Tardus Wealth Strategies, LLC d/b/a Tardus (“Tardus,” “we” or “us”)
Tardus has created this privacy policy statement in order to demonstrate our commitment to your privacy with respect to our websites (“Sites”), as well as the services we provide to our clients (“Client Services”). This privacy policy explains our data collection and use practices for the Sites and our Client Services.

Technologies We Use to Collect Information
We may use cookies, log files, and web beacons on the Sites and in Client Services. These tools may also be implemented by our service and technology partners. Cookies are small data files stored on your device. "Persistent" cookies remain after you close your browser, while "session" cookies are deleted when you leave the site. Log files track website activity and collect information such as your IP address, browser type, internet provider, referring and exit pages, date/time stamps, and browsing behavior. Web beacons are invisible graphics that monitor usage, including navigation, form submissions, and transaction completion.
What Information Do We Gather About You?
Non-Personally Identifiable Information (Non-PII)
We automatically collect usage data when you browse our Sites or interact with Client Services. This includes IP address, browser details, OS, device type, time spent, pages viewed, search terms, and clickstream data. Cookies and web beacons help us gather this data, and your browser may store certain interactions in cookie format.
Personally Identifiable Information (PII)
To access some features, we may request your name, email address, or other details to personalize and provide Client Services. This may also include data from social media platforms (e.g., public handles, posts, and public profile information). You may decline to provide this information, though some features may not be available.
Third-Party and Licensed Data
We may also supplement your data with information obtained from reputable third-party providers (e.g., demographic segments, consumer insights). This data is used in compliance with this policy for marketing and service enhancement.
Information Collected by Others
Third-party platforms and advertisers on our Sites may use cookies or tracking technologies. We do not control their privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those third parties.
How We Use the Information
