Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 27, 2026

At Machine Electric, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any information you share with us. This policy outlines how we handle data on our website: https://machine-electric.com.

1. Who We Are

Our website address is: https://machine-electric.com. We provide industrial and commercial electrical services in Southwest Washington.

2. Information We Collect

Because our site is designed to be simple and secure, we only collect information in the following ways:

  • Contact Forms: When you fill out a request for a bid or a maintenance inquiry, we collect the personal information you provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, and details about your project. This information is used solely to respond to your request and provide electrical services.
  • Technical Data: Like most websites, we may collect your IP address and browser user agent string. This is used for security purposes and to help us detect and prevent spam.

3. Cookies

We use minimal cookies to improve your experience. Since we do not use logins or user accounts:

  • Analytics & Performance: We may use basic cookies to understand how visitors interact with our site (e.g., which pages are most popular) so we can improve our service pages.
  • Functional Cookies: If our site uses a contact form, a temporary cookie may be used to ensure the form submits correctly.

4. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., Google Maps for our service area). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.

5. Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. Your data is only shared with:

  • Service Providers: Trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website or conducting our business (such as our email host), so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.
  • Spam Detection: Information submitted through contact forms may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

6. How Long We Retain Your Data

If you contact us via our web form, we retain the communication and its metadata indefinitely for customer service and record-keeping purposes. We do not use the information submitted through contact forms for marketing purposes unless you explicitly ask to join a mailing list.

7. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have submitted a contact form on this site, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes (such as project invoices or safety records).
