Privacy Policy
Effective: June 30, 2025Last updated: July 13, 2026
1. Introduction
Dominion Business Advisors is committed to protecting the privacy of its visitors. This policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information obtained through our website and digital services.
2. Scope
This policy applies to all visitors and users who access our services electronically. It covers information collected online. Offline data practices are governed separately by our internal confidentiality standards and applicable law.
3. Information We Collect
3.1 Personal information you provide
We collect contact details when you submit forms, including your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and company information. We also gather the content of communications you send by email, chat, or web form, and we may collect user-generated content such as testimonials if you consent to publication.
3.2 Automatically collected information
Usage data we collect includes IP addresses, browser specifications, pages visited, access timestamps, referral URLs, and device information. We use cookies, both session and persistent, to improve your experience and analyze site usage. Web beacons and pixel tags help us understand email open rates and page engagement. Third-party analytics tools gather aggregated, de-identified metrics.
3.3 Information from third parties
Information may reach us through referral partners or aggregators for follow-up purposes. We may verify details from publicly available sources when servicing an existing relationship. Third-party integrations through social login or authentication services operate under your consent and the third party's own policies.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use collected information to provide and manage our services, respond to inquiries, send newsletters and marketing communications (with an opt-out always available), improve website performance and security, and comply with applicable laws and regulations.
5. Legal Bases for Processing
We process information under several legal frameworks: your consent for marketing emails and opt-in uses, contractual necessity for fulfilling service requests, legitimate interests for analytics and security, and legal obligations for regulatory compliance and record retention.
6. Sharing and Disclosure of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share data with service providers and vendors performing functions under contractual data-protection obligations, with affiliated entities for administrative purposes, and with regulatory authorities in response to legal requirements. In a business transfer, a successor must honor this policy or notify you of material changes. Disclosure also occurs with your express consent.
7. Cookies, Tracking, and Opt-Out
You may configure your browser to refuse cookies, though this may impair some functionality. Analytics cookies offer opt-out options through browser add-ons or provider mechanisms. We present consent banners where legally required for non-essential tracking.
8. Data Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No system guarantees absolute security. We comply with breach-notification requirements and take mitigation steps when needed.
9. Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the stated purposes, including service delivery and regulatory compliance. After retention periods end, data is securely deleted or de-identified, except where a legal obligation requires longer retention.
10. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, subject to regulatory obligations. Your rights include opting out of marketing communications, managing cookie preferences, requesting data portability, and, for California residents, opting out of the sale or sharing of information. We may require identity verification before fulfilling a request.
11. Children's Privacy
This site is not directed toward children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from minors. If we inadvertently collect data from a minor, we delete it promptly.
12. International Transfers
Our operations are based in the United States, and we may transfer and process information there. Accessing the site from outside the United States constitutes your consent to such transfers.
13. Third-Party Links and Integrations
This policy does not apply to third-party sites, which maintain their own privacy policies. Embedded widgets operate under third-party privacy practices.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We update this policy to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or business operations. Material changes update the "Last updated" date and may trigger a notice. Continued use of the site after changes indicates your acceptance.
