Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Kota Construction LLC (“Kota Construction,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects your information. It covers visitors to kotaconstructionmaine.com (the “Site”) and anyone who contacts us about a project. Please also read our Terms of Use.

1. Information This Privacy Policy Covers

Information you give us. You may fill out a form, ask for a guide, call, text, or email us. When you do, we collect what you share. This usually includes your name, email, phone number, and project address or town. It may also include details about your project, budget, and timeline.

Information we collect when you visit. Our web server and analytics tools also collect some technical details on their own. These include your IP address, browser, device type, the pages you view, the site that sent you here, and the time of your visit.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• answer your questions, prepare estimates, and set up site visits;
• send you the guides or details you asked for;
• call, email, or text you about your inquiry or project;
• manage our customer records and keep track of our work;
• learn how people use the Site so we can improve it;
• block spam, fraud, and abuse; and
• follow the law.

3. Cookies and Analytics

Like most websites, the Site uses cookies. Some cookies help the Site and its forms work. We also use Google Analytics to see how visitors find and use the Site. For example, it tracks which pages you visit and your general location, based on your IP address. Google handles this data under its own privacy policy.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. You can also turn off Google Analytics with the Google Analytics opt-out add-on. However, the Site does not currently respond to “Do Not Track” signals from browsers.

4. Who We Share Information With

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only in these cases:

• Service providers. These companies help us run our business. They include our website host, form tools, spam filter (Akismet), analytics (Google), email, and customer-management software. They may use your information only to provide services to us.
• Project partners. When your project needs it, we share details with subcontractors, suppliers, designers, and town permit offices.
• Legal and safety reasons. We share information when the law, a court order, or a subpoena requires it. We may also share it to protect the rights, property, or safety of our company, our customers, or others.
• Business changes. If someone buys or merges with Kota Construction, customer information may pass to the new owner. That owner must still follow this Privacy Policy.

5. Text Messages

If you give us your mobile number, we may text you about your inquiry or project. Message and data rates may apply. You can reply STOP at any time to stop our texts. We never sell or share your mobile number or texting consent with others for their marketing.

6. Your Choices Under This Privacy Policy

You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time. Just use the link in any marketing email, or contact us. You can also ask to see, fix, or delete the personal information we hold about you. To do so, email admin@kotaconstructionmaine.com. Still, we may need to keep some records by law or for our business. These include contracts, permits, invoices, and warranty records.

7. How Long We Keep Data and How We Protect It

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the reasons in this Privacy Policy. For customers, that includes the project itself, the warranty period, and any time the law requires. We also use reasonable safeguards to protect your information. However, no website or storage system is fully secure, so we cannot promise perfect security.

8. Links to Other Websites

The Site links to other websites. These include our Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as town and supplier websites. We are not responsible for how those sites handle privacy. So, please read their privacy policies before you share information with them.

9. Children’s Privacy

The Site is meant for adults. We do not aim it at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you think a child has sent us information, please contact us. We will then delete it.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Each change takes effect when we post it on this page. We will also update the “Last updated” date above.
