Groundworx (“we,” “our,” “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to groundworx.dev and any pages we operate.
Information We Collect
Information you provide: name, email, phone, company, website, and any message content you submit via forms or email.
Technical/usage data: IP address, device/browser info, pages viewed, and interactions collected via cookies, tags, and pixels.
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tech to operate the site, understand performance, and improve marketing. You can control cookies in your browser settings and via the links in Your Choices below.
Google Tag Manager (GTM)
GTM helps us deploy and manage tags (e.g., Analytics, pixels). GTM itself doesn’t collect personal data; it loads other tags that may do so.
Google Analytics (GA4)
We use GA4 to measure traffic and usage. GA4 may collect IP, device, and event data. We’ve configured GA4 to respect regional consent where applicable and to limit data retention to business needs.

reCAPTCHA
We use Google reCAPTCHA on our forms to protect against spam and abuse. reCAPTCHA analyzes interactions to confirm whether the visitor is human. This process may collect information such as IP address, browser and device details, and interaction patterns. The use of reCAPTCHA is subject to Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
Meta (Facebook) Pixel
Used to understand site activity and the effectiveness of our content/ads on Facebook/Instagram, and to build audiences for ads. Meta may combine this with its own data.
