in a public-facing database. Any emails you send to us are securely stored in our business email system and accessed only by authorized team members.
6. Legal Compliance
Although our website operates as a simple portfolio site, we adhere to key principles from major data protection laws, including:
- CCPA / CPRA (California Consumer Privacy Act / Rights Act)
- GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
- COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act)
We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 13 years old. California residents may contact us to request information about data usage or deletion.
7. International Access
Our website is hosted in the United States. If you access the site from outside the U.S., your connection data may be transferred and processed in the United States. By using our website, you consent to such transfers.
8. Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in law or services. Any updates will be posted on this page with a new “Last Updated” date.
