Bradley Hankins Consulting may use artificial intelligence tools to assist with tasks such as organizing notes, preparing drafts, analyzing workflow information, developing recommendations, or improving internal efficiency.

Reasonable efforts will be made to avoid submitting unnecessary personal or sensitive information to AI providers.

If online payments are introduced, payment details may be collected directly by a third-party payment processor. Bradley Hankins Consulting generally would not receive or store complete payment-card information unless specifically disclosed.

The payment processor’s privacy policy and terms would govern its handling of payment information.

Email Marketing

The website does not currently operate an email newsletter or ongoing marketing list.

If email marketing is added, you may be asked to provide consent or opt in. Marketing emails will include an unsubscribe method where required. Transactional or service-related messages may still be sent when necessary to respond to a request or provide services.

Advertising and Social-Media Technologies

The website does not currently use advertising pixels or remarketing technologies.

If these technologies are introduced, they may collect information about website visits and interactions to measure advertising performance, create audiences, or deliver relevant advertising. This policy and any required consent or opt-out controls will be updated accordingly.

Bradley Hankins Consulting does not currently sell personal information for money.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

Data Security

Reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures are used to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You provide information through the website at your own risk.
