Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 24, 2026

Brandon Miller (“I,” “me,” or “my”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information collected through brandonmiller.co (the “Site”).

This Privacy Policy describes how I collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect personal information — including information collected through contact forms, consulting inquiry intake, and payment processing on this Site. It also explains the privacy rights available to California residents under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively, the “ CCPA ”).

1. Scope of This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information collected through the Site, including when you:

  • visit or browse the Site;

  • submit an inquiry through a contact or consulting intake form;

  • purchase the book or other products through the Site;

  • submit payment information in connection with consulting services;

  • communicate with me by email or through the Site; or

  • interact with Site features that use cookies or analytics tools.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to information collected offline, through third-party websites or services not operated by me, or through third-party platforms linked from the Site.

Payment processing on this Site is handled by third-party processors (such as Squarespace Payments, Stripe, or PayPal). I do not store your full payment card information on my systems. Please review the applicable processor’s privacy policy for information about how payment data is handled.

2. Personal Information We Collect

I may collect the following categories of personal information through the Site:

A. Identifiers

Examples include:

  • name;

  • email address;

  • phone number;

  • billing address;

  • internet protocol (IP) address; and

  • other online identifiers associated with your browser or device.

B. Financial and Payment Information

When you submit payment for consulting services or book purchases, payment processing is handled by a third-party processor. I may receive limited transaction-related information such as:

  • transaction confirmation and reference numbers;

  • partial payment card information (e.g., last four digits and card type) provided by the payment processor; and

  • billing name and address associated with the transaction.

I do not receive or store full payment card numbers, CVV codes, or bank account details. Full payment information is collected and processed directly by the applicable third-party payment processor.

C. Commercial and Consulting Inquiry Information

Examples include:

  • the contents of messages and inquiries submitted through contact or intake forms;

  • organization name, job title, and professional details you voluntarily provide;

  • interactions with the Site collected through Squarespace analytics and cookies.

E. Professional or Business Information

If you contact me regarding consulting services, I may collect professional or business-related details you voluntarily provide, such as your organization, industry, or compliance-related context.

I do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information through the Site, such as government identification numbers, precise geolocation, health information, or similar sensitive data.

3. Sources of Personal Information

I collect personal information from the following categories of sources:

  • Directly from you, when you fill out a contact or intake form, submit a payment, email me, or otherwise communicate with me;

  • Automatically from your device or browser, through cookies, log files, and analytics tools provided through Squarespace; and

  • From third-party payment processors (such as Squarespace Payments, Stripe, or PayPal), who provide transaction confirmation and related information when you submit payment through the Site.

4. How We Use Personal Information

I may use personal information for the following business and commercial purposes:

  • to respond to your inquiries and communicate with you;

  • to comply with applicable legal obligations; and

  • to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

I use personal information only as reasonably necessary and proportionate for these purposes.

5. Payment Processing

Payment processing for consulting services and book purchases is handled by third-party payment processors. Depending on the payment method selected, your payment may be processed through:

  • Squarespace Payments;

  • Stripe; or

  • PayPal.

When you submit payment information, you are transmitting that information directly to the applicable payment processor through a secure connection. I do not receive, store, or have access to your full payment card number, CVV, or bank account details.

I may receive transaction confirmation data, including partial card information, billing name, billing address, and transaction amount, as provided by the processor to confirm successful payment.

Each payment processor has its own privacy policy governing the collection and use of payment data. I encourage you to review the applicable processor’s privacy policy before submitting payment information.

The Site is hosted on Squarespace, which uses cookies and similar technologies to support Site functionality, security, and analytics.

I use:

I do not currently use:

I do not share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
