1. Overview

This website is operated as the professional online presence of Brandon Rohrbaugh, a writer, e-commerce operator, and AI-assisted content strategist based in Hanover, Pennsylvania. The website may be used to present professional experience, writing services, portfolio materials, e-commerce background, blog content, contact options, and related professional information.

By using this website, visitors acknowledge that limited information may be collected through ordinary website functionality, contact forms, analytics tools, embedded services, external links, and similar digital systems.

This policy is intended to provide a clear and practical explanation of general website privacy practices. It should not be understood as individualized legal advice.

2. Information That May Be Collected

This website may collect information that visitors voluntarily provide and information that is collected automatically through standard website technologies.

Information voluntarily provided

Visitors may voluntarily provide information when using a contact form, submitting an inquiry, requesting information, subscribing to an email list, or communicating through linked professional platforms. This information may include:

  • Name;
  • Email address;
  • Website or professional link;
  • Organization or business name;
  • Inquiry type;
  • Message content;
  • Project details, professional context, or other information included in a submission.

Information collected automatically

Like many websites, this site may collect limited technical information automatically. This may include IP address, browser type, device type, referring pages, pages visited, general location data, time spent on the site, and other usage information.

3. How Information May Be Used

Information collected through this website may be used for legitimate professional, administrative, operational, and communication purposes, including:

  • Responding to contact form submissions and professional inquiries;
  • Evaluating freelance, employment, writing, content, e-commerce, or collaboration opportunities;
  • Improving website structure, content, usability, and performance;
  • Understanding general visitor behavior and website traffic patterns;
  • Maintaining website security and preventing misuse;
  • Managing email communication, if visitors voluntarily subscribe or request follow-up;
  • Complying with applicable legal, security, or administrative obligations.

Personal information is not intended to be sold as a standalone commercial product. Information may, however, be processed by third-party platforms or service providers that support website hosting, analytics, email delivery, form processing, security, or related operational functions.

4. Cookies, Analytics, and Similar Technologies

This website may use cookies, analytics tools, embedded scripts, pixels, or similar technologies to understand website performance, measure visitor activity, improve user experience, and support ordinary website functionality.

Cookies are small files or records that may be stored on a visitor’s device by a website or related service. Visitors may be able to disable or limit cookies through their browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how certain website features function.

Analytics data is generally used in aggregated or technical form to evaluate traffic, page performance, referral sources, and general user interaction with the site.

5. Third-Party Services and External Links

This website may link to third-party websites, professional profiles, e-commerce stores, marketplace pages, newsletter platforms, portfolio examples, social media profiles, or other external resources. Examples may include LinkedIn, Amazon, Shopify-based stores, email marketing platforms, analytics providers, embedded media, and similar services.

Third-party websites and platforms are governed by their own privacy policies, terms, and data practices. Brandon Rohrbaugh is not responsible for the privacy practices, security standards, content, or policies of external websites.

Visitors should review the privacy policies of third-party platforms before submitting personal information or engaging with those services.

6. Email Communications

If visitors submit an inquiry, subscribe to a list, request a resource, or otherwise provide an email address, that email address may be used to respond to the inquiry, provide requested information, deliver relevant professional communication, or manage subscription-based communication.

Visitors who receive marketing or newsletter-style emails should be able to unsubscribe using the unsubscribe link or instructions included in those messages. Transactional, administrative, or direct-response messages may still be sent when necessary to respond to a visitor’s request or manage an active professional communication.

7. Data Security

Reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures may be used to protect information submitted through this website. However, no website, email system, form tool, hosting provider, or internet transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Visitors should avoid submitting highly sensitive personal information through general website forms unless specifically requested through an appropriate secure channel.

8. Data Retention

Information submitted through this website may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to inquiries, manage professional communication, maintain business records, evaluate opportunities, improve website operations, resolve disputes, or comply with applicable obligations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the communication, the type of information submitted, the tools used to process the information, and the practical requirements of maintaining professional records.

9. Children’s Privacy

This website is intended for a general professional audience and is not directed toward children. The website does not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children. If a parent or guardian believes that a child has submitted personal information through this website, the parent or guardian may request that the information be reviewed or removed.

10. Visitor Choices and Privacy Requests

Depending on location and applicable law, visitors may have certain rights or choices regarding personal information. These may include the ability to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or other review of personal information submitted through this website.

Visitors may also manage cookies through browser settings, unsubscribe from marketing emails where applicable, or avoid submitting optional information through contact forms.

To make a privacy-related request, visitors should use the contact page and include sufficient information to identify the relevant communication or submission.

Privacy laws may differ by jurisdiction. Visitors from certain states, countries, or regions may have additional privacy rights under applicable law. This website is operated from Pennsylvania in the United States, but it may be accessible to visitors from other locations.

If specific privacy laws apply to a visitor’s interaction with this website, Brandon Rohrbaugh will make reasonable efforts to respond to appropriate privacy requests in accordance with applicable requirements.
