We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal and business information. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
We collect information only as needed to provide our services:
We use your information to:
We never sell or rent your information to others.
To operate efficiently and securely, Sho' Biz Intelligence Collectives and the businesses within our collective rely on trusted third-party platforms to help deliver services, including:
Not every platform listed above is used by every business within the Sho' Biz Intelligence Collectives family, or for every engagement. Businesses operating under our umbrella — including AI'ssist Book Pros, Dilige Data Studios, Hip Hop Data Initiative, and JP Linxx NYC — may use a different subset of these platforms, or maintain their own Privacy Policy specific to their services. For details on which platforms and data practices apply to a particular engagement, please refer to that business's own Terms of Service and/or Privacy Policy where available (for example, AI'ssist Book Pros' Privacy & Data Policy).
When you interact with any of these platforms — for example, booking a call, submitting a form, sending an email, joining a video call, completing a notarization, or making a payment — your information is also collected and processed directly by that provider, under that provider's own privacy policy and terms of service. Those policies govern how each platform stores, secures, and handles your data on its own systems, and are outside our direct control.
We select providers that maintain strong industry security and compliance standards, and we only use these platforms for legitimate business purposes connected to your service. However, we are not responsible for the internal data-handling practices, security incidents, or policy changes of these third-party providers. We encourage you to review each provider's own privacy policy for details:
Approved intake channels. For your security and ours, we only accept client files and sensitive information through channels we have specifically set up for your project — such as our intake forms, our official business email address, or a Dropbox link established for your engagement. We do not monitor, open, or act on files or links sent through unsolicited third-party file-sharing services, unfamiliar links, or other channels outside these approved methods, and we are not responsible for information sent that way. If you're ever unsure how to securely send us something, please ask.
We take data security seriously and store client materials only in trusted, encrypted cloud environments, including:
Each platform we use complies with industry security standards (AES 256-bit encryption, SSL/TLS protection).
Access to these systems is limited strictly to authorized team members and is protected by multi-factor authentication.
Sensitive client files (such as receipts, financial records, identity documents, or tax documents) are never shared publicly or used for any purpose other than the contracted work.
Client files uploaded to Dropbox or other project folders are retained only until:
After that, files are securely deleted from shared folders.
Data held by our third-party providers (such as scheduling history or form submissions) is retained according to each provider's own retention practices, which we do not directly control.
Financial and tax-related records maintained in QuickBooks Online or our tax preparation software, and notarial records maintained through BlueNotary or OneNotary, are retained in accordance with applicable accounting, tax, and notary record-keeping requirements, even where longer than our general retention practice for other files.
If you wish to have your data deleted sooner, please email admin@sho-biz.com
