Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 08, 2025

Hey there! At The Coding Nerds, we’re all about coding success for your business—and that includes keeping your data safe. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your info when you visit http://thecodingnerds.com or use our services. So, let’s geek out on the details.

1. What We Collect

We gather some bits and bytes to make your experience awesome:

  • Personal Info: Name, email, phone—stuff you share via forms (e.g., Contact Form 7) or when you sign up as a client.
  • Usage Data: IP address, browser type, pages visited—tracked via Google Analytics to see how you navigate our digital galaxy.
  • Payment Info: Billing details go straight to FreshBooks—we don’t store that here.

2. How We Use It

Your data fuels our mission:

  • To reply to inquiries or deliver services (e.g., SEO audits, email campaigns).
  • To analyze site performance and tweak our nerdy strategies.
  • To send you updates or offers—but only if you opt in. No spam, promise!

3. Who We Share With

We’re not data hoarders. We only share when needed:

  • Third Parties: Tools like FreshBooks (billing) or Google Analytics (stats) process data under their policies—check FreshBooks Privacy and Google’s Privacy.
  • Legal Stuff: If the law knocks, we comply.

4. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies—tiny code snippets—to enhance your visit. They track usage and remember preferences. Don’t like ‘em? Tweak your browser settings to opt out, but heads-up: some features might glitch.

5. Data Security

We’ve got firewalls and encryption in place—think of it as a digital moat. Still, no system’s unhackable, so we can’t guarantee 100% safety. We’ll notify you fast if a breach hits your info.

6. Your Rights

You’re the admin of your data:

  • Ask to see, update, or delete it—email info@thecodingnerds.com.
  • Opt out of marketing emails anytime—hit “unsubscribe” in the footer.
  • For EU folks (GDPR), you’ve got extra rights like data portability—just let us know.

7. Third-Party Links

Our site links out (e.g., blog posts). Those sites have their own rules—we’re not responsible for their data games.

8. Kids’ Privacy

Our services aren’t for under-13s. If we accidentally grab a kid’s data, we’ll delete it faster than you can say “404.”

9. Changes to This Policy

We might debug this policy as laws or tech shift. Check the “Last Updated” date above—your continued use means you’re cool with updates.
