Privacy Policy

HostBuddy is committed to protecting customer privacy. This policy describes how we collect and use information when you interact with our website and services.

Third-party vendors

Services supplied by third-party vendors may be governed by their own privacy policies. HostBuddy does not control those policies or the vendor’s independent privacy practices.

Information disclosure

We do not disclose personally identifiable information without permission except when needed to deliver or resolve a service request, comply with law, or complete a corporate transaction such as a merger or acquisition.

Personal and payment information

Order forms request contact and billing information. Contact details are used to provide and support services; financial information is used to process charges for purchased services.

Secure forms

Forms collecting personal information use industry-standard TLS encryption while information is transmitted.

Cookies and analytics

HostBuddy uses cookies, traffic statistics, IP addresses, pixels, and related tools to operate the website, understand repeat visits, improve services, and measure advertising effectiveness. Third-party advertising providers may use non-identifying visit information to provide relevant advertising.

Aggregate statistics

We may share aggregated, non-identifying usage or survey information with partners and service providers.

Communication choices

Marketing and announcement emails include an unsubscribe option. Customers can also manage communication preferences through their control panel.

Policy changes and questions

We may revise this policy and publish the updated date on this page. Continued use of the service after an update constitutes acceptance. Questions can be submitted through our contact page.
