Privacy Policy

About this policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Paroin Advisory Group LLC (“Paroin,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information through this informational website (the “Site”). Paroin is a technology advisory firm based in Florida, United States.

This policy applies to the Paroin website. Other businesses we link to may operate their own websites and follow separate privacy practices.

Information we collect

When you send us a message through the contact form, we receive the information you choose to submit, including your name, email address, optional company or organization, and message. If you contact us directly by email, we receive the information included in that correspondence.

Our hosting and security providers may also process technical information needed to operate, deliver, and protect the Site, such as IP addresses, browser and device information, dates and times of access, and diagnostic logs. We do not ask you to provide sensitive personal or confidential business information through the form.

Analytics, cookies, and similar technologies

With your consent, we use Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google, to understand how visitors find and use the Site and to improve our content and services. Analytics information includes pages and articles viewed, referral sources, browser and device information, approximate location, and interactions such as scrolling, link clicks, and use of the contact form.

When enabled, Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect usage information and distinguish visitors and visits. Analytics information is transmitted to and processed by Google to provide reports about use of the Site.

We do not send names, email addresses, message contents, or other information entered into our contact form to Google Analytics. Our hosting and security providers may use essential cookies or similar technologies when needed to keep the Site functioning safely and reliably.

For more information about how Google collects and processes information, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and Google’s Privacy Policy.

How we use information

We use the information we receive to read and respond to inquiries, consider business introductions and potential advisory engagements, direct inquiries to the appropriate contact when relevant, improve the Site, protect our systems from abuse, and fulfill applicable legal and operational obligations.

Providing information through our form does not automatically establish a business, employment, confidential, or advisory relationship.

When information is shared

We may share information with third-party service providers that assist with website hosting, contact form processing, email communications, analytics, and site security, as needed to provide those services. Google receives analytics information as described above.

We may also disclose information if legally required or reasonably necessary to protect rights or security. We do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

How long we retain information

We retain inquiries and related correspondence only as long as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain appropriate business records, evaluate potential advisory engagements, meet legal requirements, or resolve issues. The period may differ depending on the nature of the inquiry. We do not currently publish a fixed retention schedule.

Analytics information is retained according to the retention settings applied to the service. Aggregated reports may be retained for longer than the underlying visitor and event records.

When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete it or otherwise dispose of it, subject to applicable legal duties and ordinary service-provider backup processes.

Safeguards and external websites

We use reasonable measures to protect information in our care. No website, email system, or method of internet transmission is guaranteed to be completely secure. Please avoid submitting passwords, medical details, financial account information, trade secrets, or other sensitive material.

Links to other websites are provided for convenience. Those websites are responsible for their own content and privacy practices.

Your choices and privacy requests

Analytics cookies are optional. Google Analytics stays off until you select Accept in our cookie notice. Select Reject to turn analytics off. If no choice has been saved, closing the notice with × or Escape also saves a rejection. Once you have accepted or rejected, closing the notice keeps your current choice. You can use the Site and contact form normally without accepting. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time through Cookie settings in the footer. Withdrawing stops future analytics collection and removes the Site’s accessible analytics cookies; it does not delete information already collected. We store your choice in a necessary preference cookie for up to 180 days, where your browser allows it. The choice applies to this browser on this website. Clearing cookies may reset it.

You can also install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on in a supported desktop browser to prevent Google Analytics from using information about your visits. Browser controls and opt-out choices generally apply to the browser or device on which you make them.

You may contact us at hello@paroin.com to ask about the personal information we hold about you, request correction or deletion, or raise another privacy concern. Depending on where you live, applicable law may provide additional rights. We may need to verify the request before acting and may retain information where required or permitted by law.

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly solicit personal information from children under 13. If you believe such information was submitted, please contact us.

Updates and contact

We may revise this policy as our practices, technology, or legal requirements change. Any updated policy will be posted on this page with a new effective date.

Privacy questions or requests may be sent to hello@paroin.com. Paroin Advisory Group LLC is based in Florida, United States.
