Where consent is legally required, we will request it separately. This Policy does not replace any additional consent or disclosures required for particular services or communications.

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through our website, business communications, and services, subject to applicable laws and any additional notices provided at the point of collection.

Please do not submit sensitive personal information through general website forms unless it is specifically requested and an appropriate collection method is provided.

We use this information for legitimate business purposes, including responding to inquiries and identifying potential business relationships.

3. How We Use Information

We do not use personal information for purposes materially incompatible with the purposes described in this Policy without providing any notice or obtaining consent required by applicable law.

4. SMS and Text Messaging Privacy

This section explains how Tariq Global Ventures LLC handles information associated with SMS and text messaging.

4.1 Text Message Consent

If you provide your mobile number and affirmatively opt in to receive text messages from us, we may use that number to send the types of messages described in the applicable opt-in disclosure. These may include responses to inquiries, appointment or consultation coordination, service-related updates, customer support communications, or marketing messages if you have separately consented where required.

Providing your phone number does not, by itself, constitute consent to receive marketing text messages. We will use the consent method and disclosures applicable to the messaging program.

Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing goods or services from us.

4.2 Mobile Information and SMS Consent Will Not Be Shared for Third-Party Marketing

We do not sell, rent, or share mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in data, or text messaging consent information with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

We may share information with service providers that help us operate and administer our messaging program, such as messaging platforms, telecommunications providers, and technical support vendors. These providers may use the information only as needed to provide services on our behalf and subject to appropriate restrictions.

We may also disclose information when required by law, in response to valid legal process, to protect our rights or safety, or as otherwise permitted by applicable law. Such disclosures do not authorize third parties to use SMS consent data for their own marketing.

4.3 Message Frequency and Charges

Message frequency will vary depending on your interactions with us and the messaging program to which you have subscribed. Message and data rates may apply according to your mobile carrier plan. Your wireless carrier is not responsible for delayed or undelivered messages.

4.4 How to Opt Out

You may opt out of receiving text messages by replying STOP to a message from us, where supported. After your opt-out request is processed, we will stop sending the applicable messages, except for any limited communication permitted by law or necessary to confirm your request.

If you need assistance, reply HELP where supported or contact us using the contact information provided at the end of this Policy.

If you have subscribed to more than one separate messaging program, you may need to opt out of each program individually.

4.5 Changes to Your Messaging Preferences

You may contact us to ask questions about your messaging preferences or request assistance. We may retain records of consent, opt-out requests, and related communications to administer the messaging program, demonstrate compliance, and honor your preferences.

We will not use an opt-out request as permission to continue sending marketing text messages.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to support essential functionality, remember preferences, understand website usage, and improve performance.

• Essential cookies: Help the website function properly and maintain security.
• Preference cookies: Remember certain user choices.
• Analytics technologies: Help us understand how visitors use the website.
• Advertising technologies: Where implemented, may help measure advertising performance or support relevant advertising.

The actual cookies and technologies used depend on our website configuration and the services enabled.

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality. Where required by law, we will provide appropriate notice and consent choices for non-essential cookies or similar technologies.

6. How We Share Information

6.1 Service Providers

We may share information with vendors and service providers that perform functions on our behalf, such as website hosting, customer relationship management, email delivery, telecommunications, SMS messaging, analytics, security, technical support, and business administration.

These providers receive only the information reasonably needed to perform their assigned functions and are expected to protect it and use it in accordance with applicable agreements and law.

6.2 Business Partners and Client Engagements

We may share relevant information with a business partner or client when necessary to fulfill a request, deliver an agreed service, or carry out a transaction that you have authorized or that is otherwise permitted by law.

We do not authorize these parties to use SMS opt-in data or messaging consent information for their own marketing.

6.3 Legal and Safety Requirements

We may disclose information when we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law, a court order, or valid legal process; enforce our agreements; investigate fraud or security incidents; or protect the rights, property, or safety of TGV, our customers, or others.

6.4 Business Transfers

If our business is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar transaction, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable legal requirements and appropriate safeguards.

6.5 With Your Consent

We may disclose information for another purpose when you have directed us to do so or provided consent where required.

6.6 No Sale of Personal Information for Monetary Consideration

We do not sell personal information for monetary consideration. If our use of certain advertising or analytics technologies is considered "sharing," targeted advertising, or a sale under an applicable privacy law, we will provide any required disclosures and choices.

7. Third-Party Services and AI-Based Tools

We may use third-party software and platforms to manage business operations, communicate with customers, analyze website performance, provide customer support, and deliver digital or automation services.

Some tools may incorporate artificial intelligence or automated processing. Information submitted to these tools may be processed by the relevant provider to perform the requested function, subject to the provider's terms, our contractual arrangements, and applicable law.

We take reasonable steps to use appropriate service providers and limit information to what is necessary for the relevant business purpose. However, third-party services operate under their own terms and privacy policies.

We do not represent that every third-party provider has identical privacy practices. You should review the applicable provider's privacy documentation where relevant.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including providing services, maintaining business records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, meeting legal obligations, and documenting communication preferences.

Retention periods depend on the type of information, the nature of our relationship with you, applicable legal requirements, and legitimate business needs.

We may retain limited records of SMS consent and opt-out requests to ensure that messaging preferences are respected and to maintain compliance records.

When information is no longer reasonably necessary, we will take appropriate steps to delete it, destroy it, or de-identify it, subject to applicable law and legitimate recordkeeping requirements.

9. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or misuse.

No website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If a security incident involving personal information occurs, we will assess and respond to it in accordance with applicable law, including any applicable notification obligations.

10. Privacy Rights and Choices

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights concerning your personal information. These may include the right to:

• Request access to personal information we hold about you.
• Request correction of inaccurate information.
• Request deletion of certain personal information.
• Obtain a copy of certain information in a portable format.
• Opt out of certain targeted advertising, sale, or sharing activities where applicable.
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
• Appeal certain privacy decisions where applicable.
• Avoid unlawful discrimination for exercising applicable privacy rights.

These rights are subject to legal limitations, verification requirements, and applicable exceptions.

To submit a privacy request, contact us using the contact information at the end of this Policy. We may need to verify your identity and the legitimacy of your request before responding. We will handle requests within the timeframes required by applicable law.

11. Missouri Residents and Data Breach Notices

Tariq Global Ventures LLC is organized in Missouri. We handle personal information in accordance with applicable federal and state laws.

Where Missouri's data breach notification law or another applicable law requires notification following a qualifying security breach, we will provide notice in the manner and timeframe required by law, subject to applicable exceptions.

Being organized in Missouri does not mean every privacy law applies only to Missouri residents. Other state or federal requirements may apply depending on the individuals involved, the information processed, and the nature of our activities.

12. Children's Privacy

Our website and business services are intended for businesses and adults. They are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us so we can review the matter and take appropriate action, including deletion where required by law.

13. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to websites, platforms, or services operated by third parties. We do not control those third parties and are not responsible for their privacy practices, content, or security.

When you leave our website, we encourage you to review the privacy policy of the destination website or service.

14. Email and Other Communications

If you contact us by email or through a website form, we may use your information to respond to your inquiry, provide requested information, manage a business relationship, or communicate about our services.

Where permitted by law, we may send business updates or marketing emails. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe mechanism included in the message or by contacting us.

Unsubscribing from marketing communications will not necessarily stop essential administrative or service-related communications associated with an existing business relationship.

15. International Processing

Our website visitors, customers, service providers, or business operations may be located in different countries. As a result, personal information may be processed or stored in a country other than the country in which it was collected, subject to applicable law.

Where required, we will take appropriate measures for cross-border transfers and processing of personal information.

16. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our business practices, website functionality, messaging programs, technology, or applicable legal requirements.

When we make changes, we will publish the revised Policy on this page and update the effective date when appropriate. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent for material changes.
