Privacy Policy

This Policy covers Grounded Wealth, LLC, a Minnesota Registered Investment Adviser subject to SEC Regulation S-P. We collect the minimum information necessary to serve clients and operate this website. We never sell personal information.

Information we collect

  • Contact information you provide through forms on this site (name, email, optional phone).
  • Information required to onboard you as a client, including government identification, financial account information, and tax documents, collected under written engagement.
  • Technical information automatically collected by our hosting provider and analytics tools, including IP address, device type, browser, referrer, and pages visited.

How we use it

  • To respond to inquiries and schedule conversations you request.
  • To provide advisory services under a written agreement.
  • To meet regulatory, legal, and audit obligations.
  • To improve the content and performance of this website.

What we do not do

  • We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
  • We do not share your information with third parties for their marketing purposes.
  • We do not use your data to train public AI models.

Identity verification and payments

Where identity verification is required, we use Stripe Identity. The process may involve government-issued identification and biometric comparison technology, processed by Stripe under its own terms and privacy policy. Payment card data is processed directly by Stripe in accordance with PCI DSS standards and is not stored on our systems. AUM-based advisory fees, where applicable, are debited directly from your custodial account under your written authorization rather than collected through this site.

We share information only with service providers engaged to support operations (e.g., qualified custodians, planning platforms, identity-verification and payment processors, email and analytics vendors) under written agreements that restrict their use of the data, or when required by law. For California residents (CCPA/CPRA) and EU residents (GDPR), additional rights apply on request: access, correction, deletion, portability, and opt-out of certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact privacy@groundedwealth.com.

Regulation S-P, retention, and minors

As a Registered Investment Adviser, Grounded Wealth is subject to SEC Regulation S-P; we deliver this Policy at engagement and annually thereafter, and do not share nonpublic personal financial information with unaffiliated third parties except as permitted by law. Grounded Wealth retains client records for a minimum of five years as required by SEC rules. Our services are not directed to individuals under 18.

Material changes

Material changes to this Policy will be communicated at least 30 days before they take effect. Continued use of the services after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

If you do not agree, please do not use the Services. You represent that you are at least 18 years of age and have legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

Informational only — no advisory relationship from Site use

All content on the Site is provided for informational, educational, and planning purposes only. Nothing here is intended as, and nothing should be construed as, personalized investment, tax, accounting, or legal advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell any security.

No performance guarantees

Past performance is not indicative of future results. All investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Hypothetical or illustrative figures presented on the Site assume specific inputs, are not projections, and will differ materially from actual client experiences.

Identity verification and payments

To access certain services, you may be required to complete identity verification through Stripe Identity, our third-party identity-verification provider. Payment processing is handled by Stripe under PCI DSS standards. AUM-based advisory fees, where applicable, are debited directly from your custodial account under your written authorization. By proceeding with identity verification or payment, you agree to Stripe’s terms and privacy policy in addition to these Terms.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Grounded Wealth, LLC disclaims all warranties, express or implied, and shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Services.

Governing law and dispute resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Disputes arising from the Services shall be resolved by binding arbitration in Minneapolis, Minnesota under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm. This arbitration provision does not apply to claims under applicable securities laws.

Modifications

We may modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated at least 30 days before they take effect. Provisions that by their nature survive termination — including intellectual property, disclaimers, indemnification, and limitation of liability — survive any termination of your access to the Services.
