This Privacy Policy explains how Bicycle Man LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles visitor information on bicycleman.com (the “Site”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency regarding the limited data we collect.

1. Summary of Our Privacy Practices

• No Marketing Tracking: We do not track you across other websites, serve targeted advertisements, or sell your personal information.
• Respect for Browser Settings: Our Site automatically honors browser privacy preferences, including Global Privacy Control (GPC) and Do Not Track (DNT) signals.
• Minimal Data Collection: We collect anonymous, aggregated traffic statistics to improve our Site and gather personal details only when you voluntarily submit them via our contact forms.

2. Website Traffic Analytics

What We Collect

We use Google Analytics (via Google Site Kit) to understand aggregate website performance, popular pages, visitor locations (country/city level), and device types.

To protect your privacy:

• IP addresses are automatically anonymized.
• Cross-site tracking and ad-personalization features (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization) are permanently disabled.
• We do not build individual visitor profiles.

Google Consent Mode v2 & Browser Signals

Our Site utilizes Google Consent Mode v2 to dynamically adjust tracking based on your browser settings:

• If GPC or DNT is enabled in your browser: Analytics measurement (analytics_storage) is automatically set to denied. No analytics tracking occurs.
• If no opt-out signal is detected: Basic, non-personally identifiable traffic data is processed to help us understand overall Site usage.

3. Contact Form Submissions

What We Collect

When you fill out a contact form on our Site, we may collect:

• Your Name
• Email Address
• Phone Number (if provided)
• Zip Code (if provided)

How We Use Your Personal Information

Information submitted through contact forms is used strictly to respond to your specific inquiry or business request.

• No Marketing Spam: Submitting a contact form will not automatically add your email address to a marketing newsletter or promotional mailing list.
• No Data Selling: We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your contact information with third parties for marketing purposes.
• Data Retention: We retain contact form messages only as long as necessary to fulfill your request or satisfy legal record-keeping requirements.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

We aim to keep cookie usage to an absolute minimum:

• Essential Cookies: We do not place advertising or cross-site tracking cookies on your device.
• Analytics Cookies: If analytics are active (and not blocked by your browser settings), first-party Google Analytics cookies may be placed to distinguish unique site sessions in an aggregated, anonymous format.

5. Third-Party Service Providers

We may use trusted service providers to assist in operating our Site (such as secure web hosting and transactional email delivery for contact forms). These providers are legally obligated to protect your data and are prohibited from using your personal information for any other purpose.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (such as under the GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, or other privacy laws), you have the right to:

• Request access to the personal information you have submitted to us.
• Request the correction or deletion of your personal data.
