Cookies and Google Analytics
The website uses cookies and similar technologies for essential website functions, consent management, security, and optional analytics.
We use CookieYes to display the consent banner and remember your cookie preferences. Necessary cookies may operate without optional consent when required for basic website functions or to preserve your privacy choices.
We use Google Analytics to understand general website traffic and how visitors interact with the website. Depending on your consent choices and our Analytics configuration, Google Analytics may collect information such as browser and device details, approximate location, pages viewed, referral sources, interactions, and visit timing.
We use this information to measure website performance and improve our content and services. HCGCo does not currently use Google Analytics for personalized advertising or remarketing. We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, telephone numbers, or contact-form contents to Google Analytics.
Google explains how it processes information from websites using its services in How Google Uses Information from Sites or Apps That Use Our Services.
More information about the cookies used by this website will be available in our Cookie Policy.
Managing Cookie Preferences
You may accept, reject, or customize optional cookies through the website’s cookie banner. You may later change or withdraw your choices using the cookie-settings control displayed on the website.
Rejecting optional analytics cookies will not prevent you from accessing the website’s primary content or submitting an inquiry.
Do Not Track
Some browsers provide a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is no universally accepted standard for interpreting these signals, our website does not currently respond automatically to browser-based Do Not Track requests. You can control optional cookies through our cookie banner and cookie-settings control.

We may use collected information to:
- Respond to questions and business inquiries
- Prepare requested growth plans, recommendations, or service proposals
- Communicate with prospective and existing clients

We do not use contact information for unrelated promotional email campaigns unless the recipient has separately requested or consented to those communications.
If you choose not to provide the information requested in a contact form, we may be unable to respond or prepare the requested growth plan or proposal.
Legal Bases for Processing
When European Economic Area or United Kingdom privacy law applies, we process personal information under one or more of the following legal bases:
- Consent: For optional analytics cookies and other processing to which you have agreed.
- Contract or pre-contractual steps: To respond to a request, prepare a proposal, enter an agreement, or provide contracted services.

- Legal obligations: When processing or disclosure is required by applicable law.
You may withdraw consent at any time through the cookie-settings control or by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.

- Website hosting and security
- Website forms and content-management software
- Analytics and website-performance measurement
- Cookie-consent management

- At your direction or with your consent
- When reasonably necessary to provide a service you requested
- To comply with a law, subpoena, court order, or lawful governmental request
- To protect the rights, safety, security, or property of HCGCo, our visitors, or others

No Sale or Targeted-Advertising Sharing
HCGCo does not sell personal information.
HCGCo does not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising and does not currently use personal information for targeted advertising as those terms are defined by applicable U.S. state privacy laws.
Disclosure to vendors that process information to provide hosting, Analytics, email, consent management, or other operational services is not intended as a sale of personal information.
International Data Transfers
HCGCo is located in Texas, United States. Information may be processed or stored in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.
When applicable law requires safeguards for transfers from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction, we rely on legally recognized transfer mechanisms used by our service providers, which may include European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses and related contractual protections.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy:
- Contact-form submissions and inquiry records are retained for up to 24 months after the last interaction.
- Google Analytics user-level and event data is retained for up to 14 months unless it is aggregated or deleted earlier.
- Client-service, transaction, tax, accounting, and legally required business records may be retained for up to seven years.
- Cookie-consent records may be retained as reasonably necessary to document visitor choices and comply with applicable obligations.
Information may be retained longer when required by law, necessary to resolve a dispute, or needed to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
When information is no longer required, we will delete, anonymize, or securely isolate it until deletion is reasonably possible, including when it remains temporarily within protected backups.
Automated Processing
Website and Analytics systems automatically organize and report technical and usage information.
HCGCo does not use website data to make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning an individual.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live and subject to applicable legal exceptions, you may have the right to:
- Confirm whether we process your personal information
- Request access to or a copy of your information
- Correct inaccurate personal information

- Opt out of targeted advertising or qualifying profiling
- Receive equal service without unlawful discrimination for exercising a privacy right
HCGCo does not currently sell personal information or process it for targeted advertising.
Texas residents may have rights under the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act when that law applies. California and other U.S. residents may also have rights under their applicable state privacy laws.
Residents of the European Economic Area or United Kingdom may have additional rights, including the right to complain to their local data-protection authority.
Submitting a Privacy Request
To submit a privacy request, email jason.escobar@hillcountrygrowthco.com or use our contact page.
Please describe your request and provide enough information for us to identify the relevant records. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request. We will respond within the period required by applicable law.
If we deny a request and applicable law provides an appeal right, you may appeal by replying to our decision or emailing us with the subject line Privacy Request Appeal.
Children’s Privacy
The website and HCGCo’s services are intended for businesses and adults. They are not directed toward children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
If you believe a child submitted personal information through the website, please contact us. We will investigate and delete the information when appropriate.
Information Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information. These include secure website connections, access controls, reputable service providers, software updates, and security monitoring where available.
No method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security.
Third-Party Links
The website may link to websites or services operated by other organizations. HCGCo does not control their privacy or security practices. Review the privacy policies of third-party websites before providing them with personal information.

We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, technologies, or legal obligations change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
Material changes may also be communicated through the website or another appropriate method.
