Security first
We use encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and limited retention practices to reduce exposure.
Privacy Policy
We don’t sell your data—ever.
This privacy policy explains how Emerald Database collects, uses, stores, and protects information you submit through secure contact forms, service requests, and website visits. We keep it plain, direct, and built around data protection.
Your privacy matters
We only collect information that helps us answer inquiries, provide services, and maintain a reliable website. If you read one thing here, read this: your business information is handled carefully and never sold.
Emerald Database is committed to transparency, security, and responsible handling of personal information. This policy is intended to support trust for business visitors and align with applicable North Carolina privacy requirements and GDPR principles where relevant.
No marketing resale
We do not sell personal information or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.
Deletion on request
You can request access, correction, or deletion of your information at any time.
