(McClure & Associates Construction, LLC)
Effective Date: June 26, 2024

3. EFFECTIVE DATE AND CHANGES TO PRIVACY POLICY
The Effective Date of this Privacy Policy is set forth at the top of this document. Whenever possible, we will provide you with advance written notice of our changes to this Privacy Policy. We will not make retroactive changes that reduce your privacy rights unless we are legally required to do so. Your continued use of the Services after the Effective Date constitutes your acceptance of the amended Privacy Policy. The amended Privacy Policy supersedes all previous versions.
4. PERSONAL INFORMATION VS. USAGE INFORMATION
“Personal Information” means information associated with or used to identify or contact a specific person. Personal Information includes: (1) contact data (such as e-mail address, telephone number and company name); (2) demographic data (such as gender, date of birth and zip code); and (3) certain Usage Data (defined below), such as IP address.
“Usage Information” or “Usage Data” is information about an individual's online activity that, by itself, does not identify the individual, such as browser type, operating system and webpages visited. Generally, we do not consider Usage Data as Personal Information because Usage Data by itself usually does not identify an individual. Personal Information and Usage Data may be linked together. Different types of Usage Information also may be linked together and, once linked, may identify an individual person. Also, some Usage Data may be Personal Information under applicable law.
5. SENSITIVE PERSONAL INFORMATION
Certain Personal Information, such as information about finances, is characterized as sensitive and subject to stricter regulation than other personal information. Before providing it to us, we urge you to carefully consider whether to disclose your sensitive Personal Information to us. If you do provide sensitive Personal Information to us, you consent to its use and disclosure for the purposes and in the manner described in this Privacy Policy.
6. LOCATION DATA
“Location Data” is a category of Personal Information collected about the location of a mobile device or computer, including:
a. the location of the mobile device or computer used to access the Services derived from GPS or WiFi use;
b. the IP address of the mobile device or computer or internet service used to access the Services; and
c. other information made available by a user or others that indicates the current or prior location of the user, such as information that you or others post indicating your location.
7. COMBINING INFORMATION FROM THIRD PARTY SOURCES
We may combine the information we collect from you with information from other sources and use the combined information as described in this Privacy Policy.
8. INFORMATION COLLECTION IN GENERAL
We collect information that you provide to us and from your use of the Services. The information that we collect and how we process it depends on how you use and access the Services. Some information is collected automatically through use of cookies and similar data collection tools. To learn more about how and why we use cookies and similar tools to collect information, please see Section 9 below:

9. COOKIES AND OTHER INFORMATION COLLECTION TOOLS
Cookies
We and the service providers that help us provide the Services use small text files called cookies.
“Cookies” are small computer files sent to or accessed from your web browser or your computer's or tablet's hard drive that contain information about your computer, such as a user ID, user settings, browsing history and activities conducted while using the Services. Cookies are not themselves personally identifiable, but may be linked to Personal Information that you provide to us through your interaction with the Services. A Cookie typically contains the name of the domain (internet location) from which the Cookie originated, the “lifetime” of the Cookie (i.e., when it expires) and a randomly generated unique number or similar identifier.
How We Use Data Collection Tools
Cookies help us improve the Services by tracking users' navigation habits and storing users' password, customizing users' experience with the Services; enabling us to analyze technical and navigational information about the Services; and helping to detect and prevent fraud.
We also use other Cookies and other data collection tools (such as web beacons and server logs), which we collectively refer to as “Data Collection Tools,” to help improve your experience with the Services.
The Services also may use Data Collection Tools to collect information from the device used to access the Services, such as operating system type, browser type, domain and other system settings, as well as the operating system used and the country and time zone in which the computer or device is located.
Control of Cookies
Web browsers allow some control of most Cookies through the browser settings.
Some web browsers (including some mobile web browsers) provide settings that allow a user to reject Cookies or to alert a user when a Cookie is placed on the user's computer, tablet or mobile device. Most mobile devices also offer settings to reject mobile device identifiers.
Although users are not required to accept Cookies or mobile device identifiers, blocking or rejecting them may prevent access to some features available through the Services.
10. THIRD PARTY TRACKING
Online Advertising.
Our advertising management partners use Data Collection Tools through the Services to enable them to recognize a unique Cookie that has been placed on a user's browser, which in turn enables us and these ad management partners to learn which advertisements bring users to the Services. In addition, we and our ad management partners may use these Data Collection Tools to track the actions of users of the Services, to measure statistics of our marketing efforts, and to deliver advertisements on the Services that may be more relevant to you.
We and our ad management partners also may use Data Collection Tools to record the actions of users of the Services, to measure statistics of our marketing efforts, to deliver advertisements on the Services that may be more relevant to individual consumers and to improve the consumer experience on the Services.
We support the Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising of the Digital Advertising Alliance (“Principles”). This means that we allow users to exercise choice regarding the collection of information about their online activities over time and across third-party websites for online interest-based advertising purposes.
Opting Out of Interest-Based Advertisements.
Users may “opt out” of receiving online interest-based advertisements by following the instructions at www.aboutads.info/choices or www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. After opting out, an “opt-out” Cookie will be placed on the user's device indicating that the user does not want to receive interest-based advertisements. If a user deletes Cookies generally, the user will need to opt-out again.
Opting out of interest-based advertising does not mean users will no longer see advertisements from us or on the Services; rather, opting out means that the online ads presented will not be based on the user's particular interests.
In addition, even after opting out of receiving interest-based advertisements, Data Collection Tools on the Services may collect information about users' activities on the Services, including for analytics, fraud prevention and any other purpose permitted under the Principles.
Data Collection by Third Parties.
Certain third parties that we do not control may use Data Collection Tools on the Services. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third parties or their Data Collection Tools.
11. HOW INFORMATION IS USED
We will not share your information with any third party except as described in this Privacy Policy. We may use the information we collect for any of the following purposes:

c. for customer service, security, to detect fraud or illegal activities, or and for archival and backup purposes in connection with the provision of the Services;

15. HOW INFORMATION IS RETAINED AND DISPOSED
We retain information as long as it is necessary and relevant for our operations. In addition, we retain personal information to comply with applicable law, prevent fraud, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigation, collect any fees owed and other actions permitted by law. After it is no longer necessary for us to retain information, we dispose of it according to our data retention and deletion policies.
16. HOW INFORMATION IS SECURED
We employ industry standard security measures designed to protect the security of all information submitted through the Services. However, the security of information transmitted through the internet can never be guaranteed. We are not responsible for any interception or interruption of any communications through the internet or for changes to or losses of data.
17. LINKED SERVICES
The Services may contain links to third-party websites and services (“Third Party Services”) with which we have no affiliation. A link to any Third Party Service does not mean that we endorse it or the quality or accuracy of information presented on it. If you decide to visit a Third Party Service, you are subject to its privacy policy and practices and not this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to carefully review the legal and privacy notices of all other digital services that you visit.
18. NOT CHILD-DIRECTED
The Services are not intended for use by children. If you are under the age of majority in your place of residence, you may use the Services only with the consent of or under the supervision of your parent or legal guardian.
Consistent with the requirements of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), if we learn that we have received any information directly from a child under age 13 without first receiving his or her parent's verified consent, we will use that information only to respond directly to that child (or his or her parent or legal guardian) to inform the child that he or she cannot use the Services and subsequently we will delete that information.
19. HOW WE RESPOND TO BROWSER “DO NOT TRACK”
Some web browsers (including Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome) incorporate a “Do Not Track” (DNT) or similar feature that signals to digital services that a visitor does not want to have his/her online activity tracked. If a digital service that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, the browser can block that digital service from collecting certain Personal Information about the browser's user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option and DNT signals are not yet uniform. For this reason, we and many other digital service operators may not respond to DNT signals.
20. EU PERSONAL INFORMATION PROCESSING
Any personal information collected about EU visitors through the Services is processed inthe United States by us or by a party acting on our behalf. When you provide personal information to us through the Services, you consent to the processing of your data in the United States. The Services are hosted in the United States.
