Privacy Policy

Stride & Summit (“we,” “us”) helps small and medium-sized businesses get more customers from their websites and online presence. This policy explains what information we collect through strideandsummit.com, our forms, and our ads, and how we use it.

Information you give us. When you request a website audit, use one of our free tools, download a guide, subscribe to our newsletter, or contact us, we collect what you enter. Depending on the form, this can include your name, email address, phone number, business name, website address, business type, location, and answers about your business (for example, how customers find you or your approximate revenue range).

Facebook and Instagram lead forms. If you submit one of our lead forms on Facebook or Instagram, Meta shares the information you submit in that form with us. Meta may pre-fill some fields from your profile; you can review and edit them before submitting.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting provider records standard technical data such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited. We also use the Meta Pixel, described below.

Public business information. When preparing an audit, we review publicly available information about your business, such as your website, Google Business Profile, search results, and online reviews.

• To prepare and deliver the audit, tool results, or resources you requested
• To respond to your questions and follow up about services you may be interested in
• To send our newsletter and related emails, if you subscribe
• To understand which of our marketing works and improve our website and services
• To protect our site from spam and abuse

We use the Meta Pixel, a tool from Meta Platforms, Inc., to measure how our Facebook and Instagram ads perform and to show relevant ads to people who have visited our site. The Pixel uses cookies and similar technologies to record actions such as page views and form submissions.

When you submit a form, we may also send Meta a notice of that submission through Meta's Conversions API. Your email address is sent only in hashed (scrambled) form, not as readable text.

You can control ad personalization in your Facebook ad preferences and block cookies in your browser settings.

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers that help us run our business, and only as needed for them to do so:

• Vercel hosts our website
• Resend sends our emails and manages our newsletter list
• Upstash stores form submissions and related data
• Meta provides ad measurement and lead forms
• Twilio sends text messages, if you have asked us to contact you that way
• Gumroad processes purchases of our digital products

We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights, users, or the public.

We keep your information for as long as needed to provide what you asked for and to follow up about it, and for a reasonable period afterward for our records. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

• Unsubscribe: every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link.
• Access, correct, or delete: email us at hello@strideandsummit.comand we'll respond within 30 days. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under local privacy laws, and we'll honor them.

We use reputable providers and reasonable safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we can't guarantee absolute security.

Our services are for businesses and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll change the effective date at the top of this page.
