Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy
Effective and last updated: July 22, 2026
Harris Court HR & Finance Consulting ("Harris Court," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you visit harriscourtconsulting.com, submit a consultation request, subscribe to our newsletter, schedule an appointment, make a payment, or otherwise communicate with us (collectively, the "Services").
This Policy applies to information collected through the Website and related business communications. A separate client agreement or notice may apply to information Harris Court processes while providing services to a client, including information the client provides about its employees, contractors, customers, or vendors.
1. Information We Collect
Information You Provide
Contact and identity information, such as your name, business name, job title, email address, telephone number, and mailing address if provided.
Inquiry and consultation information, including your selected services, business needs, preferred appointment times, messages, and communications.
Newsletter information, such as your email address, subscription preferences, and engagement with our communications.
Appointment information submitted through a scheduling service.
Transaction and billing information, such as billing contact details, invoice information, payment status, and transaction records. Payment credentials submitted through QuickBooks or another payment processor are handled by that provider; Harris Court generally does not receive complete card numbers or bank-login credentials.
Other information you voluntarily provide.
Information Collected Automatically
Device and technical information, such as IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, language, and approximate location derived from IP address.
Usage information, such as pages viewed, referring pages, dates and times of visits, links clicked, session activity, and interactions with forms or emails.
Cookie and similar-technology information used to operate the Website, remember preferences, understand performance, prevent abuse, and measure engagement.
Please do not submit Social Security numbers, bank credentials, payment-card details, medical information, payroll files, personnel records, employee complaints, tax returns, or other sensitive or confidential records through a general Website form or ordinary email. Contact us first so we can determine whether an appropriate secure method is available.
2. How We Use Information
Respond to inquiries and evaluate potential engagements.
Provide, administer, personalize, and improve the Website and Services.
Schedule appointments and communicate about requests, transactions, and services.
Prepare and manage proposals, agreements, invoices, payments, and business records.
Send newsletters and marketing communications where permitted; you may unsubscribe at any time.
Measure Website and communication performance and understand audience interests.
Maintain security, detect fraud or misuse, troubleshoot, and protect legal rights.
Comply with law, legal process, tax, accounting, insurance, and recordkeeping obligations.
Carry out other purposes disclosed when information is collected or with your consent.
3. Cookies and Analytics
The Website is hosted or built using Wix and may use essential cookies required for security, network management, accessibility, and core functionality. With your choices where required, Wix, Google Analytics, or similar providers may also use cookies or related technologies to measure traffic and Website performance.
You can control cookies through any cookie-preference tool displayed on the Website and through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect Website functionality. We do not currently state that we use advertising or retargeting pixels. If we enable them later, we will update this Policy and provide any legally required choices before or when they are used.
Some browsers transmit Do Not Track signals. Because there is not a universally accepted standard for responding to those signals, the Website may not respond to them. To the extent applicable law requires recognition of an opt-out preference signal, such as Global Privacy Control, we will process supported signals as required.
4. How We Disclose Information
We may disclose personal information to:
Service providers that support Website hosting, analytics, email delivery, communications, scheduling, payment processing, accounting, information technology, security, and professional services. These may include Wix, Google Analytics, QuickBooks/Intuit, and providers selected for email or scheduling.
Professional advisers, such as attorneys, accountants, insurers, and auditors, when reasonably necessary.
Government agencies, courts, law enforcement, or other parties when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, and security.
A buyer, successor, lender, or adviser involved in a merger, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards.
Other parties at your direction or with your consent.
We do not sell personal information for money. We do not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. Analytics providers may receive online identifiers and activity information as described above. If our practices change in a way that constitutes a sale or sharing under applicable California law, we will update our disclosures and provide required opt-out mechanisms.
5. California Privacy Rights
California residents may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively, the "CCPA"), if and when the CCPA applies to Harris Court. These rights may include the right to:
Know the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected, used, disclosed, sold, or shared.
Request deletion of personal information, subject to legal exceptions.
Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.
Limit certain uses and disclosures of sensitive personal information.
Receive equal service and not be discriminated against for exercising privacy rights.
To submit a request, email contactus@harriscourtconsulting.com with the subject line "California Privacy Request." Describe the request and provide enough information for us to reasonably verify your identity and locate relevant records. We will use verification information only to process the request. An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, but we may require proof of authorization and identity verification.
These rights are not absolute. We may deny or limit a request where permitted by law, including when an exception applies or we cannot reasonably verify the request. Even if Harris Court is not legally subject to every CCPA requirement, we will consider reasonable privacy requests in good faith.
6. California Online Privacy Protection Act Notice
Consistent with California's online privacy requirements, this Policy identifies the categories of personal information we collect, the categories of parties with whom information may be disclosed, the process for reviewing certain information, and how we communicate material changes. You may request review or correction of personal information you submitted by emailing contactus@harriscourtconsulting.com. We may need to retain some information for legal, security, billing, and recordkeeping purposes.
7. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining business and transaction records, providing services, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and complying with legal, tax, accounting, and insurance obligations. Retention periods vary based on the nature and sensitivity of the information, the relationship, and applicable requirements.
8. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information we maintain. No website, email system, transmission, or storage method is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for using appropriate caution when sending information online.
9. Email and Newsletter Choices
You may unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe link in the message or by emailing contactus@harriscourtconsulting.com. We may continue sending non-marketing messages relating to your inquiry, appointment, transaction, security, legal notices, or active engagement.
10. Children's Privacy
The Website is intended for business users and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the Website. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can take appropriate action.
11. Third-Party Websites and Services
The Website may link to or integrate with third-party websites and services, including Wix, analytics, scheduling, newsletter, and payment providers. Their privacy practices are governed by their own notices, not this Policy. We encourage you to review them.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy as our services, technology, vendors, or legal obligations change. We will post the revised version with an updated date. If required by law, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent before a material change takes effect.
