This Privacy Policy explains how The Inspired Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company registered to do business in Illinois as a foreign LLC, doing business as VueScale Partners ("VueScale," "we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you visit vuescale.io (the "Site"), contact us, book a call with us, or subscribe to our VueInsights newsletter.
VueScale is a business-to-business fintech advisory firm based in the United States. The Site is intended for business professionals. It is not directed to consumers in their personal capacity, and we do not sell products or take payments through the Site.
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, contact us at hello@vuescale.co.
Contact Form. When you submit our contact form, we collect your name, work email address, company name, and any message you choose to include. The message field is optional. Form submissions are delivered by email to our business mailbox at contact@vuescale.co.
Call Bookings. When you book an introductory call through our Google Calendar appointment scheduling page, we collect the information requested on the booking page, which includes your name, email address, the time slot you select, and any notes you provide. The booking creates a calendar event and a Google Meet video conference link.
Newsletter Signup. When you subscribe to VueInsights, we collect your email address. We send newsletters by email. If we later use an email service provider, it will process your email address on our behalf.
Email and Other Communications. When you email us directly or communicate with us through LinkedIn or other channels, we collect the information you choose to share, such as your name, contact details, job title, company, and the content of your message.
When you visit the Site, we and our service providers automatically collect certain information about your device and your use of the Site, including:
We collect this information using cookies, server logs, and similar technologies. See Section 6 (Cookies and Analytics) for more detail.
We may receive information about you from publicly available sources and professional networks, such as LinkedIn, and from business contacts who refer you to us.
We use personal information to:
We do not use the personal information we collect through the Site to make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about you based solely on automated processing.
We do not sell personal information, and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we do not use advertising pixels or remarketing tags on the Site. We share personal information only as follows:
Service Providers. We use third-party vendors that process information on our behalf to operate the Site and our business. These currently include:
Professional Advisors. We may share information with our lawyers, accountants, and other professional advisors as needed.
Legal and Safety Reasons. We may disclose information if we believe in good faith that disclosure is required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of VueScale, our clients, or others.
Business Transfers. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to customary confidentiality protections.
With Your Consent. We may share information for other purposes with your consent or at your direction.
The Site contains links to our LinkedIn page and to other third-party websites. If you click those links, the third party may collect information about you under its own privacy policy. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties, and we encourage you to review their policies.
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site and to understand how visitors use it. Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website.
Strictly Necessary Cookies. These support core functions such as security, form submission, and load balancing. The Site cannot function properly without them.
Analytics Cookies. We use Google Analytics, connected through Google Site Kit, to measure traffic and usage patterns. Google Analytics collects information such as pages visited, time on site, device and browser information, and approximate location. You can learn how Google uses this information at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and can opt out by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Embedded Content. Pages that link to or embed content from third parties, such as Google Calendar or LinkedIn, may allow those third parties to set their own cookies.
Your Choices. You can manage cookie preferences through the cookie banner on the Site and through your browser settings, which let you block or delete cookies. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Site works.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. Some browsers send "Do Not Track" signals. Because there is no common industry standard for these signals, the Site does not currently respond to them. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as a request to opt out of any sale or sharing of personal information, to the extent required by applicable law.
We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. Our general retention guidelines are:
When information is no longer needed, we delete it or de-identify it.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections to the Site and access controls on our accounts. No method of transmission over the internet or of electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Newsletter. You can unsubscribe from VueInsights at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any newsletter email or by contacting us.
Communications. You can ask us to stop contacting you by emailing hello@vuescale.co.
Cookies. See Section 6.

Subject to certain exceptions, California residents have the right to:
To submit a request, email hello@vuescale.co with the subject line "California Privacy Request." We will verify your request by matching the information you provide with the information we hold, and we may ask for additional information to confirm your identity. You may use an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf, and we may require proof of the agent's authority. We will respond within the time required by law, generally 45 days.
Residents of other US states with comprehensive privacy laws (for example, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Texas, and Oregon) may have rights similar to those described above, including rights to access, correct, delete, and obtain a copy of their personal information, and to opt out of targeted advertising, sale, or profiling. To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@vuescale.co. If we deny your request, you may appeal by replying to our decision with the subject line "Privacy Request Appeal."
The Site is operated from the United States and is intended primarily for US businesses. If you visit from the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, the following applies to you:
Controller. VueScale, as identified in Section 1, is the controller of your personal information.
Legal Bases. We process your personal information on the basis of our legitimate interests (responding to business inquiries, operating and securing the Site, and developing business relationships), your consent (newsletter and non-essential cookies, where required), the performance of a contract or steps taken at your request before entering into one (scheduling and preparing for calls), and compliance with legal obligations.
Your Rights. You may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to our processing of your personal information, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority or, in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office.
International Transfers. Your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, which may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or the service provider's certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and its UK extension.
To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@vuescale.co.
