Privacy Policy

Information collected

Strategically Engaged collects only the information a visitor chooses to provide. That includes the details submitted through the Start a Conversation form, the speaking inquiry form, and The Engagement Brief signup form — typically name, organization, email address, an optional phone number, and the context of the request.

Basic technical information, such as pages visited and general device or browser type, may be collected automatically to understand how the site is used.

How information is used

Inquiry information is used solely to respond to the inquiry, evaluate fit, and communicate about a potential or active engagement.

Email addresses submitted to The Engagement Brief are used only to send that publication. Newsletter subscriptions use a confirmed double opt-in, and every issue includes an unsubscribe link.

Information sharing

Information is never sold, rented, or traded. It is shared only with service providers used to operate this website, deliver email, and, with your permission, measure website performance. These include hosting, database, email delivery services, and Google Analytics, only to the extent needed to perform those functions.

Information may be disclosed if required by law or to protect legal rights.

Data retention and security

Inquiry records are retained for as long as needed to respond and maintain a record of business communications, and are stored in access-controlled systems that are not readable by site visitors or public browser code.

No method of transmission or storage is entirely secure, but reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect the information provided.

Cookies and analytics

This site retains Lovable's privacy-conscious aggregate analytics. Separately, with your permission, Google Analytics 4 uses first-party analytics cookies to measure public page visits, referral channels, campaigns, and inquiry activity. Google Analytics is not loaded until you accept optional analytics. It is not equivalent to cookie-free aggregate analytics.

Names, email addresses, telephone numbers, and message contents submitted through forms are not sent to Google Analytics. Page addresses are stripped of query strings and fragments, and campaign values are limited to non-sensitive marketing labels. Google may process technical connection information to provide the service; GA4 does not log or store individual IP addresses.

Google advertising features, Google Signals, and advertising personalization are not enabled by this website's tracking code. Analytics cookies are configured to expire after 60 days without extending their expiry on later visits. Google account-level retention settings are managed separately.

Your choices

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the information you submitted at any time. You may unsubscribe from The Engagement Brief at any time using the link in any issue.

Google Analytics is on by default. You can turn it off at any time using Analytics preferences in the footer. Declining does not prevent you from using the site or submitting an inquiry. Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track browser preferences keep optional Google Analytics off. Withdrawing consent stops further collection and removes accessible Google Analytics cookies; it does not erase data previously collected by Google.

To make a request, email gina@strategically-engaged.com. Tiny but mighty: remember the hyphen between strategically and engaged.
