How We Use Your Information
To respond to inquiries and schedule conversations.
To send insights, updates, and invitations you have opted in to receive.
To understand how the Site is used and improve its content and design.
To measure the effectiveness of our marketing, including on LinkedIn.
To protect the Site against fraud, spam, and security threats.
To comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Use.
We do not sell your personal information for money, and we do not use it to make automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.
How We Share Your Information
We share information only with service providers that help us run the Site and our business, and only for the purposes described here.
We may also disclose information:
when required by law, subpoena, or other legal process;
to protect the rights, property, or safety of ELG, our clients, or others;
in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our business; or
with your consent.
Advertising. Our use of the LinkedIn Insight Tag may be considered "sharing" or "targeted advertising" under some U.S. state privacy laws. You can opt out at any time through Cookie Settings, and we honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signals as an optout.
Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functions, analytics, and advertising. Non-essential cookies (analytics and marketing) load only after you accept them in our cookie banner, and you can change your choice anytime using the Cookie Settings link in the Site footer. Details are in our Cookie Policy.
5. Email Communications
We send marketing emails only to people who opt in. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can also unsubscribe by emailing us. We may still send non-promotional messages related to an inquiry or engagement.
6. How Long We Keep Information
Inquiries: as long as needed to respond and maintain our business relationship, and generally no longer than three years after our last contact.
Email subscribers: until you unsubscribe, after which we keep only what is needed to honor your request.
Analytics data: up to 14 months in Google Analytics; Clarity session replays are retained for about 30 days and heatmap data for up to 13 months, per Microsoft's standard settings.
7. How We Protect Information
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, and we choose providers that maintain recognized security practices. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

unsubscribe from marketing emails;
accept or decline non-essential cookies through Cookie Settings; and
ask us to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you.
