Privacy Policy
Last updated:
HW Adworks ("I", "me", "my") operates hwadworks.com. This page explains what information I collect from visitors and clients, how it's used, and the choices you have. By using this site or submitting a form, you agree to the practices described here.
Information I collect
When you fill out the free audit form or contact form on this site, I collect the information you voluntarily provide, which may include:
- Your name and email address
- Your website or business URL
- Your approximate monthly ad spend
- Any additional details you choose to share about your advertising goals or challenges
I do not require payment information to submit a form, and I never ask for your ad account password. Account access, if you choose to proceed, is always granted as read-only through the advertising platform's own sharing tools.
How I use your information
Information submitted through this site is used only to:
- Respond to your enquiry or audit request
- Review your advertising account, if you grant access, for the purpose of the audit or ongoing management you've requested
- Follow up about the services discussed
I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
Third-party services
This site uses the following third-party services, which may process data on their own terms:
- Netlify Forms: processes and stores form submissions so they can be delivered to my email.
- Google Analytics: collects anonymized usage data (pages visited, general location, device type) to help me understand how visitors use this site. Google Analytics uses cookies; you can opt out using your browser settings or the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
- Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising and other ad platforms: if you engage me for account management, I access your advertising account directly through that platform's own permission system, governed by that platform's privacy policy.
Cookies
This site uses cookies set by Google Analytics to understand site traffic. These cookies don't identify you personally. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time, though some site features may not function as intended if you do.
Data retention
I keep information submitted through this site for as long as needed to respond to your enquiry or, if you become a client, for the duration of our working relationship and a reasonable period afterward for record-keeping. You can request deletion of your information at any time by emailing me.
Your rights
Depending on where you're located (including under UK GDPR, EU GDPR, or similar regional laws), you may have the right to:
- Request a copy of the personal data I hold about you
- Ask me to correct inaccurate information
- Ask me to delete your information
- Withdraw consent for me to contact you
To exercise any of these rights, email me at hw@hwadworks.com.
Data security
I take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with me, including using read-only access wherever possible when reviewing ad accounts, and never requesting account passwords. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and I can't guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
I may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date at the top.
