Privacy Policy

New York Business Brokers ("we," "us," or "the firm") operates newyorkbusinessbrokers.net. Confidentiality is the core of our profession, and that standard extends to how we handle information collected through this website. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

1. Information we collect

We collect information you provide directly, such as when you submit our contact form, request a valuation, register as a buyer, call our office, or email us. This may include your name, email address, phone number, business or industry details, approximate financial figures you choose to share, and the contents of your message. We also collect limited technical information automatically, such as browser type, device type, pages visited and referring pages, used in aggregate to understand how the site is used.

2. How we use your information

We use the information you provide to respond to your inquiry, evaluate potential engagements, deliver valuation opinions, match registered buyers with relevant opportunities, and communicate with you about our services. We use aggregate technical data to improve the website. We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes — ever.

3. Confidentiality of seller and buyer inquiries

Inquiries about selling a business are treated with heightened confidentiality. We do not disclose the identity of a prospective seller, or the fact that a business may be for sale, to any third party without written authorization — typically in the form of an executed engagement agreement and controlled, NDA-protected disclosure to qualified buyers. Buyer registration information is used solely to qualify and match buyers with opportunities and is not shared with sellers until the buyer authorizes an introduction.

4. Sharing with service providers

We may share limited information with service providers who support our operations — such as email hosting, customer relationship management and website hosting — under obligations of confidentiality. We may disclose information where required by law, subpoena or court order, or where necessary to protect our legal rights.

5. Cookies and analytics

This website uses only the technical cookies necessary for basic operation and, where enabled, privacy-respecting aggregate analytics. We do not use advertising trackers or sell browsing data. You can disable cookies in your browser settings without losing access to any content on this site.

6. Data retention

We retain inquiry and engagement records for as long as reasonably necessary to serve you, comply with legal and regulatory obligations, and maintain the transaction records our profession requires. You may request deletion of your personal information at any time, subject to those obligations.

7. Security

We apply reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect personal information, including access controls and encrypted transmission where supported. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security; for highly sensitive financial documents, we provide secure delivery channels on request.

8. Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

9. Children's privacy

This website is intended for business audiences and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the latest revision. Material changes will be highlighted on this page.
