Legal
What we collect, why we collect it, who else sees it, and how to get it back or have it deleted. No dark patterns, no buried clauses.
AmpLocal, LLC (“AmpLocal”, “we”, “us”) is a marketing agency based in Ashland, Oregon. This policy explains what personal information we collect when you use amplocal.io or work with us, why we collect it, who we share it with, and what you can ask us to do about it. By using our website or our services, you agree to what is described here.
When you fill in a form, book a call, subscribe, or become a client, we collect what you choose to give us — typically your name, email address, phone number, company name, and billing details. We only ever collect this because you handed it to us. We do not buy contact lists.
We collect non-identifying information about how our site is used: IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring URL, the pages you viewed, and when you viewed them. This tells us which articles are worth writing more of. It is not used to build a profile of you as an individual.
We use cookies to keep the site working and to measure traffic in aggregate. You can refuse or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. Blocking them will not lock you out of the site, though some conveniences may stop working.
We do not knowingly collect sensitive categories of personal data — health, biometrics, precise geolocation, racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, or the personal data of children. If you send us any of it unprompted, please do not.
To deliver the work you have asked for, to talk to you about it, to invoice and take payment, and to provide support. We may also send you marketing about our services. Every marketing message carries a one-click unsubscribe, and using it never affects the service you are paying for.
To understand traffic patterns, keep the site running, fix what is broken, and improve what we publish. This analysis happens in aggregate.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not rent or trade it. We do not use client data to train third-party AI models. If that ever changes, we will say so here before it does, not after.
We use industry-standard measures to guard against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure and destruction — encryption in transit, access limited to staff who need it, and reputable vendors for anything we do not host ourselves.
We will not pretend this is absolute. No transmission over the internet and no storage system is completely secure. We work hard to protect what you give us, but we cannot guarantee it, and you should not treat any online form as a vault for genuinely sensitive material.
We keep personal information only as long as it is doing a job. In practice that means:
Where we are required by law to hold something longer, we hold it longer, and only for that reason.
Wherever you live, you can ask us to do any of the following with your personal information:
Email info@amplocal.io and we will respond within 45 days. We do not charge for this, and we will not make you jump through hoops or sit through a retention pitch to get it done. If we refuse a request, we will tell you why and how to appeal it.
To stop text messages, reply STOP to any message from us. To stop marketing email, use the unsubscribe link in the footer of any message.
Our site and our articles link out to other websites. We do not control them and we are not responsible for what they do with your information. Read their privacy policies before handing anything over.
Our services are meant for people aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has given us information without a parent's consent, contact us and we will remove it promptly.
We operate in the United States and our vendors are largely US-based. If you are outside the US, any information you give us is transferred to and processed in the United States, where privacy law differs from your own. By using the site and giving us your information, you consent to that transfer.
We may update this policy. When we make a material change, we will post the revised version here with a new date at the top, and where the change is significant we will email contacts on record rather than rely on you noticing. Continuing to use our website or services after a change means you accept the updated policy.
