We use cookies and similar technologies (pixels, tags, SDKs) to operate our site, remember preferences, analyze traffic, and measure/serve ads. Non‑essential cookies are set with your consent where required (e.g., EEA/UK). Manage preferences via our cookie banner/consent manager, your browser, and platform tools (Google, Meta, LinkedIn, etc.).

Do Not Track / Global Privacy Control (GPC): We do not respond to browser DNT signals, but for California consumers we treat a valid GPC signal as an opt‑out of “sale”/“sharing” for that browser.

  • Service providers/processors — hosting, CRM, email/SMS, analytics, ad networks, payment processors, security, professional advisors (bound by contracts/DPAs).
  • Advertising/analytics partners — campaign measurement/optimization (e.g., Google Analytics/Ads, Meta, LinkedIn). No direct contact details shared unless you submit them or we have a lawful basis.
  • Business transfers — merger, acquisition, financing, or asset sale (recipient must honor this Policy).
  • Legal & compliance — to comply with laws, lawful requests, protect rights/users/public.
  • With your direction or consent.

We do not sell Personal Data for money. Under CCPA/CPRA, certain sharing for cross‑context behavioral advertising may be deemed a “sale” or “share.” You can opt‑out (see Section 8).

We are headquartered in India and may transfer Personal Data to other countries. Where required, we implement safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) for EEA/UK residents and contractual/technical measures (encryption at rest/in transit, access controls). You can request a copy of safeguards by contacting us.

  • Lead/marketing records: up to 24 months after last interaction or until consent is withdrawn.
  • Contract/accounting & project files: 7 years after engagement end (or longer if required by law).
  • Security logs: typically 12 months unless needed for incident investigation.

We keep data only as long as necessary for the purposes described or as required by law, then delete or de‑identify it.

We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data (e.g., least‑privilege access, MFA for admin accounts, encryption in transit, vendor due diligence). No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

Rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, object (including to direct marketing), and data portability. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local DPA.

Rights to know/access, correct, delete, and to opt‑out of “sale” or “sharing” of Personal Information (including cross‑context behavioral advertising). You may also limit use/disclosure of sensitive Personal Information and are protected against discrimination for exercising your rights. We honor GPC signals where feasible. Use unsubscribe links for email and cookie banner/platform settings for ads.

Rights to access, correct, erase, and nominate a contact to exercise rights in case of death or incapacity. You may contact our Grievance Officer for redress. We will make reasonable efforts to resolve grievances within statutory timelines.

You may have similar rights depending on your location. To exercise rights, email Satish@pivotdigitalmedia.com with the subject “Privacy Request” and specify your request. We will verify identity (and agent authority, if applicable) and respond within required timeframes (generally 30–45 days).

Our website and communications may include links to third‑party sites, plug‑ins, and platforms (e.g., Google, Meta, LinkedIn, YouTube, WhatsApp). We do not control these third parties. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

If you subscribe or provide contact details, we may send emails or messages about Services and events. You can unsubscribe or opt‑out at any time using the link in emails or by contacting us. For SMS/WhatsApp, reply STOP or use channel‑specific opt‑outs.

For certain client engagements (e.g., ad operations, analytics deployments, CRM integrations), we may process end‑user data on behalf of a client. In those cases, the client’s privacy notice governs and our processing is subject to a DPA. We will:

  • process data only on documented instructions;
  • implement security;
  • assist with data subject requests and incident notifications as required;
  • ensure sub‑processors are bound by equivalent protections; and
  • delete/return data upon termination, subject to legal retention obligations.

We may update this Policy to reflect changes in law or practices. We will post the updated version with a new Effective date, and provide additional notice if changes are material.
