Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 22, 2026
DetroitWeb.net ("DetroitWeb.net," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit detroitweb.net (the "Site"), how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
1. Who we are
DetroitWeb.net is a web development and digital services business based in Detroit, Michigan, United States. You can reach us at contact@detroitweb.net.
2. Information we collect
Information you give us
Contact form and scheduling submissions. When you complete a form on the Site (for example, on our Schedule or Contact pages), we collect the information you provide — typically your name, email address, company (optional), and the contents of your message.
Newsletter signups. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address and, optionally, your name.
Email and other correspondence. If you contact us directly, we keep a record of that correspondence.
Information we collect automatically
Log and device data. Like most websites, our servers automatically log information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, and the date and time of your visit.
Cookies and similar technologies. We and our third-party providers use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to operate the Site, measure usage, and (where applicable) deliver advertising. See Section 6 for details and your choices.
3. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
Respond to inquiries, schedule consultations, and provide our services;
Send newsletters and marketing emails that you have signed up to receive;
Operate, maintain, and improve the Site and our services;
Understand how visitors find and use the Site through analytics;
Measure and improve the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns;
Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or security issues;
Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.
4. Legal bases for processing (visitors in the EEA/UK)
If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we process your personal data on the following legal bases:
Consent — for newsletter subscriptions and non-essential cookies (analytics, advertising).
Performance of a contract — to respond to your inquiries and deliver services you request.
Legitimate interests — to operate and secure the Site and improve our services, balanced against your rights.
Legal obligation — when we must retain or disclose information by law.
5. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only as described below:
Service providers. We use trusted third parties to operate the Site and our business — for example, our website host, email delivery providers, customer-relationship tools, analytics providers, and advertising platforms. They are permitted to access your information only to perform services for us and are required to protect it.
Legal and safety reasons. We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
Business transfers. If DetroitWeb.net is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
6. Cookies, analytics, and advertising
We use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:
Strictly necessary. Required for the Site to function — for example, to submit a form or remember your cookie preferences.
Analytics. Help us understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it (for example, Google Analytics or Plausible). These collect information such as pages viewed, time on page, and approximate location based on IP address.
Advertising and marketing. Used by us and our advertising partners (which may include Google, Meta, and LinkedIn) to measure campaign performance and show you relevant ads on other sites.
You can control cookies through:
Our cookie banner (where shown) — accept, reject, or customize categories;
Your browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies;
Industry opt-outs — the DAA, NAI, and EDAA offer tools to opt out of interest-based advertising;
Google Analytics opt-out — available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
We honor browser-level "Global Privacy Control" (GPC) signals where required by law and treat them as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for targeted advertising.
7. Marketing emails and newsletters
We send newsletters and marketing emails only to people who have asked to receive them. Every marketing email we send includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time by clicking it or by emailing contact@detroitweb.net. We will still send you transactional messages — for example, replies to your inquiry or service-related notices — even after you unsubscribe from marketing.
8. Data retention
We keep personal information only for as long as we need it for the purposes described in this Policy, to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. Contact-form submissions are typically retained for up to 24 months after our last interaction with you, and newsletter records are kept for as long as you remain subscribed.
9. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information — including HTTPS encryption for the Site, access controls for our systems, and vendor due diligence. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10. Your privacy rights
U.S. residents (including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Virginia, and others)
Depending on your state, you may have the right to:
Know what personal information we collect about you and how we use it;
Access a copy of that information;
Request correction of inaccurate information;
Request deletion of your information;
Opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for targeted advertising;
Be free from discrimination for exercising your rights.
California residents: We do not sell personal information for money. To the extent that any of our advertising cookies constitute "sharing" under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), you can opt out using our cookie banner, by enabling a GPC signal in your browser, or by emailing us.
EEA, UK, and Swiss residents
You have the right to:
Access, correct, update, or delete your personal data;
Object to or restrict processing;
Withdraw consent (where processing is based on consent);
Data portability;
Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
How to exercise your rights
Email us at contact@detroitweb.net with the details of your request. We may need to verify your identity before responding. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights. You may also designate an authorized agent to act on your behalf where state law permits.
11. International transfers
We are based in the United States. If you access the Site from outside the U.S., the information we collect may be transferred to and processed in the U.S. or other countries, which may have data-protection laws different from those in your country. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) for international transfers.
12. Children's privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please email us and we will delete it.
13. Third-party links
The Site may link to third-party websites or services that we do not control. This Policy does not apply to those sites, and we encourage you to read their privacy policies.
14. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, for material changes, provide a more prominent notice (such as a banner on the Site or an email to subscribers). Your continued use of the Site after the changes take effect means you accept the updated Policy.
