Last updated: October 30, 2026

This policy explains what information Growthopedia LLC (“Growthopedia”, “we”, “us”) collects when you use growthopedia.com (the “Site”) or contact us, how we use it, and the choices you have. Growthopedia is an SEO and digital marketing consultancy based in Albany, NY.

1. Information you give us

When you fill out a form on the Site (the consultation form, the contact form or the discovery questionnaire), we collect what you enter. Depending on the form, that can include:

  • your name and email address
  • your company name and website
  • your budget range and the services you are interested in
  • your message and any answers you give in the discovery questionnaire (for example your goals, audience, competitors and the tools you use)
  • whether you asked to receive occasional SEO and AI search tips by email

If you email or call us, we keep the information you share in that conversation.

2. Information collected automatically

  • Form metadata. When you submit a form we also store the page you sent it from, the date and time, your approximate country (from our hosting provider) and your browser’s user-agent string. We use this to prevent spam and understand which pages bring in enquiries.
  • Analytics, only with your consent. If you click “Accept” on the cookie notice, we use Google Analytics through Google Tag Manager to understand how visitors use the Site (pages viewed, time on page, device and browser type, approximate location and similar usage data). If you click “Decline” or ignore the notice, analytics and advertising cookies stay off.
  • Server logs. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver the Site securely and protect it from abuse.

3. Cookies and browser storage

We use a small amount of browser storage to remember your cookie choice and a few display preferences (for example, whether the intro animation has already played or your answer to “Was this helpful?” on a blog post). These stay on your device. Google Analytics cookies are set only after you accept them. You can clear cookies and site data in your browser at any time; the cookie notice will then appear again.

4. How we use information

  • to reply to your enquiry and schedule calls
  • to prepare proposals and deliver services you hire us for
  • to send occasional tips by email, only if you opted in (every email includes a way to unsubscribe)
  • to understand and improve the Site and our content
  • to keep the Site secure and prevent spam or misuse
  • to meet legal, tax and accounting obligations

We do not sell or rent your personal information, and we do not use it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

5. Who we share it with

We share information only with service providers that help us run the Site and the business, and only as needed for that purpose:

  • Cloudflare: website hosting, security and the database that stores form submissions
  • Google: Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (with consent), and Google Workspace for email
  • Email delivery providers: to send us a notification when you submit a form
  • Embedded content providers: the Site loads fonts from Google Fonts, scripts from public code libraries (cdnjs and unpkg) and map tiles from OpenStreetMap, which receive your IP address when your browser requests those files

We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or as part of a business transfer.

6. Free AI Visibility Check

The Free AI Visibility Check runs on a separate Growthopedia tool. The business details you enter there are used to run the check and show your results. If you then contact us, this policy applies to that conversation.

7. How long we keep it

We keep enquiry and client information for as long as we need it to respond to you, provide services and meet legal and accounting requirements. You can ask us to delete your enquiry at any time.

8. Security

Form submissions are sent over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection and stored in a database that only Growthopedia can access, behind sign-in. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.

9. Your choices and rights

You can ask us to tell you what personal information we hold about you, correct it, or delete it, and you can unsubscribe from emails at any time. Depending on where you live (for example California, or the EU and UK), you may have additional rights under local law, such as the right to data portability or to object to certain processing. To make a request, email hello@growthopedia.com. We will respond within the time the law requires and will not treat you differently for exercising your rights.

10. Children

The Site is meant for businesses and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

11. Links to other sites

The Site links to client websites, social media and other third-party sites. Their privacy practices are their own; please review their policies.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above shows when it last changed. Significant changes will be noted on this page.
