We collect information you provide directly to us, including:

We may also collect standard website analytics data such as pages visited, browser type, and referring URLs. This data is collected in aggregate and is not linked to individual identities.

When you provide your phone number and consent to SMS messaging, we collect and use that information to send you text messages. We operate two types of SMS programs:

- Marketing messages (optional, separate consent required): Promotional updates, tips, offers, and news about our services. You are not required to consent to marketing messages to receive our services.
Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies depending on your activity and preferences.
To opt out of SMS messages at any time, reply STOP to any text message from us. To request assistance, reply HELP.
4. No Sale or Sharing of Phone Data
We do not sell, rent, lease, or share your phone number or SMS messaging data with third parties for their own marketing purposes. Phone numbers collected for SMS messaging are used solely to communicate with you on behalf of Shark Branding Solutions.
We do not share your phone number with unrelated third parties or affiliates outside of service providers that assist us in operating our SMS program (such as messaging platforms), who are contractually bound to protect your data.
