Privacy Policy

Last updated:

This Privacy Policy explains how Primarch SEO ("Primarch SEO," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects information in connection with our website at primarchseo.com, our SEO consulting and reporting services, and any software applications we provide (collectively, the "Services"). By using the Services, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Who we are

Primarch SEO is an independent SEO consultancy operated by Barry Boggs as a service-area business based in Canton, Michigan, United States. You can reach us at any time at barry@primarchseo.com or (734) 386-0257 regarding this policy or your data.

2. Information we collect

We collect only the information needed to provide and improve the Services:

3. Google user data and Google API Services

Some of our Services, including our SEO and listings management software, request access to Google account data — including data available through the Google Business Profile API and related Google APIs — only with your explicit authorization through Google's standard OAuth consent flow. This section describes how we handle that data.

What we access

With your authorization, we may access and manage information associated with the Google Business Profile and Google accounts you connect, such as business locations, listing details (name, address, phone, hours, categories, attributes, and website), posts, and customer reviews. We request only the scopes necessary to deliver the features you have asked us to provide.

How we use it

We use Google user data solely to provide and improve the user-facing features of the Services you authorize — for example, reading and updating your business listings, managing reviews, and generating SEO reporting. We do not use Google user data for advertising, and we do not use it to train generalized artificial intelligence or machine-learning models.

How we share it

We do not sell, rent, or transfer Google user data to third parties, except as necessary to provide a feature you requested, to comply with applicable law, or as part of a merger or acquisition in which the data remains subject to this policy. We do not share Google user data with third parties for their own purposes.

Limited Use disclosure

Primarch SEO's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Storage and retention of Google user data

We store authorization tokens and the minimum Google user data needed to operate the Services securely, and we retain it only as long as your account or engagement is active. You may revoke our access at any time through your Google account permissions or by contacting us, after which we delete the associated data within a reasonable period unless retention is required by law.

4. How we use information

5. Cookies and analytics

Our website may use essential cookies and standard analytics to understand how the site is used and to keep it functioning. Third-party tools we embed (such as the Calendly scheduling widget) may set their own cookies under their respective privacy policies. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

6. Service providers

We rely on a small number of trusted providers to operate the Services, including website hosting, scheduling (Calendly), and email. These providers process information only on our behalf and are bound to protect it. They are not permitted to use Google user data for their own purposes.

7. Data security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards — including encryption in transit and access controls — to protect the information in our care. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your data and to limit access to it.

8. Your rights and choices

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold about you, and you may revoke any access you have granted to your Google or business data at any time. To exercise these rights, email barry@primarchseo.com and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

9. Children's privacy

The Services are intended for businesses and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
