2. What we collect
Information you give us
You may give us information through the contact form, the chat, the planning tools, or by email, call or text. That can include your name, contact details, a property address, project details, messages and photos.
Please do not send payment card numbers, government ID numbers or passwords through the website or by email.
Information collected automatically
When you visit, we and our service providers may receive your IP address, an approximate location from that IP address, your browser and device, the pages you view, the referring page, timestamps, security logs and site usage analytics.
This can include actions you take on the site, such as tapping call or text, sending a form, or using a planning tool or lab.
3. How we use it
We use personal information to:
- reply to you
- scope, price and schedule your project
- run the planning tools
- keep business records
- keep the site secure and prevent spam
- understand and improve the site
- notice interest in our services
- meet legal, tax and licensing obligations
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not build advertising profiles.
4. Cookies and similar technologies
We use analytics cookies to understand how the site is used. We do not use them for ads.
We use strictly necessary security checks to block spam and bots.
Our planning tools use functional local storage that stays on your device. The chat keeps a copy of the conversation on your device.
Embedded tools and services may set their own cookies.
We do not use advertising cookies, advertising pixels or remarketing.
You can block or delete cookies and local storage in your browser settings. If you block some of them, parts of the site may not work.
5. Who we share it with
We share personal information with service providers that help us run the business and the site. They process it only to provide their service to us. They may not use it to advertise to you on our behalf. The categories are:
- website hosting and security
- analytics
- email and form delivery
- messaging
- mapping and address lookup
We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect rights or safety, or to a buyer if the business is sold or merged.
6. Your California privacy rights
This section is our notice at collection for California residents under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA). We offer these rights to California visitors.
In the last 12 months we collected the categories below.
| Category | Examples | Why we collect it | How long we keep it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Identifiers | Name, email address, phone number, IP address | To reply to you, run the planning tools, prevent spam and keep the site secure | Project and customer records are kept until you ask us to delete them, except records we must keep by law. Server logs are held by our hosting provider under its own retention schedule. |
| Contact and customer records | Name, phone, email, service area or ZIP, and property details you give us | To follow up, schedule visits, quote and invoice | Kept until you ask us to delete them, except records we must keep by law. |
| Commercial information | Services you asked about, project details, camera and storage plans, and quotes | To scope and price projects, and to keep business records | Kept until you ask us to delete them, except records we must keep by law. |
| Internet or other electronic network activity | Pages viewed, referring page, browser and device, timestamps, security logs and site usage analytics | To run, secure and improve the site, and to notice interest in our services | Server logs are held by our hosting provider under its own retention schedule. Analytics data is kept for up to 14 months. |
| Geolocation (approximate) | City or region from your IP address, and the location of a property from an address you enter | To understand where a job is and to run the planning tools | Address and project details are kept with project records, as described above. |
We collect this information directly from you, and automatically from your browser or device.
In the last 12 months we disclosed these categories to service providers for business purposes. Those providers are in these categories: website hosting and security, analytics, email and form delivery, messaging, and mapping and address lookup. We have not sold personal information or shared it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Sale and sharing
No. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We have not done so in the past 12 months. Because we do not sell or share, we do not offer a "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals and other browser opt-out preference signals. Since we do not sell or share, there is nothing to switch off.
Some browsers send a Do Not Track signal. We do not sell or share personal information, and we do not use advertising cookies, so that signal does not change how this site handles your information.
We do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of anyone under 16.
Sensitive personal information
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information, such as government ID numbers, account logins, precise geolocation or health information. A home address you give us can be sensitive in some cases. We use a property address only to plan and carry out the work you ask for. We do not use it to infer characteristics about you. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for any purpose that would give you a right to limit that use.
Retention
We keep the personal information you give us, and our project and customer records, until you ask us to delete them, except records we must keep for legal, tax, licensing or warranty reasons. Server logs are held by our hosting provider under its own retention schedule. Analytics data is kept for up to 14 months.
Your rights
If you are a California resident, you have the right to:
- Know what personal information we collected about you, where it came from, why we collected it, who we disclosed it to, and get a copy of the specific information we hold
- Delete personal information we collected from you, with some exceptions (for example records we must keep by law)
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information (we do not sell or share)
- Limit use of sensitive personal information (we do not use it in ways that trigger this right)
- Non-discrimination. We will not deny you service, charge you a different price, or give you a lower quality of service because you used your rights
How to make a request
Email office@gbittech.net or call or text (818) 809-6743. Please say that it is a privacy request, which right you want to use, and how to reach you. We cannot take requests by any other channel unless we tell you otherwise.
Verification. To protect your information, we need to confirm it is really you. We will usually ask you to confirm details we already have, such as the email or phone number you used and the property or project you contacted us about. We will not ask for more than we need, and we will use what you give us only to verify your request.
Authorized agents. You may use an authorized agent to make a request for you. We will ask for written proof that you gave permission, and we may still need to verify your identity with you directly.
Timing. We confirm receipt within 10 business days and respond within 45 days. If we need more time, up to another 45 days, we will tell you why. The information we give you covers the 12 months before your request, and longer where the law or our records allow. There is no fee unless a request is clearly excessive or repeated.
If we deny a request, we will explain why.
Shine the Light
California Civil Code section 1798.83 lets California residents ask which personal information a business shared with third parties for their direct marketing. We do not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
7. Data security
The site uses an encrypted connection. Access to personal information is limited to people who need it for their work. No system is perfectly secure.
8. Children
This website is for property owners, managers and businesses. It is not directed to children under 13, or to minors under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you think a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Links to other sites
Our pages may link to other sites, including manufacturer pages and social media. Social links open on those sites. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please read their policies.
10. Changes
We may update this policy. The "Last updated" date at the top shows when it last changed. If we make a significant change, we will post a notice on this website.
