Agentic Landmark · agenticlandmark.com · Last updated June 2026
Agentic Landmark is an advisory practice operated by Jim Cook. Its services are directed to organizations in the United States. This policy describes what personal information this site handles, why, and what your choices are. It is written to the standard of the world's stricter privacy regimes because this practice advises on consent architecture, and its own policy should meet the bar it sets for clients.
What this site collects, and why
Inquiries. If you use the contact form, the practice receives your name, work email, your message, and any optional fields you choose to complete (vertical, role, and the page you arrived from). This is used for one purpose: to evaluate and respond to your inquiry. The lawful basis is legitimate interest in responding to people who contact a business.
The practice deliberately separates your contact details from its long-term working records. When you submit the form, your full inquiry, including your name and email, reaches the practitioner in two places: a notification email, and a row in a private spreadsheet that serves as the practice's inquiry inbox. For inquiries that become active prospects, the practitioner records only the business context (your message, vertical, role, and source page) as a pipeline record in a private repository, linked back to your inquiry by a reference. Your name and email are never carried into that pipeline; they remain in the notification email and the inbox.
The Landmark Brief. If you subscribe to the practice's publication, your email address is held by Ghost, the membership and publishing platform this site runs on, and used solely to deliver new issues. The lawful basis is your consent. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing removes you from delivery immediately. Subscriber information stays in Ghost and is not copied into any other system.
Security and technical processing. The contact form submits to a Google Apps Script endpoint, so Google processes your submission in transit. The site's hosting platform keeps standard server logs. The site's typefaces load from Google Fonts, which means your IP address is transmitted to Google when a page loads. The site sets only strictly necessary cookies (Ghost's membership session cookies); it runs no analytics trackers, no advertising pixels, and no marketing cookies, which is why you will not see a cookie consent banner here.
What this site does not do
Your information is never sold, rented, or shared for advertising. There are no ad networks, no data brokers, no lookalike audiences, and no enrichment services. The practice does not use your inquiry to add you to a mailing list; contacting the practice and subscribing to the Brief are separate choices, and neither triggers the other.
Service providers
The practice uses a small number of providers to operate this site, each receiving only what its function requires: Ghost (site hosting, publishing, and Brief membership), Google (form processing through Apps Script, email and the inquiry inbox through Google Workspace, and typeface delivery), GitHub (private pipeline records containing inquiry context without contact details), Anthropic (the AI tool that reads that pipeline context during prospect research, receiving no contact details), and Cloudflare (domain and DNS).
How this practice uses AI
Agentic Landmark advises brands on agent-mediated discovery and buying, so it should be plain about where AI sits in its own work. The practice uses Anthropic's Claude as a working tool: for research, for drafting and editing content, for developing methodology, and for building and maintaining this site.
One part of this meets your inquiry. Once an inquiry becomes an active prospect, the practice runs an agentic workflow: an automated process in which a software agent built on Claude assembles a first-pass research dossier on its own. The agent reads that prospect's pipeline record (the business context described above, with no contact details) and gathers publicly available information about the company, then opens its draft for the practitioner to review before anything is used. It works only from business context and public information, it never reads your contact details, and it never contacts you. Consistent with the separation described above, your name and email stay in the notification email and the inquiry inbox and are not sent to any AI tool. Nothing you provide is used to train AI models.
This section is provided as a matter of transparency about how the practice works. The providers that process your personal data, including the AI tool above, are listed under "Service providers" above.
International transfers
The practice and its providers process data in the United States. Where providers transfer data from the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, they rely on recognized safeguards: Cloudflare and Google are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, and providers otherwise use standard contractual clauses.
Retention
Inquiry emails and the entries in the inquiry inbox are kept while an engagement conversation is live or reasonably prospective, then deleted. Pipeline records, which contain no contact details, are kept as business records. Subscriber emails are kept until you unsubscribe. You may request earlier deletion of anything at any time.
Your rights
Wherever you are located, the practice honors the rights the strictest regimes grant: you may request access to the personal information held about you, correction of it, deletion of it, restriction of or objection to its processing, a portable copy of it, and withdrawal of any consent you have given. To exercise any of these, email hello@agenticlandmark.com and you will receive a response within thirty days. If you are in the EEA or UK, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.
Scope and changes
This site and the practice's services are directed to organizations in the United States. This policy will be updated as the site's data practices change, with the date above revised accordingly; material changes to how inquiry or subscriber data is handled will be noted prominently.
