Most businesses choose an IT provider based on price alone — and pay for it later. Get matched based on actual fit. →

Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 22, 2026

Plain English version: We don't run ads, we don't use tracking pixels, and we never sell your information to data brokers or marketing lists. We use Google Analytics to see which tools help — and only after you accept cookies. When you ask to be matched, we review your details, find a provider that fits, and introduce you when you're ready; a provider doesn't get your contact information until that introduction happens. Providers pay us for introductions, which under California law may count as "sharing" or a "sale" — so you can opt out anytime via Your Privacy Choices.

1. What information we collect

When you use our tools: Nothing that identifies you. SerenIT's tools (phishing analyzer, password grader, RFP generator, etc.) do not require registration. The text you enter is sent to our AI processing service to generate a result, and nothing is stored after the response is returned. We do not log, save, or sell your inputs.

When you request matching or contact us: You voluntarily provide details such as your name, business email, company name, company size, location, and what you're looking for. This information is collected only at the time you submit a form, and only with your knowledge that we will use it to match and introduce you to an IT provider.

Automatically collected (only with consent): If you accept analytics cookies, we collect standard analytics data — pages visited, approximate geographic region, device/browser type, and which tools were used — through Google Analytics 4. This data is pseudonymous; we do not use it to build advertising profiles. If you decline, analytics cookies are not set.

2. How we use it

We use the information you submit to review your needs, identify a suitable IT provider, communicate with you about your match, and (with your agreement) introduce you to that provider. We use analytics data to understand which tools are most helpful, identify technical issues, and improve the site.

We do not use your information for third-party advertising, and we do not sell, rent, or broker your personal information to marketing lists or data brokers.

3. When you ask to be matched

SerenIT connects business owners who want IT help with vetted providers. Here is exactly what happens when you submit the matching questionnaire or contact form:

  • Your submission is processed by Formspree (our form provider) and delivered to SerenIT.
  • A real person at SerenIT reviews your details and identifies one or more providers that fit your industry, size, compliance needs, and situation.
  • We follow up with you and, when you're ready, make an introduction. A provider does not receive your contact details until that introduction is made — we do not broadcast your information to multiple vendors.
  • We only work with providers who have agreed to our provider standards.

You can ask us to stop and to delete your information at any time — see Your Privacy Choices.

4. How SerenIT makes money (compensation disclosure)

SerenIT is free for you. We are compensated by IT providers when we introduce them to a potential client. This is our business model, and we disclose it openly so you can weigh it. Because we do not charge you, a provider's willingness to pay does not determine your match — we match on fit.

Because money may change hands in connection with an introduction, this activity may be considered "sharing" or a "sale" of personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA). We treat it conservatively as such and give you the right to opt out at any time — see Your Privacy Choices.

5. Third-party services

We use the following third-party services to operate the site:

  • Google Analytics 4 — website analytics, loaded only after you accept cookies. Google's privacy policy applies.
  • Formspree — form submission processing. Formspree's privacy policy applies to submitted data.
  • Anthropic Claude API — AI processing for our tools. Text submitted to these tools is processed by Anthropic; Anthropic's terms and privacy policy apply.
  • Cloudflare — website hosting and delivery.
  • Google Fonts — web font delivery. Google may log the request.
  • Vetted IT providers — the specific provider we introduce you to, only after the introduction is made.

We do not use advertising networks, social media tracking pixels, session-recording tools, or data brokers.

6. Cookies, analytics & consent

We use cookies only for Google Analytics 4. When you first visit, analytics storage is set to denied by default (Google Consent Mode v2) and no analytics cookies are placed until you choose "Accept" in our cookie banner. If you choose "Reject," analytics cookies are not used.

We honor browser-based opt-out signals: if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) or "Do Not Track" signal, we treat it as an opt-out and do not enable analytics. You can change your choice anytime through Your Privacy Choices or the "Cookie settings" link in the footer.

We do not use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or cross-site tracking.

7. How long we keep information

We keep matching and contact submissions only as long as needed to provide the match and for reasonable follow-up — generally up to 24 months — after which we delete or anonymize them, unless you ask us to delete them sooner. Analytics data is retained according to our Google Analytics configuration (up to 14 months). Tool inputs are not retained.

8. Your privacy rights (including California)

Wherever you live, you can ask us to:

  • Know what personal information we hold about you
  • Access, correct, or delete your personal information
  • Opt out of analytics and of any "sale"/"sharing" of your information
  • Stop further contact from SerenIT

California residents (CCPA/CPRA). You have the right to know, access, delete, and correct your personal information; the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information; and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of anyone under 16. To exercise the opt-out, use Your Privacy Choices below; we also honor Global Privacy Control signals.

We respond to verifiable requests within 45 days (extendable as permitted by law).

9. Your Privacy Choices & opt-out

You can opt out of analytics and of the sharing/sale of your information in two ways:

  • Cookies/analytics: open and choose "Reject," or send a Global Privacy Control signal from your browser.
  • Do not sell or share my personal information: email [email protected] with the subject "Do Not Sell or Share," and we will not pass your information to any provider.

To request access, correction, or deletion, email [email protected].
