1. Who we are
This site is operated by ConstructionWebExperts.com ("we", "us", "our") — a web design and SEO agency for the US construction industry, based in Austin, Texas. For privacy purposes we are the business responsible for the personal information collected here. If you have any questions about this policy or your data, email us at hello@constructionwebexperts.com.
2. What data we collect
We only collect what we actually need to help you. That means:
- Information you give us — your name, email, phone number, company name, and any details you share when you fill in our contact form, book a call, or email us.
- Information collected automatically — your IP address, browser type, device, pages viewed, time on site, and referring URL. We use this to understand how the site is performing.
- Cookies — small files stored on your device. See section 6 below.
We do not ask for or store sensitive personal data (like financial details, health, or anything similar) through this website.
3. Why we collect it
We use your data for these specific purposes:
- To respond to your inquiry and price your project.
- To deliver the work you've hired us for.
- To send you proposals, invoices, and project updates.
- To improve the site and the way we serve construction firms.
- To send occasional emails about our services, but only if you've opted in. You can unsubscribe at any time with one click.
4. Why we are allowed to use it
We use your information to perform our contract with you (when you've hired us), to run and improve the business (responding to inquiries, maintaining the site), with your consent (marketing emails, non-essential cookies), and to meet our legal and tax obligations (IRS and accounting records). We do not sell or share your personal information as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act.
5. Who we share it with
We don't sell your data. Ever. We share it only with trusted suppliers who help us run the business:
- Email and CRM tools (e.g. Google Workspace, HubSpot)
- Hosting and analytics providers (e.g. Vercel, Google Analytics)
- Payment and accounting providers (e.g. Stripe, QuickBooks)
- Government agencies or law enforcement if legally required
Our providers are contractually required to protect your information and to use it only to deliver the service we hired them for. Where a provider is based outside the United States, we make sure the transfer is covered by appropriate safeguards.
6. Cookies
We use a small number of cookies to keep the site working and to understand traffic.
- Essential cookies — required for the site to function. These cannot be turned off.
- Analytics cookies — used to count visits and see which pages perform. Anonymized. Set only if you accept.
- Marketing cookies — only used if you fill in a form or click through from a paid ad. You can decline these.
You can clear or block cookies any time from your browser settings. Doing so might break parts of the site.
7. How long we keep it
Inquiry data: up to 24 months from your last interaction. Client records: 7 years after the engagement ends (federal and state tax rules). Analytics: rolled-up indefinitely, but never tied to identifying details.
8. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, state privacy laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act, the Virginia CDPA, the Colorado Privacy Act and the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act may give you these rights. We extend them to everyone who contacts us, wherever you are:
- Ask for a copy of the information we hold on you
- Correct anything inaccurate
- Ask us to delete it (where we don't need it for legal reasons)
- Opt out of marketing, targeted advertising, or any sale or sharing of your information
- Withdraw consent at any time
- Be free from retaliation for exercising any of these rights
To exercise any of these, email hello@constructionwebexperts.com. We'll respond within 45 days. If you are unhappy with our response you can contact your state attorney general's office.
9. How we keep your data safe
Encrypted connections (HTTPS), strong passwords with two-factor auth, access on a need-to-know basis, and reputable suppliers. We can't promise the internet is 100% safe — nobody can — but we treat your data the way we'd want ours treated.
10. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top. For any material change we'll email anyone we've got an active relationship with.
