SMK Brands (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information and the information of potential customers (Leads) we process on behalf of our clients when you interact with our website, services, and marketing campaigns.

Automatically Collected Data: IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and interactions with our site (through cookies and analytics tools).

Respond to inquiries and deliver requested quotes.
Run targeted advertising and retargeting campaigns to promote our services or the services of our clients.

3. Sharing and Disclosure

We may share your information with:

Service Providers: Trusted partners who help us with hosting, analytics, advertising, and email delivery.
Clients: As a lead generation agency, we share the contact information of identified Leads with the client for whom the data was collected.
Legal Authorities: When required by law or to protect our rights, property, or safety.

We do not sell your personal information in exchange for monetary payment. However, we may share or disclose your personal data with third-party advertising partners for targeted advertising, which may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under certain state laws. We will honor all opt-out requests.

We require your express, prior consent to process sensitive personal data (as defined by Florida law, e.g., precise geolocation) for any purpose beyond what is strictly necessary. We will not sell sensitive data without your explicit prior consent.

4. Cookies and Tracking

Our site uses cookies, pixels, and similar tools to:

Improve user experience.
Analyze site performance.
Deliver relevant ads.

You can manage your preferences, disable cookies through your browser settings, or use industry-standard tools to opt out of targeted ads.

5. Your Privacy Rights (Florida & Beyond)

Depending on your location, you have rights over your personal data. If you are a Florida resident, you have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you.
Correct inaccurate information.
Request deletion of your personal data.
Opt out of targeted advertising.
Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal or sensitive data.
Opt out of profiling in furtherance of a decision that produces a legal or similarly significant effect.

To exercise these rights, please click the “Your Privacy Choices” link in our website footer or contact us at: [insert contact email]. We will respond to verified requests within 45 days, as required by Florida law. We will also provide an appeal mechanism if we deny your request.

6. Data Retention

We keep your information only as long as needed for business, legal, or contractual reasons. When no longer required, we securely delete or anonymize your data.

7. Security Measures

We take reasonable steps to protect your information through encryption, restricted access, and secure data storage. However, no system is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute protection.

8. Data Breach Notification

If a data breach occurs that compromises your personal information, we will notify you and, if required, the appropriate authorities in compliance with the Florida Information Protection Act (FIPA).

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal obligations. Updates will be posted here with a new “Last Updated” date.
