Privacy policy

Questions about this policy: rodolfo.maldonado@growthmarketingstrategy.com
This website (growthmarketingstrategy.com) and Outranked are run by Growth Revenue Optimization LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“we”, “us”). Our mailing address is 3801 N Capital of Texas Hwy, Ste E240-3779, Austin, TX 78746-3779. Our founder works from Redwood City, California. This policy explains what we collect, why, who helps us process it, and what you can ask us to do with it.
What we collect
When you fill in a form (lead estimate, contact, or agency partner):
- Your name, email, phone (optional), business type or company, budget or client range, city or service area, and anything you write in the message box.
- The form is sent to our inbox and saved as a row in our lead list. We use your IP address for a few minutes to stop the form being spammed; we don’t save it with your submission.
When you use the free map check on the Outranked page:
- The business name, city and type of business you type in. We send them to Google Maps Platform to find the business and run the searches.
- We don’t save the results of a free check. To limit checks per person per day, we save a one-way scrambled (hashed) version of your IP address together with the date and a count.
When you buy Outranked:
- Stripe handles checkout. We keep your email, what you bought, the amount and whether payment went through; your other checkout details stay in our Stripe account. We never see or store your card details. If you choose Klarna at checkout, Klarna handles that part under its own terms and privacy notice.
- Your intake answers: business name, street address, phone, website, type of business, services, service areas, what makes you different, and your delivery email. We use them only to write your copy, make your videos and re-check your map.
- Your order, the copy we write and your videos are stored on our Cloudflare account, and your map is re-checked on the schedule of the product you bought.
Business outreach and Outranked rank pages:
- We contact local businesses about our services. To do that we collect business details from public sources: name, address, phone and website from OpenStreetMap and Google, and business email addresses published on the business’s own website. This is business contact information, not consumer data.
- Some emails link to a private page (under growthmarketingstrategy.com/r/) that shows that business’s Google Maps rank results. The link is hard to guess, the page is hidden from search engines, and it comes down 30 days after the first email.
- When that page is opened, we record that it was opened, when, and which version of the page was shown. We look at the browser’s user-agent to tell people apart from email security scanners, but we don’t store it. We also count clicks on the checkout button.
- Once you scroll, tap, click or press a key on that page, we also record which parts of it you scrolled to, roughly how long it was open, which questions you expanded, and which of our links you followed. We use this only in aggregate, to see where the page loses people and improve it. None of this is recorded if the page is only loaded and never touched.
- The rank pages use Google Analytics for the same purpose. It loads only after you scroll, tap, click or press a key, and sets Google Analytics cookies (
_ga) on growthmarketingstrategy.com. Google receives the standard details any website visit sends (such as IP address and browser), a generic page address and title, and the business category (for example “dentist”), never your page’s private link or your business name. We keep Google signals and ad personalization turned off. You can block it with your browser’s settings or Google’s opt-out add-on. - If you unsubscribe or ask us to stop, we keep your email address on a do-not-contact list so we don’t email you again.
Every visit:
- Our hosting providers (Vercel for this site, Cloudflare for the /r/ pages) keep standard request logs: IP address, browser, the page requested and the time. They are used to run and protect the service.
- Apart from Google Analytics on the rank pages (above), we don’t set cookies. The site saves two small settings in your own browser: your light or dark theme choice, and whether you have already seen the intro animation. They never leave your device.
No ad pixels, no session recording
This site loads no advertising pixels and no session recording tools. The only analytics tool is Google Analytics, and only on the Outranked rank pages, as described above; the rest of the site has none. We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it with anyone for cross-context behavioral advertising.
How we use it
- To reply to you, prepare your lead estimate, and talk about working together.
- To deliver what you bought, send it to you, and handle refunds and support.
- To contact businesses about our services, and to honor every opt-out.
- To test which version of an email or rank page works better, and to find where rank pages lose people, using counts, not profiles of people.
- To keep the site and forms safe from abuse, and to meet legal and tax duties.
We use AI models that run on Cloudflare (Workers AI) to draft Outranked copy from your intake answers and to sort replies to our emails. The copy is checked automatically against your answers, and sentences that can’t be traced to them are removed. We do not add you to a newsletter you did not ask for.
Who processes it for us
We share information only with the service providers that run parts of the business for us:
- Vercel: hosts this website.
- Cloudflare: runs the Outranked rank pages, free map check, intake form and order system, stores Outranked data (D1 database, KV storage) and runs the AI models named above.
- Resend: delivers your form submission to our inbox.
- Google Workspace: our email (Gmail), including outreach and order emails, and Google Sheets, where form submissions are saved.
- Google Maps Platform: business lookups, rank searches and map images for the free check and the rank pages.
- Google Analytics: measures how the Outranked rank pages are used, in aggregate.
- Stripe, and Klarna if you choose it: payments.
- GitHub: renders Outranked videos and hosts our code.
- Cal.com: if you book a call through our booking link, Cal.com collects the details you enter there.
Each provider handles data under its own terms. We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect our rights or someone’s safety, or to a buyer if the business is ever sold (this policy would still apply to it).
How long we keep it
- Form submissions and customer records: as long as we are talking or working together, and after that as long as we need them for records, taxes and disputes.
- Rank pages: taken down 30 days after the first email.
- Do-not-contact list: kept so the opt-out keeps working.
We don’t yet delete every record automatically on a schedule. If you want something deleted, ask and we will delete it unless we must keep it by law.
See, correct or delete your information
Email rodolfo.maldonado@growthmarketingstrategy.com to ask what we hold about you, to correct it, to delete it, or to stop any contact. We reply within 30 days. We may ask you to confirm the request comes from you.
California’s consumer privacy law (CCPA) does not currently apply to us, because we are below its size thresholds. We honor access, deletion and opt-out requests from anyone anyway, wherever you live, and we won’t treat you differently for making one.
To stop our emails, use the unsubscribe link in any email, or reply “stop”.
Do Not Track
We don’t track you across other websites, so a browser’s Do Not Track signal doesn’t change what this site does. We don’t respond to it in any special way.
Children
This site is for businesses. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you think a child sent us information, email us and we will delete it.
Security
We use HTTPS, signed private links, and accounts limited to the people who run the business. No system is perfectly secure, so we can’t guarantee that information will never be exposed. If a breach affects you, we will tell you as the law requires.
Where data is processed
We are based in the United States. Our providers may process data in the United States and other countries where they operate.
Changes to this policy
When we change this policy we post the new version here and update the date at the top. If a change materially affects how we use information we already hold, we will also email the customers we have an address for.
