Privacy, data deletion, and terms

Privacy policy

Bright Rivr is a web and marketing studio in Bozeman, Montana. We only ask for the information we need to answer you, do good work, and keep our website running well. We don’t sell your personal information.

What we collect

• Get Started form. Your name, email, phone number, business name, website, the kind of project you have in mind, any details or files you choose to upload, the consultation time you pick, and your time zone so we can show times in your local time.
• Newsletter signup. Your email address and the date you signed up.
• Phone calls and messages. Whatever you choose to tell us when you call or write to us.
• Website usage. Basic technical information your browser sends, such as pages visited, referring site, device and browser type, approximate location based on IP address, and the date and time of your visit.

How we use it

• To reply to you, schedule and run your consultation, and prepare proposals and estimates.
• To deliver and support the work you hire us for.
• To send the newsletter you signed up for. Every issue includes an unsubscribe link.
• To understand how people use our site so we can make it clearer and faster.
• To keep our site secure and to meet legal, tax, and accounting requirements.

Sharing

We don’t sell or rent your personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us run the business, such as website hosting, email and newsletter delivery, scheduling, file storage, and analytics. They may use it only to provide their services to us. We may also share information when the law requires it, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or as part of a business transfer such as a merger, in which case this policy would still apply to your information.

Analytics & cookies

Our site stores a small preference in your browser to remember whether you chose light or dark mode. We may also use a web analytics service that sets cookies or similar technologies to count visits and see which pages are useful. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and the site will still work.

How long we keep it

We keep inquiry and consultation details for up to two years after our last contact, unless you become a client. Client records are kept for as long as we work together and then as long as needed for legal, tax, and accounting purposes. Newsletter addresses are kept until you unsubscribe. Analytics data is kept in summary form for up to 26 months.

Your choices & rights

You can ask us to show you the personal information we hold about you, correct it, or delete it. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in any email. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state or national privacy laws, and we’ll honor them. To make a request, write to us at the address in the Data deletion policy. We won’t treat you differently for using these rights.

Our site isn’t meant for children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect their information. We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll change the effective date above.

Data deletion policy

You can ask us to delete the personal information we hold about you at any time. Here’s how it works and what to expect.

How to request deletion

In your letter, include your name and the phone number or email address you used with us, so we can find your records. To protect your privacy, we may ask a few questions to confirm it’s really you before we delete anything.

What we delete

• Get Started form submissions, including any files you uploaded.
• Your newsletter subscription and email address.
• Contact details and notes in our inquiry and project management tools.
• Any analytics data we can reasonably connect to you.

We’ll also ask the service providers who store that information for us to delete it.

Timeline

We’ll confirm we received your request within 10 business days and finish deleting your information within 30 days after we’ve verified it’s you. If we need more time, we’ll tell you why. Copies in routine backups are overwritten on their normal schedule, usually within 90 days.

Exceptions

We may keep some information when we have to, such as:

• Invoices, contracts, and payment records we must keep for tax and accounting purposes.
• Information needed to finish work you’ve hired us for, or to resolve a dispute or enforce an agreement.
• Information we’re required to keep by law or to protect against fraud or security issues.
• A note that you asked to be deleted or unsubscribed, so we don’t contact you again.

If we keep anything, we’ll tell you what and why, keep it only as long as needed, and use it for nothing else.
