Privacy Policy for GMB Exorcism
Effective Date: May 17, 2026.
You are here because your Google My Business profile took a hit. You need negative signals removed. You need your local authority restored. You do not need another headache about how your personal data gets handled.
We wrote this privacy policy in plain English. We hate legal jargon. We respect your privacy.
The Data We Actually Collect
When you operate in the local SEO space, you see a lot of shady behavior. Competitors suggest malicious edits. Fake accounts leave one-star reviews. We deal with that noise daily. We refuse to add to it.
We only collect the data we absolutely need to help you fix your GMB issues.
You give us specific information when you fill out our contact form. We ask for your name. We ask for your email address. We ask for your exact Google Maps URL. We need the details of your suspension or the negative review attack.
We cannot audit a broken signal without seeing the raw damage. You type it in. We read it. We evaluate your situation.
We also collect automated data when you browse gmbexorcism.com. Your browser sends us basic technical details. We log your IP address. We note your browser type. We track which pages you visit. This happens in the background.
Data Required for GMB Audits
Fixing a suspended profile requires deep access. We ask for manager access to your GMB. We never ask for primary ownership.
Manager access gives us the granularity we need to spot malicious user edits. We look at the history of changes. We find the exact date the negative signal hit your profile. We map that against known Google algorithm updates.
We need this access to do our job. Once the exorcism is complete, you revoke our access. You retain total control.
Cookies and Web Analytics
We use cookies. They are small text files placed on your device. They reduce the friction of navigating our site.
We rely heavily on Google Analytics and Google Search Console. These tools illuminate our blind spots. They tell us which guides actually help people. If 500 people read our article on fighting fake negative reviews and bounce immediately, we know the content failed.
We rewrite it. We use this data strictly to improve content quality. We want to publish the most accurate GMB recovery tactics available. Analytics make that possible.
You control your cookies. Your browser settings allow you to block them entirely. You will still be able to read our guides. You will still be able to contact us.
How We Use Your Information
We use your data for three specific reasons.
First, we use it to communicate with you. You submit a contact form about a hard suspension. We use your email to reply. We use your GMB link to run a preliminary audit. We look at the damage and tell you if we can fix it.
Second, we use it to secure our own website. We monitor traffic patterns to block malicious bots. We protect our server from the same bad actors who spam local business listings.
Third, we use it to refine our operational focus. We look at aggregate data. We see a spike in traffic to our page on deceptive competitor edits. That tells us a new Google algorithm update triggered a wave of suspensions. We adjust our research accordingly.
Who Sees Your Data
We do not sell your personal information. We never have. We never will.
