Effective Date: February 2026
FortifiedWall LLC ("we," "us," "our") respects your privacy. This policy describes how we collect, use, share, and protect information when you use fortifiedwall.com ("Site"), the Digital Estate Planning portal ("Portal"), and our services (Digital Estate Planning, Practical Cybersecurity Speaking, and Cybersecurity Consultation). Our product Is This A Scam? has its own privacy policy at isthisascam.email.
Contact form. When you submit the contact form, we collect the name, email address, and message you provide. We use this to respond to your inquiry and, if applicable, to follow up about our services.
Portal account information. If you create a Portal account, we collect your name, email address, and password (stored as a cryptographic hash; we never store your password in plain text). We may also collect profile details you choose to provide.
Portal data you store. The Portal allows you to store information including: digital asset inventories (account names, URLs, credentials, notes); authorized contact and beneficiary information (names, email addresses, phone numbers, relationship); access instructions and trigger conditions; and uploaded documents or files. This data may be highly sensitive. We treat it with the highest level of care as described in this policy and our Terms of Service.
Speaking service. If you engage us for a speaking event, we may collect event organizer contact information, venue details, and booking information as needed to deliver the engagement.
Consultation service. If you book a Cybersecurity Consultation, we collect the contact and scheduling information needed to hold your session, and any information you choose to share with us during the session. Payment for consultations is processed by our third-party payment provider, Stripe, through an external payment link. Stripe collects and processes your payment-card details under its own privacy policy; FortifiedWall LLC does not receive or store your full card number. We receive limited transaction information from Stripe (such as confirmation of payment, the amount, and the last four digits of the card) to fulfill your booking and keep our records.
Automatically collected data. Our hosting and infrastructure provider (Cloudflare) may collect standard technical data such as IP address, browser type, operating system, and pages visited for security, performance, and operational purposes. If you use the Portal, we also maintain activity logs (such as login times and changes to stored data) for security audit purposes. We do not use automatically collected data for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Google Fonts. When you visit our Site, your browser loads fonts from Google (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). This may transmit your IP address to Google. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.
