What Data We Collect and Why
Contact and Quote Forms
When you submit a contact or quote request form on our site, we collect your name, company name, email address, phone number, and the details you provide in your message. We use this information solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not sell or share this data with third parties for marketing purposes.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to help the site function and to understand how visitors use it. You can control cookie use through the consent banner displayed when you first visit the site.
If you submit a form, your browser may save your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience so you do not need to re-enter them on future visits. These cookies last for one year.
Comments
If our site includes a comments feature and you leave a comment, we collect the data shown in the comment form along with your IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection. An anonymized hash of your email address may be shared with the Gravatar service to display a profile image if you use one. Gravatar's privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Approved comments and profile pictures are visible to the public.
Media Uploads
If you upload images to the site, please be aware that uploaded images may contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract any such location data. We recommend removing location data from images before uploading.
Third-Party Services
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics collects information such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time spent on the site. This data is processed by Google and is subject to Google's Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Google Analytics uses cookies to track sessions and user behavior. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
YouTube
Our website embeds video content hosted on YouTube (owned by Google). When a YouTube video loads on our site, YouTube may set cookies and collect data including your IP address and browsing activity, even if you do not play the video. This data is subject to Google's Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy. We use privacy-enhanced embed settings where possible to limit data collection prior to video playback.
Google Maps
Our website may use Google Maps to display location information. When Google Maps loads, Google may collect your IP address and location data. This is subject to Google's Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Pages on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or other media from third-party websites. Embedded content behaves as if you had visited that third-party website directly. Those sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content — including if you are logged in to an account on that third-party site.
How Long We Retain Your Data
Form submissions and inquiry data are retained as long as necessary to fulfill your request and maintain business records, after which they are deleted or anonymized.
Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely to support moderation of follow-up comments. If you have an account on this site, your user profile information is retained until you request deletion.
Who We Share Your Data With
We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with trusted service providers who assist us in operating our website and conducting our business (such as Google Analytics), solely for those purposes and subject to confidentiality obligations.
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Your Rights Over Your Data
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, to request corrections, or to request deletion of your data. To make a request, contact us at info@redballows.com. Note that we may be required to retain certain data for legal, administrative, or security purposes.
Cookies and Consent
When you first visit our site, you will be presented with a cookie consent notice. You may accept all cookies, decline non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences. Declining analytics cookies will prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visit.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of certain features on the site.
Children's Privacy
Our website is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
