How young is GMZ — and why should I trust a 2026 agency?

We're honest about it: GMZ was founded in June 2026. The company is young; the operators are not — nearly a decade in performance marketing before founding. We earn trust with audits and weekly cadence, not with a fabricated track record. If we can't show you the math, we won't take the engagement.

Do you lock clients into long contracts?

No. Retainers run on 90-day plans with no long lock-in. If the work isn't earning its keep, you should be able to leave — and we'd rather you tell us than quietly disengage.

How do you report — and how often?

Weekly. A short note on what changed, why, and what's next. Monthly is a review workshop with a prioritized plan for the next 30 days. We report against the metric we moved, not the activity we did.

Do you work with businesses outside Hyderabad?

Yes. We're headquartered in Hyderabad but work across India and remote-first for clients who can meet over video. Local SEO and hyperlocal work are obviously location-specific — everything else travels.

What's the smallest engagement you'll take?

A scoped audit or a single-channel project. We won't take a retainer we can't realistically move the needle on — if the budget doesn't support the work, we'll say so and point you to a project instead.

Do you actually use AI — or is it in the deck?

In the stack, not the deck. We use AI for content operations, semantic clustering, and reporting — with humans reviewing every output. The 'AI Marketing Automation' service exists because it produces measurable leverage, not because it's a buzzword.

1. Introduction & Scope

This Privacy Policy explains how Global Marketing Zone (“GMZ,” “we,” “us”) — a digital marketing services provider based in Hi Tech City, Hyderabad — collects, processes, stores, and protects your personal data. It applies to every interaction you have with us through our website (www.globalmarketingzone.in), our consultation forms, our email and phone channels, and any engagements we enter into with you.

This policy is published in compliance with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (“DPDP Act”). It does not apply to third-party platforms we may help you operate (such as Google Ads, Meta Ads, or your own CMS) — those are governed by their respective terms.

2. Data We Collect

We collect the following categories of personal data:

Identity & Contact Data — your name, email address, phone number, job title, and company name, submitted via our consultation form, audit tool, or email/calls.
Project Data — information you share with us about your business, target audience, website, ad accounts, and marketing objectives, so we can deliver and improve our services.
Usage Data — information collected automatically when you visit our website, including IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referral source, and timestamps, collected via cookies and analytics tools.
Communication Data — records of your correspondence with us (emails, call notes, WhatsApp messages, form submissions), retained to provide service continuity and for legitimate record-keeping.

3. How We Collect Data

Directly from you — when you fill out a form, request a consultation, subscribe to our newsletter, email or call us, or share access to your platforms for service delivery.
Automatically — when you visit our website, through cookies, server logs, and analytics tools (Google Analytics 4). See our Cookie Policy for details.
From third parties — limited to information you have authorized to be shared with us (e.g., Google/Meta ad account access you grant us for campaign management).

4. Why We Process Your Data

For each purpose below, we state the legal basis under the DPDP Act:

To respond to your inquiries and consultations — Legal basis: consent (you submitted the form) and legitimate use (responding to a request you initiated).
To deliver our services — Legal basis: contractual necessity (engagement agreement with you) and legitimate use.
To send our newsletter and updates — Legal basis: consent. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email.
To improve our website and services — Legal basis: legitimate use (website analytics, aggregated and anonymized where possible).
To meet legal, tax, and regulatory obligations — Legal basis: legal obligation (e.g., maintaining GST-compliant invoices, statutory records).
To detect and prevent fraud or abuse — Legal basis: legitimate use.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes set out above, and as required by law:

Consultation requests and inquiries — 12 months from your last interaction, then deleted or anonymized.
Newsletter subscribers — until you unsubscribe; unsubscribed records are deleted within 30 days.
Active client engagement records — for the duration of the engagement + 7 years for legal/tax compliance.
Website analytics — aggregated indefinitely; raw event data retained for 14 months (Google Analytics 4 default).
Audit tool requests — 90 days for follow-up; raw URL/email data then deleted.

7. Data Transfer

Your personal data is primarily processed on servers located in India. However, some of our processors (e.g., Google, Vercel) may store or process data on servers outside India. Where this happens, we take reasonable safeguards — including contractual data protection clauses and reliance on processors with mature privacy programs — to ensure your data is protected to a standard consistent with the DPDP Act.
