PRIVACY POLICY

Last updated November 05, 2025

This Privacy Policy for McClintock Facade Consulting LLC (‘We,’ ‘Us,’ or ‘Our’), describes how and why we might access, collect, store, use, and/or share (‘Process’) your personal information when you use our services (‘Services’) by visiting this website.

Reading this Privacy Policy should help you understand your privacy rights and choices. We are responsible for making decisions about how your personal information is processed. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our Services.

SUMMARY OF KEY POINTS

What personal information do we process?
We are facade consultants not IT experts and we consequently built our website using Boldgrid and WordPress. Both of those platforms apparently use cookies. We do not knowingly collect data from those cookies except to help us maintain the security of our Services, prevent crashes, fix bugs, save your preferences, and assist with basic site functions.

Our website has a Contact Us form (the ‘Contact Us Form’). Any data you furnish us through completing that form will be kept and used solely to respond to your query. If you don’t want us to know, keep, or use the data you enter into the Contact Us Form or to contact you, don’t complete and send the Contact Us Form.

Do we process any sensitive personal information?
Some information may be considered ‘special’ or ‘sensitive’ in certain jurisdictions, for example your racial or ethnic origins, sexual orientation, or religious beliefs. We do not process sensitive personal information.

Do we collect any information from third parties?
No.

How do we process your information?
We process your information to communicate with you in response to your completion of the Contact Us Form, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law. We process your information only when we have a valid legal reason to do so.

In what situations and with which parties do we share personal information?
We may store our business data on third-party computers and servers. Apart from that, we will only disclose your data when compelled by law to make such disclosure in a judicial, regulatory, or administrative process.

How do we keep your information safe?
We have reasonable organizational and technical processes and procedures in place to protect your personal information. However, no electronic transmission over the internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.

1. What information do we collect?
We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you express an interest in obtaining information about us or our Services.

The personal information provided by you that we collect may include the following:
• First and last names,
• Phone or mobile numbers,
• email addresses,
• Company names.

We do not process sensitive information.

2. How do we process your information?
We process your information to communicate with you in response to your completion of the Contact Us Form, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law. We may also use cookies as defined herein.

3. What legal basis do we rely on to process your information?
We only process your personal information when we believe it is necessary and we have a valid legal reason (i.e., legal basis) to do so under applicable law, like with your consent, to comply with laws, to provide you with services to enter into or fulfill our contractual obligations, to protect your rights, or to fulfill our legitimate business interests.

If you are located in the EU or UK:

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on in order to process your personal information. As such, we may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information:

  • Consent. We may process your information if you have given us permission (i.e., consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose by completing the Contact Us Form. You may use the Contact Us Form to withdraw your consent at any time.
  • Legal Obligations. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations, such as to cooperate with a law enforcement body or regulatory agency, exercise or defend our legal rights, or disclose your information as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.

If you are located in Canada:

We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (i.e., express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent). You may use the Contact Us Form to withdraw your consent at any time.

In some exceptional cases, we may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent, including, for example:

For investigations and fraud detection and prevention,

  • If it is contained in a witness statement and the collection is necessary to assess, process, or settle an insurance claim,
  • If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province,
  • If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records,
  • If it was produced by an individual in the course of their employment, business, or profession and the collection is consistent with the purposes for which the information was produced,
  • If the information is publicly available and is specified by the regulations.

4. When and with whom do we share your personal information?

We don’t share your data except as described below herein.

We Process your personal information at our operating offices and in any other places where the parties involved in the processing are located. This means that this information may be transferred to and maintained on computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ than those from your jurisdiction.

Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer.

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your data will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of your data.

5. Do we use cookies and other tracking technologies?

We are facade consultants not IT experts and we consequently built our website using Boldgrid and WordPress. Both of those platforms apparently use first-party and third-party cookies for functionality. First-party cookies are mostly necessary for the website to function the right way, and they do not collect any of your personally identifiable data. The third-party cookies used on our website are mainly for understanding how the website performs, keeping our services secure, and providing you with a better and improved user experience and help speed up your future interactions with our website.

We do not knowingly collect data from those cookies except to help us maintain the security of our Services, prevent crashes, fix bugs, save your preferences, and assist with basic site functions.

Our website has a cookie consent banner to opt out of third-party cookies. You can change your cookie preferences any time by clicking here to revisit the cookie consent banner and change your preferences.

In addition to this, different browsers provide different methods to block and delete cookies used by websites. You can change the settings of your browser to block/delete the cookies. Visit your browser’s official support documents for guidance on how to do this.

6. How long do we keep your information?

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

7. How do we keep your information safe?

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.

That notwithstanding, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services within a secure environment.

8. Do we collect information from minors?

We do not knowingly collect, solicit data from, or market to children under 18 years of age, nor do we knowingly sell such personal information. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18.

9. What are your privacy rights?

In some regions (like the EEA, UK, Switzerland, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure; (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information; (iv) if applicable, to data portability; and (v) not to be subject to automated decision-making. In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. You may make such a request through the Contact Us Form. We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

If you are located in the EEA or UK and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your Member State data protection authority or UK data protection authority.

If you are located in Switzerland, you may contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner.

Withdrawing your consent: If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, which may be express and/or implied consent depending on the applicable law, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You may withdraw your consent at any time through the Contact Us Form. However, note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect certain features or services of our Services.

10. Controls for do-not-track features

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (‘DNT’) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.

California law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognizing or honoring DNT signals, we do not respond to them at this time.

10. Do United States residents have specific privacy rights?

Category C – Professional or employment-related information (business contact details in order to provide you our Services at a business level)

We may also collect other personal information outside of these categories through instances where you interact with us in person, online, or by phone or mail in the context of facilitation in the delivery of our Services and to respond to your inquiries.

We won’t disclose your personal information unless compelled by law to make such disclosure in a judicial, regulatory, or administrative process.
We have not disclosed, sold, or shared any personal information to third parties for a business or commercial purpose in the preceding twelve (12) months. We will not sell or share personal information in the future.

Depending upon the state where you live, you may also have the following rights:
• Right to access the categories of personal data being processed (as permitted by applicable law, including Minnesota’s privacy law),
• Right to obtain a list of the categories of third parties to which we have disclosed personal data (as permitted by applicable law, including California’s and Delaware’s privacy law),

How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise these rights, you may contact us by submitting a data subject access request through the Contact Us Form.

Under certain US state data protection laws, you can designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. We may deny a request from an authorized agent that does not submit proof that they have been validly authorized to act on your behalf in accordance with applicable laws.

Request Verification

Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system. We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. However, if we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes.

If you submit the request through an authorized agent, we may need to collect additional information to verify your identity before processing your request and the agent will need to provide a written and signed permission from you to submit such request on your behalf.

Appeals

Under certain US state data protection laws, if we decline to take action regarding your request, you may appeal our decision contacting us through the Contact Us Form. We will inform you in writing of any action taken or not taken in response to the appeal, including a written explanation of the reasons for the decisions. If your appeal is denied, you may submit a complaint to your state attorney general.

California ‘Shine The Light’ Law

California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as the ‘Shine The Light’ law, permits our users who are California residents to request and obtain from us, once a year and free of charge, information about categories of personal information (if any) we disclosed to third parties for direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of all third parties with which we shared personal information in the immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident and would like to make such a request, please submit your request in writing to us by contacting us through the Contact Us Form.
