This Privacy Policy explains how MBG&A (Pool Service & Backyard Remodeling) ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with your use of our website at mbgpoolsandspa.com (the "Site"). We are a pool service and backyard remodeling contractor based in Pompano Beach, Florida. This policy does not apply to information you provide to us offline, such as over the phone, by email, or in person, which is governed by the terms you agree to at that time.
1. Information We Collect
Our Site is currently informational only and does not include contact forms, quote request forms, or online payment processing. We do not directly and knowingly collect personal information (such as your name, email address, or phone number) through the Site itself.
However, like most websites, we and our service providers automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, including:
- IP address and approximate location
- Browser type, device type, and operating system
- Pages viewed, time spent on pages, and referring/exit pages
- Date and time of visit
This information is collected automatically through cookies and similar tracking technologies, described in Section 2 below.
2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use Google Ads and related Google advertising and measurement tools on the Site. These tools may place cookies or similar technologies on your browser to:
- Measure the performance of our advertising campaigns
- Understand how visitors interact with the Site after clicking an ad
- Show you relevant ads on other websites based on your visit to our Site (remarketing)
Google may collect and use data collected through these tools in accordance with its own privacy policy, available at https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can learn more about how Google uses data from sites that use its services, and adjust your ad settings, at https://adssettings.google.com.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block cookies, delete existing cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is placed. Disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Site, though the Site will generally remain viewable.
3. How We Use Information
To the extent we receive information through the tracking technologies described above, we use it to:
- Understand and improve Site traffic and visitor behavior
- Measure and optimize our Google Ads advertising campaigns
- Maintain the security and proper functioning of the Site
If you contact us directly by phone, text, or email (outside the Site), we use the information you provide to respond to your inquiry, prepare estimates, schedule service, and otherwise communicate with you about our pool service and backyard remodeling services.
4. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information collected through tracking technologies with:
- Google, in connection with our use of Google Ads and related advertising/measurement tools
- Service providers who help us operate the Site (such as our web host), under obligations to protect that information
- Law enforcement or other parties when required by law, legal process, or to protect our rights and the safety of others
We may also share information as part of a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
5. Data Retention
We retain technical and analytics data collected through the Site only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by our analytics and advertising providers' own retention practices.
6. Your Choices
- Browser cookie settings: adjust or block cookies through your browser
- Google Ads settings: manage ad personalization at https://adssettings.google.com
- Browser extensions: tools such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on are available if you prefer not to be tracked for analytics purposes
7. Children's Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
8. Florida Residents
We currently do not sell personal information and do not knowingly engage in activity that would trigger obligations under Florida's Digital Bill of Rights or similar state privacy laws. If our data practices change (for example, if we add forms that collect personal information), we will update this policy accordingly.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, including as our Site adds new features such as contact or quote forms. The "Effective Date" at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be posted on this page.
