Our website is hosted on Wix. Information submitted through the website may be stored or processed through Wix and its service infrastructure.
Depending on the features enabled, other providers may support forms, email, analytics, scheduling, embedded media, or customer relationship management.
6. When We Disclose Information
We may disclose relevant information in the following circumstances:
Service Providers
To providers supporting website hosting, communications, document storage, information technology, and other business functions. Disclosures should be limited to the information needed for the relevant service.
Project and Teaming Relationships
To clients, prime consultants, subcontractors, or other project participants when needed to respond to your request, evaluate a teaming opportunity, or perform an agreed assignment.

To accountants, legal counsel, insurers, or other advisers when relevant to their services.

When required by law or legal process, or when reasonably necessary to investigate misuse, protect rights and safety, or address a security incident.
Business Transactions
In connection with a proposed or completed merger, acquisition, reorganization, or transfer of business assets, subject to applicable requirements.
At Your Direction
When you authorize or request a disclosure.
7. Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising
Some privacy laws define “sale” and “sharing” broadly. Certain advertising or tracking arrangements can fall within those definitions even when no money is exchanged.
[Before publication: Confirm and describe whether UMP sells personal information, shares it for cross-context behavioral advertising, or processes it for targeted advertising. Identify the affected information and recipient categories. If none occur, state that accurately here.]
[If applicable: Add a working “Your Privacy Choices” or “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link and explain how visitors can exercise their choices.]
8. Browser Privacy Signals
Browsers may offer Do Not Track (DNT) settings or other privacy signals. Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a separate signal that can communicate an opt-out preference.
[Before publication: State whether and how the website responds to DNT signals. Separately confirm how valid GPC or other legally recognized opt-out signals are processed where required. Do not describe functionality that has not been implemented and tested.]
Third-party tools may collect information about visitors’ activities across websites or services if such tools are enabled.
[Confirm whether this occurs on UMP’s website and identify the relevant providers, or state that it does not occur.]
9. How Long We Retain Information
We retain personal information for the purposes described in this policy, considering the nature of the information, the business relationship, applicable obligations, and any need to resolve disputes.
[Before publication: Insert actual retention periods or specific retention criteria for website inquiries, marketing contacts, recruitment records, analytics data, and client-related records.]
Retention may be extended when required by a contract, records-retention obligation, legal hold, or other applicable requirement. Backup copies may remain until removed through established backup cycles.
10. Information Security
We seek to protect personal information through safeguards appropriate to the information and systems involved. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
Please contact us before sending information that requires special handling. General website forms and ordinary email may not be appropriate for confidential project files or sensitive personal information.
11. Your Choices
Updating Your Information
You may contact us to request correction of inaccurate contact or business information.
Marketing Communications
You may opt out of promotional emails by using an unsubscribe option where provided or emailing us with the subject line “Unsubscribe.” We may still send communications needed for an ongoing inquiry, contract, or service relationship.
Cookie Preferences
You may adjust browser settings and use website privacy controls where available. Cookie settings generally apply to the browser and device on which you make the selection.
Voluntary Submissions
You may choose not to provide requested information. This may limit our ability to respond, prepare a proposal, or provide a requested service.
12. Privacy Rights
Depending on your location and whether the relevant law applies to UMP, you may have rights to:
-
Request access to personal information.
-
Obtain information about collection, use, and disclosures.
-
Request correction of inaccurate information.
-
Request deletion, subject to applicable exceptions.
-
Receive certain information in a portable format.
-
Opt out of covered sales, sharing, or targeted advertising.
-
Limit certain uses of sensitive personal information.
-
Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.

These rights are subject to the conditions and exceptions of the applicable law. This section does not represent that every privacy law applies to UMP.
Submitting a Request
Email services@umplanners.com with the subject line “Privacy Request,” or call +1 (424) 302-3516.
Describe your request and provide enough information for us to locate relevant records. We may need to verify your identity or an authorized representative’s authority before fulfilling certain requests. Please do not send identification documents unless we request them through an appropriate method.
We will address requests within applicable legal timeframes and explain relevant limitations or reasons for denial.
13. California Residents
California residents may have additional rights under applicable California privacy laws. Where the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, applies to UMP and the relevant processing, these may include rights to know, access, correct, delete, and opt out of covered sales or sharing, along with other applicable protections.
[Before publication: Determine whether UMP is subject to the CCPA. If so, complete the required California disclosures, including information categories collected and disclosed during the preceding 12 months, recipient categories, retention information, and applicable request and opt-out methods. This draft is not a completed CCPA-specific notice.]
14. Children’s Privacy
Our website and professional services are intended for business audiences and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the website.
If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can review the matter and take appropriate action.
15. Visitors Outside the United States
UMP is based in the United States. Information may be processed in the United States and other locations where our providers operate, where privacy protections may differ from those in your location.
Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, those requirements must be addressed for the relevant processing. Using our website does not waive your privacy rights.
16. External Links
Our website may link to agency websites, professional organizations, social platforms, and other external resources. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We encourage you to review those policies before submitting information.
17. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in website features, business practices, or applicable requirements. The revised policy will display an updated date. Where required, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent for material changes.
