Last updated: June 1, 2026
SeaRidge Advisory Inc. (“SeaRidge,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy applies to SeaRidge Advisory Inc. and the specialist advisory brands, websites, forms, landing pages, and business operations operated by or under the SeaRidge Advisory Inc. platform, including The Alignment Firm and other current or future affiliated brands.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect information when you visit our websites, submit a contact form, request a valuation, request buyer access, inquire about a listing, communicate with us, or otherwise interact with SeaRidge online or through a SeaRidge brand.
Information We Collect
We may collect information you provide directly, including your name, email address, phone number, company name, website, role, industry, location, business details, transaction goals, valuation request information, buyer criteria, acquisition experience, financing capacity, documents, notes, messages, and any other information you choose to provide.
If you submit business sale, valuation, buyer access, listing, or acquisition information, that information may include sensitive commercial information about a company, including revenue, earnings, customers, employees, operations, financial performance, market position, and ownership objectives.
We may also collect technical and usage information, including IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, pages viewed, approximate location, timestamps, form interactions, and website activity.
How We Use Information
We use information to respond to inquiries, evaluate valuation requests, assess buyer access requests, qualify buyers, route inquiries to the appropriate SeaRidge brand, provide advisory information, schedule calls, manage communications, prepare for conversations, improve website performance, maintain security, analyze demand, and support SeaRidge’s business operations.
Submission of information through a website does not create an advisory, brokerage, fiduciary, confidential, or professional relationship unless and until a separate written agreement is signed by the applicable parties.
How We Share Information
We may share information within SeaRidge Advisory Inc. and among SeaRidge brands when doing so helps route an inquiry, evaluate fit, provide advisory support, coordinate a transaction process, or respond to a seller, buyer, referral partner, or other inquiry.
We may share information with service providers that support hosting, analytics, CRM, email, calendar, document management, marketing operations, security, automation, data storage, and other business functions. We do not sell personal information.
Confidential Business Information
We understand that sale, valuation, acquisition, buyer access, and listing inquiries can involve highly sensitive business information. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect submitted information and restrict access based on business need.
No website, email, form, CRM, cloud storage system, or internet transmission is completely secure. Do not submit trade secrets, regulated data, employee records, customer lists, tax returns, financial statements, or highly sensitive documents unless requested through an appropriate process.
Buyer Access, Listings, and Seller Information
Buyer access requests may be used to evaluate buyer fit, acquisition intent, financing capacity, confidentiality readiness, and suitability for seller-approved information release. Seller and listing information may be shared only as appropriate within a controlled process and may be subject to nondisclosure agreements, proof of funds or financing review, seller approval, data room rules, and other transaction-specific requirements.
Cookies and Analytics
We may use cookies, pixels, analytics tools, and similar technologies to understand how visitors use our websites, improve content, measure performance, maintain security, and support marketing and operational decisions.
Data Retention
We retain information as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including responding to inquiries, managing business records, operating CRM systems, supporting transaction processes, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and maintaining security.
Your Choices
You may request that we update, correct, or delete certain personal information by contacting us. We may retain information when necessary for legal, contractual, security, recordkeeping, transaction, compliance, or legitimate business purposes.
Third-Party Links and Tools
Our websites may link to third-party websites, tools, listing platforms, data rooms, email systems, form providers, analytics providers, or affiliated SeaRidge brand websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, content, or availability of third-party sites or tools.
Children’s Privacy
Our websites and services are intended for business and professional audiences and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Company-Level Website Analytics and Business Outreach
We use first-party website analytics and a company-identification service to understand how organizations interact with our website. These tools may use technical and usage information—such as an IP address, browser information, pages viewed, and visit timing—to infer the organization associated with a visit. We do not use this system to identify or claim to know the individual person who visited. If we later identify an owner or decision-maker through a business-data provider, that person is a likely business contact and is not necessarily the website visitor.
We may use verified company-level activity to prepare limited business-to-business outreach about our services. Before any outreach, we check relevant relationship, form, email, suppression, and do-not-contact history. This visitor-intelligence workflow does not collect website form contents, patient information, protected health information, health data, or other sensitive personal information.
Visitor-specific working data is retained for no more than 30 days and is not included in our routine backups. If an outreach lead is approved and contacted, the resulting business contact and correspondence may be retained in our CRM and email systems as business records.
We honor applicable opt-out signals, including Global Privacy Control where required. You may opt out of this company-level tracking on this browser by clicking here. You can reverse that browser setting by clicking here.
