Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 27, 2026
OTM Web Design ("OTM," "we," "us," or "I") is a sole proprietorship operated by Steven Howell, based in Kyle, Texas. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you visit this website (otm-designs.com) or contact us through it, how that information is used, and the choices you have. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.
Information We Collect
Information you provide directly
When you fill out the contact form on this site, you may provide the following:
- Your full name
- Your email address
- Your phone number
- Your business name
- Your business type and the option you are interested in
- Your current website address, or a note that you do not have one
- How you heard about OTM Web Design
- The details you provide about your project
Every field on that form is required, so submitting it means sharing all of the above. You only share it when you choose to submit the form. If you do not contact us, none of it is collected.
Scheduling information
If you book a call, scheduling is handled by Calendly. To complete a booking you provide the following:
- Your name and email address
- Your phone number, since these calls are held by phone
- Your business name
- Your current website address, if you have one
- A short description of what you are looking to accomplish
- How you heard about OTM Web Design
Calendly also records the date and time you select and your time zone. If you choose to add a guest to the booking, Calendly collects that person's name and email address as well; please only add someone else's details if you have their permission to do so.
All of this is collected and processed by Calendly under its own privacy policy, and it is used only to prepare for and hold the call you booked.
Information collected automatically
This site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages and delivered through Cloudflare's content delivery network. When your browser loads the site, Cloudflare receives standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and the time of your request, as part of normal web server and security operation. This is used to serve the site and to protect it from abuse. We do not use this information to identify you personally.
Fonts, images, and all other design files on this site are served from our own domain rather than from a third-party provider. That means loading a page here does not send a request to any outside font or asset service, so no third party learns that you visited.
Local storage on your device
This site stores a single preference on your own device: your chosen language (English or Spanish), so the site remembers it on your next visit. This is stored locally in your browser and is never transmitted to us. We do not use advertising cookies, analytics cookies, or any tracking technology.
How We Use Your Information
Information you submit is used only to:
- Respond to your inquiry and discuss your project
- Prepare a quote or proposal for work
- Communicate with you about a project you have requested
- Prepare for and hold a call you have scheduled
We do not use your information to send marketing emails or promotional material unless you have specifically asked us to.
How Your Information Is Shared
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Ever. Your information is only handled by the third-party services that make this site function:
- Cloudflare hosts this website and delivers it to your browser, and in doing so processes standard request data such as your IP address.
- Formspree processes and delivers your contact form submissions to us.
- Calendly processes call bookings if you schedule one.
Each of these providers handles data under its own privacy policy. We may also disclose information if required to do so by law.
Data Retention
Contact form submissions and call booking details are retained only as long as needed to respond to your inquiry, prepare for and hold any scheduled call, and maintain a record of our communication. You can request that your information be deleted at any time (see "Your Rights and Choices" below).
Data Security
This site is served over a secure (HTTPS) connection. While no method of transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure, we take reasonable measures to protect the information you share with us.
Your Rights and Choices
You may request to access, correct, or delete the personal information you have provided to us. To make a request, contact us through the methods listed at the bottom of this policy. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
Third-Party Links
This site links to client websites, social media, and third-party tools. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of websites we do not operate. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
Children's Privacy
This site is intended for business owners and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will change. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
Contact Us
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or about the information we hold, you can reach us through the contact page on this site, or by scheduling a call through the same page.
