Richard Troutner Consulting Corp ("RTCC") may receive information submitted through website forms, email, telephone, scheduling tools, file-transfer tools, or other direct communications. This may include your name, company, role, contact information, project description, deadlines, systems, budget context, and documents you choose to provide.
The website and its service providers may collect technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, referral source, pages viewed, form events, approximate location, cookies, and security logs. This information may be used to operate, secure, troubleshoot, measure, and improve the website.
RTCC treats nonpublic business information received in connection with an inquiry as confidential in ordinary business handling. A website submission does not by itself create a consulting relationship, attorney-client relationship, fiduciary duty, or formal nondisclosure agreement. Appropriate contractual confidentiality terms may be established before sensitive materials are exchanged.
Do not submit passwords, full banking credentials, Social Security numbers, protected health information, export-controlled information, payment-card data, or other unnecessary regulated data through a public website form. RTCC may provide a more appropriate transfer method when sensitive documents are required.
RTCC may use providers for hosting, security, analytics, email, scheduling, forms, file transfer, documents, payments, customer management, and other business operations. Information may be disclosed to those providers as reasonably necessary for their services, subject to their terms and applicable safeguards. RTCC may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights or safety, during a business transaction, or with your direction.
The site may use cookies or similar technologies for essential operation, preferences, analytics, security, and measurement. Browser settings may allow you to limit cookies, although some features may not function as intended.
Information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including inquiry follow-up, engagement administration, legal obligations, dispute resolution, security, and legitimate business records. Retention periods vary by information type and context.
RTCC uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures appropriate to the information and systems involved. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
You may request correction or deletion of information you submitted, subject to legal, security, contractual, and record-retention obligations. To make a request, use the contact page.
The site may link to third-party websites. RTCC is not responsible for their privacy, content, availability, or security practices.
This policy may be updated as the website, business, or legal requirements change. The last-updated date identifies the current version.
