This Privacy Policy describes how Bowen & Company ("we," "us," or "our"), operating at bowen.company, collects, uses, and protects information when you visit this website and interact with our services. We are committed to handling information responsibly and transparently.

A note on what we do not collect: Bowen & Company is a consulting firm. This website does not collect, store, process, or transmit electronic protected health information (ePHI), personal health information, or any information subject to HIPAA. No patient data of any kind is submitted through or processed by this website.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide directly

When you submit the contact form on this website, we collect the information you enter, which may include:

First and last name
Email address
Company name
Area of interest (selected from a dropdown)
Any message content you choose to include

This information is submitted voluntarily. You are not required to provide it, and submitting the form does not create a contractual or service relationship.

Information collected automatically

When you visit this website, certain information is collected automatically through analytics and tag management tools described in Section 3. This may include:

Browser type and version
Operating system
Pages visited and time spent on each page
Referring URL (the page you came from)
General geographic location (country and region, derived from IP address)
Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)

We do not collect precise location data, and IP addresses are not stored in identifiable form by our analytics configuration.

2. How We Use Information

Information collected through the contact form is used solely to:

Respond to your inquiry
Assess whether our services are a fit for your organization
Follow up on conversations initiated through the form

We do not sell, rent, or share contact form submissions with third parties for marketing purposes. We do not add form submissions to automated marketing lists without explicit consent.

Automatically collected analytics data is used in aggregate to understand how visitors interact with this website — which pages are most visited, how visitors navigate the site, and where content can be improved. This data is not used to identify individual visitors.

3. Third-Party Tools and Services

This website uses the following third-party tools. Each operates under its own privacy policy and terms of service.

Google Tag Manager (GTM)

We use Google Tag Manager to manage and deploy tracking tags on this website. GTM itself does not collect personal data — it acts as a container for other tags. The tags currently deployed through GTM are described below. Google's privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.

Google Analytics 4 (GA4)

We use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymized data about website traffic and visitor behavior. GA4 uses cookies to track sessions and page interactions. The data collected is aggregated and used to understand site performance. We have configured GA4 without advertising features, and IP addresses are anonymized by default in GA4.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Google's privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.

Formspree

The contact form on this website is powered by Formspree, a third-party form processing service. When you submit the contact form, your submission is transmitted to and processed by Formspree before being delivered to us. Formspree stores form submissions on its servers in accordance with its own privacy policy, available at formspree.io/legal/privacy-policy. We recommend reviewing Formspree's policy if you have questions about how your submission data is stored or processed.

Google Fonts

This website loads fonts from Google Fonts. When your browser requests a font file, Google may log your IP address and browser information. Google's privacy policy applies to this data. If you prefer, most modern browsers allow you to block third-party font requests.

4. Cookies

This website uses cookies primarily through Google Analytics 4. Cookies are small text files stored in your browser that allow analytics tools to recognize repeat visitors and track session behavior.

The cookies set by Google Analytics 4 on this site include:

_ga — distinguishes unique users; expires after 2 years
_ga_[ID] — maintains session state; expires after 2 years

We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting cookies, or any cookies that track you across other websites.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or be notified when a cookie is set. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some website features.

5. Data Retention

Contact form submissions are retained for as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry and manage any resulting business relationship. If no engagement results, submissions are not retained beyond the period needed to evaluate fit.

Google Analytics data is retained in accordance with our GA4 configuration, which is set to 14 months by default. Aggregated analytics data may be retained indefinitely.

Formspree retains form submissions in accordance with its own retention policies. Please refer to Formspree's privacy policy for details.

6. Data Security

This website is served over HTTPS, which encrypts data in transit between your browser and our web server. Contact form submissions are transmitted over encrypted connections through Formspree.

We take reasonable precautions to protect information submitted through this website. However, no transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of any information you submit.

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding information we hold about you, including the right to:

Request access to information we hold about you
