What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to determine whether you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture may be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Contact Forms and Employment Inquiries

When you submit information through forms on our website, including contact forms, quote requests, newsletter signups, or employment inquiries, we may collect personal information such as your name, company name, email address, phone number, resume, and any other information you choose to provide.

We use this information to respond to inquiries, provide requested information, evaluate employment opportunities, and communicate with you regarding our products, services, and business activities.

Forms submitted through our website may be processed using third-party services including Gravity Forms and HubSpot.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to improve functionality, analyze website traffic, and enhance your browsing experience.

We use CookieYes to manage cookie consent preferences and provide visitors with control over the types of cookies used on our website. You may update your cookie preferences at any time through the cookie settings available on our website.

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These cookies are for your convenience and allow you to avoid re-entering your information when leaving future comments. These cookies typically remain active for one year.

Additional cookies may be used by analytics, embedded content, and third-party services integrated with our website.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and other analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with our website. These tools may collect information such as:

  • IP address (where permitted and applicable)
  • Browser and device information
  • Geographic region
  • Pages visited
  • Time spent on pages
  • Traffic sources
  • Website interactions

This information helps us improve website performance, content, functionality, and user experience.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles, pages, or other content on this site may include embedded content such as videos, maps, images, documents, or articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same manner as if the visitor had visited the originating website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking technologies, and monitor your interaction with their content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

We may share information with trusted third-party service providers that help us operate our website and business, including website hosting providers, analytics providers, customer relationship management platforms, marketing tools, recruiting systems, and form-processing services.

These providers may include:

  • Google Analytics
  • HubSpot
  • Gravity Forms
  • CookieYes
  • Website hosting and security providers

We do not sell or rent personal information to third parties.

We may also disclose information when required by law or when necessary to protect our rights, property, safety, or legal interests.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

If you submit information through a contact form, employment application, or other website form, we may retain that information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, maintain business records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings configured within our analytics platforms.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have submitted personal information through our forms or have left comments, you may request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any information you have provided to us.

You may also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include information we are required to retain for administrative, legal, security, or regulatory purposes.

Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments may be checked through automated spam detection services.

Information submitted through forms may be processed by trusted third-party service providers that support our website operations, communications, recruiting activities, and customer relationship management.
