Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information Welgent collects, how we use it, and the choices you have — including how we handle phone numbers and SMS consent.
Last updated: July 28, 2026
Who we are
Welgent (“Welgent,” “we,” “us”) builds and manages websites, local SEO, call answering, and CRM automation for local service businesses. You can reach us at matt@welgent.com or (443) 856-9230.
Information we collect
We only collect information you choose to give us. Welgent’s website has no contact forms — the only place you can submit information to us is our chat widget.
- Information you provide in chat. If you start a conversation with us, we collect what you type — typically your name, business name, email address, and phone number, along with the contents of your messages.
- Information you send directly. If you email or call us, we keep that correspondence.
- Basic usage data. Standard technical information such as pages visited and general location, used to understand how the site performs.
How we use your information
- To respond to your question and follow up about our services.
- To send you text messages, if you have given consent (see below).
- To provide and improve the services you have asked us about.
- To meet legal or regulatory obligations.
We do not sell your personal information.
SMS, mobile information, and consent
If you provide your phone number in our chat and agree to receive text messages, you are opting in to receive SMS from Welgent. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to opt out, or HELP for help. Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing anything from us.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.
Full messaging terms are available in our Terms of Service.
Who we share information with
We share information only with service providers who help us operate our business — for example our messaging and CRM platform, our email provider, and our website host. These providers may only use the information to perform services for us. We may also disclose information where required by law.
As stated above, mobile opt-in data and SMS consent are never shared with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Your choices
- Reply STOP to any text message to stop receiving SMS from us.
- Email matt@welgent.com to ask what information we hold about you, correct it, or request deletion.
- Ask us at any time to stop contacting you.
Data retention and security
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes described here or as required by law, and we use reasonable safeguards to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children
Our services are intended for businesses and are not directed to anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date above reflects the most recent version.
