Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Standard Operations Group ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit www.standardoperationsgroup.net (the "Site") or engage our services. We are a local, Woodbridge-based business, and we treat your information the way we'd want our own treated — with care and common sense.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

• Information you provide: name, business name, email address, phone number, and any details you share when you contact us, book a call, or fill out a form on our Site.
• Information collected automatically: basic technical data such as your browser type, device, approximate location, and pages visited, collected through cookies and similar technologies.
• Information from our tools: when you interact with features on our Site (such as a readiness quiz or calculator), we may receive the inputs you provide so we can follow up with relevant information.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Respond to your inquiries and schedule consultations.
• Provide, improve, and personalize our services and Site content.
• Send you information you've requested, such as an audit breakdown or follow-up resources.
• Communicate with you about your engagement, if you become a client.
• Understand how visitors use our Site so we can improve it.
• Comply with applicable legal obligations and protect our rights.

3. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:

• Service providers: trusted third-party tools that help us operate our Site and deliver services (such as scheduling, communication, and analytics tools), under their own privacy obligations.
• Legal compliance: when required by law, court order, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.
• Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our business, subject to confidentiality protections.

4. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Site working properly and to understand how it's used. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but disabling them may affect some features of the Site.

5. Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purposes described in this policy, to comply with legal obligations, or to protect our rights. When it's no longer needed, we delete it or de-identify it.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information using appropriate technical and organizational measures. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, update, or request deletion of your personal information, or to opt out of certain marketing communications. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the information below.

8. Third-Party Links

Our Site may contain links to third-party websites that we do not control. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.
