Introduction
Kingmaker Analytics LLC ("Kingmaker," "we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit kingmakeranalytics.com (the "Website") or engage with us through our consulting, design, and technology services (the "Services"). For privacy inquiries, contact us at isaiah.stephenson@kingmakeranalytics.com.
We operate exclusively within the United States and comply with applicable U.S. federal and state privacy laws. Kingmaker provides consulting and development services for business clients, which may include design revisions, marketing strategy, and technology or application development.
International Visitors: This Website and our Services are intended for users located in the United States. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, Switzerland, or other jurisdictions with data protection laws that may differ from U.S. law, please be aware that by using this Website, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States. If you do not agree to this transfer, please do not use this Website.
We collect only minimal personal information through our Website, such as name, email address, and company name, primarily for communication, newsletter, and service inquiry purposes. Website data is securely stored using Supabase (PostgreSQL) for permanent lead storage and Upstash Redis for temporary data such as download tokens and rate limiting. Client project data may be stored separately in secure cloud environments as needed for service delivery.
By accessing or using the Website or Services, you agree to this Privacy Policy. We may update this Policy from time to time, and continued use of the Website or Services after updates constitutes acceptance of those changes.

- Business Information: If you are a client, we may collect company-related details necessary to deliver our Services, such as business requirements, project specifications, or billing information.
- Website Usage Data: Non-identifiable information about your interaction with our Website, such as page visits, traffic sources, browser type, and device information. This is collected through Google Analytics 4 via Google Tag Manager.
- Chatbot Interactions: When you interact with our website chatbot, we may collect your messages, conversation history, and IP address for the purpose of providing responses and improving service quality. This data is temporarily stored and may be used to enhance the chatbot experience.

We do not collect sensitive personal data such as tax identification numbers, financial account details, health information, or educational records.

We collect information in the following ways:
- Directly from You: When you fill out a form, download free resources, subscribe to a newsletter, interact with our chatbot, or contact us via email or other communication methods.

- Through Client Engagements: When you engage us for consulting or technical services, in which case we collect information relevant to fulfilling that contract.
- Through Email Communications: When we send you transactional emails (e.g., download links) or automated follow-up emails via our email service provider, we may track email delivery and engagement metrics.
Cookies and Analytics
Our Website uses cookies and analytics tools to improve functionality and user experience. We use the following types of cookies:
- Essential Cookies: Required for the Website to function properly, including session management, form submissions, and security features. These cookies cannot be disabled.

You can manage cookie preferences through the cookie consent banner that appears on your first visit. You can also disable cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may affect certain Website features. We do not use cookies for advertising or behavioral tracking purposes.
Our chatbot may use temporary session data stored in your browser to maintain conversation context. This data is automatically cleared when you close your browser or after a period of inactivity.

Data Security and Storage
All personal and client data is stored in secure, cloud-based environments with industry-standard security measures:
- Supabase (PostgreSQL): Used for permanent lead storage. Supabase employs encryption at rest, secure connections (SSL/TLS), and follows SOC 2 Type II compliance standards.
- Upstash Redis: Used for temporary data storage including download tokens, rate limiting data, and chatbot conversation history. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with automatic expiration of temporary data.

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. While no system is entirely immune to risk, we maintain commercially reasonable protections aligned with industry best practices.
Client project data may be stored separately in secure cloud environments (which may include Microsoft 365/Azure or other platforms) as needed for service delivery, subject to separate confidentiality agreements.
Client Confidentiality
Information shared by clients during consulting engagements is treated as confidential. We do not disclose client data, business metrics, or project details to third parties without explicit consent, except as required by law or as necessary to provide our services (e.g., with subprocessors under appropriate confidentiality terms). For enterprise clients requiring formal data protection terms, we can provide a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) upon request.
If we provide you with login credentials for any portal or system, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of those credentials.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy or as required by applicable law. Specific retention periods include:
- Lead Information: Retained for up to 7 years for business relationship management and legal compliance purposes, unless you request deletion earlier. We periodically review and delete data that is no longer needed.
- Download Tokens: Stored in Upstash Redis for 30 days, after which they automatically expire and are deleted.
- Rate Limiting Data: Stored temporarily in Upstash Redis with short expiration periods (1 minute to 24 hours) and automatically deleted.

- Analytics Data: Aggregated, non-identifiable usage statistics are retained indefinitely for business analysis purposes.
- Email Records: Email delivery logs and engagement data are retained by our email service provider according to their retention policies (typically 30-90 days).
- Email Sequences: Scheduled follow-up emails are stored in our database until sent or until you unsubscribe. When you unsubscribe, pending emails are cancelled immediately.
When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymized. You may request deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting us at isaiah.stephenson@kingmakeranalytics.com.
Children's Privacy
Our Website and Services are not directed toward children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at isaiah.stephenson@kingmakeranalytics.com so we can delete it.
Chatbot and AI Services
Our Website includes an AI-powered chatbot that uses third-party AI services (OpenAI or Anthropic) to generate responses. When you interact with the chatbot:
- Your messages are sent to the AI service provider to generate responses.
- Conversation history may be temporarily stored to maintain context during your session.
- We implement rate limiting and security measures to prevent abuse.
- After 10 interactions per day, you may be required to complete a CAPTCHA verification (via hCaptcha) to continue using the chatbot.

AI service providers (OpenAI and Anthropic) have their own privacy policies governing how they process data. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies if you have concerns about how your messages are handled.
Important: Please do not share sensitive personal information (such as Social Security numbers, financial account details, health information, or passwords) in chatbot conversations. The chatbot is not designed to handle sensitive data, and we cannot guarantee the security of such information shared through this channel.
