Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information RGV Websites collects through this website, why we use it, and the choices available to you.

Effective and last updated: September 3, 2026

Who we are

RGV Websites provides web design, local SEO, hosting, and managed website care from the Rio Grande Valley, Texas. Questions about this policy can be sent to james@rgv-websites.com.

Information you provide

When you submit a project inquiry or schedule a call, we collect the information entered in the form. This may include your name, business name, email address, phone number, website, project needs, budget, timeline, referral details, appointment selections, and notes.

Our forms offer a separate, optional newsletter choice. The project form also offers a separate free website wait-list choice. These choices are off by default and are recorded with the related inquiry or booking.

Cookies, analytics, and consent records

Google Analytics is disabled unless you choose to allow analytics cookies. If you accept, Google Analytics may collect device, browser, approximate location, and interaction information to help us understand and improve the website. Advertising storage remains disabled by our consent settings.

We remember your choice in your browser. We also keep a pseudonymous consent audit event in Supabase containing a random consent identifier, your analytics choice, the type of preference change, the policy version, and a server timestamp. We do not intentionally add your name, email, form responses, or raw IP address to this consent record.

Our hosting platform, Lovable, may process limited technical request data and operational telemetry needed to deliver, secure, diagnose, and measure the performance of the hosted website. This platform-level processing is separate from the optional Google Analytics setting controlled by our cookie panel.

To protect the consent audit endpoint from automated abuse, our server checks the request origin and temporarily processes network request information to create one-way rate-limit tokens. Network-based tokens rotate daily, and rate-limit rows are removed after two days. Raw network addresses are not stored in our consent audit or rate-limit tables. Consent audit events are retained for up to 24 months and then deleted on a daily rolling schedule. The rate-limit tokens are used only for security.

See our Cookie Policy for more detail and to learn how to change your preference.

How we use information

  • Respond to inquiries, provide estimates, and communicate about requested work.
  • Schedule and manage consultation calls.
  • Provide marketing messages only when a visitor separately opts in.
  • Operate, protect, troubleshoot, and improve the website and our services.
  • Maintain appropriate business and consent records and meet legal obligations.

Service providers and disclosure

We use service providers to run this website and process information on our behalf. These include Supabase for database services, Lovable for website hosting and email delivery services, and Google Analytics only after analytics consent. They process information under their own terms and privacy practices.

We do not sell personal information. We may disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or security, or as part of a business transfer.

Retention and security

We keep information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described here, including providing services, maintaining business and consent records, resolving disputes, and meeting legal obligations. Retention may vary by record type.

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Your choices and requests

You can reject analytics when the cookie panel appears or use the Cookie settings control in the footer at any time. You may also clear browser storage and cookies in your browser.

To ask about, correct, or request deletion of personal information we hold, or to withdraw a marketing request, email james@rgv-websites.com. We may need to verify a request and may retain information when legally permitted or required.

Children and policy changes

This website is intended for business customers and is not directed to children under 13. We may update this policy as our services or practices change. The revised date at the top of this page shows when the latest version took effect.
