Lowder Steel, Inc. (“Lowder Steel,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through lowdersteel.com (the “Site”), how we use it, and the choices you have. Lowder Steel is a structural steel fabrication and erection company serving commercial and industrial construction clients. This Site is intended for business use and is not designed to collect sensitive personal information.

Information You Give Us

When you submit our contact form, we collect the information you enter, which includes your first name, last name, company name, email address, and the content of your message. If you contact us by phone or email, we keep the information you choose to share with us so that we can respond and maintain a record of the conversation.

Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, our Site and its service providers automatically collect limited technical information when you visit. This may include your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring website, the pages you view, and the dates and times of your visits. We use this information in aggregate to understand how the Site is used and to keep it secure and available.

Cookies and Analytics

We use Google Analytics to measure Site traffic and understand which pages are useful to visitors. Google Analytics sets cookies and collects usage data on our behalf. You can learn more about how Google handles this data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites, and you can opt out using Google’s browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

We also use Cloudflare to deliver and protect the Site. Cloudflare sets a security cookie that helps identify and block malicious traffic. Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies through their settings. Blocking cookies will not prevent you from using the Site, though some features may behave differently.

How We Use Your Information

• To respond to estimate requests, project inquiries, and general questions
• To prepare and follow up on bids, quotes, and proposals
• To communicate with you about current or prospective projects
• To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site
• To comply with our legal, contractual, and recordkeeping obligations

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not rent or trade it. We share information only in these circumstances:

• Service providers. We use vendors who perform services for us, such as website hosting, form delivery, email, and analytics. They may access information only as needed to perform those services for us.
• Project partners. When it is necessary to respond to your inquiry or carry out a project, we may share your contact and project details with general contractors, architects, engineers, suppliers, or subcontractors involved in that project.
• Legal reasons. We may disclose information if we believe it is required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or where necessary to protect our rights, our people, or the safety of others.
• Business transfers. If Lowder Steel is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

How Long We Keep Information

We keep inquiry and project information for as long as needed to serve the purpose it was collected for, to maintain accurate business and project records, and to meet legal, tax, insurance, and contractual requirements. Retention periods in the construction industry are often long because of warranty and liability obligations.

Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect the information we hold, including encrypted connections to this Site. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please do not send confidential drawings, pricing, or proprietary project documents through the Site contact form. Contact us directly and we will arrange a secure method.

Third Party Websites

The Site may link to websites we do not control, such as project partners or industry organizations. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those websites. We encourage you to read their privacy policies.

Children’s Privacy

The Site is directed to businesses and construction professionals. It is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Your Choices and Rights

You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, and you may ask us to stop sending you communications. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws. To make a request, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before acting, and we may retain information we are required to keep.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Material changes will be reflected on this page, so please review it periodically.
