Privacy Policy

This policy covers growthmodetech.com, operated by Growth Mode Technologies LLC. Services we provide under an agreement are also governed by that agreement and our Terms of Service.

When you send an inquiry through a form on this site (the contact, homepage, go-live readiness, partner and ad landing page forms), we store what you enter: your name, email, message and, if you add them, your organization and phone number, plus any services and the time zone you selected. We also store which form you used, the page you sent it from, and how you arrived during that visit: the landing page, the referring website (address without query details), any campaign tags in the link you followed (such as utm_source) and, for visits from a Facebook or Instagram ad, the click identifier Meta adds to the link (fbclid).

We use this to review your inquiry and contact you. A notification with your inquiry is emailed to our sales team through our email delivery provider. Inquiries are stored with our website hosting and database providers. We do not send you an automatic confirmation email, and we do not sell your information.

This site does not send what you type into our forms to advertising platforms.

• Hosting. Our website platform (Lovable) and its infrastructure providers process standard request information, such as IP address, browser details and pages requested, to deliver and secure the site. The platform also adds scripts that collect visit statistics and page-performance measurements, such as pages viewed, referring site and device type.
• Phone link clicks. When you tap one of our phone numbers, we record that a phone link was clicked and on which page. No form details are included. A short-lived cookie (about one hour) limits how often these records can be created from one browser.
• Visit source. Your browser keeps your landing page, referrer and campaign tags (including an ad click identifier, if present) in session storage for the current visit, so they can be attached to an inquiry if you send one.
• Fonts and region. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address and browser details. To decide whether advertising measurement and GMT Pulse analytics may run, your browser asks our hosting network for your approximate country; we don't store that answer. This check is separate from the location GMT Pulse records when it runs, described below.

GMT Pulse is Growth Mode Technologies’ own analytics tool. We run it to understand which pages are useful, how visitors move through the site, and to show current site activity on a display in our office. It is separate from the Meta Pixel described below: GMT Pulse data goes to our own analytics service, not to Meta or any advertising network, and we don’t sell it.

When it runs, GMT Pulse records:

• the pages you open, including any campaign tags in the page address, and the referring site and screen width at the start of a visit;
• how far down a page you scroll (25%, 50%, 75%, 90% and 100%) and a periodic signal while the page is open, so we can estimate time on page and see which page is currently being viewed;
• clicks on links and buttons, identified only by a fixed element name, the website a link leads to, or the fact that an email or phone link was clicked;
• your public IP address, which our analytics service receives with each request and stores with your visit;
• an approximate city and region, looked up from your IP address. This location is an estimate and is often wrong: it may show your internet provider’s or network’s location rather than yours;
• when the lookup is available, the name of the network or internet provider (ISP) associated with your IP address.

IP lookup provider. To find the approximate city, region and network, our analytics service may send your IP address to Shifter IP Info, a third-party IP intelligence provider, when that service is available. Shifter IP Info receives the IP address only to return this approximate network and location information. When the lookup isn’t available, GMT Pulse uses only the country reported by our hosting network.

GMT Pulse never reads form fields, what you type, or the text on the page, and it doesn’t receive your inquiry details.

Returning visits. GMT Pulse stores a random, pseudonymous visitor ID in your browser’s local storage so we can tell when the same browser returns. It contains no name or contact details, and it is specific to this website, so it isn’t shared with our other brands’ sites. A separate session ID resets after 30 minutes without activity. The visitor ID stays in this browser until you turn measurement off below or clear your browser storage; turning it off deletes both IDs.

Page request records from our network edge. In addition to the browser script, the network that delivers this site (Cloudflare) may send GMT Pulse a short record each time a page of this site is successfully delivered. That record contains only: the public IP address the request came from, the network or internet provider (ISP and network number, ASN) associated with it, an approximate location, the page path (without anything after a “?” in the address), the time and the response status. It does not include the full page address, campaign tags, the referring site, cookies other than the opt-out cookie described below, or anything entered in our forms.

Page requests vs. browser visits. A page request record only shows that someone or something asked our site for a page. It may come from a person, but also from a search engine, a link preview, a security scanner or a browser loading a page in advance, and it doesn’t show whether anyone looked at the page. A browser visit record from the GMT Pulse script shows that a real browser had the page open and records activity such as scrolling, clicks and moving between pages. We label the two differently in our analytics.

An IP address is not your identity. We do not use an IP address to identify you personally. One address is often shared by many people, for example everyone in an office or on the same mobile network, and the same person can appear from different addresses.

Office display. We show live and recent activity, such as pages being viewed, page requests, returning visits, public IP addresses and approximate city and region, on a display that is physically visible in our office. The display is reached through a link that requires authentication, it is intended only for authorized Growth Mode employees, and it is not shown to the general public.

IP address retention. GMT Pulse keeps public IP addresses, from both browser visits and page request records, for up to 30 days. They may be deleted sooner, and none are collected after you turn measurement off.

The GMT Pulse script and page request records follow the same rules as the Meta Pixel: neither covers visitors in the EU, EEA, UK or Switzerland, or when we can’t determine your region; neither applies when your browser sends a Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal, or after you turn measurement off below. The script also doesn’t run on our preview or test addresses. When these rules apply, GMT Pulse collects nothing about your visit, including your IP address.

We use the Meta Pixel from Meta Platforms, Inc. (Facebook and Instagram) to measure how our ads perform and to help Meta show our ads to people more likely to be interested. The same pixel is used on websites of our related brands, so Meta may combine this activity with visits to those sites.

When it runs, Meta receives:

• a page view for each page you open;
• a “Lead” event when one of our inquiry forms is successfully saved, labelled only with the type of form and the page path, never what you typed;
• information Meta’s script collects itself, such as your IP address, browser and device details, the page address and referrer, and Meta cookies (such as _fbp).

Meta may also use its own matching features to connect this activity to a Meta account. Meta handles this data under its own privacy policy.

The Meta Pixel does not run for visitors in the EU, EEA, UK or Switzerland, or when we can’t determine your region. It stays off if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, or if you turn it off below. It does not run on our preview or test addresses.

We keep inquiries as long as needed to respond, maintain our business records and meet legal obligations, and analytics records as long as needed to understand how the site is used. Public IP addresses collected by GMT Pulse are kept for up to 30 days, as described above. Access to inquiry records is restricted to authorized Growth Mode staff and the service providers that run our systems. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

This site is intended for businesses and is not directed to children under 13.
