Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 25, 2026
The Local Line respects the privacy of the people who visit this website, submit an inquiry, register for an event, purchase an offering, or otherwise choose to share information.
This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected through the-local-line.com, why it may be used, and the choices available to visitors.
INFORMATION THE LOCAL LINE MAY COLLECT
The Local Line may collect information that a visitor voluntarily provides, including:
• Name
• Email address

• Business or organization name
• Information submitted through contact, inquiry, registration, or project forms
• Communication preferences
• Account information, if member features are used
• Order, billing, and transaction details
• Files, messages, or other materials voluntarily submitted in connection with a service or project
Please avoid submitting sensitive personal information through a general website form unless it is specifically requested and necessary.

• IP address
• Browser and device type
• General location information
• Pages visited and actions taken on the site
• Referral source
• Date, time, and duration of a visit
• Cookie and consent preferences
This information helps keep the website working, understand how visitors use it, identify technical problems, and improve the overall experience.
HOW INFORMATION MAY BE USED
The Local Line may use personal information to:
• Respond to questions and inquiries
• Provide requested services, products, resources, or event information
• Manage registrations, orders, payments, and accounts
• Communicate about an active or potential project
• Send updates or marketing emails when permission has been given

PAYMENTS
If a purchase is made through the website, payment information may be collected and processed by Wix Payments or another connected payment provider.
The Local Line does not directly receive or store complete payment-card numbers. Payment providers process that information according to their own privacy policies and security practices.
COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
This website uses cookies and similar technologies. Some cookies are necessary for security, site navigation, account features, purchases, and other core functions. Others may support analytics, preferences, embedded content, or marketing.
Visitors can use the website’s cookie banner to accept or decline nonessential cookies where that option is available. Cookie preferences can also be managed through browser settings, although disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of the website work.
The site may not respond to every “Do Not Track” browser signal because there is no consistent industry standard for those signals. Where required by applicable law and supported by the website’s tools, recognized opt-out signals such as Global Privacy Control may be honored.
WIX AND OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS
This website is hosted through Wix.com. Wix provides the platform, data storage, forms, analytics, account features, commerce tools, and other services that allow the website to operate.
Personal information may also be processed by trusted providers that support functions such as:
• Website hosting and security
• Email communication
• Scheduling and event registration
• Payment processing
• Analytics and site performance
• Customer and project management
• File storage
• Embedded social media or video content
These providers may access information only as needed to perform their services or meet legal obligations. Their handling of information is also governed by their own privacy policies.
THIRD-PARTY LINKS AND EMBEDDED CONTENT
The website may contain links to or content from outside platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, scheduling services, payment services, or event tools.
Those platforms may collect information when their content is viewed or used, particularly if the visitor is already signed into an account with that platform. The Local Line does not control the privacy practices of outside websites or services. Visitors should review the privacy policy of any outside platform they choose to use.
WHEN INFORMATION MAY BE DISCLOSED
The Local Line does not sell personal information for money.
Information may be disclosed:
• To service providers that help operate the website or deliver a requested service
• When a visitor asks or gives permission
• When reasonably necessary to complete a transaction or registration
• When required by law, court order, or a valid government request
• When necessary to protect the website, The Local Line, a client, or another person from fraud, misuse, or harm
• In connection with a future sale, transfer, or restructuring of the business, subject to applicable privacy requirements
The Local Line does not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. If the website’s advertising or tracking practices change, this policy and the site’s privacy controls will be updated.
HOW LONG INFORMATION IS KEPT
Personal information is kept only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including providing services, maintaining business and tax records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and meeting legal obligations.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected. Information that is no longer needed may be deleted, anonymized, or securely archived.
DATA SECURITY
Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure.
No website, storage platform, or online transmission can be guaranteed completely secure. Visitors should use care when deciding what information to send online.
