Privacy Policy
What we collect, why we collect it, and what we do with it.
Last updated: August 2026
SCM Partners ("SCM Partners," "we," "us," "our") operates www.scmpartners.net. This policy explains how we handle information collected through this website and in the course of providing our services.
1. Information We Collect
Information you give us
When you submit a form, email us or call us, we collect what you choose to provide — typically your name, email address, phone number, business name, the nature of your inquiry, and whatever you write in your message. If you become a client, we may collect additional business information necessary to perform the engagement.
Please do not send Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, full dates of birth or similar sensitive identifiers through this website's forms or by unencrypted email. If an engagement requires such information, we will arrange a secure method.
Information collected automatically
Our web host records standard server log data such as IP address, browser type, referring page, pages viewed and timestamps. We may use basic analytics to understand aggregate site usage. We do not use this information to identify individual visitors.
2. How We Use Information
- To respond to your inquiry and communicate with you about it;
- To provide, perform and improve our consulting, coaching, educational and related services;
- To prepare and, with your authorization, present information to third-party funding sources or vendors on your behalf;
- To send service-related communications, and marketing communications where you have consented (you can opt out at any time);
- To maintain records, and to comply with legal, regulatory and contractual obligations.
3. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information.
We share information only in these circumstances:
- With your authorization. For example, when you ask us to present your file to a lender, funding source or vendor. We will not submit your information to a third-party funding source without your consent.
- With service providers. Vendors who support our operations — web hosting, email delivery, document handling — who are permitted to use the information only to provide those services to us.
- For legal reasons. Where required by law, subpoena or legal process, or where necessary to protect our rights, safety or property.
- In a business transfer. In connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, subject to this policy.
4. Cookies
This website uses only the cookies necessary for it to function and, where enabled, basic analytics cookies. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies through their settings; doing so may affect some site functionality.
5. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect the information we hold. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You transmit information to us at your own risk.
6. Data Retention
We retain inquiry and client information for as long as needed to respond to you, perform services, and meet legal, tax and recordkeeping obligations, after which it is deleted or de-identified.
7. Your Choices and Rights
- Access and correction. You may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you, or ask us to correct it.
- Deletion. You may request deletion of your information, subject to our legal and recordkeeping obligations.
- Marketing opt-out. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in any such message, or by writing to us.
- Communication preferences. You may ask us to stop contacting you by phone or text at any time.
Residents of certain states may have additional rights under applicable state privacy law. To exercise any right, write to info@scmpartners.net. We will verify your request before acting on it.
8. Text Messaging
If you provide a mobile number and consent to be contacted, we may send you text messages related to your inquiry or engagement. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out at any time; reply HELP for assistance. Consent to receive texts is not a condition of any purchase or service.
9. Children
This website and our services are directed to adults and are not intended for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10. Third-Party Sites
This site may link to third-party websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, and this policy does not apply to them. Review their policies before providing information.
