Privacy Policy
This policy explains what we collect when you visit junipsgrowth.com or ask us for a free sample of posts, what we do with it, who helps us handle it, and how long we keep it. "We", "us" and "Junips Growth" mean Juniper Meridian LLC, doing business as Junips Growth.
The short version: we collect what you type into the form and the photos you upload, we use them to make your sample, and we don't sell any of it. What's kept in our own storage is deleted automatically after 30 days. Copies held by the service providers who help us may be kept longer, under their own retention periods.
This policy covers the website and the free sample. If you become a paying client, how we handle your information for the paid service is set out in your written agreement with us.
What we collect
What you give us
- Business details: your business name, city and industry.
- One social media handle, when you send photos through the main form.
- Your email address, so we can send your sample and the emails described below.
- Your photos, 5 to 10 of them, along with each file's original name, type and size. Most photos are resized in your browser before they are sent, which also removes hidden details stored inside the file, such as where the photo was taken. HEIC photos (a format many iPhones use) are sent as they are, including any such details.
- Anything you write to us if you email or reply to us.
What is collected automatically
- A bot check. The form uses a bot check, run by our hosting provider, to tell people from automated spam. To do that, the provider looks at signals such as your IP address and browser details, and may set a cookie needed for the check. We send your IP address to the provider along with the check.
- Browser type and country. When you submit the form, we record the kind of browser you used and the country your connection comes from, together with the time you submitted.
- Server records. Like any website host, our hosting provider processes the IP address and request details of every visit in order to deliver the site and protect it from attacks.
We don't use web analytics. The site has no analytics, no advertising trackers and no social media pixels.
How we use it
- To make your free sample posts from your photos and business details, and email them to you. The email that delivers your sample also tells you about our paid service and includes a link to book a call; it carries an unsubscribe link.
- To send you the emails that go with your request: a confirmation when your photos arrive; or, if you asked for the photo guide instead, the guide with a private upload link, plus one reminder three days later that is cancelled as soon as your photos arrive.
- To answer you when you write to us.
- To keep the form working and free of spam and abuse.
After your sample arrives, we may email you about your sample and about our service. The email that delivers your sample carries an unsubscribe link, and so does any later email about our service. Use it and we will stop sending you those emails.
Your photos
We use the photos you upload for one thing: making your free sample. We do not put them in our portfolio or marketing, and we do not share them with anyone except the service providers listed below who help us make and deliver your sample. You still own your photos. Our Terms of Use describe the limited permission you give us to work with them.
We make your sample with the help of AI content generation services. Your photos are passed to those services only to produce your posts.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for advertising. We share it only with service providers that help us run the site and make your sample, and only as much as each one needs:
- A cloud hosting and storage provider hosts the website and the code that receives the form, stores your photos and form details in private storage, and runs the bot check.
- An email delivery service sends our emails to you, so it handles your email address and the content of those emails.
- A business email provider hosts our inbox, so it holds any emails you send or reply to us.
- A workflow automation service receives your form details, the time you submitted, your browser type and country, and time-limited links to your photos, so that our team can track your request and build your sample.
- AI content generation services receive your photos and business details to produce your posts (see above).
We may also disclose information if the law requires it, or if we need to protect our rights or someone's safety.
How long we keep it
- 30 days in our storage. Your photos, and the form details stored with them, are kept in our private storage, which deletes them automatically 30 days after they were last saved there. This happens whether or not your sample is finished.
- Links expire sooner. The links our workflow automation service uses to open your photos stop working after 7 days. A private upload link from the photo guide works for 14 days and only once.
- If you unsubscribe, we keep a record of that permanently, so that we never email you about our service again. The record holds a scrambled fingerprint of your email address, not the address itself, and the date.
- Copies held by service providers. The 30-day deletion applies to our own storage only. Copies of your details, photos, emails and finished sample that pass through the service providers listed above may be kept for their own retention periods.
- Emails. Emails between you and us stay in our inbox until we delete them.
You can ask us to delete your information sooner at any time (see below).
Cookies and tracking
We don't use cookies for advertising or to follow you around the web. The only cookie-like technology on the site is the bot check on the form, which our hosting provider uses to tell people from bots.
Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" signal. Because we don't track visitors across other websites, there is nothing for that signal to switch off, so the site behaves the same either way. Apart from the bot check, we do not allow other companies to collect information about your activity across websites through our site.
How we protect it
Your photos and details are stored in private storage that is not open to the public. Photos can only be opened through signed links that expire. Upload links are stored in scrambled form, so even someone who could read our storage could not use them. The site is served over encrypted HTTPS connections. No system is perfectly secure, but we collect only what we need and delete what's in our storage on a schedule, which limits what could ever be exposed.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us at any time to show you what we hold about you, correct it, or delete it, including your photos. Email hello@junipsgrowth.com from the address you used on the form, so we know the request is really yours. We will not treat you differently for asking.
If you live in California or another state with its own privacy law, you may have further rights, such as the right to know what we collect and to ask us to delete it. We honour those requests the same way. We do not sell or share personal information, so there is nothing to opt out of.
Children
This site is for businesses and the adults who run them. It is not meant for children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13. If you think a child has sent us information, email us and we will delete it.
Where your information is handled
We are based in the United States and the site is meant for businesses in the United States. Our service providers may handle information in the United States and in other countries where they operate.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle your information, we will update this page and the effective date at the top. If a change is significant and we have your email address from an open request, we will also tell you by email.
