Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 1, 2026

GCE Construction (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit our website, contact us through our forms and services, or make a purchase through our online store.

By using this website — including our online store — you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

Information you provide to us. We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide, including but not limited to:

Name
Email address
Phone number
Company name
Project details or messages submitted through contact or project inquiry forms
Billing and shipping address, when you place an order in our online store
Order details — items purchased, order amount, and order history

Payment information. When you make a purchase, your payment card information is entered directly into our payment processor’s secure checkout and is not stored on our servers. See “Payment Processing” below.

Information collected automatically. We may also automatically collect limited technical information such as browser type, device information, IP address, and general usage data — including data related to shopping cart activity — to help operate and improve our website and online store.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

Respond to inquiries and project requests
Process, fulfill, and ship orders placed through our online store
Communicate with you regarding an inquiry, project, or order (including order confirmations and shipping updates)
Improve website and online store functionality and user experience
Maintain internal records related to project planning, communication, and order/financial history
Prevent fraud and protect the security of our website and store

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

A note on guest checkout: Our online store uses guest checkout. We do not require you to create an account, and we do not automatically add you to any marketing or promotional list when you make a purchase or submit a form. If that changes in the future, we will update this policy and give you a clear way to opt in or out.

Payment Processing

Payments made through our online store are processed by Square, Inc. Square collects and processes your payment card information directly; we do not receive, transmit, or store your full card number on our servers. Square’s handling of your payment information is governed by Square’s own privacy policy, available at square.com/us/en/legal/general/privacy. We retain only the order and transaction records (such as amount, date, and items purchased) necessary for order fulfillment, accounting, and tax purposes.

Order Fulfillment and Shipping

To deliver physical products you order, we share the shipping information you provide (name, address, and phone number, where applicable) with our shipping carrier, USPS, solely for the purpose of completing your delivery.

Sharing of Information

We do not share your personal information with third parties except when necessary to:

Process payments (Square) and fulfill orders (shipping/freight carriers)
Respond to your inquiry or fulfill a service or project request
Operate website analytics and advertising tools that help us understand site traffic and measure our marketing, as described below under “Cookies and Analytics”
Comply with legal obligations
Protect the rights, safety, or property of GCE Construction

Any service providers we work with are required to keep your information confidential and to use it only for the purposes we’ve engaged them for.

Cookies and Analytics

Our website and online store use cookies and similar technologies for a few purposes:

Essential/functional cookies — needed for core features like your shopping cart, checkout session, and site security (for example, cookies used by our content delivery network for performance and bot protection).
Analytics cookies — we use tools such as Google Analytics to understand website traffic and usage patterns.
Advertising cookies — we run Google Ads and Meta (Facebook/Instagram) advertising, which may use cookies or pixels on our site to measure ad performance and show relevant ads to past visitors (remarketing).

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of personalized advertising through tools like the Google Ads Settings page and Meta’s ad preferences. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not knowingly share it for cross-context behavioral advertising beyond the standard operation of the advertising tools named above.

Data Security

We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse, including using SSL/HTTPS encryption on our website and relying on a PCI-compliant payment processor (Square) for payment card handling. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain contact and inquiry information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to and follow up on your request. We retain order and transaction records for up to 5 years for accounting, warranty, and tax purposes under applicable law.

Your Choices

You may request to review, update, or delete your personal information by contacting us directly. We will make reasonable efforts to comply with your request unless we are required to retain certain information for legal, accounting, or business purposes (for example, completed order records).

If you are a California resident, you may contact us using the information below with questions about how your information is handled. We do not sell or share personal information in exchange for money.

Children’s Privacy

Our website and online store are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn we have inadvertently collected such information, we will delete it.

Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, including our payment processor’s checkout pages. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, including to reflect new features like our online store. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
