Privacy notice

Sourcing House is the trading name of Megan Harris O’Leary, who operates it personally. Questions about your information can be sent to megan@thesourcinghouse.com.

Inquiry form. The form asks for your name, email, country or time zone and your project answers (plus any quiz suggestion you arrived with). When you submit, your details are sent to our website server to attempt delivery to Megan’s inbox. If sending is unavailable, the page tells you and provides an email-app alternative. The website does not save an inquiry database. Choosing “Prepare project email” or “Copy inquiry” instead keeps the details in your browser until you send them yourself.

Email. If you email Megan directly or use “Prepare project email”, your message goes through your own email provider to her inbox.

Scheduling. If you go on to book a call, Megan shares a booking link by email. Booking is handled by Cal.com and appears in Megan’s Google Workspace calendar, including the name, email and any notes you enter there.

Invoicing. If you become a client, invoices are prepared and sent through Zoho Invoice, which holds your billing name, email and invoice details. Online card payment through this website is not currently offered.

To read and reply to your inquiry, arrange calls, prepare a written scope and fees, deliver agreed work and invoice for it. Your details are not sold, are not used for marketing lists or newsletters, and are not shared with suppliers without your agreement.

• Lovable — hosts this website and sends inquiry-form emails on Megan’s behalf. Its email service keeps delivery records such as recipient, subject, time and delivery status. Lovable privacy policy
• Google Workspace — Megan’s business email and calendar, where inquiries and bookings are received and kept. Google privacy policy
• Cal.com — scheduling, only if you book a call. Cal.com privacy policy

Each provider handles information under its own privacy policy and terms, and may keep its own operational logs. Megan does not control those providers’ retention periods.

Like most websites, every page visit—not only form submissions—is handled by the hosting provider, which processes standard technical request information (such as IP address, browser type, time and pages requested) to serve the site, keep it secure, and produce aggregate visit statistics, and may keep this in its infrastructure logs. This happens whether or not you fill in the form. To limit abuse, the inquiry form briefly uses a one-way scrambled form of your IP address and email to count recent submissions; this is held only in server memory and is not saved. This site adds no advertising cookies and no third-party tracking scripts.

Inquiries and related email stay in Megan’s inbox for as long as they are needed to respond, carry out work, and keep business and tax records, and are deleted when no longer needed. Records held by the services above follow their own retention settings.

You can ask what information Megan holds about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, or ask questions about this notice by emailing megan@thesourcinghouse.com. Depending on where you live, you may also have further rights under local law.

If the way information is handled changes, this page will be updated and the date above revised.
