Log Files

Like many other Web sites, www.gauntletcreative.com makes use of log files. The information inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, type of browser, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement around the site, and gather demographic information. IP addresses, and other such information are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable.

Technical Data Collection

When you submit a form on our website, we automatically collect certain technical identifiers, including your IP address, browser type, and device information. This data is collected specifically for fraud prevention, security monitoring, and to ensure the integrity of our communication systems. We use this information to identify and block malicious automated “bot” activity and to protect the quality of our services. By using our contact or subscription forms, you acknowledge that this technical data may be stored in our secure database and used to verify the authenticity of your submission.

Cookies and Web Beacons

www.gauntletcreative.com does use cookies to store information about visitors preferences, record user-specific information on which pages the user access or visit, customize Web page content based on visitors browser type or other information that the visitor sends via their browser.

Where your data is sent

Any information that the visitor enters on our contact forms may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Koko Analytics

We use Koko Analytics, a privacy-focused, open-source analytics tool, to understand how visitors use our website without collecting any personally identifiable information (PII). Koko Analytics does not collect your name, email, IP address, or any other personal identifiers. It tracks general website metrics, such as total page visits, unique visitors (first-time vs. returning), and popular content. All collected data stays within your website’s database and is never shared with third-party services. Koko uses a simple cookie to remember if a visitor is new or returning to a specific page, but this cookie doesn’t contain personal data or track you across the internet. We use Koko Analytics to get essential insights into website performance, helping us improve content and user experience, all while strictly protecting your privacy.

Tawk.to Live Chat

Our website uses tawk.to, a live chat service provided by tawk.to Inc. (“tawk.to”). Tawk.to uses “cookies,” which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address, geographical location, browser type, and time of visit) will be transmitted to and stored by tawk.to on servers in the United States. Tawk.to processes this data to provide, support, and improve the chat service. Tawk.to does not sell your personal information. By using our live chat, you consent to the processing of data about you by tawk.to in the manner and for the purposes set out above. For more information, visit the tawk.to Privacy Policy.

Google Search Console

We utilize Google Search Console to monitor our website’s performance and search visibility. This service provide us with anonymous, aggregated data regarding how visitors find and interact with our site (e.g., search queries and page load speeds). This information helps us optimize our services for the community and does not allow us to personally identify individual visitors.

Bot Protection & Security

To ensure a secure experience and prevent fraudulent form submissions, our website utilizes Cloudflare Turnstile. This service helps us distinguish between human visitors and automated “bots” by analyzing certain technical signals—such as your IP address, browser headers, and device characteristics—without the use of persistent tracking cookies or data harvesting for advertising. This processing is based on our legitimate interest in protecting our site from malicious activity and ensuring the reliable delivery of your messages. By using our forms, you acknowledge that this technical data is processed by Cloudflare in accordance with their Privacy Policy.
