In-browser worksheets
The calculators and checklists on the Tools page run in your browser. Their fields are not submitted to SearchEngineConnect. Avoid entering confidential or personally identifying information in any web worksheet, even when it is designed to run locally.
Why information is used
Contact details are used to respond to the message, investigate a correction, or address a technical issue. Technical records are used for security, abuse prevention, reliability, and troubleshooting. We do not sell personal information or build advertising profiles from contact messages.
Service providers and external links
The site is hosted through infrastructure providers that process requests needed to deliver and protect the service. Articles also link to independent external websites. Their privacy practices apply after you follow those links.
Retention and choices
We keep contact correspondence only as long as it remains useful for the request, correction history, security, or legal obligations. You may ask us to delete a contact message by writing to hello@searchengineconnect.com; some records may need to be retained where required for security or legal reasons.
