Privacy Policy

We collect information in a few different ways.

Information you provide directly

When you contact us, request a quote, or book an appointment, we may collect:

• Name
• Email address
• Phone number
• Postal address (for in-home visits or shipping parts)
• Details about your project or issue (e.g., device details, photos, measurements, sketches)
• Appointment date and time preferences
• Any other information you choose to share in your messages

If you work with us on a project, we may also collect:

• 3D files, drawings, or reference photos you send
• Notes about your project or service history

Information collected automatically

When you visit our website, our hosting and analytics tools may automatically collect:

• IP address
• Browser type and version
• Device type
• Pages viewed and actions taken on the site
• Date and time of your visit

This information is generally used in an aggregated way and does not identify you personally by default.

Cookies and similar technologies

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to:

• keep the site functioning correctly
• remember basic preferences
• understand how visitors use the site

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. If you disable cookies, some parts of the site may not work as expected.

We use the information we collect to:

• Respond to your questions and messages
• Provide quotes, estimates, and project updates
• Schedule, manage, and confirm appointments
• Design 3D parts, prepare prints, and deliver finished work
• Diagnose and repair tech issues, or provide support and advice
• Maintain internal records such as invoices and service history
• Ask for feedback about our services, including optional surveys or review requests
• With your permission, use your review or testimonial (usually first name and a general description only) on our website or other materials
• Improve our services and website
• Comply with legal and tax obligations

We do not sell your personal information.

If you choose to provide a review, testimonial, or survey response, we may:

• Use your comments to improve our services, and
• With your permission, display a portion of your review on our website or in other materials.

When we publish reviews, we typically use only your first name, initials, and/or a general descriptor (for example, "Local Resident"), and we do not publish your full contact details.

You can contact us at hi@hugginsindustries.com at any time if you would like your review updated, anonymized, or removed.

We only share your information with third parties when it's necessary to run the business, when you ask us to, or when required by law.

Examples of who may process your information:

• Website and hosting provider — to display the site, run forms, and handle appointment booking.
• Email provider (Google Workspace / Gmail) — to send and receive emails.
• Payment or invoicing services (if used) — to process payments and invoices; we do not store full card details ourselves.
• IT, backup, or analytics tools — to keep data secure and understand how the site is used.
• Government or legal authorities — if required to comply with applicable laws or legal requests.

These service providers only have access to the information they need to perform their functions and are expected to protect it appropriately.

We keep your information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including:

• to provide services and support
• to maintain accurate business and tax records
• to resolve disputes and enforce agreements

Project files, service notes, and communication history may be kept for a number of years so we can reference past work if you return, unless you ask us to delete them (subject to legal obligations).

Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights over your personal data. In general, you can:

• Ask what information we have about you
• Request corrections if any information is inaccurate or incomplete
• Ask us to delete certain information, where legally allowed
• Ask us to stop using your information for non-essential purposes (for example, optional marketing emails, if we ever send them)

To exercise any of these rights, email hi@hugginsindustries.com and we'll do our best to help, subject to any legal or record-keeping requirements.

You can also:

• Choose whether to provide certain information (though that may affect our ability to provide some services)
• Adjust your browser settings to manage cookies and tracking

We take reasonable steps to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. This includes:

• Using reputable hosting and email providers
• Limiting access to data to the small number of people who need it (currently just the owner)
• Using secure connections (HTTPS) on our website where supported

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to keep your information as safe as reasonably possible for a small business of our size.

Our services and website are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, tools, or legal requirements. When we do, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

If the changes are significant, we may also provide additional notice (for example, a brief notice on the website).
