Who we are

Handpicked Network LLC (“Handpicked”, “we”, “us”) is an Arizona company that recommends local businesses to neighbors who ask for one. This policy covers this website and its contact form. Questions? Email dylanpower@handpicked.network.

What we collect

• What you send us. When you fill in the contact form: your name, business name, trade, the area you work in, phone number, email, anything you write to us, and whether you agreed to texts.
• How you use the site. We use Google Analytics to see how people find and use the site: the pages you visit, roughly where you are (about the city), your device and browser, and the site that sent you. It does this with cookies (see “Cookies and analytics” below).
• Basic connection details. Like every website, the services that host this site and deliver its fonts and code see your IP address and browser details when your browser asks them for files.
• One note in your browser. The site remembers that its opening intro has already played, so it doesn’t play on every page. It stays in your browser for that visit and isn’t sent to us.

How we use it

• To reply to your inquiry and talk with you about our service.
• To keep a record of your inquiry as a lead in our customer management system.
• To text you about your inquiry, if you agreed to texts.
• To understand how the site is used and make it better.
• To keep the site and our records secure, and to meet legal requirements.

Text messages

If you check the box on our contact form, you agree that Handpicked Network LLC may text you at the number you gave us about your inquiry and our service. How often we text depends on the conversation. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to stop, or HELP for help. Agreeing to texts is never a condition of buying anything from us.

We don’t share your mobile number or your consent to receive texts with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. Text-message opt-in data and consent are not shared with any third parties, apart from the service providers that send our texts for us.

Who we share it with

We don’t sell your personal information. We share it only:

• with the services that run parts of our business for us: the form service that delivers contact-form messages to our team by email, our customer management system, our text-messaging provider, our website host, and Google (for Google Analytics and the site’s fonts). They may use it only to provide their service to us;
• when the law requires it, or to protect our rights or someone’s safety;
• if the business is sold or merged, with the new owner, who must keep these same promises.

Cookies and analytics

Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser to tell visits apart. Google handles this information under its own policies: how Google uses information from sites that use its services. You can block or delete cookies in your browser’s settings, or install Google’s opt-out browser add-on. The site works the same without them. It doesn’t respond to “Do Not Track” signals.

How long we keep it

We keep your inquiry in our customer management system for as long as it’s useful to our work with you, or as long as the law requires. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

Your choices

Email dylanpower@handpicked.network to ask what information we hold about you, or to have it corrected or deleted. Reply STOP to any text to stop our texts.

Keeping it safe

We use reasonable measures to protect your information, though no website or system is completely secure.

Children

This site is for business owners. It isn’t meant for children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect their information.

Changes

If we change this policy, we’ll post the new version here with its new date.
