Privacy Policy
Effective Date: August 29, 2026
Direct Approach Security Services (“DASS,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through www.directapproachsecurity.com (the “Site”), how we use and share it, and the choices available to you. This Policy applies only to the Site and does not apply to information we collect through a signed client services agreement, employment relationship, or offline interactions, which are handled separately.
1. Information We Collect
Information You Provide Directly
We collect information you choose to give us, such as when you submit our Contact Us form, request a quote, apply for a job through our Careers page, or otherwise email or call us. This may include your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, company or property information, and the content of your message or application (including a resume, if submitted).
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit the Site, we and our service providers automatically collect certain technical information, including your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring/exit pages, and pages viewed, and the dates/times of your visit. This information is collected through cookies, pixels, and similar technologies described in Section 2.
We do not collect payment card information, Social Security numbers, or other sensitive financial or government ID information through the Site, and we ask that you not include such information in any contact or application form.
2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
The Site uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate, analyze, and improve the Site and to support our advertising efforts, including:
Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager – to understand how visitors use the Site (e.g., pages viewed, time on site, traffic sources);
Meta (Facebook) Pixel – to measure the performance of our Facebook advertising and to help us reach people interested in our services; and
Essential cookies – needed for basic Site functionality and security.
These tools may set cookies on your device and may share data with the respective platform (Google, Meta) in accordance with that platform’s own privacy policy. You can control cookies through your browser settings, opt out of interest-based Google advertising at adssettings.google.com, and manage Meta’s ad tracking through your Facebook/Instagram ad preferences. Disabling cookies may affect how the Site functions.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
Respond to your inquiries and provide requested information about our security services;
Evaluate and process job applications submitted through our Careers page;
Operate, maintain, and improve the Site, including diagnosing technical issues;
Understand Site usage and measure the effectiveness of our content and advertising;
Communicate with you, including responding to messages you send us; and
Comply with legal obligations and protect the rights, safety, and property of DASS, our clients, and others.
We do not use information submitted through the Site to make any automated decision that produces a legal or similarly significant effect on you.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:
Service providers who host the Site, manage our email and forms, or provide analytics and advertising measurement (e.g., our web hosting platform, Google, and Meta), who are authorized to use it only to perform services for us;
Legal and safety authorities, where we believe disclosure is necessary to comply with the law, respond to legal process, or protect the rights, property, or safety of DASS, our clients, our personnel, or the public; and
A successor entity, in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of company assets, subject to the terms of this Policy.

6. Children’s Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will take reasonable steps to delete it. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided us with personal information should contact us using the information in Section 9.
7. Data Security and Retention
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information submitted through the Site. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We retain information collected through the Site for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, respond to your inquiry, evaluate an application, or comply with legal, accounting, or reporting obligations, after which it is deleted or de-identified.
