Privacy Policy

Overview

ZacWine.com is operated by Zac Wine, an independent website and marketing consultant based in Boston, MA. This policy explains what information the site receives, why I use it, the outside services involved, and how to contact me about your information.

Information I receive

Contact and project forms

When you send a contact or project-intake form, I receive the information you enter, such as your name, email address, website URL, and the project details or message you provide. A submission may also include basic source information from the page or URL, such as the landing-page path, referral source, or UTM campaign parameters. I use this information to respond to you, understand the inquiry, and provide requested services. The site also stores submitted contact and project-form information in a database so I can keep and manage inquiry records. Contact-form email notifications are delivered through Resend.

Analytics

This site uses Google Analytics 4 when analytics is enabled. Google Analytics may receive information about how your browser interacts with the site, including pages viewed, referral information, browser and device details, approximate location, session information, and interaction events. Google may use cookies or similar identifiers as part of that measurement. I use analytics to understand how people find and use the site and to improve the site and its marketing.

If you do not want Google Analytics to measure your visits, Google provides the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cookies and measurement

Google Analytics may use first-party cookies or similar identifiers to distinguish browsers and sessions and measure site activity. Information handled by Google is also subject to Google's own privacy practices and account settings.

Data security

I use reasonable measures intended to protect information sent through the site, including HTTPS for site traffic. No method of transmission or storage on the internet can guarantee complete security.

Follow-up communications

If you contact me or send project details, I may follow up by email about your inquiry or related services. Those submissions do not automatically add you to a promotional newsletter. You can ask me to stop follow-up emails at any time by replying to a message or contacting me directly.

Third-party services

The site currently relies on these outside services:

• Resend – Delivers contact and project-form email notifications
• Neon – Stores contact and project-form submissions in the site's database
• Google Analytics 4 – Provides website usage analytics when enabled
• Cal.com – Handles appointment scheduling when you choose to book a call
• Replit – Hosts this website

These services handle information under their own privacy policies and settings. Information you enter directly into Cal.com is handled by Cal.com rather than by the forms on ZacWine.com.

How long information is kept

I may keep inquiry and business records as needed to respond, provide services, maintain business records, or meet legal obligations. I do not publish a fixed retention period for contact submissions. Third-party services manage retention under their own settings and policies.

Your choices and requests

You can ask me to provide, correct, or delete personal information I hold about you. Whether a specific legal privacy right applies can depend on where you live. To make a request, contact me using the information below.

Changes to this policy

I may update this policy as the site or the services it uses change. The revision date at the top of the page will be updated when that happens.
