Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 28, 2026

Apex Locals respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you request a free ad review, contact us, submit a lead form, or use our services.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information you choose to provide, including your name, email address, phone number, business name, business category, service area, Facebook or Instagram page, project details, and messages submitted through forms.

When you request a free ad review, the form may collect business information needed to review your offer, service area, current ad activity, lead form needs, tracking setup, or follow-up process.

2. Information Collected Automatically

We may collect basic technical information when you visit this site, such as IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referral source, time on site, and general location data. This helps us understand page performance and improve the user experience.

3. How We Use Information

We use information to provide free ad reviews, respond to inquiries, send requested information, deliver services, prepare proposals, improve campaign performance, manage client relationships, and follow up with businesses that request support.

We may also use information to understand which pages, QR codes, ads, or campaigns are generating interest so we can improve our marketing and service experience.

4. Free Reviews, Lead Forms, and Third-Party Tools

Our site may include Meta lead forms, embedded forms, analytics tools, or automation tools. These providers may collect and process information you submit in order to send lead details, store request information, or send data into systems such as Google Sheets, a CRM, or email tools.

Third-party tools are governed by their own privacy policies and terms. Apex Locals is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party platforms.

5. Google Sheets, CRM, and Lead Records

When you submit a free ad review request, lead form, contact form, or service inquiry, your information may be stored in business tools such as Google Sheets, a CRM, email inboxes, scheduling tools, or project management systems. We use these tools to organize leads, follow up, and provide services.

6. Email and Follow-Up

If you request a review, contact Apex Locals, or submit your information through a form, we may contact you about your review, your inquiry, or relevant services. You can ask us to stop contacting you at any time.

We do not send unnecessary spam. Our goal is to follow up only when it relates to your ad review, your business request, or services you asked about.

7. Cookies and Analytics

We may use cookies, pixels, analytics tools, or similar technologies to understand how visitors use the site, measure QR code traffic, track page performance, and improve the experience. You can usually adjust cookie settings through your browser.

8. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers that help us operate forms, send emails, manage leads, process payments, provide analytics, or deliver client services.

We may also share information if required by law, to protect our business, to prevent fraud or abuse, or as part of a business transfer such as a merger, sale, or reorganization.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable safeguards to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. No email system, form, or online platform can guarantee perfect security, so please avoid sending sensitive information unless necessary.

10. Data Retention

We keep information as long as needed to provide services, manage leads, maintain business records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and improve our operations. You may ask us to delete your information, and we will respond when legally and practically possible.

11. Your Choices

You may request access, correction, deletion, or removal from follow-up communications by contacting Apex Locals. Some records may need to be kept for business, legal, security, or accounting reasons.

12. Children’s Privacy

Our site and services are intended for business owners and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

13. Links to Other Platforms

Our site may link to third-party tools, platforms, or embedded services. We are not responsible for the content, security, or privacy practices of those third-party platforms.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Continued use of the site after updates means you accept the revised policy.
