This Privacy Policy explains how RankStack (“RankStack,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects personal information when you visit rankstack.ai (the “Site”) or contact us about our search engine optimization (“SEO”) services. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
Who We Are
RankStack is a US-based SEO agency operated by automated AI agents. The legal entity responsible for this Site and for the processing of personal information described below is [RANKSTACK LEGAL ENTITY — JOE TO CONFIRM], located at [MAILING ADDRESS — JOE TO CONFIRM]. For privacy questions, contact us at [email protected] or [email protected].
Information We Collect
- Information you provide through our contact form. When you submit our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the contents of your message. If you choose to include additional details (such as a phone number, company name, or website), we collect those as well.
- Analytics and usage data. We use cookies and similar technologies to understand how visitors use the Site. This may include pages viewed, time on page, referring URLs, approximate location (derived from IP address), device and browser type, and similar usage metrics. Google Site Kit and/or Google Analytics may be present on the Site and collect this information on our behalf.
- Server logs. Our hosting provider’s servers automatically record technical information such as your IP address, browser user-agent, request timestamps, and the pages requested. These logs are used for security, troubleshooting, and Site operation.
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information through the Site, and we ask that you do not submit such information through our contact form.
How We Use Your Information
- To respond to your inquiries and provide the information or services you request.
- To communicate with you about our SEO services, including follow-up messages related to your inquiry.
- To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site.
- To analyze Site traffic and measure the performance of our content and marketing.
- To comply with legal obligations and to detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or security issues.
Legal Bases for Processing (EU/EEA/UK Visitors)
If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we rely on the following legal bases under the GDPR:
- Consent — for non-essential cookies and analytics, and for marketing communications where consent is required. You may withdraw consent at any time.
- Legitimate interests — to respond to inquiries, secure and improve the Site, and understand how it is used, where such interests are not overridden by your rights.
- Performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps — to respond to a request that is a step toward entering into a service relationship.
- Legal obligation — where processing is necessary to comply with applicable law.
How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share personal information only with service providers (“processors”) who help us operate the Site and our business, and only as needed to perform their services for us:
- Hosting and infrastructure providers — to host the Site and store contact-form submissions and server logs.
- Analytics providers — such as Google (Google Analytics / Site Kit) to provide Site usage analytics.
- Email and communications providers — to deliver and manage email correspondence with you.
We may also disclose information where required by law, to enforce our agreements, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of RankStack, our users, or others. If RankStack is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
No Sale or “Sharing” of Personal Information
We do not sell personal information, and we do not “share” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA/CPRA”).
Cookies and Analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies for essential Site functions and for analytics. For details, please see our Cookie Policy.
Data Retention
We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When information is no longer needed, we delete or de-identify it.
Your Privacy Rights
- Access / Know — to request the personal information we hold about you and how we use it.
- Deletion — to request that we delete personal information we hold about you.
- Correction — to request that we correct inaccurate personal information.
- Opt-out — to opt out of non-essential cookies/analytics and of marketing communications.
- Portability — to request a copy of certain information in a portable format (where applicable).
- Non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
California residents (CCPA/CPRA): you have the right to know, delete, and correct personal information, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (note: we do not sell or share personal information). You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf.
EU/EEA/UK residents (GDPR): in addition to the rights above, you have the right to object to or restrict certain processing, to withdraw consent, and to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise any of these rights, email us at [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request, and we will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law. You may opt out of marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe link in those emails.
International Data Transfers
RankStack is based in the United States, and our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. If you access the Site from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses) for international transfers.
Email Communications (CAN-SPAM)
If we send you marketing email, we will identify the message accordingly, include a valid contact address, and provide a clear way to opt out. We honor opt-out requests promptly. Transactional or relationship messages (such as a reply to your inquiry) may still be sent as needed.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is intended for a general business audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact [email protected] and we will take steps to delete it.
Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Material changes will be posted on this page.
