Separately, we ask whether you would like to receive Fractional AECO Insights & Resources emails. Signing up for those emails is optional, and you do not need to opt in to receive the resource you requested. You can withdraw your consent at any time (see Email Communications). ### Information collected automatically When you visit the Site, submit a form, or open our emails, we and our technology providers may collect: - **Device and technical data:** IP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, and other online identifiers - **Usage data:** pages viewed, access times, time spent, referring URLs, and interactions with the Site, including with forms and embedded content - **Email engagement data:** opens, clicks, and unsubscribes, collected through links and tracking pixels in our emails - **Approximate location:** city, region, or country based on your IP address (we do not collect precise location) We collect this information using cookies, tracking code, and similar technologies, including HubSpot’s. See Our Use of HubSpot and Cookies and Tracking. ### Sensitive personal information We do not intend to collect sensitive personal information through general Site forms, such as Social Security numbers, biometric information, precise geolocation, health information, or information revealing protected or highly sensitive personal characteristics. Please do not submit this information through general inquiry or resource request forms unless we specifically request it for a legitimate business purpose. ### Information from other sources We may also receive information about you from your employer, colleagues, or project stakeholders; from service providers such as our CRM, email, analytics, and scheduling platforms; and from publicly available professional sources such as company websites and professional networks. ## 02How We Use Information We use personal information to: - **Operate the Site:** keep it secure, working properly, and remember your preferences - **Communicate with you:** respond to inquiries, deliver resources you request, and send updates you ask for - **Provide our services:** carry out consulting engagements and handle billing - **Market our services:** send newsletters, event invitations, and insights, and conduct business development outreach - **Improve the Site:** measure site performance and understand how visitors use it - **Meet legal and security needs:** comply with the law and prevent fraud Where we rely on your consent, such as for marketing emails you opt in to through our forms, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect anything we did with your information before you withdrew it. We do not sell personal information, as that term is defined under applicable state privacy laws, and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or use it for targeted advertising. We do not make decisions about you based solely on automated processing that have legal or similarly significant effects. ## 03Our Use of HubSpot Fractional AECO uses HubSpot technologies to support website hosting, forms, customer relationship management, email communications, subscription preferences, analytics, and related functionality. Information you submit through the Site may be processed by HubSpot on our behalf. HubSpot technologies on the Site may also collect device, usage, IP address, online identifier, and website interaction information. In certain circumstances, HubSpot may process that information for its own purposes, as described in [HubSpot’s privacy policy](https://legal.hubspot.com/privacy-policy). We encourage you to review it. Fractional AECO remains responsible for telling you how information collected through the Site is used and for obtaining any consent we need before that information is collected. ## 04How We Share Information We share personal information only when needed, with: - Service providers such as HubSpot and our hosting, email, and scheduling providers, which process information to support our business (see Our Use of HubSpot) - Business partners or subcontractors when needed for a specific consulting engagement - Professional advisers such as lawyers, accountants, auditors, and insurers - Legal or regulatory authorities when required by law or to protect rights, safety, or property - Parties to a corporate transaction such as a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to continued protection of the information - Others at your direction or with your consent We do not rent personal information, and we do not give it to third parties for their own marketing. ## 05Cookies and Tracking We use cookies, tracking code, and similar technologies, including those provided by HubSpot, in three categories: - **Strictly necessary:** required for the Site to function and stay secure - **Analytics:** help us measure usage and site performance - **Functional:** remember your preferences and support embedded content We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies. If that changes, we will update this Policy and provide any required choices first. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the Site works. **Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control.** We do not currently respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals because there is no common standard for them. Where a law that applies to us requires us to honor an opt-out preference signal such as Global Privacy Control, we will do so. ## 06Email Communications If you opt in to Fractional AECO Insights & Resources, we will send you insights, resources, and related updates by email. Every marketing email we send includes an unsubscribe link and our postal address. You can also opt out or withdraw your consent at any time by emailing [development@fractionalaeco.com](mailto:development@fractionalaeco.com). We process opt-outs promptly, and always within 10 business days. If you unsubscribe, you may still receive transactional emails related to services you have requested. We track basic email engagement (opens and clicks) to understand what content is useful, and we do not use it to make automated decisions about you. ## 07Data Retention How long we keep personal information depends on the type of information and why we collected it. We keep it while we have an ongoing business need, such as responding to your inquiry, maintaining our relationship with you or your organization, or sending emails you have opted in to receive. We also keep it as needed to meet legal, tax, and accounting obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. If you unsubscribe, we keep a record of your opt-out so that we do not contact you again. When we no longer need personal information, we securely delete or de-identify it. You can ask us to delete your information sooner, as described in Your Privacy Choices and Rights. ## 08Your Privacy Choices and Rights You can unsubscribe from marketing emails, withdraw any consent you have given us, manage cookies through your browser, and ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. We will honor reasonable requests, except for information we must keep for legal, contractual, or security reasons. If an applicable state privacy law gives you additional rights, including laws in states such as Maryland, you may have the right to confirm whether we process your personal information, receive a portable copy of it, and opt out of targeted advertising, the sale of personal information, and certain profiling. We will explain which rights apply when you make a request. ### How to make a request Email [privacy@fractionalaeco.com](mailto:privacy@fractionalaeco.com) or write to us at the address under Contact Us. We will verify your identity before acting on a request, which may include asking you to confirm information we already have. An authorized agent may submit a request for you with proof of authorization. We will respond within 45 days, or sooner if your state’s law requires it. If we need more time, we will tell you why. We will not treat you differently for exercising your rights. If we deny your request, you can appeal by emailing [privacy@fractionalaeco.com](mailto:privacy@fractionalaeco.com?subject=Privacy%20Request%20Appeal) with the subject line “Privacy Request Appeal.” If your appeal is denied, you may contact your state Attorney General. ## 09Data Security We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards, including access controls, encryption in transit, and monitoring and incident response procedures. No system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee the security of your information. If a data breach affects your personal information, we will notify you and the appropriate authorities as required by law. ## 10Where We Process Information Fractional AECO is based in the United States, and our services are offered to clients in the United States. We and our service providers store and process personal information primarily in the United States. If you visit the Site from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States. ## 11Children’s Privacy The Site is intended for business professionals and is not directed to anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16, and we will delete it promptly if we learn we have. If you believe a child has given us personal information, please contact [privacy@fractionalaeco.com](mailto:privacy@fractionalaeco.com). ## 12Third-Party Websites The Site may link to websites we do not operate. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, and we encourage you to read their privacy policies. ## 13Changes to This Policy We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. If we make material changes, we will let you know on the Site or by email where required by law. ## 14Contact Us If you have questions about this Policy or need it in an alternative format because of a disability, please contact us: Fractional AECO LLC 6420 Spring Terrace Falls Church, VA 22042 **Privacy questions and requests:** [privacy@fractionalaeco.com](mailto:privacy@fractionalaeco.com) **Email preferences:** [development@fractionalaeco.com](mailto:development@fractionalaeco.com) **Website:** [www.fractionalaeco.com](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/?hsLang=en) [↑](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/privacy-policy#privacyTop) [![Fractional AECO](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/hubfs/New%20Logo/Fractional%20AECO%20Brand%20Logo.png)](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/?hsLang=en) [Our Approach](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/#who) [Services](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/services-fractional-aeco?hsLang=en) [Careers](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/careers-fractional-aeco?hsLang=en) [Contact Us](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/#contact) Site Map **Explore Fractional** [Home](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/?hsLang=en) [Who We Are](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/#who) [How We Work](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/#work) [What We Think](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/#think) [Services](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/services-fractional-aeco?hsLang=en) [Contact](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/#contact) **Services** [BIM/VDC](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/services-fractional-aeco#bim-vdc) [Laser Scanning & Reality Capture](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/services-fractional-aeco#laser-scanning) [Staffing Augmentation](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/services-fractional-aeco#staffing) [Technology Solutions](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/services-fractional-aeco#technology) [Management Solutions](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/services-fractional-aeco#management) **Careers** [Careers Overview](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/careers-fractional-aeco?hsLang=en) [How We Hire](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/careers-fractional-aeco#hiring) [Opportunities](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/careers-fractional-aeco#opportunities) [Career Interest](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/careers-fractional-aeco#career-contact) [Privacy Policy](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/privacy-policy?hsLang=en) [Cookies & Tracking](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/privacy-policy#privacy-cookies) [Accessibility Statement](https://www.fractionalaeco.com/accessibility-statement?hsLang=en) Call us at: [+1 980 494 0263](tel:+19804940263) © 2026 Fractional-AECO LLC.
