Privacy Policy for Digital Shoutouts

Effective Date: June 22, 2026

Last Updated: June 22, 2026

Introduction & Global Compliance Framework

Welcome to Digital Shoutouts (accessible via https://digitalshoutouts.com/). We operate as an elite global digital marketing, branding, web development, SEO, performance marketing, content marketing, social media marketing, UI/UX, AI automation, creative strategy, and business growth consulting firm.

As a digital-first enterprise serving clients globally, our data practices are designed to offer maximum transparency, optimize user experience, and strictly adhere to international privacy laws. This Privacy Policy outlines our data architecture, processing workflows, and the rigorous mechanisms we use to protect your personal information.

This policy is optimized for Google’s Search Quality Evaluator Guidelines, ensuring high standards of Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness (E-E-A-T). It aligns precisely with:

  • The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) – European Union & United Kingdom

  • The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the CPRA – California, USA

  • The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023 – India

  • Google’s Mandatory EU User Consent Policy & Platform Frameworks

1. Corporate Governance & Data Protection Officer (E-E-A-T Enhancement)

To ensure absolute accountability, we have established a dedicated data compliance wing. The data controller and fiduciary responsible for your information can be reached directly through our secure compliance channel:

2. Google Consent Mode v2 & Tracking Frameworks

In accordance with Google’s updated compliance mandates for analytics and advertising platforms, our website fully integrates Google Consent Mode v2.

When you land on our platform, our cookie management system requests explicit consent for tracking. These preferences are securely transmitted via specific signals directly to our Google tags:

  • ad_storage & ad_user_data: Controls whether your personal data can be used for targeted behavioral advertising and profile building.

  • ad_personalization: Manages whether your interactions can be used for remarketing across Google’s ad networks.

  • analytics_storage: Governs whether anonymous telemetry, page response times, and Core Web Vitals can be collected to maintain site performance.

If you decline non-essential cookies or withhold consent, our Google tags adjust dynamically. They switch to a cookieless state, processing anonymous data signals without deploying trackers on your device. This guarantees your right to privacy while maintaining compliance with Google’s operational frameworks.

3. Categories of Personal Data We Collect

We only collect personal data that is strictly necessary to deliver our business growth services, maintain portal security, and optimize our technical performance.

A. Data Disclosed Intentionally by You

  • Identity & Corporate Contact Information: First name, last name, corporate email address, business phone number, company name, geographic location, and job title collected via intake forms, growth audit requests, or booking links.

  • Project Integration Data: Proprietary operational metrics, existing brand assets, target audience personas, and website access configurations supplied during technical onboarding for SEO, UI/UX, or web development projects.

  • Billing & Accounting Records: Corporate tax identification numbers (such as GSTIN in India or VAT registrations globally), corporate billing addresses, and transactional histories. All payment collection operations are executed through secure, PCI-DSS compliant third-party payment gateways.

B. Technical Telemetry Collected Automatically

  • Device & Connection Metrics: Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser signatures, version data, operating systems, hardware configurations, and network localized time zones.

  • Behavioral & Performance Logs: Clickstream paths across our site, resource download metrics, page load speeds, and engagement patterns (such as scroll depths or heat-mapping signals) designed to preserve optimal Core Web Vitals health.

4. Purpose & Legal Bases for Data Processing

We do not engage in speculative or unmapped data processing. Every point of data utilization corresponds to a validated legal baseline:

5. Deployed AI Systems & Secure Workflow Disclosures

As a technical consultancy specializing in AI Automation, we maintain strict barriers between client data and generative model training:

  • Zero Model Training on Enterprise Assets: When building automated content models, custom lead routing, or internal databases for your brand, we ensure all API pipelines use strict zero-data-retention parameters. Your proprietary customer interactions and business intelligence data are never shared or used to train public large language models (LLMs).

  • Sandboxed Architectures: Data processed via automated workflows is kept in secure, sandboxed cloud infrastructure with role-based access management to eliminate cross-contamination risk.

6. Enterprise Data Deletion Protocol

If you use our client portals, mobile applications, or interactive consulting dashboards, you have the right to request the total purging of your personal footprints.

1.Request Submission:Step 1.

Email our compliance department at legal@digitalshoutouts.com with the subject line “Data Deletion Request – [Your Name or Business]”.

2.Identity Authentication:Step 2.

Our compliance wing will verify your identity within 72 hours using a secure authentication loop. This prevents unauthorized third parties from maliciously purging your records.

3.Irreversible Purge & Anonymization:Step 3.

Within 30 days of verification, we will permanently erase your data from our active CRMs, marketing lists, and application caches. Any transactional financial history will be completely anonymized, leaving only the records legally required for tax audits.

8. International Data Transfers & Storage Retention

Digital Shoutouts coordinates project workflows from our development and strategy hubs in India. Data collected globally may be securely transferred to and stored on cloud servers located in India or other global nodes managed by our infrastructure partners (such as AWS and Google Cloud).

To protect these cross-border data movements:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs): We use European Commission-approved SCCs with international processors to ensure data protection remains intact outside the EEA.

  • Data Retention Rules: Lead inputs from prospective forms are retained for up to 2 years if no contract is signed. Active client contract data is maintained for the life of the agreement plus an additional 7 years to meet tax and legal record-keeping requirements.
