How Blue Ridge Thermoforming collects, uses, and protects your information.
Last updated November 13, 2026
This policy draft should be reviewed by the company's attorney. The text on this page is not legal advice.
Information we collect
When you request a quote or join the newsletter, we collect the fields you submit, such as your name, company, email, phone number, and project details, plus files or drawings you attach. We also keep the email correspondence that follows. For visitors in the United States and other regions that use opt-out, we store campaign tags from the link you used (including utm parameters and advertising click ids such as gclid and LinkedIn's li_fat_id), a random visitor id, a short session id, and the pages you view, unless you opt out of analytics. In the European Union, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, we store those only after you accept analytics. We keep a record of your privacy choice either way. Google Analytics may receive an approximate location from your browser. We do not put your name, email, phone, company, project description, or file names into our analytics event log.
Why we use it
We use this information to respond to quotes, provide services, measure which campaigns and posts bring people to the site, improve the site, and protect it from abuse. Necessary storage also keeps your cookie choice and a security check on forms.
Cookies and storage
Necessary: a short session used to finish a form you submit, your privacy choice (about 6 months), a short-lived record of whether this visit is in an opt-in or opt-out region, security cookies from Cloudflare Turnstile, and a hidden honeypot field that is not a cookie. Analytics: Google Analytics 4, an optional Google Tag Manager container, our first-party event log, and a 90-day attribution record of the campaign that brought you here. Marketing, when those products are turned on for this site: a Google Ads conversion tag, a LinkedIn Insight Tag, and a Meta Pixel. In the United States and other opt-out regions, analytics and advertising tags may load on the first visit. Use Your Privacy Choices in the footer to opt out of analytics or of sale and sharing. In the European Union, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, those tags stay off until you accept them. Cookie settings is the control there. Global Privacy Control is honored as a do-not-sell-or-share choice for visitors in opt-out regions: marketing tags stay off while that signal is on, and analytics can stay on. Do Not Track is not automatically treated as an opt-out and is not legally required. Use Your Privacy Choices, Cookie settings, or the vendor opt-outs below.
How long we keep it
Quote requests, newsletter sign-ups, and related correspondence are kept as long as we need them to respond, provide services, and meet accounting or legal duties, and then deleted or archived. First-party analytics events are kept for 14 months. The consent cookie lasts 6 months. The attribution record lasts 90 days. A browsing session expires after 30 minutes of inactivity. We do not keep a raw IP address in the first-party event log.
Sharing
We do not sell personal information. Google receives analytics and, when marketing is allowed, advertising measurement data, and acts as an independent controller of its tags. LinkedIn and Meta receive data only if their tags are configured on this site, and they are independent controllers of those tags. If a marketing tag is on, that measurement can be a “share” for cross-context advertising under the California Privacy Rights Act. Your Privacy Choices (opt-out regions) or Cookie settings (opt-in regions), and the vendor links below, are how you opt out of that share.
Your choices
In the United States and other opt-out regions, open Your Privacy Choices in the footer to opt out of analytics or to say “Do not sell or share my personal information.” In the European Union, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, open Cookie settings to accept, reject, or customize. We honor Global Privacy Control as a do-not-sell-or-share signal in opt-out regions. Do Not Track is not an automatic opt-out. You can also use Google's Analytics opt-out (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout), Google ad settings (adssettings.google.com/), LinkedIn's guest ad controls (www.linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out), and Meta ad preferences (www.facebook.com/adpreferences/ad_settings).
