Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you voluntarily submit through this Site — including your name, email address, and any details provided in contact, consultation, or resource-download forms. We also collect limited technical data such as a hashed IP address and your browser's user-agent string for security and fraud-prevention purposes.

2. How We Use Your Email Address

When you download a checklist, guide, or other resource, we use your email address to:

• Deliver the resource you requested.
• Send related follow-up materials, firm updates, new resources, event invitations, and other communications we believe will be useful to you.
• Respond to inquiries you initiate.

By submitting your email, you agree to receive these communications. You may unsubscribe at any time — every marketing email contains a one-click unsubscribe link, and you may also email info@carringtonfirm.com with the subject line "Unsubscribe." Once you unsubscribe, your address is added to our permanent suppression list and will not receive further marketing email.

3. What We Will Never Do

• We never sell, rent, or trade your email address or personal information.
• We never share your data with third parties for their independent marketing.
• We never send communications you have opted out of receiving.

4. Service Providers

We rely on reputable service providers to operate the Site, deliver email, and host data. These providers are bound by confidentiality and data-protection obligations and may only use your information to provide services on our behalf.

5. Data Security

Your information is stored on secure infrastructure with encryption in transit and at rest. Access is limited to authorized personnel. No system is perfectly secure, but we apply industry-standard safeguards and review them regularly.

6. Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as needed to provide our services and to comply with our legal and recordkeeping obligations. You may request deletion of your information by contacting us at the address below, subject to limits imposed by applicable law and professional-responsibility rules.

7. Your Choices

• Unsubscribe from marketing email using the link in any message.
• Request access to or correction of the information we hold about you.
• Request deletion of your information, subject to legal limits.

8. Cookies & Analytics

The Site may use essential cookies for functionality and may use analytics tools to understand aggregate usage patterns. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles about you.

9. Children

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
