Marin County, CAIn person or remote
Slow computers. Wi-Fi that quits. Your address on people-search sites. Accounts you're locked out of. Marin Tech is one local expert for both sides of your digital life — the devices you rely on, and the personal information you'd rather keep to yourself.
No subscriptions. No contracts. $59/hour, agreed before we start.
01 Services
Everything digital, covered from both sides — by the same person.
Take your personal information off the market — and keep it that way.
Patient, judgment-free help with the technology you use every day.
02 What we do
A few of the things people call us for — half privacy, half tech, all handled by the same person.
Your address and phone number are listed for anyone to find. We locate your listings, submit removals, and watch for them coming back.
Dead zones, dropped calls, mystery slowdowns — we sort out your home network so it just works, in every room.
We review what's public, tune privacy settings across your platforms, and set up a password manager you'll actually use.
New phone or computer? We set it up properly, move your data over, and make sure nothing gets left behind.
We show you exactly how today's scam texts, calls, and emails work — with real examples — so you can spot them instantly.
Photos, files, and memories backed up automatically — plus account recovery help if you're already locked out.
Freelancer or small team? We do the same for businesses — setup, access organization, and security hygiene, by the hour.
03 Why Marin Tech
Every week it's the same stories: a computer that's slowed to a crawl. Wi-Fi that gives up in the back bedroom. Spam calls that started the day your address appeared on a people-search site. An account you're locked out of at the worst possible moment. None of it is your fault — modern technology simply asks too much of the people using it. That's the gap Marin Tech exists to close.
The same person who knows your setup — not a call center.
In-person across the county, remote anywhere.
Clear explanations, zero condescension, every question welcome.
Real expectations, agreed pricing, no scare tactics.
When you call, you get me — not a queue. I started Marin Tech because I grew up with this technology and speak it natively, and I'd rather put that to work for my neighbors than watch them get talked down to or upsold. I show up on time, explain things in plain English, fix what's fixable, tell you the truth about what isn't, and leave you a written summary you can actually use. Whether it's making your tech finally behave or getting your personal information off the market, my job is to make your digital life feel manageable again — and your trust matters more to me than any single visit.

06 Questions
Two things, equally: everyday technology and digital privacy. On the tech side — computers, phones, Wi-Fi, printers, email, new-device setup, backups, and account recovery. On the privacy side — data-broker and people-search removal help, account and privacy-settings reviews, password organization, and scam prevention. Most clients end up using both.
One simple rate: $59 per hour with a one-hour minimum, in person across Marin County or remote. No subscriptions, no contracts. We agree on scope and an estimate before any work begins — and it starts with a free 15-minute consultation.
Yes — that's the point. We explain everything in plain language, work at your pace, and welcome every question. Many of our clients would never call themselves tech-savvy, and that's exactly who we designed this service for.
Yes. We support freelancers and small teams with device and account setup, team access organization, security hygiene, and privacy best practices — billed at the same hourly rate, with no retainer required.
No — and anyone who promises that isn't being honest with you. What we can do is meaningfully reduce your exposure: find your listings on data-broker and people-search sites, submit removal and opt-out requests, and re-run them periodically as information reappears.
Removed data often returns within a few months, so periodic re-checks — billed hourly, never as a subscription — keep it low over time.
We're based in Marin County and serve the whole county — San Rafael, Novato, Mill Valley, Sausalito, Corte Madera, Larkspur, Tiburon, and beyond — plus the greater San Francisco Bay Area. In-person locally, remote anywhere.
