Effective Date: July 24, 2025

Pretial Caston ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect the information we gather from you through our website (pretialcaston.com) and in connection with our consulting services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information that you directly provide to us when you interact with our website or engage with our services. This may include:

Contact Information: Such as your name, email address, phone number, and mailing address, which you may provide when filling out forms, inquiring about services, or signing up for our newsletter/blog.

Business Information: Details about your business, its needs, and operational context, which you provide during consultations, assessments, or while engaging in our services. This includes information necessary for us to understand your procurement and contract management challenges and to provide tailored advice.

Payment Information: When you make payments for our services (e.g., initial consultations, retainer fees), we collect transaction details. Please note that payment processing is handled by third-party platforms (such as PayPal, as mentioned in your provided information), and we do not directly store your full payment card details.

2. How We Use Your Information

The information we collect is used exclusively for the following purposes:

To Provide Services: Your client information is used solely to deliver the consulting services you request from Pretial Caston. This includes understanding your specific needs, developing strategies, providing training, and fulfilling our contractual obligations to you.

To Communicate with You: We use your contact information to respond to your inquiries, provide updates regarding our services, and to contact individuals who have signed up for our newsletter or blog.

For Internal Business Operations: This includes managing client relationships, scheduling appointments, invoicing, and maintaining records essential for the operation of Pretial Castal. According to our company’s terms, information for business use is intended for the exclusive use of the business owner.

Your information is not shared with anyone or used for any purpose other than the two mentioned above (providing services and contacting newsletter/blog subscribers).

3. How We Store and Protect Your Information

We are committed to ensuring your information is secure.

Data Storage: Your information is stored on platforms powered by third-party service providers, including GoDaddy, Google Services, and PayPal. These platforms employ robust security measures.

Security Measures: We utilize the same methods used to protect your own data to secure the information we collect. We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

Data Export (Limited Circumstances): While the export of customer information is generally avoided, it is possible for business use. However, customer information will not be exported without prior notification of the specific need (e.g., for customer relationship management or service delivery matters) and only with the customer's explicit consent.

4. Third-Party Services

As mentioned, we utilize third-party platforms for various functions:

Website Hosting: GoDaddy powers our website, and their privacy practices govern data handled by their platform.

Google Services: We may use Google services (e.g., Google Analytics, Google Workspace) which collect and process data according to Google's privacy policies.

Payment Processing: PayPal handles payment transactions. Your payment information is subject to PayPal's privacy policy and terms of service.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third-party providers to understand their data handling practices.

You have certain rights regarding your personal information, subject to applicable law:

Access and Correction: You may request access to the personal information we hold about you and request corrections to any inaccuracies.

Opt-Out: You can opt-out of receiving marketing communications from us (e.g., newsletters or blog updates) by following the unsubscribe instructions included in those communications or by contacting us directly.

Deletion: You may request the deletion of your personal information, subject to our legal and contractual obligations to retain certain records.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information provided in the "Contact Us" section below.
