Privacy Policy

Effective Date: March 30, 2026

QC Webworks LLC ("we", "us", "our") operates Total Control (the "Service"), a marketing command center platform accessible at portal.qcwebworks.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Account Information

When you create an account or are provisioned as a user, we collect:

  • Name, email address, and username
  • Password (stored as a secure bcrypt hash — we never store plaintext passwords)
  • Role and organizational affiliation

1.2 Connected Platform Data

When you connect third-party services through our platform, we access and store data from those services on your behalf. This may include:

  • Google Ads: Campaign performance, keyword data, ad metrics, budget information, and conversion data
  • Microsoft Advertising: Campaign snapshots, keyword reports, search query data, and performance metrics
  • Google Analytics 4: Traffic data, page views, user demographics, device information, and conversion events
  • HubSpot CRM: Contacts, companies, deals, pipelines, and engagement data
  • WordPress Sites: Site content, pages, posts, plugins, themes, media, SEO data, and site health information

1.3 OAuth Tokens & Credentials

When you connect integrations via OAuth, we securely store refresh tokens and access tokens encrypted at rest using AES-256. We never store your third-party passwords. You may revoke access at any time by disconnecting the integration from your dashboard or revoking access directly in the third-party service.

1.4 Usage Data

We automatically collect:

  • Activity logs (actions taken within the portal, timestamps, IP addresses)
  • Uptime monitoring data for connected sites
  • Error logs for troubleshooting and service improvement

1.5 Feedback & Visual Bug Reports

If you use the visual feedback widget on connected sites, we collect screenshots, annotations, page URLs, browser metadata, and your written descriptions. This data is stored on our servers and accessible only to authorized users within your organization.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
  • Display unified dashboards, reports, and analytics across your connected platforms
  • Generate AI-powered insights and recommendations
  • Monitor site uptime and deliver health scores
  • Send transactional emails (alerts, uptime notifications, account updates)
  • Process billing and enforce plan limits
  • Diagnose technical issues and prevent abuse

3. AI & Data Processing

The Service may use artificial intelligence (including Claude by Anthropic) to generate insights, summaries, and recommendations based on your connected platform data. Your data is processed in real-time to answer queries and is not used to train AI models. AI-generated outputs are informational — you are responsible for any actions taken based on these insights.

4. Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information or connected platform data. We may share data with:

  • Service Providers: Hosting providers, email delivery services, and payment processors who assist in operating the Service, bound by confidentiality obligations
  • Your Organization: Admins within your account can view data for users and sites under their management
  • White-Label Partners: If you access the Service through a white-label deployment, the deploying organization may have admin access to your account data
  • Legal Requirements: When required by law, subpoena, or to protect our rights, safety, or property

5. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. Upon account deletion:

  • Account information is deleted within 30 days
  • Connected platform data and OAuth tokens are deleted immediately
  • Activity logs are retained for up to 90 days for security purposes, then permanently deleted
  • Backups containing your data are purged within 60 days of deletion

6. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including:

  • TLS/SSL encryption for all data in transit
  • AES-256 encryption for stored OAuth tokens and sensitive credentials
  • Bcrypt password hashing with appropriate cost factors
  • HMAC-SHA256 authentication for site-to-portal API communication
  • CSRF protection on all form submissions
  • Role-based access control (Admin, Client Admin, Client Viewer)

7. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
  • Delete your account and associated data
  • Export your data in a portable format
  • Revoke third-party integration access at any time
  • Opt out of non-essential emails

To exercise these rights, contact us at support@qcwebworks.com.

8. Cookies & Local Storage

We use:

  • Session cookies: Required for authentication — expire when you close your browser or after inactivity
  • Theme preference: Stored in localStorage to remember your light/dark mode choice

We do not use third-party tracking cookies or advertising pixels.

9. Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a minor has provided us data, contact us to have it removed.

10. International Data Transfers

Your data may be processed and stored on servers located in the United States. By using the Service, you consent to this transfer. We take reasonable steps to ensure your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
