Secure Ideas, LLC Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Secure Ideas, LLC (“Secure Ideas,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you visit secureideas.com (the “Site”), contact us, subscribe to our communications, register for webcasts, events, or training, or otherwise interact with us through the Site.

1. Who We Are and What This Policy Covers

Secure Ideas, LLC
3412 Kori Road, Jacksonville, Florida 32257
Privacy contact: privacy@secureideas.com

This Policy covers personal information collected through the Site and related marketing and communications. It does not cover information we handle on behalf of clients during security testing, consulting, PCI security, or other engagements, or information in the Client Portal. That information is governed by our agreements with those clients. It also does not cover our related website, professionallyevil.com, which has its own privacy policy.

Information you submit as a job applicant through our Careers page is covered by this Policy and is used only for recruiting and related purposes. Applications are received and stored in HubSpot, the customer relationship management system we also use for other Site forms. Browsing the Careers pages is treated like browsing any other page of the Site (see Section 6).

2. Information We Collect

Information You Provide

• Contact details: name, email address, phone number, company, and job title when you submit a form, request a call or quote, subscribe to our newsletter, or schedule a meeting.
• Registration details: information you provide when you register for webcasts, events, or training.
• Communications: messages and files you send us and your marketing preferences.
• Job applications: if you apply through our Careers page, we collect your name, contact details, resume or CV, work history, education, references, and any other information you choose to provide. We do not ask for Social Security numbers or government ID numbers at the application stage.
• Payments: we do not accept payments through the Site, and we do not collect payment card or bank account information through secureideas.com.
  
  

Information Collected Automatically

• Device and usage data: IP address, browser type and version, device identifiers, operating system, pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked, referring website, and dates and times of visits
• Approximate location and organization derived from your IP address
• Identifiers set by cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies, and a record of your cookie choices (see Section 6)
• Browser signals, such as Global Privacy Control
  
  

Information from Third Parties

• ZoomInfo: business contact information such as name, business email address, job title, employer, business phone number, and company details. See Section 3.
• Leadfeeder (if we enable it): the organization associated with an IP address that visited the Site, together with its visit activity. See Section 3.
• HubSpot: form submissions, email engagement, and records in our customer relationship management system.

3. Visitor Identification and Business-Contact Data (ZoomInfo and Leadfeeder)

We use third-party tools to understand which organizations and professionals may be interested in our services. These tools run only after you accept the Advertisement category in our cookie banner, and never when your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal (see Section 6).

ZoomInfo provides business contact and company information that we use to identify and reach prospective business customers and to keep our records accurate. We also use ZoomInfo WebSights, a script on the Site that collects visitor information (such as IP address, device identifiers, and pages viewed) and matches visits to organizations, so our team can see which organizations are interested. ZoomInfo processes this information to provide the service to us and may use it as described in its privacy notice (https://www.zoominfo.com/legal/privacy-policy). If we obtain information about you from ZoomInfo, it is business contact information, and you may object to our use of it as described below.

We may also use Leadfeeder (now part of Dealfront). If we enable it, Leadfeeder uses a script on the Site to match visitor IP addresses to organizations and combines that with visit activity (pages viewed, time on site, and referral source) so our team can see which organizations have shown interest. It would run only under the same conditions as ZoomInfo.

We use these tools for our legitimate business interest in marketing and selling our services to businesses. We do not use them to make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on individuals.

Your choices. You can object to or opt out of this processing at any time by emailing privacy@secureideas.com, by declining the Advertisement category in our cookie banner, or by enabling Global Privacy Control in your browser. You can also exercise opt-out rights directly with each provider under its own privacy notice, including ZoomInfo’s “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” page at https://www.zoominfo.com/trust-center/your-privacy. For all visitors, including those in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, visitor-identification scripts load only after you consent through our cookie banner (see Sections 6 and 10).

4. How We Use Information

We use personal information to:

• Respond to inquiries, provide quotes, and schedule meetings
• Provide webcasts, events, training, and other services you request
• Send marketing and informational emails, which you can unsubscribe from at any time
• Identify, prioritize, and communicate with prospective business customers
• Analyze and improve the Site, content, and marketing
• Operate the Site and remember your cookie choices
• Maintain the security of the Site and prevent fraud and abuse
• Review and process job applications, communicate with applicants, and meet recruiting and legal obligations
• Comply with legal obligations, enforce our agreements, and protect our rights

5. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information for money. See Section 9.3 for how certain tools we use handle visitor information. We share information with:

• Service providers that act on our behalf, including HubSpot (customer relationship management, forms, email marketing, and backup hosting of Site pages if our primary hosting is unavailable); Elementor (website hosting and our cookie consent tool); Cloudflare (content delivery and security); Google (Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, reCAPTCHA, and YouTube); and ZoomInfo and, if we enable it, Leadfeeder (visitor identification, Section 3)
• Professional advisors, authorities, and others where required by law, to protect rights and safety, or to investigate fraud or security incidents
• Business transfer recipients in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets
• Others with your direction or consent

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies. Appendix A lists the cookies we use. What runs depends on your choices:

Your choices. When you first visit, our cookie banner lets you accept all non-essential cookies, deny them, or customize by category. This applies to visitors everywhere, not only those in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland. Analytics and visitor-identification tags do not run until you consent to the matching category. You can change your choice at any time using the cookie settings button in the bottom right corner of the Site. We remember your choice for about six months.

Global Privacy Control. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as a request to decline all non-essential cookies and tags, including analytics, visitor identification, and advertising tools. We apply this automatically and do not show the cookie banner. To allow them later, turn off GPC in your browser and the banner will appear.

Do Not Track. We do not respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals because there is no uniform standard, but we do honor Global Privacy Control.

Tools that run before you choose, such as Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare, connect your browser to those providers’ servers. Visiting our Careers pages is treated like visiting any other page for the purposes above. Blocking some cookies may affect Site features.

This site is protected by reCAPTCHA, and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.

7. Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes in this Policy and to meet legal, tax, and contractual requirements. Typical periods: contact and lead records, 12 months after last activity; website analytics, 14 months; marketing consent records, for as long as needed to prove consent; and job applications, 12 months after the position is filled, and not less than any period required by law. Cookie lifetimes are listed in Appendix A. When information is no longer needed, we delete or de-identify it.

8. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your Privacy Choices and Rights (U.S. Residents)

Some states give residents rights over their personal information. Whether or not a particular state law applies to us, you may contact us about your personal information as described below, and we will respond as required by applicable law and otherwise in good faith.

9.1 Choices Available to Everyone

• Unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link in any message
• Manage cookies through our cookie banner, the cookie settings button, or your browser
• Enable Global Privacy Control (GPC) in your browser. We honor GPC and other recognized universal opt-out signals as a request to decline non-essential cookies and tags, including analytics, visitor-identification, and advertising tools (Section 6)
  
  

9.2 Requests You Can Make

You may email us to ask to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you or receive a copy of it
• Correct inaccurate personal information
• Delete your personal information, subject to legal exceptions (for example, records we must keep for legal or accounting purposes)
• Opt out of marketing emails or of the use of your Site activity by the analytics and visitor-identification tools described in Sections 3 and 6

We may decline a request where the law permits, and we will tell you why.

9.3 Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money or any other form of compensation. After you accept the Advertisement category, the Site uses third-party scripts (ZoomInfo and, if we enable it, Leadfeeder) that collect information about visitors, such as IP address, device identifiers, pages viewed, and approximate location derived from IP address. Some of the analytics and advertising technologies described in Section 6 may be considered “sharing” or “targeted advertising” under some state laws. You can opt out by declining the Analytical or Advertisement category in the cookie banner, by using the cookie settings button, or by enabling GPC. Those providers may use information as described in their own privacy notices (ZoomInfo’s is at https://www.zoominfo.com/legal/privacy-policy). We do not knowingly sell the personal information of anyone under 16.

9.4 Sensitive Personal Information

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information through the Site.

9.5 How to Submit a Request

• Email: privacy@secureideas.com
• Phone (toll-free): 866-404-7837
  
  

Please include your name, the email address we have on file, and what you would like us to do. We may verify your identity by matching the information you provide to information we already hold. We will respond within a reasonable time, and generally within 45 days. If we cannot honor a request, you may reply to ask us to reconsider.

9.6 Categories of Personal Information We Collect

In the preceding 12 months, we collected the following categories of personal information:

We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

10. Visitors from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, and Switzerland (GDPR)

If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, this section applies in addition to the rest of this Policy. Secure Ideas, LLC is the controller of your personal information.

Your rights. You have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict, and port your information; to object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing; and to withdraw consent at any time. We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing that significantly affect you. Email privacy@secureideas.com to exercise your rights. We will respond within one month, extendable by up to two further months for complex requests.

Data we receive from third parties. Where we receive information about you from a provider such as ZoomInfo and have not collected it from you directly, we will tell you the source and the purposes when we first contact you, or within one month of obtaining it, and you may object to our use of it at any time. We have configured our ZoomInfo account to hide contact information for contacts in the European Union and to suppress phone numbers and contact information for contacts in Ireland and the UK.

Complaints. You may complain to your local data protection authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk). We would appreciate the chance to address your concerns first.

International transfers. Your information is transferred to and processed in the United States, including by our hosting, content delivery, and CRM providers. Where required, we rely on safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (and the UK Addendum) with our providers, or the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework where a recipient is certified.

11. Children’s Privacy

The Site is intended for business audiences and is not directed to anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us and we will delete it.

12. Links, Embedded Video, and Social Media

The Site links to third-party websites and to our pages on social platforms, including Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube. Those services have their own privacy practices, and we are not responsible for them. Meta and Secure Ideas may act as joint controllers of Insights data for visitors to the Fan Page. See Meta’s privacy policy for details.

Some pages embed YouTube videos. Video thumbnails load only after you accept the Advertisement category, and the YouTube player loads only when you choose to play a video. Playing a video shares your IP address and device information with YouTube (Google).

13. Changes to This Policy

We review this Policy at least every 12 months. We will post the updated version with a new “Last Updated” date and give additional notice of material changes as required by law.
