This Privacy Policy explains how Commercial Water Lab ("we," "us," or "our"), operated at commercialwaterlab.com, collects, uses, and protects information when you visit this site. We are committed to handling your information responsibly.
Information we collect
Information collected automatically
When you visit commercialwaterlab.com, our web hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically collect certain technical information, including:
- Your IP address (typically stored in anonymized or truncated form)
- Browser type and version
- Operating system
- Pages visited and time spent on those pages
- Referring URL (the site you came from)
- Date and time of your visit
This information is used in aggregate to understand how visitors use the site and to improve our content. We do not use this data to identify individual visitors.
Information you provide voluntarily
We do not currently operate a contact form, newsletter signup, or account registration system. If you contact us by email at lawrence@commercialwaterlab.com, we will receive your email address and the contents of your message. This information is used only to respond to your inquiry.
Analytics
This site may use Google Analytics or similar tools to collect anonymized traffic data. If Google Analytics is in use, it operates under Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
We do not sell or share analytics data with third parties for advertising purposes.
Cookies
This site may use cookies — small text files stored on your device — for basic site functionality and analytics. Types of cookies that may be used include:
- Analytics cookies — Used to collect anonymized data about how visitors use the site (pages visited, session duration). These cookies do not contain personally identifiable information.
- Affiliate tracking cookies — When you click an affiliate link on this site (for example, a link to Amazon or US Water Systems), the destination site may set a tracking cookie to attribute any resulting purchase to this site. These cookies are set by the third-party retailer, not by us. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details on our affiliate relationships.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect site functionality.
Third-party links
This site contains links to third-party websites, including retailers, manufacturers, and reference sources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party site before providing personal information.
Affiliate links to retailers such as Amazon and US Water Systems are governed by those companies' own privacy policies.
Data retention
We retain email correspondence for as long as reasonably necessary to resolve inquiries. Anonymized analytics data is retained in accordance with the policies of our analytics provider. We do not maintain databases of visitor personal information.
Children's privacy
This site is intended for adults making commercial and industrial water treatment purchasing decisions. We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through this site, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of data we hold about you. Because we collect minimal personal data, these rights will rarely be applicable. If you have a specific request, contact us at lawrence@commercialwaterlab.com and we will respond promptly.
California residents may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). We do not sell personal information.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
