This Privacy Policy explains how Web Hosting Services collects, uses, discloses, retains and protects information when you visit webhostingservices.co, use an interactive calculator or contact us through the Site. It also explains the privacy rights and choices that may be available to you.

1. Who We Are

Web Hosting Services (“Web Hosting Services,” “we,” “us” or “our”) operates webhostingservices.co, referred to in this Privacy Policy as the “Site.” The Site and its related calculators, forms, content and communications are collectively referred to as the “Services.”

Contact

Web Hosting Services
Email: support@webhostingservices.co

2. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to:

Visitors who browse the Site
People who use calculators or other interactive tools on the Site
People who request a quote or submit information through an interactive tool
People who contact us through forms, email or other communications

We currently do not offer customer accounts, billing or hosting services directly through this Site. If that changes, we will update this Privacy Policy as appropriate.

3. Information We Collect

We collect information in two primary ways:

Information you provide
Information collected automatically when you use the Site

A. Information You Provide

When you contact us, request information or submit a form, you may provide:

Your name
Your email address
Your phone number
Your company name or business information
Your website address
The content of your message
Any other information you choose to include

B. Calculator and Quote Request Information

You may use our calculators without providing your name, email address or phone number. The numerical inputs used to generate a calculator result are not submitted to Web Hosting Services merely because you calculate a result.

We may collect limited analytics events about calculator use, such as:

The calculator used
The selected calculation period
Whether a particular calculator mode or option was selected
Whether a calculation or quote request was completed

These calculator analytics events are not intended to include the name, email address, phone number or website address entered into a quote request form.

If you request a quote through a calculator, we collect the information you submit. Depending on the calculator and form, this may include:

Your name
Your email address and/or phone number
Your current website address, if provided
The calculator you used
The options and time period you selected
The traffic, conversion, revenue, margin and cost figures you entered
Results recalculated by our server, such as estimated ROI, gross profit, total investment and net gain
The page from which the request was submitted
Submission timing and other limited anti-spam or security information

We may temporarily process an IP address or an identifier derived from an IP address to prevent spam, enforce submission limits and protect the Site. Ordinary server and security logs may also contain an IP address and related request information.

C. Information Collected Automatically

When you visit or interact with the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect:

IP address and approximate location derived from an IP address
Device type, operating system and browser information
Pages viewed and links clicked
Referral URLs
Time spent on pages and general usage behavior
Calculator and interaction events
Access times, errors and security events
Cookie identifiers and similar technology information

D. Sensitive Personal Information

We do not intentionally request or collect sensitive personal information such as government identification numbers, financial account credentials, precise geolocation, medical information or biometric information.

Please do not include sensitive personal information in a calculator, quote request, contact form or email. If you voluntarily provide sensitive information, we will use it only as reasonably necessary to respond, protect the Services or comply with applicable law.

4. How We Use Information

We may use information for the following purposes:

To operate, maintain and secure the Site
To provide calculators and other interactive tools
To generate results requested by users
To respond to inquiries and contact requests
To respond to calculator quote requests
To discuss a potential website, hosting or related project
To prepare and provide a tailored quote
To validate and recalculate submitted calculator results
To maintain records of inquiries and quote requests
To monitor and improve performance, functionality and user experience
To measure calculator usage and improve our tools
To analyze usage trends and understand how visitors use the Site
To detect and prevent automated submissions, spam, fraud, abuse and unauthorized access
To investigate technical errors and security incidents
To comply with legal obligations
To resolve disputes and enforce our policies

We do not use a calculator result as a guarantee of future revenue, profit or business performance. Calculator results are estimates based on the information entered by the user.

5. Legal Bases for Processing Where Applicable

If laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation or similar rules apply, our legal bases for processing may include:

Legitimate interests: Operating the Site, providing calculators, responding to inquiries, improving performance, preventing abuse and maintaining security
Taking steps at your request before entering into a contract: Discussing a project, evaluating a request and preparing a quote
Consent: Where consent is required, such as for certain cookies or optional communications
Legal obligations: Complying with applicable laws, regulations, court orders and lawful requests

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent subject to applicable law. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.

6. Cookies, Analytics and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for functionality, security, performance and analytics. A cookie is a small file stored on a device that can help a website remember information or understand how the website is used.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand website traffic, calculator use and general interaction with the Site. Google Analytics may use cookies, device identifiers and similar technologies to collect information such as:

Pages viewed
Events completed
Time spent on the Site
Device and browser information
Referring pages
Approximate location derived from an IP address

Google Analytics may process IP addresses during data collection to derive approximate location and perform service, routing, spam-prevention or security functions. Google states that raw IP addresses are discarded after use and are not logged as ordinary Google Analytics 4 report data.

The information Google collects and how it may be used can depend on our Analytics settings, consent controls and whether Analytics is linked to other Google services.

Google provides a browser add-on that may allow you to limit Google Analytics collection:

Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on

Cookie Controls

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. You may also be presented with consent or preference controls where required. Disabling cookies may affect certain Site functions or the accuracy of analytics reporting.

Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. There is no universally accepted standard for responding to these signals. We respond to legally recognized browser-based opt-out signals where required and technically supported.

7. How We Disclose Information

We do not sell personal information for money.

We may disclose information in the following circumstances:

A. Service Providers and Vendors

We may provide information to service providers that help us operate and protect the Site, communicate with visitors or analyze Site usage. These may include:

Website hosting and infrastructure providers
Content delivery network and security providers
WordPress administration, database and backup providers
Email delivery and business communication providers
Analytics providers, including Google Analytics
Technical support, maintenance and development providers

These providers may process information only as reasonably necessary to provide services to us, subject to their agreements, policies and applicable law.

B. Legal, Safety and Compliance

We may disclose information if we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to:

Comply with a law, regulation, court order or legal process
Respond to a lawful request from a public authority
Protect the rights, safety or security of visitors, our business or the public
Detect, investigate or prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents or unlawful activity
Enforce our policies and agreements
Establish, exercise or defend a legal claim

C. Business Transfers

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, asset sale or similar transaction, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

D. At Your Direction

We may disclose information when you request or direct us to do so.

E. Aggregated or De-identified Information

We may use or disclose aggregated or de-identified information that cannot reasonably be used to identify you, subject to applicable law.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. These purposes may include responding to requests, preparing quotes, maintaining appropriate business records, protecting the Site, meeting legal obligations, resolving disputes and enforcing our policies.

Calculator Use Without a Quote Request

Using a calculator without requesting a quote does not create a calculator lead record containing your numerical calculator inputs.

Limited calculator analytics events may be retained according to the settings and retention periods configured for our analytics systems.

Calculator Quote Requests

When you request a quote through a calculator, the submitted contact information, website information, calculator inputs and server-calculated results may be:

Stored as a private lead record in our website administration system
Delivered to our business email so we can respond to the request

We generally retain the private lead record stored on the Site for up to 730 days from submission unless:

You request deletion and no legal or operational exception permits continued retention
A shorter period is appropriate because the information is no longer needed
A longer period is required by law or reasonably necessary for a dispute, investigation, security matter or legal claim

Copies delivered to our business email may be retained under a separate business email retention schedule for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the request, discuss a project, prepare a quote, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes or comply with legal obligations.

Temporary Security and Technical Records

Temporary anti-spam and rate-limiting records are generally retained only briefly. Server, security, analytics and backup records may follow separate retention schedules based on their purpose and the settings of the systems involved.

At the end of an applicable retention period, we delete, aggregate or de-identify information where reasonably practicable. You may request deletion as described in Section 10.

9. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against accidental loss, unauthorized access, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

These safeguards may include access restrictions, private lead records, input validation, anti-spam controls, rate limiting, security monitoring and restricted administrative permissions.

No method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Your Privacy Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live and subject to applicable exceptions, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:

Request access to personal information we hold about you
Request a copy of certain personal information
Request deletion of personal information
Request correction of inaccurate personal information
Object to or restrict certain processing
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
Request information about categories of information collected, used or disclosed
Opt out of certain sales, sharing or targeted advertising where applicable
Appeal a decision concerning a privacy request where applicable
Receive equal service and pricing without unlawful discrimination for exercising a privacy right

How to Submit a Request

Please include:

The email address or phone number you used to contact us, if applicable

We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. Verification may require confirming information associated with your prior interaction with us.

You may use an authorized agent where permitted by law. We may request evidence that the agent is authorized to act on your behalf and may also ask you to verify your identity directly.

We will respond within the period required by applicable law. Certain information may be exempt from a request, such as information we must retain for legal, security, fraud-prevention or recordkeeping purposes.
