Privacy Policy


This site belongs to Brickworkz LLC. Our website address is: https://brickworkz.com.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Contact forms

The info that we retain is:

Your name (’cause no one likes “hey, you!”)
your email address (so we can get back to you)

…and in the case of your voluntary newsletter signup, our secure 3rd party vendor may retain your IP address. (we don’t keep that or care – it’s our mail service that cares for legal CAN-SPAM Act reasons.)

There are a few ways that we receive your information: either you sign up for a newsletter, leave a comment or question using our web form, or email/call us directly. In all three cases, please rest assured that your information stays secure and private to Brickworkz LLC and will never be sold.

If you opt to join the newsletter, your information gets stored in their secured database owned by our mailing service – and please, trust us that we ONLY joined up with them because they hate spam even more than we do. They hold privacy as their utmost priority, and we appreciate that. Neither of us will EVER sell or give your information to anyone!

Outbound Communications and your Privacy

In terms of outgoing contact from Brickworkz, you may be on our newsletter list, so you’ll see a newsletter from us – never more than one per month – updating you on company events and recent projects.

The unsubscribe link is at the bottom of every email, and we encourage you to use it if you don’t want to receive the email any longer.

If you feel any communication has been in error or that your privacy has been violated, please contact us immediately so we can fix the situation. We can be located by email ([email protected])

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, our Content Management service will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

If you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

nobody.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
