- Contact form submissions: name, email, phone number, and message content when you use our contact form.
- SMS consent: if you opt in to receive text messages, we record that consent along with your phone number.
Information collected automatically
When you visit our site, we may collect the following — but only after you consent via the cookie banner:
- Analytics data: pages visited, time on site, referral source, general geographic region, device type, and browser. We use Google Analytics 4 with IP anonymization enabled.
- Advertising data: Google Ads conversion tracking to measure whether ad clicks result in contact form submissions. No personal information is shared with Google Ads beyond the conversion event.
- Marketing attribution: UTM parameters, click identifiers (gclid), landing page URL, and referrer URL are captured at form submission to understand which channels drive inquiries.
Without your consent, we collect no analytics or advertising data. Only essential, functional cookies (such as your consent preference) are used.
