Last Updated: June 5, 2026
Welcome to Phoenix 26 Consulting LLC (“we,” “our,” or “us”). We provide specialized consulting, educational courses, and assessment tools designed for first responder families. We deeply respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website, complete our assessments, or enroll in our OnDemand courses.
1. Our Commitment to Confidentiality and Independence
Your trust is paramount. We want you to feel entirely secure when sharing your information with us.
Strict Confidentiality: Any personal data, assessment answers, or course inputs you provide will remain strictly within Phoenix 26 Consulting LLC. We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties.
No Organizational Affiliation: Phoenix 26 Consulting LLC is a completely independent entity. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any specific first responder organizations, associations, unions, or departments. Your participation here is entirely separate from your employer or any official agency.
Anonymized & Aggregated Data Only: If we ever share data externally (for example, to demonstrate the impact of our courses or share general insights), it will always be presented in a summarized, aggregated, and completely anonymous format. Individual responses, names, and identifying details will never be shared.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information through three primary touchpoints:
A. Our Website (Squarespace)
When you browse our website, request information, or sign up to show interest in an upcoming resource, we may collect:
Contact information (such as your name and email address).

Deliver, maintain, and improve our courses, website content, and assessment tools.
Send you course materials, assessment results, and updates you have requested.
Provide personalized feedback or consulting support based on your inputs.
Communicate with you about upcoming releases, resources, or news from Phoenix 26 Consulting LLC (you can opt out of marketing emails at any time).
4. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. Your data is housed securely within our trusted platform providers (Squarespace, Jotform, and our LMS provider), all of which utilize secure encryption protocols.
However, please note that no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
5. Your Rights and Choices
You have control over your data. At any time, you may:
Request access to the personal information we hold about you.
