Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 3, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how the Play the Room website collects, uses, and protects information when you visit https://playtheroom.swats.ai or contact Dagan through the site. Play the Room is the book and speaking brand of Dagan Martinez-Vargas, based in Austin, Texas.

Information we collect

  • Details you send us. When you use the contact form, we collect the name, email, phone, company or organization, area of interest, event date, and message you provide.
  • Usage data. If you accept analytics cookies, we collect anonymized information about how you use the site (pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type).
  • Technical logs. Our hosting provider records standard server logs such as IP address and request time for security and reliability.

Cookies and analytics

We use necessary cookies to make the site work. With your consent, we also use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. Analytics only loads after you accept the analytics category in our cookie banner, and the related cookies are cleared if you later decline. You can change your choice at any time with the Cookies link in the footer.

Spam protection (reCAPTCHA)

The contact form is protected by Google reCAPTCHA, which helps us tell humans from bots. Your use of reCAPTCHA is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

How we use your information

  • To respond to your inquiry about the book, speaking, consulting, or a bulk order.
  • To understand and improve how the site is used (only with analytics consent).
  • To keep the site secure and prevent abuse.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for unrelated marketing.

Who we share it with

We share information only with service providers that help us run the site: an email delivery provider that sends us your contact message, Google for analytics and reCAPTCHA, and our hosting provider. Links to Amazon and social networks are external; their own privacy policies apply once you leave this site.

Data retention

We keep contact messages only as long as needed to respond to you and maintain a reasonable record of the conversation. Analytics data is retained according to our analytics provider's standard retention settings.

Your choices

  • Decline analytics cookies, or withdraw consent later with the Cookies link in the footer.
  • Ask us to access or delete the contact details you sent us.

Children

The site is intended for a general business audience and is not directed to children under 13.
