Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 22, 2026

At The Web Tech Shop (thewebtech.shop), we are committed to protecting your privacy and maintaining transparency regarding how your personal information is collected, used, stored, and protected. This Privacy Policy explains our information-handling practices when you visit our website, contact us, or use our services.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following categories of information:

Personal Information

Personal information is data that identifies or can reasonably be associated with you, including:

  • Name, email address, and phone number.
  • Billing, payment-related, and contact information.
  • Company name, business details, or website URL, where applicable.
  • Information you voluntarily submit through website forms, inquiries, or other communications.

Non-Personal Information

We may automatically collect certain technical and usage information, including:

  • IP address.
  • Browser type, operating system, and device information.
  • Pages visited and time spent on our website.
  • Date, time, and general patterns of website visits.
  • Referral sources and other website usage statistics.

2. How We Use Your Information

We may use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve our products and services.
  • Respond to inquiries and provide customer support.
  • Process requests, orders, and service-related communications.
  • Personalize and improve your website experience.
  • Send service updates, promotional communications, and marketing materials where permitted by law and, when required, with your consent.
  • Monitor website performance, analyze usage trends, and improve functionality.
  • Maintain website security, prevent fraud, and protect against unauthorized activity.
  • Comply with applicable legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations.

3. SMS Communications

If you provide your mobile phone number and expressly opt in to receive text messages, The Web Tech Shop may send SMS messages related to customer support, appointment reminders, account notifications, service updates, and promotional offers relating to our business services.

  • Message frequency: Message frequency may vary depending on your interactions and selected services.
  • Message and data rates: Standard message and data rates may apply according to your mobile carrier and service plan.
  • Opt-out: You may opt out of SMS communications at any time by replying STOP to a message.
  • Help: For assistance, reply HELP or contact us at info@thewebtech.shop.

Opting out of promotional text messages will not affect your ability to receive other communications necessary to provide services, where permitted by applicable law.

4. SMS Consent

SMS consent is collected through our website contact forms or other designated opt-in methods.

When you select the SMS consent checkbox before submitting a form, you expressly agree to receive text messages from The Web Tech Shop for the purposes described at the point of consent.

Your consent to receive SMS messages is voluntary and is not a condition of purchasing any products or services.

Where applicable, consent to receive marketing messages is separate from consent to receive transactional or service-related communications. You may withdraw your consent at any time by replying STOP.

5. Mobile Information Sharing

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

We may use service providers to facilitate SMS delivery and related operational functions, subject to appropriate confidentiality and data-protection obligations. Such arrangements do not authorize the sharing of SMS opt-in data or consent with third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We may use cookies and similar technologies to improve website functionality and understand how visitors interact with our website.

These technologies may help us:

  • Remember preferences and settings.
  • Improve website navigation and functionality.
  • Analyze website traffic and visitor behavior.
  • Identify technical issues and improve performance.

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of some website features.

7. Data Protection and Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, or destruction.

These measures may include secure data storage, restricted access, and appropriate security practices. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

8. Sharing of Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

We may disclose information in limited circumstances, including:

  • Service providers: To trusted providers that help us operate our website, communicate with customers, or deliver our services.
  • Legal obligations: When disclosure is required by applicable law, regulation, court order, or legal process.
  • Security and protection: When reasonably necessary to protect our rights, property, users, or public safety.
  • Business operations: Where necessary for legitimate business operations, subject to applicable legal requirements and appropriate safeguards.

We require service providers handling personal information on our behalf to maintain appropriate confidentiality and security protections.

Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are excluded from the sharing practices described above and will not be shared with third parties for marketing or promotional purposes.

9. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, services, or resources. These external websites operate independently and may have their own privacy policies and data-handling practices.

We are not responsible for the content, security, or privacy practices of third-party websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before submitting personal information.

  • Fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

If we become aware that personal information has been collected from a child in circumstances where such collection is not permitted, we will take reasonable steps to delete the information as appropriate.

13. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers provide a "Do Not Track" setting that communicates a preference regarding online tracking.

Our website may not currently respond to all Do Not Track signals. You can manage cookies and certain tracking preferences through your browser settings.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our business practices, website functionality, or applicable legal requirements.
