PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

 

This Privacy Policy describes how Mattertree, Inc. (“Mattertree,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information in connection with KarltonButts.com (the “Site”), the official website of Karlton Butts.

 

The Site is managed and operated by Mattertree. References to the “Site” include KarltonButts.com and, where applicable, Mattertree.com, KarltonSpeaks.com, and other domains owned or operated by Mattertree that link to this Privacy Policy or redirect visitors to KarltonButts.com.

 

This Privacy Policy also applies to personal information you provide when you use features associated with the Site, including our Wix contact form and our optional appointment-scheduling service powered by GoHighLevel/HighLevel (“HighLevel”).

 

Please review this Privacy Policy to understand our practices regarding your personal information.

 

1. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

 

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, legal requirements, or other circumstances.

 

When we update this Privacy Policy, we will revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. Material changes may also be communicated through the Site or by other appropriate means where required by applicable law.

 

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.

 

2. SITE HOST AND THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

 

The Site is hosted on the Wix.com platform (“Wix”). Wix provides the technology and infrastructure used to operate the Site and may process certain information about visitors in connection with providing its services to Mattertree.

 

The Site includes a Wix contact form through which you may voluntarily provide information to us. Information submitted through the contact form may be stored or processed through Wix and transmitted to Mattertree, including by email.

 

The Site also provides visitors with the option to schedule a call or meeting with Karlton Butts using a scheduling service powered by HighLevel. If you choose to schedule a call, HighLevel may process the information you provide in connection with scheduling and managing that appointment on our behalf.

 

Wix and HighLevel maintain their own privacy and security practices and may process information as service providers or processors in connection with the services they provide to us.

 

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of Wix, HighLevel, and any other third-party service you choose to interact with.

7. COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

 

The Site may use cookies and similar technologies provided by Wix or other technologies used in connection with operating the Site.

 

Cookies are small data files placed on or associated with your browser or device. Depending on the Site's configuration, cookies and similar technologies may be used to:

 

• enable essential Site functionality;

• maintain security;

• remember preferences;

• understand how visitors interact with the Site; and

• measure or improve Site performance.

 

Some cookies may be necessary for the Site to function properly, while others may be optional.

 

Where required by applicable law, we will provide appropriate choices regarding non-essential cookies or similar technologies.

 

You may also control certain cookies using your browser settings. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect the availability or functionality of portions of the Site.

 

Third-party services accessible from or integrated with the Site may use their own cookies or similar technologies and are governed by their own privacy practices.

 

8. DATA RETENTION

 

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to:

 

• respond to and maintain records of inquiries;

• manage professional or business relationships;

• comply with legal, accounting, or regulatory requirements;

• resolve disputes;

• enforce agreements; and

• establish, exercise, or defend legal rights.

 

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information, the reason it was collected, and applicable legal requirements.

 

When personal information is no longer reasonably necessary, we may delete, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of it in accordance with our practices and applicable law.

 

9. DATA SECURITY

 

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, misuse, or destruction.

 

We also rely on service providers such as Wix and HighLevel to maintain safeguards appropriate to the services they provide.

 

However, no Internet transmission, electronic storage system, or security measure is completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of personal information.

 

10. COMMUNICATIONS AND MARKETING OPT-OUTS

 

We may communicate with you in response to an inquiry, appointment request, existing relationship, or other interaction with Mattertree.

 

Where permitted by applicable law, we may also send business updates, invitations, information regarding services, or other promotional communications that we believe may be relevant to you.

 

You may opt out of receiving marketing emails from us at any time by:

 

• using the “Unsubscribe” link included in applicable marketing emails; or

• contacting us at info@mattertree.com.

 

We will honor applicable opt-out requests in accordance with applicable law.

 

Please note that opting out of marketing communications does not prevent us from sending non-promotional communications reasonably necessary to respond to your requests, manage appointments, provide requested services, administer an existing relationship, or comply with legal obligations.
