Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2025
Branding Creatively LLC, operating under the DBA names Branding Colorado, Branding Wyoming, and Gruner Daumen, is committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency in how we collect, use, and protect your information.

Use of Creative Work in Our Portfolio
We reserve the right to display samples of our creative work—including logos, branding, and website designs—in our portfolio, on our website, and in promotional materials. We may also include a subtle “designed by” link in the footer or similar area of websites we develop as a signature of our work. If you prefer this not be included, you may request its removal in writing and we will respect that request.
Contractors, Passwords & Backups
We occasionally work with experienced third-party contractors, including some based outside the United States, to support design, development, and marketing tasks. All contractors are bound by non-disclosure agreements and operate under strict confidentiality protocols.
To further protect client data and proprietary information, we routinely change passwords for internal systems and tools, and we recommend that our clients do the same. We also encourage the use of encrypted password managers to store and share login credentials securely. We also create and store backup files of client projects in secure storage for recovery or future edits, unless otherwise agreed. We take data security seriously and are committed to safeguarding your information while delivering flexible, efficient service.
How Do We Protect Your Information?
We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information:
-
Regular malware scanning
-
Secure storage behind password-protected systems
-
SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption for sensitive data
-
Access restricted to authorized personnel only
-
No payment information is stored on our servers; all transactions are handled by secure third-party gateways
Do We Use Cookies?

Third-Party Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, or transfer your PII to outside parties. However, we may work with secure third-party tools or platforms that support our operations and service delivery.

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
