By using the Online Services, you agree to this Policy.

3) How We Collect Information

• Directly from you (forms, email, phone).

• Automatically (cookies/analytics when you use the Site).

• From clients (e.g., property managers) who lawfully provide contact lists or access details for a contracted property.

• From vendors (e.g., identity/background screening, communications, mapping, hosting, and—if used—payment processing).

4) Why We Use Information

• Provide quotes, schedule services, and perform operations under a Service Agreement.

• Communicate with you (confirmations, updates, incident follow-ups, career communications).

• Operate, secure, debug, and improve the Site and our operations.

• Screen and evaluate employment/contractor candidates (with required disclosures/authorizations).

• Comply with legal obligations and support safety, fraud prevention, and security.

• (If enabled/consented) send marketing communications and measure advertising.

GDPR legal bases (where applicable only): contract performance; legitimate interests (operations, safety, Site security); consent (certain cookies/marketing or checks requiring consent); legal obligations.

5) How We Share Information

We share information with:

• Service Providers/Vendors that help us operate (hosting, CRM, communications, analytics, mapping, background screening, and—if used—payment processors).

• Third-Party Contractors we engage or coordinate for your job (e.g., UAV/drone operators, K-9 teams/handlers, police/off-duty coordination, traffic control, EMT, event staffing). We provide only the minimum necessary information to perform requested work. These contractors are independent and responsible for their own compliance and records.

• Law Enforcement/Legal when required by law, legal process, or to protect rights, safety, or property.

• Business Transfers in case of merger, acquisition, or asset sale.

We do not sell personal information for money. For California residents, certain analytics/ads may be considered “sharing” (and in some cases a “sale”) for cross-context behavioral advertising. You may opt out as described below; we honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals.

6) Cookies & Tracking Controls (No External Links)

We use strictly necessary (security/session), analytics/performance, and advertising/retargeting cookies (only if enabled/consented where required).
Your controls: manage cookies through your browser settings and any on-site preference controls we provide on www.ApexGlobalSecurity.com. Disabling certain cookies may affect Site functionality.

7) Data Security

We employ administrative, technical, and physical safeguards (e.g., TLS in transit, least-privilege access, logging). No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and risks remain.

8) Data Retention

We retain information only as long as necessary for the purposes described and to meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Operational media (e.g., incident video) is retained per Service Agreement, legal hold, or policy, then securely deleted or archived.

9) Your Rights & Choices

A. United States (General). You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal information (subject to legal limits). You may opt out of marketing communications by using the unsubscribe instructions in our emails or by contacting Apex Global Security.

B. California (CCPA/CPRA) — applies only to California residents. California residents may have rights to: (i) know/access categories and specific pieces of personal information collected; (ii) delete personal information (subject to exceptions); (iii) correct inaccurate personal information; (iv) opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (including via GPC signals); (v) limit use/disclosure of sensitive personal information (where applicable); and (vi) be free from discrimination for exercising rights. To exercise CCPA rights, contact Contactapex@apexglobalsecurity.com or 1-888-233-0605. We will verify your request as required by law. Authorized agents may submit requests with proper authorization.

C. GDPR (EEA/UK) — applies only if you are located in the EEA/UK. You may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or object to processing. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it at any time (without affecting prior lawful processing). For international transfers to the U.S., we use appropriate safeguards and supplementary measures as needed.

D. Arizona Data-Breach Notice. If a breach of security affects Arizona residents’ personal information, Apex Global Security will provide notice consistent with Arizona data-breach requirements, including statutory timing.

10) Children’s Privacy

The Online Services are not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 where GDPR applies). If you believe a child has provided data, contact us for deletion.

11) Arizona Law; Site Monitoring & UAV Notice

Apex Global Security operates in accordance with Arizona law (including security guard licensing and criminal trespass requirements). Clients are responsible for lawful instructions and for ensuring any required signage, notices, and consents for monitoring/recording and trespass enforcement at their premises, unless otherwise agreed in writing. UAV/drone operations (when used) are conducted only as permitted by law and safety protocols.

12) Do Not Track

We do not respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals. For California, see the opt-out mechanisms above, and note that we honor GPC signals.

13) Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy. The Effective Date will change and material updates will be posted on the Site. Continued use of the Online Services means you accept the updated Policy.
