Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 16, 2026
1. Introduction
Hardman Electric ("we," "us," or "our") operates hardmanelectric.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit or use the Site, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
2. Information We Collect
When you submit our contact form, we collect the information you provide directly: your name, phone number, email address, the service you're interested in, and your message.
We also automatically collect some technical information when you visit the Site, such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited, through standard web server logs and security measures (for example, to prevent spam submissions).
3. How We Use Your Information
- To respond to your inquiry or quote request
- To schedule and coordinate electrical services you request
- To maintain the security and proper functioning of the Site (for example, detecting and blocking automated spam submissions)
- To comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising or marketing profiling.
4. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Site uses a minimal, first-party session cookie required for the contact form to work securely (it helps prevent cross-site request forgery and abuse). This cookie does not track you across other websites. We do not currently use analytics or advertising cookies; if that changes in the future, this policy will be updated accordingly.
5. Third-Party Services
Some parts of the Site load content from third-party providers, each governed by its own privacy policy:
- Google Fonts — used to display the Site's typography.
- Google Maps — embedded on our Contact page to show our service area.
Loading these resources may cause your browser to send limited technical information (such as your IP address) directly to Google.
6. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share it with service providers who help us operate the Site and deliver our services — for example, our email/hosting provider, solely for the purpose of sending you a response. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Hardman Electric, our customers, or others.
7. Data Retention
We retain contact form submissions for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry, provide the requested services, and comply with our legal and accounting obligations.
8. Your Rights and Choices
You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information you've submitted to us by contacting us using the information below. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy law.
9. Children's Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10. Security
We use reasonable technical safeguards — including HTTPS encryption, CSRF protection, and spam-prevention measures — to protect the information submitted through the Site. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information appropriately.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision.
