Blindside provides domain recovery and takedown counsel for ecommerce brands. This policy explains what information we collect when you contact us or request a confidential review, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep data collection deliberately narrow.
Information we collect
When you submit the confidential review form, we collect only what you provide:
- Your name (full request form only) so we know who we are writing back to.
- Work email so we can return your review and reply to you.
- Brand domain so we can map the lookalike registrations around it.
- Platform to scope the work.
- Monthly traffic to judge what a diverted visitor is worth, so the report can rank by revenue at risk rather than by count.
- What is happening (full request form only) whatever you choose to write. This one is free text, so it holds exactly what you put in it and nothing more: we do not ask for account numbers, customer data or anything about a third party, and you should not send them.
That is the whole list. It is rendered from the same field contract the server reads, so it cannot quietly fall behind the form.
The form also carries one hidden box that no person should ever see or fill in. It exists to catch automated submissions: anything typed into it means the submission is discarded rather than sent or stored.
We do not add you to a mailing list. As our site says: no mailing list, no follow-up unless you ask for one. What we do and do not load in your browser is the next section.
Cookies, analytics, and what your browser stores
This site sets no cookies. Not on any page, not before you interact with it and not after. There is no analytics, no tag manager, no advertising network and no tracking pixel.
Everything a page loads comes from this site itself, including the typeface and the hero film. Nothing is fetched from another company's servers, so no third party learns that you were here, and there is nothing for us to ask your consent for.
One thing is kept on your device: whether you paused something that moves.
Those entries live in your browser's local storage, their names all begin
with bs:, they hold a preference and never an identifier, they
are never sent to us, and clearing this site's data removes them.
These are checked rather than asserted. Before this site can be published, a test opens the pages in a real browser, presses the controls that remember a choice, and refuses the release if a cookie appears, if any request leaves this origin, or if anything is written to your browser that is not one of those preferences. We publish the same kind of evidence for accessibility.
How we use it
We use the information solely to prepare and deliver your review, to respond to your inquiry, and, if you engage us, to carry out the recovery or takedown work. We do not sell or rent your information to anyone.
How it is handled
Form submissions are delivered to us by email. We retain them only as long as needed to respond and to maintain records of any engagement, then delete them. Access is limited to the people working on your matter.
Sharing
We share information only where it is necessary to do the work you ask for: for example, with the dispute providers (such as WIPO or the Forum), registrars, or co-counsel involved in a recovery. We share with service providers who help us operate the site, and where required by law.
Your choices
You can ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. To make a request, contact us at the email address we use to correspond with you, or through the form on our home page.
Changes
We may update this policy as our practices evolve. The date above reflects the most recent revision.
