Who we are
This website, https://impactlinq.com, is run by Impact Digital. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit, how we use it and the choices you have. If you have a question, email [email protected].
Information you give us
- Contact form. Your name, email address, phone number (if you add it) and your message. We use these only to reply to you and, if you hire us, to do the work.
- Newsletter. Your email address and, if you give them, your name and phone number. We use them to send you our articles and occasional offers.
- Comments. The details in the comment form, plus your IP address and browser user agent string, which help us detect spam.
An anonymised string created from your email address (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to see if you use it. The Gravatar privacy policy is at automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible next to it.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
We show ads from Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to show ads based on your previous visits to this site and other websites. Google’s advertising cookies let it and its partners show you ads based on those visits.
You can turn off personalised advertising in Google’s My Ad Center. You can also opt out of some other companies’ use of cookies for personalised ads at aboutads.info. You can read how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
If you visit from the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, you will see a consent message from Google before personalised ads or analytics cookies are used, and you can change your choice at any time from the link that message provides. If you use an ad blocker, you may see a message asking you to allow ads on this site.
Analytics (Google Analytics)
We use Google Analytics, through Google Site Kit and Google Tag Manager, to understand how many people visit, which pages they read and how they found us. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects information such as the pages you view, your approximate location, your device and browser, and the site that referred you. We use this only in summary form to improve the site. Where required, it respects the choice you make in the consent message.
You can stop Google Analytics from collecting your visits with Google’s opt-out browser add-on.
Affiliate links
Some links on this site are affiliate links that pass through short links such as impactlinq.com/go/hostinger/. We count the number of clicks on each short link, without recording who clicked. The company you land on may set its own cookies so it can credit us if you buy something. See our Affiliate Disclosure.
Our emails
We send emails through our Google (Gmail) account. Our newsletters can record whether an email was opened and which links were clicked, so we know what readers find useful. Every newsletter has an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing stops further newsletters straight away.
Cookies
Besides the advertising and analytics cookies above, WordPress sets a few cookies of its own:
- If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies so you don’t have to type them again. These last for one year.
- Our login page sets a temporary cookie to check that your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
- If you log in, cookies save your login and screen choices. Login cookies last two days (two weeks if you tick “Remember Me”), and screen option cookies last a year.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the site may not work properly without them.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles may include embedded content such as videos, images or posts from other websites. Embedded content behaves exactly as if you had visited the other website. Those sites may collect data about you, use cookies, add their own tracking and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in there.
Who we share your data with
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the services that help us run the site:
- Google, for advertising (AdSense), analytics (Analytics, Tag Manager, Site Kit) and email (Gmail).
- Hostinger, which hosts the website and its data.
- Gravatar, for comment profile pictures, and automated spam checks for comments.
If you request a password reset, your IP address is included in the reset email. We may also share information if the law requires it.
How long we keep your data
- Comments and their details are kept indefinitely, so we can recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically.
- Messages from the contact form are kept as long as we need them to deal with your enquiry or work with you.
- Newsletter details are kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them.
- Registered users can see, edit or delete their profile information at any time, except their username. Site administrators can also see and edit it.
Your rights
You can ask us for a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. We may need to keep some data for administrative, legal or security reasons. Email [email protected] and we will reply within 30 days.
Children
This site is written for business owners and marketers. It is not meant for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when our tools or the law change. The date at the top shows the latest version.
