Privacy Policy
Last Updated: September 25, 2025
The Apollo Group US is a discreet risk, investigations, and protection firm. We design our website and intake process to protect your privacy from the first click. This policy explains what we collect online, how we use it, and the safeguards we apply.
1) Scope
This Privacy Policy covers information collected through apollogroup[.]com and related pages (the “Site”). It does not cover information gathered during client engagements, which follow stricter contractual, legal, and chain-of-custody standards.
2) We Do Not Solicit Sensitive Information Online
Please do not share sensitive information through the Site.
Until an initial consultation is scheduled and secure channels are provided, do not send the following via web forms or email:
-
Government IDs (e.g., SSN, driver’s license, passport)
-
Financial, medical, or insurance records
-
Litigation strategies or privileged communications
-
Full case files, surveillance, device images, or credentials
-
Details involving minors or vulnerable individuals
-
Any content restricted by law, policy, or court order
We intentionally design our forms to request only minimal contact details for scheduling a confidential consultation.
3) Information We Collect
a) Information You Provide Voluntarily
-
Contact details (name, email, phone, company)
-
Basic message context sufficient to route your inquiry (e.g., “corporate investigation,” “executive protection,” city/region)
If you inadvertently submit sensitive data online, we will delete or redact it where feasible and follow up to establish a secure alternative.
b) Information Collected Automatically
-
Technical data: IP address, device/browser type, pages visited, timestamps, referring/exit pages
-
Cookies and similar technologies for site functionality, performance, and security
c) Limited Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand site performance and interest areas. We do not sell your data.
4) How We Use Information
-
Respond to inquiries and schedule consultations
-
Operate, secure, and improve the Site
-
Detect, prevent, and investigate fraud, abuse, or security incidents
-
Comply with applicable laws and enforce our terms
We do not use online submissions to make automated decisions about you.
5) Legal Bases (for visitors in the EEA/UK)
Where applicable, we process data based on: legitimate interests (site operation/security), consent (when you submit a form or accept cookies), and legal obligations (compliance and record-keeping).
6) Sharing & Transfers
We do not sell personal information. We may share limited data with:
-
Service providers under confidentiality (hosting, security, email delivery, analytics)
-
Legal or regulatory authorities when required by law or to protect rights, safety, or security
-
Successors in a merger/acquisition, subject to this Policy
If data is transferred across borders, we use appropriate safeguards (e.g., standard contractual clauses where required).
7) Data Security
-
Encrypted transport (HTTPS/TLS)
-
Access controls and least-privilege permissions
-
Monitoring, logging, and retention limits
-
Segregation between public web systems and evidence repositories
Online forms are not a channel for evidence or privileged materials. Once you are engaged as a client (often via counsel), we provide secure intake methods and apply chain-of-custody protocols.
8) Data Retention
-
Website inquiries: kept only as long as necessary to respond and maintain records consistent with business, legal, or security needs.
-
Accidentally received sensitive data: removed or redacted where feasible and not retained beyond minimal audit logs.
9) Your Choices & Rights
-
Limit cookies: adjust browser settings or use our cookie controls (where offered).
-
Access/Update/Delete: contact us to request access, correction, or deletion of your inquiry information.
-
Opt-out of marketing: use the unsubscribe link or contact us.
Residents of certain jurisdictions (e.g., EEA/UK, California) may have additional rights (access, deletion, portability, restriction, objection). We honor applicable laws and will verify your request.
10) Children’s Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect information from children online. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us and we will delete it.
11) Third-Party Links
The Site may link to third-party websites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their policies before sharing information.
12) Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. The “Effective Date” will reflect the latest version. Material changes will be highlighted on this page.
