Privacy Policy

Workbench SEO (“Workbench SEO,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through https://workbenchseo.com(the “Site”), how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.

By using the Site or submitting information through our contact form, you agree to the practices described in this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or submit your information.

Information we collect

We collect two categories of information:

Information you provide directly. When you fill out the contact form or email us, we collect the information you give us — typically your name, email address, company name, industry, team size, and the content of your message. If you opt in to SMS follow-up, we also collect any phone number you provide for that purpose.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we and our service providers automatically collect technical information when you visit the Site. This can include IP address, browser type, device and operating system information, referring URL, pages viewed, and timestamps. We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site and understand how visitors use it.

How we use information

We use the information we collect to:

• Respond to inquiries and follow up on consultation requests.
• Send transactional messages related to your request (email and, with your consent, SMS).
• Send occasional marketing updates you have asked to receive, with a clear way to opt out.
• Operate, secure, maintain, and improve the Site.
• Understand which pages and content are useful to visitors.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

SMS communications

If you opt in to SMS follow-up on our contact form, you are consenting to receive text messages from Workbench SEO related to your inquiry. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. Reply STOP to opt out at any time, or HELP for help. Opting in to SMS is not a condition of engaging our services, and consent can be revoked at any time.

Cookies and analytics

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies for basic functionality, performance measurement, and analytics. Cookies are small files stored on your device that help the Site work and help us understand how it is used.

We may use third-party analytics providers (for example, Vercel Analytics or Google Analytics) to measure traffic and engagement. These providers may set their own cookies and process limited technical information under their own privacy policies. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling cookies may affect how the Site functions.

Service providers

We share information with a limited number of service providers who help us operate the Site and our business — for example, website hosting, email delivery, CRM, analytics, and, where applicable, SMS delivery. These providers are only permitted to use the information to provide their services to us and are expected to protect it in a manner consistent with this Policy.

Legal disclosures

We may disclose information when we believe in good faith that disclosure is required to comply with a legal obligation, respond to a lawful request, protect our rights or property, protect the safety of any person, or investigate potential violations of our Terms of Service.

Data retention

We retain information for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this Policy — typically, as long as we have an active business relationship or inquiry from you, plus a reasonable period afterward to comply with legal, accounting, and reporting obligations. You may request deletion at any time using the contact information below.

Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures designed to protect the information we collect. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If we become aware of a significant security incident affecting your information, we will notify you and any required authorities as the law requires.

Your choices and rights

You can update the information you have provided, opt out of marketing emails using the unsubscribe link in any message, or opt out of SMS by replying STOP. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights — for example, to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, or to object to certain uses. To exercise any of these rights, contact hello@workbenchseo.com. We will respond in accordance with applicable law.

If you are a California resident, you have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act, including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to request deletion, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. We do not sell personal information.

Children’s privacy

The Site is intended for business owners and other adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

Third-party links

The Site may link to third-party websites we do not operate. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit.

Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Material changes will be highlighted on the Site or communicated to you where appropriate. Continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised Policy.
