Brickell Business Partners (“BBP,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects the confidentiality of personal and business information entrusted to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect personal information in connection with our websites, communications, consultations, business-formation coordination, corporate-infrastructure and virtual-office offerings, business advisory work, brand and digital-development services, marketing and launch services, and related activities (collectively, the “Services”).
1. Scope and Our Role
This Policy applies when BBP determines why and how personal information is processed, including information submitted through this website, during consultations, and in connection with prospective or active client relationships.
For certain engagements, BBP may process information solely on behalf of a client under a written agreement. In that capacity, the client controls the information and its privacy notice governs the underlying processing. Requests concerning client-controlled information may be referred to that client.
This Policy does not govern independent third parties, government agencies, financial institutions, payment processors, registered agents, mail carriers, hosting providers, professional advisers, or other organizations whose services or websites are governed by their own notices.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information you provide
Depending on the relationship and Services requested, we may collect:
- Identity and contact information: name, title, employer, mailing address, business address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, signature, and authorized-representative information.
- Business and formation information: proposed and existing entity names, jurisdiction, ownership and management information, capitalization details, business purpose, industry, licenses, organizational documents, tax-identification information, filing instructions, beneficial-owner information, and supporting records.
- Verification and sensitive information: government-issued identification, taxpayer or national identification numbers, authentication information, and other information reasonably required by law, government filing systems, regulated providers, financial institutions, or fraud-prevention procedures. We request such information only when reasonably necessary for a legitimate purpose.
- Financial and transaction information: billing address, invoices, payment status, transaction details, refund information, and limited payment-related information. Full card information is ordinarily collected and processed by the applicable payment processor rather than BBP.
- Virtual-office and mail information: postal authorization records, sender and recipient details, envelope images, mail metadata, forwarding instructions, delivery records, and, when expressly authorized and operationally supported, scanned mail contents.
- Project and advisory information: business plans, strategies, market information, branding materials, technical requirements, credentials supplied for approved integrations, documents, messages, files, feedback, and other project content.
- Communications: consultation requests, emails, telephone or video-call details, customer-support records, survey responses, preferences, and records of consent.
- Applicant and workforce information: resumes, employment history, education, references, and other information submitted for employment or contracting opportunities.
2.2 Information collected automatically
When you use our website, our hosting and technology providers may automatically receive device and network information such as Internet Protocol address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, referring and exit pages, timestamps, pages viewed, link interactions, general location inferred from network information, and diagnostic or security logs.
2.3 Information we ask you not to send through ordinary forms
Do not submit passwords, complete payment-card numbers, private cryptographic keys, highly sensitive identification documents, or other sensitive materials through a general contact form or unencrypted email. We will provide an approved method when sensitive information is legitimately required.
3. Sources of Information
We may obtain personal information directly from you; from your employer, business, co-owner, authorized representative, adviser, or referral source; from service providers and business partners; from government registries and other lawful public sources; from communications and transactions with us; and automatically from devices and website activity.
If you provide information about another person, you represent that you have authority to do so and that you have provided any notice or obtained any consent required by law.
4. How and Why We Use Information
We use personal information as reasonably necessary to:
- respond to inquiries, evaluate potential engagements, and communicate with you;
- verify identity, authority, eligibility, and instructions;
- prepare, coordinate, administer, and support requested Services;
- submit or facilitate authorized filings, registrations, applications, payments, mail handling, vendor orders, and related transactions;
- manage client relationships, projects, accounts, records, invoices, payments, and support;
- develop websites, applications, brands, campaigns, business models, plans, and other deliverables;
- personalize and improve Services, website usability, operations, and client experience;
- maintain quality, security, audit trails, business continuity, backup, and fraud-prevention controls;
- protect BBP, clients, users, third parties, and the public; enforce agreements; establish, exercise, or defend legal claims; and investigate misuse;
- comply with laws, regulations, court orders, government requests, professional obligations, sanctions, recordkeeping rules, and lawful process;
- complete a merger, financing, acquisition, reorganization, sale, diligence process, or other corporate transaction subject to appropriate confidentiality and legal safeguards; and
- send service communications and, where permitted, information about relevant BBP offerings. You may opt out of marketing email without affecting transactional communications.
Legal bases for certain international processing
Where a law requires a legal basis, we process information as necessary to take requested pre-contract steps or perform a contract; comply with legal obligations; pursue legitimate interests such as operating, securing, improving, and protecting our business and Services, balanced against applicable rights; protect vital interests; or act with consent. Consent may be withdrawn prospectively where consent is the applicable basis.
5. How We Disclose Information
We may disclose information only as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including to:
- Service providers: website hosts, cloud and software providers, communications providers, payment processors, cybersecurity providers, analytics providers, records-management vendors, couriers, and other contractors operating under applicable obligations.
- Formation and operational providers: government agencies, filing offices, registered agents, virtual-office operators, mail carriers, domain registrars, financial institutions, insurers, licensing providers, and vendors selected or authorized for an engagement.
- Professional advisers: attorneys, accountants, auditors, insurers, investigators, and consultants when reasonably necessary.
- Clients and authorized parties: the client organization, its authorized personnel, representatives, co-owners, and advisers as appropriate to an engagement.
- Authorities and protected parties: courts, regulators, law enforcement, government bodies, and other persons when we reasonably believe disclosure is required or permitted by law, necessary to protect rights or safety, or appropriate to address fraud, security, or misuse.
- Transaction participants: prospective or actual acquirers, investors, lenders, counterparties, and advisers in connection with a corporate transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards.
Sale, sharing, and targeted advertising
BBP does not sell personal information for monetary consideration. As the website is currently configured, BBP does not use personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising based on activity across unaffiliated websites. If BBP introduces practices legally treated as a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising, we will update this Policy and provide required notices and opt-out mechanisms before or when required.
6. Cookies, Fonts, Logs, and Similar Technologies
Our website and providers may use technically necessary storage, server logs, and similar technologies to operate, secure, and diagnose the website. The current website also requests web fonts from Google, which may cause the visitor’s browser to transmit network and device information to Google under Google’s own terms and privacy notice.
If analytics, advertising pixels, session recording, or nonessential cookies are later added, BBP must update this Policy and deploy any consent or opt-out controls required by applicable law. Browser settings may block certain technologies, but doing so may affect functionality.
7. Government Filings and Public Records
Information submitted to corporate registries, licensing authorities, courts, trademark offices, tax authorities, or other government bodies may become public, remain permanently available, or be disclosed under public-records laws. BBP does not control government publication, retention, indexing, or third-party republication of lawfully public records. Clients are responsible for reviewing proposed filing information and understanding the public-record consequences before authorizing submission.
8. Retention and Disposal
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including to provide Services, maintain business and transaction records, satisfy legal and contractual requirements, preserve evidence, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and maintain security and continuity. Retention depends on the information’s nature, sensitivity, purpose, applicable limitation periods, filing requirements, and legal obligations.
| Record category | General retention approach |
|---|---|
| Inquiry and consultation records | For the period reasonably needed to respond, follow up, maintain suppression preferences, and establish a business record. |
| Client, project, contract, billing, and transaction records | For the engagement and a commercially and legally reasonable period afterward, including applicable tax, audit, dispute, and limitation periods. |
| Formation, authorization, verification, and compliance records | For the period required by law, provider rules, filing obligations, fraud-prevention needs, and defensible business-record practices. |
| Virtual-office and mail records | According to the applicable service agreement, postal requirements, operational necessity, and legal obligations. |
| Security and technical logs | For a limited period appropriate to security, diagnostics, abuse prevention, and legal obligations. |
At the end of the applicable period, information may be deleted, destroyed, de-identified, or isolated from ordinary use as permitted by law. Backup copies may persist temporarily until overwritten through ordinary backup cycles.
9. Information Security
We use administrative, technical, contractual, and physical safeguards designed to protect information in light of its nature, sensitivity, volume, and the risks involved. Measures may include access restrictions, authentication, encryption where appropriate, vendor review, logging, backup, confidentiality obligations, and incident-response procedures.
No website, transmission, storage system, vendor, or security measure can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for using secure devices and networks, protecting credentials, verifying requests for sensitive information or payments, and promptly notifying us of suspected unauthorized activity.
10. Privacy Rights and Requests
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access, confirmation, correction, deletion, portability, restriction, objection, withdrawal of consent, or information about categories, purposes, sources, and recipients. You may also have a right to opt out of certain sales, sharing, targeted advertising, or qualifying profiling; to limit certain uses of sensitive information; to appeal a denied request; and to be free from unlawful discrimination for exercising a right.
To submit a request, email contact@brickellbp.com with the subject “Privacy Request” and describe the request and your relationship with BBP. We will use information reasonably necessary to verify identity and authority. We will not require verification beyond what is proportionate to the request and the sensitivity of the information. Authorized agents must provide legally sufficient authorization, and we may confirm authority directly with the individual where permitted.
These rights are subject to jurisdiction, applicability thresholds, exemptions, exceptions, and our ability to verify the request. We may retain information necessary to comply with law, complete transactions, secure systems, exercise legal rights, prevent fraud, honor suppression choices, or meet other permitted purposes. If we deny an appealable request, we will provide available appeal instructions.
Global Privacy Control and do-not-track signals
Because BBP does not currently sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, there is no such activity to opt out of on this website. Where legally required and technically applicable, we will process recognized opt-out preference signals, including Global Privacy Control. We do not currently respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals because no uniform legal or technical standard governs those signals.
11. International Users and Data Transfers
BBP is based in the United States. If you interact with us from another country, information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in the United States and other countries where BBP’s providers operate. Those jurisdictions may have different data-protection laws. Where required, we use appropriate transfer mechanisms or safeguards. You may contact us for information about an applicable safeguard.
Individuals in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland may have the rights described above and may lodge a complaint with their local supervisory authority. We ask that you contact us first so we may attempt to address the concern.
12. Children
The website and Services are intended for businesses and persons who have reached the age of legal majority in their jurisdiction. They are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information without legally valid authorization, contact us so we can evaluate and take appropriate action.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy to reflect changes in law, technology, vendors, Services, or practices. The “Last updated” date identifies the current version. If required by law, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent for a material change. Continued use after an update is subject to the revised Policy to the extent permitted by law.
