Pages on this website may include content or functionality provided by third parties, such as videos, maps, social media features, forms, analytics tools, payment services, scheduling services, fonts, spam-prevention systems or other externally hosted resources.
When you interact with third-party content or services, those providers may collect information about your device, browser, IP address or interaction with their services according to their own privacy policies.
Georgia Web Development does not control the privacy practices of independent third-party providers.

Payment Information
Payments may be processed using third-party payment processors, financial institutions or invoicing platforms.
Georgia Web Development does not intentionally store complete payment card numbers or card security codes on its web servers. Payment information submitted directly to a third-party payment provider is governed by that provider’s privacy and security practices.
Artificial Intelligence and Automated Tools
Georgia Web Development may use artificial intelligence, automation, development tools and other technology-assisted services as part of its internal business operations and in providing professional services.
These tools may assist with activities such as research, development, coding, troubleshooting, content development, data organization, analysis, documentation and administrative tasks.
We seek to use these tools responsibly and in a manner appropriate to the nature of the information and work involved. We do not intentionally submit client passwords, payment card information or other highly sensitive credentials to public AI systems as part of routine project work.
Information appropriately processed through third-party technology providers may also be subject to those providers’ contractual terms, security practices and privacy policies.
Client Websites, Systems and Data
As a website developer, administrator, hosting provider, consultant or technical service provider, Georgia Web Development may be given authorized access to client websites, hosting accounts, databases, eCommerce systems, analytics accounts, advertising platforms, email systems, customer information or other digital resources.
Information accessed while performing client work is used for legitimate project, maintenance, support, troubleshooting, security, administrative or other authorized business purposes.
Clients remain responsible for determining the privacy, legal, regulatory and data-handling requirements applicable to their own businesses, websites, customers, employees and operations unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and operational measures intended to protect information under our control. These measures may include encrypted connections, access controls, authentication systems, firewalls, malware and security monitoring, backups, software updates and other security practices appropriate to our operations.
However, no website, server, network, database, email system, cloud service or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted to or stored by us or third-party providers.
Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and for legitimate business, contractual, accounting, tax, security, backup, dispute-resolution and legal purposes.
Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information, the services provided, contractual requirements and applicable legal obligations.
Email Communications
If you contact Georgia Web Development or become a client, we may communicate with you regarding your inquiry, project, account, services, invoices, support requests, security matters or other aspects of our business relationship.
If we send promotional or marketing emails, you may unsubscribe using the instructions provided in those communications or by contacting us directly. Transactional, project-related, account, billing, security or service communications may still be sent when necessary.
Third-Party Websites and Links
Our website may contain links to websites, services or resources operated by third parties. Georgia Web Development does not control and is not responsible for the privacy, security, content or business practices of independent third-party websites.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing personal information to them.
Children’s Privacy
Our website and professional services are intended for businesses, organizations, entrepreneurs and adults and are not directed toward children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through this website. If we become aware that such information has been collected in circumstances requiring deletion, we may take reasonable steps to remove it.
Privacy Rights and Requests
Depending on where you reside and the laws applicable to a particular situation, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These may include rights to request access to, correction of or deletion of certain personal information, or to obtain information about how certain information is used or disclosed.
Not every privacy law or statutory right applies to every individual, business or situation. Georgia Web Development will evaluate legitimate privacy requests in accordance with applicable law.

United States and State Privacy Laws
Georgia Web Development is based in Georgia, United States. Various federal and state privacy laws may provide rights to residents when statutory requirements and applicability thresholds are met.
Where a privacy law applies to Georgia Web Development and to a particular request, we will make reasonable efforts to comply with the requirements applicable to us. Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to represent that every privacy statute applies to Georgia Web Development or to create rights beyond those provided by applicable law.
Do Not Track and Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers and devices provide privacy preference signals or “Do Not Track” settings. Because standards and legal requirements concerning these signals continue to evolve and may vary by jurisdiction and technology, our website may not respond uniformly to every browser-based signal.
Where recognition of a particular privacy preference signal is required by applicable law, we will endeavor to comply with those requirements.
Business Transfers
If Georgia Web Development undergoes a reorganization, sale, acquisition, merger, transfer of assets or other change in business ownership or structure, information associated with the business may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
