Privacy Policy | Cameron Hodge

Last updated: June 2026

Cameron Hodge respects privacy and understands that bookkeeping, tax preparation, and advisory services may involve sensitive personal, business, financial, and taxpayer information. This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, shared, protected, and handled when you visit or interact with cameronhodge.com.

This Privacy Policy applies to this website and general website communications only. It does not fully describe every data handling practice that may apply after you become a client. Client records, tax documents, financial information, bookkeeping records, accounting software access, tax return information, portal uploads, payment records, and engagement-related communications may be governed by separate engagement agreements, professional confidentiality obligations, software provider terms, IRS requirements, tax preparer rules, data security procedures, and other applicable standards.

By using this website, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through or related to cameronhodge.com, including information you may provide when you visit the website, use a contact form, click an email link, call the listed phone number, send an inquiry, or otherwise communicate with Cameron Hodge through general website channels.

This Policy does not apply to third-party websites, third-party software, accounting platforms, tax software, payroll providers, payment processors, client portals, email providers, hosting providers, cloud storage providers, banks, government websites, or other external services that may have their own privacy policies and terms.

This Policy also does not apply to information collected offline or through a separate client engagement except to the extent specifically stated.

2. Information You May Provide

When you contact Cameron Hodge through the website, email, phone, or other communication method, you may choose to provide information such as:

Your name.
Your business name.
Your phone number.
Your email address.
Your service interest.
Your industry.
Your entity type.
Your general location.
Whether you need bookkeeping, tax preparation, advisory support, cleanup, or related services.
Information about your current bookkeeping condition.
Information about software you use.
The contents of your message.
Any other information you choose to include.

You should not submit highly sensitive information through the public website contact form or unsecured email unless Cameron Hodge has specifically instructed you to do so through an appropriate channel.

3. Information the Website Contact Form Handles

The website contact form may be designed to open your email application with a draft message addressed to Cameron Hodge. This is intended as a convenience for visitors who want to start a conversation.

Based on the current website design, the form does not store contact form submissions in a website database. Instead, the form opens an email draft using your own email application.

Because email is involved, the information you choose to send may be handled by your email provider, Cameron Hodge’s email provider, internet service providers, device software, and other systems involved in email transmission.

Email may not be fully secure or confidential. Do not send Social Security numbers, full tax documents, bank account numbers, account login credentials, payment card numbers, copies of IDs, payroll records, complete financial statements, or other sensitive documents through unsecured email unless specifically instructed to do so through an appropriate secure method.

4. Information Automatically Collected

Referring page or search source.
Approximate location based on technical data.

This type of information is commonly used to operate, maintain, secure, diagnose, and improve websites.

Cameron Hodge may not personally review all technical logs, but hosting providers or technical service providers may process this information as part of normal website operation.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

This website may use basic cookies, browser storage, embedded scripts, analytics tools, security tools, performance tools, font loading, or similar technologies depending on how the website is configured.

This website is not intended to use invasive advertising trackers or sell visitor information. If advertising pixels, remarketing tools, advanced analytics, scheduling tools, chat widgets, embedded videos, or other third-party tracking tools are added in the future, this Privacy Policy should be updated to reflect those tools.

Third-party providers may collect, process, store, or transmit information according to their own privacy policies, terms, security practices, and legal obligations.

Cameron Hodge does not control every third-party provider’s systems or practices. You should review the privacy policies and terms of any third-party services you use or authorize.

11. Data Security

Cameron Hodge takes privacy and data security seriously, especially because bookkeeping and tax work can involve sensitive business, financial, and taxpayer information.

Reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards may be used to help protect information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, misuse, or destruction. These safeguards may include measures such as access controls, password protection, secure software, document handling procedures, limited access, client verification, secure portals, multi-factor authentication where appropriate, backup practices, and other security procedures.

No website, email system, software platform, internet transmission, or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure. You acknowledge that submitting information electronically involves risk.

If you believe sensitive information has been sent improperly, exposed, compromised, or accessed without authorization, contact Cameron Hodge promptly.

12. Data Retention

Cameron Hodge may retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including communication, prospective client review, professional services, business records, legal compliance, tax compliance, dispute resolution, security, and recordkeeping.

Some information may be deleted, archived, anonymized, or retained as required or permitted by law.

13. Your Choices

You may choose not to provide personal information through the website. However, if you do not provide contact information, Cameron Hodge may not be able to respond to your inquiry.

This website is not intended to enroll visitors into aggressive marketing lists without consent.
