Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide directly. The Site does not host a contact form. When you contact Hunter Audit Services directly by email or telephone, we receive the information you choose to provide, which may include your name, title, organization, email address, phone number, and a description of your needs.

Usage and technical data. When you visit the Site, our hosting infrastructure may automatically collect standard server log information, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and timestamps. This information is collected in aggregate and is not used to identify you individually.

Cookies and similar technologies. The Site uses Google Analytics 4 to measure how the Site is used. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies and may use local storage to record information such as pages viewed, links and buttons selected, approximate location derived from IP address, device and browser type, and the source that referred you to the Site. This information is used in aggregate to understand which pages and services are useful. Advertising features and ad personalization signals are disabled, and we do not use Google Analytics to build advertising audiences. The Site does not host a contact form and does not collect personal information through the Site itself. We do not use third-party advertising cookies, and we do not sell personal information. You may configure your browser to restrict cookies or similar technologies, or install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

No sensitive personal information. We do not request or intentionally collect sensitive categories of personal information such as Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, health data, or government-issued identification numbers through the Site.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To respond to inquiries received by email or telephone
• To communicate with you about services, scope, and engagement logistics
• To maintain records of communications and business inquiries
• To operate, maintain, and improve the Site

We do not use your personal information for automated decision-making or profiling.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes.

We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

• Service providers. We use third-party service providers to operate the Site and process business inquiries. These include Cloudflare for website hosting and Google for website analytics. These providers may process information on our behalf under their applicable terms and privacy practices.
• Legal requirements. We may disclose information if required to do so by law, regulation, court order, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
• Business transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or dissolution, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to standard confidentiality protections.

4. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, to conduct our business, or as required by applicable law. Records of inquiries received by email or telephone are generally retained for a period consistent with normal business record-keeping practices. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to securely delete or de-identify it.

5. Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and you submit information through the Site at your own risk. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us has been compromised, please contact us immediately.
