Legal
In plain terms
This policy explains what information themcq.ai collects, how it is used, and how it is protected — including how we handle phone numbers and consent for text messages. We do not sell your personal information, and we never share text-messaging opt-in or consent data with third parties for their own marketing.
This Privacy Policy describes how Bruce McQuillen (“we,” “us,” or “our”), operating the website and services at themcq.ai (the “Service”), collects, uses, and discloses information about you. By using the Service or providing us with your information, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
We collect the following categories of information:
We use the information we collect to:
If you provide your mobile phone number and opt in to receive text messages, we use it solely to send the messages you have consented to receive — for example timesheet completion reminders. Standard message and data rates may apply, and message frequency varies.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Information sharing with subcontractors who support our services — for example, customer-service providers or messaging platforms — is permitted, but those parties may use the information only to provide services to us. Text-messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.
You can opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP to any message from us. For help, reply HELP or contact us at bruce@mcquillen.net. For full messaging terms, see our Terms & Conditions.
We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Service, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When information is no longer needed, we take steps to delete or de-identify it.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, and to opt out of certain processing. You can also unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link in those emails, or opt out of text messages by replying STOP. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.
The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the age required by your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
