Privacy Policy

Effective Date: August 17, 2026

Allume LLC ("Allume," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our website allumeadvising.com, how we use it, and the choices you have.

By using our website, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Information you provide directly: Contact information (name, email address, and any details you choose to share) when you book a call through Cal.com or email us directly. Any information you voluntarily share during a consultation, coaching engagement, or consulting relationship is governed separately by your signed engagement agreement/MSA, where applicable.

Information collected automatically: Basic technical data (IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring site) via standard website hosting logs. We do not currently use analytics tools, ad pixels, or cookies to track visitors. If that changes (e.g., we add Google Analytics), we will update this policy accordingly.

Information from third-party tools we use to run our business: Cal.com collects scheduling data (name, email, selected time) when you book a call. Zoom collects meeting participation data if you join a video call with us. Google Workspace (Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar) is used internally to manage communications and scheduling, and information you send us via email is stored here.

We do not sell your personal information.

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We use the information we collect to respond to inquiries and schedule consultations, deliver coaching and consulting services under a signed agreement, improve our website and services, comply with legal and tax obligations, and communicate with you about your engagement with Allume.

We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share information with service providers who help us operate (Cal.com, Zoom, Google Workspace) solely to perform services on our behalf; with legal or regulatory authorities if required by law, subpoena, or legal process; and with a successor entity in the event of a business transfer, merger, or sale of Allume LLC.

Each third-party service we use has its own privacy policy governing how it handles data: Cal.com (https://cal.com/privacy), Zoom (https://explore.zoom.us/en/trust/privacy/), and Google (https://policies.google.com/privacy).

DATA RETENTION

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including maintaining business records for tax and legal compliance (generally consistent with Maine and federal recordkeeping requirements), unless a longer retention period is required by law.

COOKIES AND TRACKING

Our website currently does not use tracking cookies, analytics tools, or advertising pixels. If this changes in the future, we will update this policy to reflect what's in use and how you can opt out.

YOUR RIGHTS AND CHOICES

Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, request correction or deletion of your information, and opt out of certain data processing where applicable.

To exercise these rights, contact us through the scheduling link on our website to request a conversation, or via any communication channel you've already used with us.

VISITORS' GDPR RIGHTS

If you are within the European Union, you have certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation, including the right to:

  • Request access to the personal data we hold about you, and to have it corrected or erased

  • Request that we restrict how we process your data

  • Object to our processing of your data

  • Receive a copy of your data in a portable format

  • Withdraw consent at any time, where our processing is based on your consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before your withdrawal

  • Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority with jurisdiction over data protection in your country

We retain personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, and only request the information reasonably necessary to provide our services.

EMAIL COMMUNICATIONS

Email is not a fully secure medium of communication. If you choose to correspond with us by email, please be mindful of what sensitive information you include, as we cannot guarantee its security in transit. Any content you share with us by email is used solely to respond to you and to support the services we provide.

DATA SECURITY

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including relying on the security practices of reputable third-party providers (Google Workspace, Cal.com, Zoom). However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

Our website and services are not directed to individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Effective Date" at the top will reflect the most recent version. Continued use of our website after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
