Watermelon Web Works, LLC respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our website, client portal, contact forms, and related services, and how we use and protect that information.
This policy applies to watermelonwebworks.com and related Watermelon Web Works websites, forms, and client-facing systems.
Information We Collect
We collect information in a few basic ways.
Information You Provide to Us
When you contact us, request a quote, submit a support request, become a client, pay an invoice, or communicate with us, we may collect information such as:
- Your name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Company or organization name
- Website URL
- Billing or account information
- Project details
- Messages, support requests, and other information you choose to provide
We use this information to respond to you, provide services, manage projects, process billing, and support our clients.
Website and Security Information
Like most websites, our systems may automatically collect limited technical information when you visit our website, such as:
- IP address
- Browser and device information
- Pages visited
- Referring website
- Date and time of visit
- Basic server logs and security logs
We use this information to maintain website security, diagnose technical issues, prevent abuse, and understand general website activity.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website may use cookies or similar technologies for basic site functionality, security, analytics, or user experience.
We do not use cookies to sell your personal information. We also do not intentionally share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
If we use non-essential analytics, advertising, embedded media, or third-party tracking technologies, we will work to disclose those tools appropriately and, where needed, provide choices regarding their use.
Embedded Content and Third-Party Services
Some pages may include embedded content or links from third-party services, such as videos, maps, reviews, social media platforms, payment processors, scheduling tools, analytics providers, spam-prevention tools, or client portal systems.
Third-party services may collect information according to their own privacy policies. We do not control the privacy practices of those third parties.
Where practical, we limit unnecessary third-party tracking and avoid loading non-essential third-party tracking technologies unless they are needed for a legitimate business purpose.
How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Respond to inquiries
- Provide website, hosting, development, maintenance, and support services
- Manage client accounts and projects
- Process billing and payments
- Improve our website and services
- Protect our systems from spam, abuse, security threats, and fraud
- Comply with legal, accounting, and contractual obligations
How We Share Information
We do not sell personal information.
We may share information with trusted service providers when needed to operate our business, such as hosting providers, email systems, payment processors, project management tools, spam-prevention tools, security services, analytics services, and professional advisors.
We may also disclose information if required by law, legal process, or to protect our rights, clients, systems, or business.
Client Websites and Services
Watermelon Web Works provides website design, development, hosting, maintenance, and related technical services for clients.
When we work on a client’s website or systems, we may process information on behalf of that client. In those cases, the client is generally responsible for its own privacy policy, legal compliance obligations, and instructions regarding how personal information should be collected, used, retained, or deleted.
We provide technical implementation and support, but we do not provide legal advice or certify legal compliance with privacy laws.
Data Retention
We keep information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to provide services, manage client relationships, maintain business records, resolve disputes, and comply with legal or accounting obligations.
Contact form submissions and support communications may be retained for business and service history purposes unless deletion is requested and we are legally or contractually able to delete them.
Your Choices
You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information that we maintain about you, subject to legal, contractual, security, and business recordkeeping requirements.
You may also ask us to stop sending non-essential communications.
California Privacy Notice
Depending on the nature of your relationship with us and applicable law, California residents may have certain privacy rights regarding access, correction, deletion, portability, and opting out of the sale or sharing of personal information.
Watermelon Web Works does not sell personal information and does not intentionally share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Where legally required and technically feasible, we will honor applicable browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control.

Our website and services are intended for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. However, no website, hosting environment, email system, or internet transmission is completely secure.
