Privacy Policy
Effective Date: May 23, 2026.
We engineer local market dominance with precision data. That requires collecting specific information from you. We wrote this policy in plain English. You will not find dense legal jargon here. You will find the exact details of what we track, why we track it, and how we protect your information.
Running a successful local SEO campaign requires absolute transparency. We apply that same standard to your privacy. You trust us with your business details. We take that responsibility seriously.
Information You Provide Directly
You want higher map pack rankings. You fill out our contact form. You hand over specific details so we can evaluate your current local search visibility. We collect your name, email address, and phone number. We also ask for your website URL and your exact Google Business Profile link.
We need this information to analyze your current proximity signals and review velocity. We cannot audit your local presence without knowing exactly who you are and where you operate.
We do not collect sensitive personal data. We do not ask for your social security number, personal banking details, or home address unless your home is your registered business location. We only collect the data necessary to evaluate your local map visibility.
Automated Tracking and Cookies
We run a data-driven operation. We track how visitors interact with localmapvisibilityboost.com. This removes the noise. It gives us the signal. We use Google Analytics 4 and Google Search Console to monitor our site performance.
These platforms drop cookies on your browser. These cookies track your IP address, browser type, device type, and the specific pages you read. We look at bounce rates, time on page, and navigation paths.
We use this data to improve our content quality.
If you read our guide on NAP consistency and leave after ten seconds, we know the page failed. We rewrite it. We use your anonymous browsing data to illuminate our blind spots and achieve higher resolution in our technical writing. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. It will not break the site. You will still be able to read our guides and request audits.
How We Apply Your Information
We do not hoard data. We put it to work. We use your email address to send the local SEO audits you requested. We analyze your GBP link to check your Q&A section, evaluate your review response rates, and audit your category optimization. We reply to your direct questions with specific, actionable advice.
We also run a private email list. We send out tactical teardowns of local search algorithm updates and citation building strategies. If you opt into this list, we use your email to deliver these insights.
You control your inbox.
You can opt out of that newsletter with one click. Every email has an unsubscribe link at the bottom. We process unsubscribe requests immediately.
Third-Party Services and Data Sharing
We do not sell your data. We never have. We never will. We share your data only with the specific infrastructure tools that keep our agency running.
We use Google Workspace for secure email hosting. We use Mailchimp for newsletter distribution. We use industry tools like Ahrefs, Whitespark, and BrightLocal to run your actual visibility audits. When we run a citation audit, we input your business name, address, and phone number into these third-party systems.
These providers have their own strict privacy policies. They act as data processors. They cannot legally use your data for their own marketing purposes. They simply provide the software we need to execute our local SEO strategies.
Data Retention Timelines
We keep your information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which we collected it. If you become an active client, we retain your data for the duration of our contract plus three years for tax and legal compliance.
If you request a free GBP audit and decide not to hire us, we delete your contact profile after twelve months.
Stale data is a liability.
We clear out our inactive contact records annually. We do not keep your email address on file indefinitely just to inflate our database numbers.
How We Protect Your Information
We take security seriously. We enforce strict access controls across our entire operation. Our website uses standard SSL encryption. All data transfers between your browser and our server happen over secure connections.
We protect our internal agency accounts with mandatory two-factor authentication. Only active team members can access client data. We use enterprise-grade password managers. We do not share login credentials via unencrypted channels.
No system is completely impenetrable. If a data breach occurs, we will notify you via email within 72 hours of discovery. We will tell you exactly what data was exposed, how the breach happened, and the specific steps we are taking to fix the vulnerability.
Your Control Over Your Data
You own your data. You dictate how we handle it. Under current privacy regulations, you hold specific rights regarding your personal information.
- Right to Access: You can request a full copy of the data we hold on you.
- Right to Rectification: You can demand we correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Right to Erasure: You can request total deletion of your profile from our systems.
- Right to Restrict Processing: You can ask us to pause processing your data under certain conditions.
Send an email to our privacy team to exercise any of these rights. We process these requests within 14 business days. No friction. No pushback. We simply execute your request and confirm when it is complete.
External Links
Our guides link to external resources. We link to Google Business Profile documentation, local SEO tool providers, and industry case studies. We do not control these external websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Read their privacy policies before submitting any personal data to them.
Policy Updates
The local SEO landscape shifts constantly. Privacy regulations change. We update this policy to reflect operational reality. When we make material changes to how we handle your data, we will post the updated policy on this page. We will update the effective date at the top of the document. Check back occasionally to stay informed about how we protect your information.
