Data We Collect
BeltFish Notary may process identification details, contact information, message content, appointment or request details, technical data such as device and browser information, and records of site activity.

How We Collect Data
We collect personal data directly from users when they complete forms, send inquiries, or otherwise communicate with us. We also receive data automatically through the operation of the website, including device identifiers, log data, and cookie-related information. In some cases, we may derive limited information from the way a user navigates or uses the site.
Cookies We Use
The site may use essential cookies to support basic functions, preference cookies to remember settings, and analytics cookies to understand site performance and usage patterns. Cookies may be session-based or persistent depending on their purpose. We do not rely on cookies for purposes beyond those described in this policy.
Cookie Controls
Users may manage cookies through their browser settings and, where available, through on-site preference tools. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect site functionality and some features may not operate as intended. Essential cookies may still be used where necessary for security and basic operation.
How We Use Data
We use personal data to operate and maintain the website, respond to inquiries, manage user communications, provide requested notary-related information, improve site performance, protect against fraud or misuse, and comply with legal or administrative obligations. We may also use data to keep records of transactions, support internal administration, and enforce our terms or policies where necessary.
Service Providers
We may share personal data with service providers that support hosting, security, analytics, communications, or other operational functions. These parties are expected to use the information only for the services they provide to us and to maintain appropriate confidentiality and security measures. We do not authorize them to use the data for unrelated purposes.
Legal Disclosures
We may disclose personal data where necessary to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests, protect our rights, investigate misuse, or support the administration of the site. Disclosure may also occur in connection with a dispute, security incident, or other matter where release of information is reasonably necessary.
Your Rights
Depending on applicable law, users may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to certain processing of their personal data, and to request restriction where appropriate. Some requests may be limited where we must keep information for legal, security, or operational reasons. We may need to verify identity before acting on a request.
How to Make a Request
To make a privacy request, provide enough information for us to identify the relevant records and understand the nature of the request. We may ask for additional details to confirm identity or to clarify the scope of the request. If a request cannot be fully satisfied, we will explain the reason to the extent required by law.
Data Retention
We retain personal data for the period needed to provide the requested service, maintain records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet legal, accounting, or security requirements. When data is no longer needed, we delete it, anonymize it, or otherwise handle it in a manner consistent with our retention practices and applicable law.
Policy Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, services, or legal obligations. The revised version will apply from the time it is posted unless a different effective date is stated. Users should review this page periodically to remain informed about current terms.
