Aggregated heatmaps and session recordings of Website usage

6. Sale and Targeted Advertising

Based on the Website practices described in this Privacy Policy, we also do not use personal information collected through the Website for cross-context behavioral or targeted advertising on our behalf.
If our practices change—for example, if we later introduce advertising, remarketing pixels, or other advertising technologies—we will update this Privacy Policy as appropriate.
7. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including responding to inquiries, evaluating potential business relationships, maintaining appropriate business records, resolving disputes, and meeting legal or regulatory obligations.
When information is no longer reasonably necessary for these purposes, we may delete, anonymize, or de-identify it.
Google Analytics data is retained according to the settings applicable to our Google Analytics property. GA4's standard user-level and event-level data-retention settings allow retention for up to 14 months.

We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests. We will respond to valid requests as required by applicable law.
If a particular state privacy law does not apply to Honeycomb Strategies or to your information, we may nevertheless choose to respond to reasonable privacy requests at our discretion.
9. Do Not Track and Browser Privacy Signals
Some web browsers provide a "Do Not Track" ("DNT") setting that communicates a user's preference regarding online tracking.
There is not currently a universally accepted standard for responding to traditional DNT signals, and the Website does not currently change its practices in response to traditional DNT signals.
You may control cookies and similar technologies through your browser or device settings.
Honeycomb Strategies does not sell personal information or use information collected through this Website for targeted advertising on our behalf. Accordingly, browser-based opt-out signals relating specifically to the sale of personal information or targeted advertising generally do not alter our Website practices.
10. Third-Party Websites
The Website may contain links to third-party websites or services, including LinkedIn.
If you follow a link to another website, the privacy practices of that website are governed by its own privacy policy. Honeycomb Strategies is not responsible for the privacy, security, or content practices of third-party websites or services.
11. Information Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information collected through the Website.
However, no website, electronic transmission, or information-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should use appropriate care when deciding what information to send through the Website.
12. Children's Privacy
The Website is intended for a business audience and is not directed to children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Website. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our Website, business practices, technologies, or legal obligations.
When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. If changes materially affect how we use personal information previously collected, we will provide additional notice where required by applicable law.
