Privacy
Privacy Policy
What happens to information entered into Brandspire tools, what technical information may be processed, how optional Google Analytics works, and how advertising disclosures will change when ads are activated.
Browser tools
Tool inputs stay in the browser for the current tools.
The UTM builder, color contrast checker, and manual Open Graph preview run in your browser. The values you type into them are not submitted to a Brandspire server by those tools. Generated results remain in the open page unless you copy or share them yourself.
Messages
Contact messages are processed by email providers.
The contact link opens your own email application. If you choose to email Brandspire, your email provider and ours process your message, address, and any details you include. Do not send passwords, private keys, access tokens, or other sensitive information.
Hosting
Basic technical request data may be processed to deliver and secure the site.
Like most websites, hosting and network providers may process information such as IP address, requested URL, time, browser information, and error details to deliver, protect, and troubleshoot the site. Exact retention depends on the production services in use.
Optional measurement
Google Analytics loads only after you allow analytics.
Brandspire uses Google Analytics 4 with measurement ID G-ZW9SNV21ZK to understand aggregate usage such as page visits, sessions, browser and device information, approximate location, and which guides or tools are being used. The Analytics tag is not loaded until you choose “Allow analytics” in the site preference banner.
When Analytics is allowed, Google Analytics may set first-party cookies such as _ga and _ga_<container-id> to distinguish users and maintain session state. Brandspire configures advertising-related consent as denied in this analytics-only setup and does not enable Google signals through the page configuration.
Google states that Google Analytics uses IP addresses during collection for functions such as coarse geolocation and routing and does not log or store raw IP addresses in Google Analytics reporting. More detail is available in Google's Analytics privacy documentation.
Use “Cookie settings” in the footer to allow or turn off optional analytics. Turning analytics off also attempts to remove Brandspire's existing Google Analytics first-party cookies from your browser.
Advertising
Brandspire is preparing for advertising, but AdSense ad code is not currently enabled by this application.
Brandspire publishes an ads.txt authorization file for its Google publisher account. That file identifies authorized advertising inventory sellers; it does not itself place ads, set advertising cookies, or mean that a visitor is being shown an ad.
If Google AdSense or another advertising service is activated, this policy and the Cookie Policy will be updated to identify the active advertising technology and applicable consent choices. Where Google requires a certified consent management platform for publisher advertising, Brandspire will use an appropriate certified solution before serving affected personalized ads.
Visitors can manage Google advertising personalization through Google My Ad Center when Google advertising services are relevant to their activity.
Your choices
You can use the publication without accepting optional analytics.
You can keep analytics off, change your analytics preference later, clear browser data, avoid entering information into a tool, and choose whether to email us. For a privacy question or request concerning a message you sent, use the address on the contact page. You can also review the Cookie Policy.
