Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 26, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Velox ("Velox," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use our website at runvelox.com or purchase our services.
1. Information We Collect
Information you provide:
- Name, email address, company name, and phone number when you contact us, sign up, or pay for a service
- Billing information (handled by Stripe — we do not store full payment card numbers)
- Business information you share during engagements (goals, current systems, brand assets, credentials needed for delivery)
- Communications you send us via email, chat, or contact forms
Information collected automatically:
- Standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited) for site security and basic analytics
- Cookies for authentication, session management, and analytics (lightweight, no third-party tracking)
- Aggregated visit statistics via Plausible Analytics (privacy-first, no personal data)
2. How We Use Information
- Deliver and improve the services you've purchased
- Process payments and send receipts/invoices (via Stripe)
- Communicate with you about your account, services, and engagement
- Send transactional emails (welcome, kickoff, status updates) — not marketing without explicit opt-in
- Monitor and improve site performance and security
- Comply with legal obligations
3. Third-Party Services We Use
Velox uses the following processors to deliver services. Each has its own privacy policy:
4. How We Protect Information
- HTTPS encryption on all client-facing surfaces
- Database access limited to authorized personnel only, secured via Row Level Security and least-privilege access
- Payment data handled exclusively by Stripe — Velox never sees full card numbers
- Credentials and secrets stored in encrypted secret managers, never in source code or unencrypted files
- Regular review of access permissions and security configurations
No system is perfectly secure. Velox cannot guarantee absolute security but takes reasonable measures appropriate to a small consultancy.
5. Data Sharing
Velox does not sell your information. We share information only:
- With service providers (listed in Section 3) as required to deliver services
- With your explicit consent (e.g., introducing you to a vendor or partner)
- To comply with legal obligations, valid subpoenas, or court orders
- To protect Velox's rights or prevent fraud
6. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. After termination, we retain billing records for at least 7 years for tax and legal compliance, and other client data for up to 24 months unless you request earlier deletion. Aggregated, anonymized analytics may be retained indefinitely.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your information (subject to legal retention requirements)
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Receive your information in a portable format
- Opt out of marketing communications (Velox does not send unsolicited marketing by default)
To exercise these rights, email trey@runvelox.com. We respond within 30 days.
8. Children's Privacy
Velox services are not directed to anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If we learn we have collected such information, we will delete it.
9. International Users
Velox is based in the United States. By using our services, you consent to having your information processed in the U.S. We do not specifically target users in regions with stricter data laws (e.g., EU/UK GDPR). If you are in such a region and use our services, you do so at your discretion and are responsible for any local compliance obligations on your side.
10. Cookies
We use minimal cookies — primarily for authentication and basic site functionality. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or remarketing trackers. You can disable cookies in your browser; some features may not work properly without them.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our services evolve. Material changes will be communicated via email or a prominent notice on the site at least 14 days before taking effect.

Note: This Privacy Policy reflects standard practices for a small AI/automation consulting firm. If your engagement involves regulated data (HIPAA, financial, government), we'll execute a separate Data Processing Agreement (DPA) tailored to those obligations.
