You are not required to provide personal information simply to browse the Capital Exponent website.
Capital Exponent uses Netlify Web Analytics to understand how the website is used.

Capital Exponent does not currently use third-party advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or behavioral advertising technologies.
Netlify Web Analytics operates through server-side data collection and does not require client-side analytics cookies.
Because Capital Exponent does not currently track visitors across third-party websites for advertising purposes, we do not alter our practices in response to browser “Do Not Track” signals. We do not currently permit third parties to collect personally identifiable information through the Capital Exponent website for cross-site behavioral advertising.
Website infrastructure and service providers may process technical information necessary to deliver, secure, and operate their services.
If Capital Exponent introduces technologies that materially change these practices, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.
Capital Exponent retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to maintain appropriate business records, to resolve disputes or enforce agreements, or as required by applicable law.
For example, correspondence relating to a consulting inquiry may be retained as part of Capital Exponent's ordinary business records.
Capital Exponent takes reasonable administrative and technical measures appropriate to the nature of the information we maintain.
However, no website, electronic communication, or information system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should therefore exercise appropriate care when deciding what information to send electronically.
Capital Exponent publishes research and analysis that may reference or link to third-party websites, publications, government agencies, economic databases, research providers, and other external sources.
When you follow a link to another website, that website's own terms and privacy practices apply. Capital Exponent does not control and is not responsible for the privacy or data practices of third-party websites.
You may contact Capital Exponent if you have questions about personal information you have provided or would like to request that it be reviewed, corrected, or deleted.
Certain information may need to be retained where reasonably necessary for legitimate business, recordkeeping, security, contractual, or legal purposes.
Capital Exponent will respond to applicable privacy requests in accordance with applicable law.
Capital Exponent is a business, economic research, and consulting website and is not directed to children.
We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children through the website.
Capital Exponent may update this Privacy Policy as the website, our services, technology, or applicable legal requirements evolve.
