1. Overview

Shelbi Cox ("I," "me," "my") operates this site (the "Site") to showcase website work and offerings. This Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, and protected when you visit.

2. Information I Collect

This Site collects minimal information:

• Contact form submissions: When you use the contact form, I collect your name, email address, plan(s) of interest, project details, requested turnaround, and any additional message content. This data is submitted voluntarily and processed through Netlify Forms.
• Website Build Guide & subscription data (Stripe/Dropbox): When you purchase the DIY Website Build Guide or subscribe to the All-in-One Monthly plan via Zanalytics Consulting, payment is processed by Stripe and the Guide is delivered via a Dropbox download link. Stripe collects and processes your payment details directly; I receive limited order and subscription information (name, email, item or plan purchased, order/subscription ID, renewal status) to deliver the product, manage recurring billing, and respond to related inquiries. I do not store your full payment card details.
• Consulting & build inquiries: When you submit a project inquiry through the contact form, I collect the information you provide to respond to your inquiry and scope the engagement.
• Automatic data: The Site's hosting provider (Netlify) may automatically collect standard server log data such as IP addresses, browser type, and pages visited. I do not use analytics tools or tracking scripts.

3. How I Use Your Information

Information collected through the contact form is used solely to respond to your inquiry and scope any engagement that follows. I do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Cookies & Tracking

This Site does not use cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party analytics services. No advertising networks are integrated. Third-party services linked from this Site have their own cookie and privacy policies.

6. AI Tools

I may use AI-assisted tools (such as large language models) to help with behind-the-scenes tasks like drafting copy, brainstorming, organizing notes, or generating code for this Site. Any such use is limited to my own workflow. I do not feed your personal information or contact form submissions into third-party AI systems for training, and I do not use AI to make automated decisions about you.

7. Data Retention

Contact form submissions are retained only as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry and complete any engagement that follows. You may request deletion of your submitted data at any time by reaching out via the contact form.

8. Data Security

The Site is served over HTTPS to encrypt data in transit. While I take reasonable precautions to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data I hold about you

• Object to or restrict processing of your data

To exercise any of these rights, please use the contact form.
