2. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our Site may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, understand how visitors use it, measure advertising performance, prevent fraud, and improve our services and marketing.

These technologies may include:

Essential Cookies

These cookies support basic Site operation, security, form functionality, and other features necessary for the Site to function.

Analytics Cookies

These technologies help us understand how visitors use our Site, including which pages are visited, how users navigate the Site, and how the Site performs.

These technologies may help us:

  • Determine whether someone visited our Site after interacting with an advertisement

  • Measure advertising conversions

  • Attribute calls, form submissions, or other actions to advertising campaigns

  • Understand which advertisements and campaigns generate customer inquiries

  • Create advertising audiences based on prior Site visits

  • Display more relevant advertising to previous Site visitors

  • Measure and improve the effectiveness of our advertising

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Depending on your location and applicable law, additional cookie or privacy controls may also be made available through the Site.

Blocking or deleting certain cookies may affect Site functionality and may reduce our ability to measure advertising performance.

3. Google Analytics and Google Advertising Technologies

We may use services provided by Google, including Google Analytics, Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads conversion tracking, remarketing or audience features, and related measurement technologies.

When these services are enabled, Google and Tekota Builds may use cookies, tags, device identifiers, advertising identifiers, and similar technologies to collect or process information about your interaction with our Site and our advertising.

This information may include:

  • Pages you visit

  • Actions you take on our Site

  • Your browser or device information

  • Approximate location

  • IP address or information derived from an IP address

  • Advertising campaign information

  • Google Ads click identifiers

  • Whether you submitted a contact or consultation form

  • Whether you called Tekota Builds after interacting with an advertisement

  • Other information used to measure advertising performance

Google may receive information automatically from your browser when you visit a website using Google advertising or analytics services.

A. Google Ads Conversion Tracking

We may use Google Ads conversion tracking to determine whether users who interact with our advertisements later take actions such as:

  • Visiting our Site

  • Requesting an estimate or consultation

  • Submitting a contact form

  • Calling our business

  • Engaging with certain Site features

Google Ads conversion tracking may use cookies or similar identifiers to associate a Site interaction with an earlier advertisement interaction.

We use this information to measure advertising effectiveness, improve our campaigns, and better understand which advertising efforts generate legitimate customer inquiries.

B. Enhanced Conversions

We may use Google’s enhanced conversion measurement features.

When you voluntarily submit information such as your email address, phone number, name, or address through our Site, certain information may be transformed using a one-way cryptographic hashing process before being transmitted to Google for advertising measurement and attribution.

Enhanced conversion information may be used to help determine whether an advertising interaction resulted in a customer inquiry, qualified lead, consultation, or other conversion event.

We do not provide the content of SMS messages or your SMS marketing opt-in or opt-out status to Google for the purpose of building third-party marketing lists.

C. Google Analytics

We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our Site.

Google Analytics may collect information about Site usage, browser and device characteristics, general geographic information, and interactions with Site content.

We use this information to:

  • Measure Site traffic

  • Understand how visitors find our Site

  • Identify popular or useful content

  • Diagnose Site performance issues

  • Improve our website and customer experience

  • Evaluate advertising and marketing performance

D. Remarketing and Advertising Audiences

We may use Google Ads remarketing, audience, or similar advertising features.

These technologies may allow Tekota Builds to advertise to people who previously visited our Site or interacted with our business online.

Third-party vendors, including Google, may display Tekota Builds advertisements on Google properties and on other websites, apps, or online services.

Google and other advertising providers may use cookies, advertising identifiers, device identifiers, or similar technologies to serve or measure advertisements based in part on a person’s previous visits to our Site.

You may manage Google’s personalized advertising settings through Google’s My Ad Center or Ads Settings. You may also use browser settings, device privacy settings, or other industry opt-out tools to limit certain forms of personalized advertising.

E. Google Analytics Opt-Out

Google provides a Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on that can be used to prevent Google Analytics JavaScript from sharing information about your website visit activity with Google Analytics.

Please understand that disabling Google Analytics does not necessarily prevent Tekota Builds or other service providers from collecting information through other technologies.

4. Advertising Call Tracking

We may use Google Ads call reporting or other call-measurement technologies to understand whether phone calls resulted from our advertising.

When Google Ads call reporting is enabled, Google may display a Google forwarding telephone number in an advertisement or on our Site. Calls placed to that number are routed to Tekota Builds’ actual business telephone number.

Call measurement may collect information such as:

  • Date and time of the call

  • Duration of the call

  • Whether the call connected

  • Advertising campaign or source associated with the call

  • General calling location

  • Caller telephone number where available

  • Other technical information used to measure call conversions

We use this information to evaluate advertising effectiveness and understand which campaigns generate legitimate customer inquiries.

The use of advertising call tracking does not change the telephone number at which Tekota Builds ultimately receives your call.

5. How We Use Information

We may use personal information to:

  • Respond to inquiries

  • Provide estimates and consultations

  • Schedule site visits

  • Communicate about projects

  • Provide customer service

  • Comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations

We do not use your SMS consent to enroll you in unrelated third-party marketing programs.

6. How We Share Information

We may disclose information to third parties that assist us in operating our business, providing services, communicating with customers, measuring advertising, or completing construction projects.

Advertising and Analytics Providers

Certain online identifiers, Site activity information, advertising interaction data, and conversion information may be disclosed to or processed by advertising and analytics providers such as Google for measurement, attribution, analytics, fraud prevention, campaign optimization, and advertising purposes.

We do not sell personal information for monetary payment.

Depending on the law applicable to you, certain uses of advertising cookies or advertising identifiers may be considered “sharing,” “targeted advertising,” or a similar regulated activity even when no money is exchanged.

7. SMS/Text Messaging Privacy

Tekota Builds may communicate by SMS or text message for conversational, customer-service, and project-related purposes, including:

  • Responding to an inquiry

  • Appointment scheduling and confirmations

  • Estimate or consultation coordination

  • Project updates

  • Scheduling

  • Site-access coordination

  • Customer-service communications

  • Vendor or subcontractor coordination

  • Delivery and material coordination

A. How You Opt In to Text Messages

SMS communication may occur when:

  • You initiate a text conversation by texting our business number and we respond to your request;

  • You provide your telephone number through a website form and consent to being contacted regarding your inquiry;

  • You provide consent during customer onboarding or project setup, verbally or in writing, to communicate by text about your project; and/or

  • A vendor or subcontractor communicates with us by text for legitimate project coordination.

If you provide your phone number to us, you may be contacted by telephone or text message to respond to your request and communicate about your project or inquiry.

Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply.

You may reply STOP to an SMS message to opt out of future SMS messages and HELP for additional information.

B. No Sale or Sharing of SMS Opt-In Data

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

Text-messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be sold, rented, or shared with third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

This restriction does not prohibit Tekota Builds from using service providers that assist us in operating our communications systems or delivering messages on our behalf, provided such information is used only as necessary to provide those services.

Advertising conversion measurement described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy does not include selling your SMS consent or allowing another company to independently market to you based on your SMS opt-in.

8. Your Advertising and Privacy Choices

You may have several options for limiting analytics or advertising tracking.

You can:

  • Adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies

  • Use private-browsing features provided by your browser

  • Adjust advertising or privacy settings on your mobile device

  • Manage personalized advertising through Google’s My Ad Center or Ads Settings

  • Use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on

  • Use any cookie or privacy controls made available on our Site

  • Contact us with a privacy-related request

Disabling advertising cookies does not necessarily mean that you will stop seeing advertisements. It may instead mean that advertisements are less personalized and that Tekota Builds has less information available to measure advertising performance.

9. Do Not Track and Browser Privacy Signals

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” or other privacy signals.

Because there is not a single universally accepted standard governing every browser privacy signal, our Site may not respond uniformly to all such signals.

Where applicable law requires Tekota Builds to recognize a particular legally valid opt-out preference signal, we will endeavor to process that signal as required.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to:

  • Respond to inquiries

  • Provide services

  • Maintain customer and project records

  • Meet contractual obligations

  • Resolve disputes

  • Maintain tax, accounting, insurance, and business records

  • Prevent fraud and abuse

  • Measure advertising performance

  • Comply with legal obligations

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

Advertising and analytics providers may maintain information according to their own retention policies.

11. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, loss, misuse, or alteration.

However, no website, electronic communication, or data-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

12. Third-Party Websites and Services

Our Site may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.

Tekota Builds is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites or services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you use.

Google’s collection and processing of information through Google Ads, Google Analytics, and related services are also governed by Google’s own applicable privacy policies and terms.

13. Children’s Privacy

Our Site and services are intended for adults seeking construction, remodeling, home-improvement, or related professional services.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through our Site.

If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without appropriate authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes to our practices, technology, advertising systems, services, or legal requirements.

When we make changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Privacy Policy.

Your continued use of the Site after an updated Privacy Policy is posted is subject to the revised policy.
