Privacy Policy

This policy applies to information collected through the Site. It does not apply to information collected offline, through third-party websites we do not control, or through separate contractual engagements that may be governed by their own terms.

By using the Site or contacting us, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or contact us with personal information.

Information you provide. When you email us or schedule a conversation through the Site, we collect the information you choose to share, which may include:

• Name
• Email address
• Phone number (if you provide one)
• Message content and any other details you include in your inquiry

Automatically collected information. When you visit the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect limited technical and usage information, such as:

• Pages viewed and general navigation activity on the Site
• Device type, browser type, and approximate location derived from IP address
• Referring URL and timestamps associated with your visit
• Custom analytics events related to Site usage (for example, CTA clicks), which may include non-identifying attributes such as the page or link selected

Anti-abuse and security data. To protect the Site from spam and misuse, we and our service providers may process limited technical metadata associated with your visit.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information through the Site, and we ask that you do not submit government ID numbers, financial account details, or other highly sensitive data through email or scheduling requests.

We use personal information for legitimate business purposes, including to:

• Respond to your inquiries and evaluate potential engagements
• Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site
• Monitor Site performance, diagnose technical issues, and understand visitor usage
• Detect, prevent, and address fraud, spam, abuse, and security incidents
• Comply with applicable law and enforce our legal rights

We do not use inquiry communications to send unrelated marketing communications unless you separately opt in or we have another lawful basis to do so.

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we process personal information on the following bases:

• Contract or pre-contractual steps: to respond to your inquiry and discuss a potential engagement
• Legitimate interests: to operate and secure the Site, understand usage, and prevent abuse, where those interests are not overridden by your rights
• Legal obligation: where processing is required by applicable law
• Consent: where required for specific processing activities and where we have obtained your consent

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

We may share information with:

• Service providers that help us operate the Site and deliver communications, including hosting and scheduling providers
• Professional advisors such as lawyers, accountants, or insurers, when reasonably necessary
• Authorities or other parties when required by law, legal process, or to protect rights, safety, and security
• Successors in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate confidentiality protections

Our current service providers involved in Site operations include, among others:

• Vercel for website hosting and web analytics
• Google Calendar for scheduling conversations initiated through the Site

These providers process information on our behalf according to their own privacy policies and contractual obligations.

We use Vercel Web Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site. Vercel states that its Web Analytics product is designed to be privacy-friendly and does not use third-party cookies for tracking purposes. Analytics data is generally aggregated and does not include the contents of your messages, your name, or your email address.

You may be able to limit certain analytics collection through your browser settings or privacy tools. Because the Site is informational and does not require login, we do not operate a separate cookie consent banner at this time.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

• Contact inquiries are retained in our business email systems for as long as needed to respond, maintain correspondence, and manage potential or active engagements
• Analytics and server logs are retained according to our providers' default retention schedules

When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of it.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include HTTPS encryption and limiting access to inquiry data on a need-to-know basis.

No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, which may include the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your information, subject to legal exceptions
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Receive a portable copy of certain information you provided to us
• Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), may provide you with additional rights regarding your personal information.

Categories collected. In the past 12 months, we may have collected identifiers (such as name and email), internet or other electronic network activity information (such as Site usage data), and professional or employment-related information you choose to provide in an inquiry.

Sources. Information is collected directly from you, automatically from your use of the Site, and from our service providers.

Business purposes. We use this information for the purposes described in Section 3, including responding to inquiries, operating the Site, security, and analytics.

Bond & Vitalis is based in the United States. If you access the Site from outside the United States, you understand that your information may be processed and stored in the United States and other countries where our service providers operate. Those countries may have data protection laws that differ from the laws of your jurisdiction.

Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for international data transfers, such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms offered by our service providers.
