Last updated: June 14, 2026
GMB Services ("we," "us," or "our") operates this website and provides marketing consultancy services to service-based businesses. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect information about you when you visit our website, contact us, or engage our services. We respect your privacy and are committed to handling your personal information responsibly and in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
1. Who We Are
GMB Services is a marketing consultancy located at 123 Market Street, Suite 400, San Francisco, CA 94103. You can reach us by email at hello@gmbservices.com or by phone at (415) 555-0100. We are the data controller for the personal information described in this Policy.
2. Information We Collect
We collect personal information in the following ways:
- Information you provide directly: Your name, email address, phone number, business name, role, and any details you share when you book a consultation, send us an email, or fill out a form on our site.
- Information collected automatically: Basic device and browsing information such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs. We collect this through standard server logs and limited first-party analytics.
- Information from third-party tools: When you schedule a meeting through our embedded booking tool, that provider collects information necessary to create the appointment and shares it with us.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to inquiries and schedule consultations.
- Provide, deliver, and improve our consultancy services.
- Send service-related communications, such as engagement updates, invoices, and follow-up notes.
- Understand how visitors use our site so we can improve performance and usability.
- Comply with legal obligations, enforce our agreements, and protect against fraud or misuse.
4. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with a small number of trusted service providers who help us run our business, such as our email and calendar provider, our scheduling tool, our invoicing platform, and our website host. Each provider is contractually required to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we authorize. We may also disclose information when required by law, in response to lawful requests from public authorities, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.
5. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide our services, respond to inquiries, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it. Engagement records and invoices may be retained for up to seven years to meet tax and accounting requirements.
6. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, object to or restrict certain processing, and request a copy of your information in a portable format. California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, including the right to know what categories of information we collect and the right to opt out of sale (we do not sell personal information). To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@gmbservices.com. We will respond within the time period required by applicable law.
7. Cookies and Tracking
Our website uses a minimal set of cookies and similar technologies to support core site functionality and basic analytics. You can disable cookies through your browser settings; some site features may not work as expected if you do. We do not use advertising cookies or share information with advertising networks.
8. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information against loss, theft, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. International Visitors
We operate from the United States. If you access our site or services from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, which may have data protection laws that differ from those in your country.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify you by email or through a notice on our site. Continued use of our site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
