About us
We specialize in creating, connecting, and amplifying brands through digital marketing, media, and growth solutions. We combine strategy, creative, development, and media to build effective marketing ecosystems. This means that we help our clients address their marketing challenges, create their marketing approach, and connect our clients with our media partners to drive client growth.
With respect to Personal Information governed by this Policy, we may collect and use business Personal Information from our clients to provide them with our services. We may also obtain Personal Information from or about users of our Website or individuals that engage with our direct sales, marketing, or event services. As an integrated marketing agency, we use third-party platforms and advertising technology solutions to help deliver services such as analytics, media placement, attribution, CRM execution, and marketing automation. Therefore, while we facilitate client connections with our advertising publisher, networks, or platform partners, we do not collect Personal Information from or about individuals that may engage with our clients’ advertising campaign. Information we receive from such partners, if any, is shared in aggregate or de-identified form, and we do not attempt to reidentify the information. Accordingly, such information is not considered Personal Information and is, therefore, not governed by this Policy.

In Short: We may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.
With your consent if required, we may automatically receive and store certain types of Personal Information whenever you access, interact with, or use our Services. For example, we may use “cookies” and “web beacons” (also called “clear gifs” or “pixel tags”) to obtain certain information when you use or access our Services. We may use information collected via these technologies to:
- Estimate our audience size and usage patterns.
- Store your preferences, so that we may customize our Services according to your individual interests.

We may also use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services.
Cookies are small files that we may transfer to your Equipment’s hard drive or to your web browser’s memory to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide convenience and other features to you. We may also use cookies to provide additional features or functionality to your experience when you use our Services, for example, storing your preferences and other information about you when you use the Website. You may block or limit the storage of cookies via browser controls or other software. You may also delete cookies manually from your device through your internet browser, operating system, or other programs you use to access the Services. Please note that some portions of our Services may not function properly or be available if you block or delete certain cookies.
Web beacons (also known as web bugs, clear GIFs, or pixel tags) are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and may be used to track the online movements of users, when an email has been opened, or to provide other information.
Note: As an integrated marketing agency, we use third-party platforms and advertising technology solutions to help deliver client services such as analytics, media placement, attribution, CRM execution, and marketing automation. In most cases, data collected or processed through these platforms is used for campaign execution, performance measurement, or audience targeting within those platforms. We do not resell or exchange Personal Information for monetary value. If Personal Information is provided to or processed by third-party platforms, it is typically processed on our behalf or on behalf of our clients to perform contracted marketing services rather than for sale or unrelated use.
We do, however, use advertising, analytics, or audience measurement tools or other platforms that support targeted advertising or cross-contextual audience delivery for client campaigns.
Opt-Out/Revoke Consent: To the extent any of these automated technologies are considered a Personal Information sale, targeted advertising, or profiling, under applicable laws, depending on in which U.S. state you are a resident, you may opt out from use of these automated technologies for such uses as described in Your Rights and Choices below. You may also revoke your consent to use such technologies at any time. Please note that some Service features may be unavailable as a result.
Additionally, when you interact with the Services, there are third parties that may use automatic collection technologies to collect information about you or your Equipment. These third parties may include advertisers, ad networks, and ad servers, analytics companies, your Equipment manufacturer, your internet or mobile service providers, etc. These third parties may use tracking technologies to collect information about you when you use the Services. The information they collect may be associated with your Personal Information or they may collect information, including Personal Information, about your online activities over time and across different websites, apps, platforms, and other online services. They may use this information to provide you with interest-based (behavioral) advertising or other targeted content.
We do not control these third parties’ tracking technologies or how they may be used. If you have any questions about an advertisement or other targeted content, you should contact the provider responsible directly.
You can refuse certain cookies through the cookie banner presented on your first visit, or change your choice at any time using the Cookie settings link in the site footer.
5. How long do we keep your information?
In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice unless otherwise permitted or required by law.
We will only keep your Personal Information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes for which we collect it, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements). When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your Personal Information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your Personal Information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
6. How do we keep your information safe?
In Short: We aim to protect your Personal Information through a system of organizational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any Personal Information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your Personal Information, transmission of Personal Information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.
7. Do we collect information from minors?
