Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and what choices you have. We keep it plain and honest — no legalese for its own sake.
This Privacy Policy applies to anyone who visits bizporch.com, creates a BizPorch account, or uses the BizPorch platform to build and manage a business website. It covers both the account holder (you, the business owner) and visitors to your BizPorch-powered site.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your data for advertising purposes.
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We share information only in the following limited circumstances:
We use trusted third-party services to operate BizPorch. These providers only process your data as instructed by us and are bound by confidentiality obligations:
We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
If BizPorch is acquired, merged, or undergoes a significant business transfer, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
When visitors come to your BizPorch-powered site, we collect limited analytics data on your behalf — specifically page views, unique visitors, and click events. This data is aggregated and does not include personally identifiable information about your visitors. We do not build profiles of your site's visitors or use their data for any purpose other than providing analytics to you.
If you collect any personal information from your site's visitors (e.g. through a contact form), you are responsible for handling that data in compliance with applicable privacy laws.
We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal information and site content within a reasonable period, typically within 30 days, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as resolving disputes or fraud prevention.
Billing records may be retained longer as required by financial regulations.
We take security seriously and implement industry-standard measures to protect your data, including:
No system is perfectly secure. In the event of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you as required by applicable law.
BizPorch uses only essential cookies necessary to operate the platform:
We do not use advertising cookies, third-party tracking cookies, or analytics cookies on our own platform. Your visitors' browsers may receive session cookies when they visit your site for similar security purposes.
You have the following rights regarding your personal information:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@bizporch.com.
BizPorch is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly. If you believe we may have such information, please contact us.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by email or through a notice in your Dashboard. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects when the policy was last revised. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

We will respond to privacy-related requests within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 5 business days.
