If you voluntarily provide a telephone number, you may receive communications relating to your inquiry, appointment, requested service, or business relationship with us.

Depending on the consent provided at the point of collection, communications may include telephone calls, text messages, appointment reminders, follow-up messages, and other relevant communications.

Message and data rates may apply to text messages depending on your mobile carrier and plan. Message frequency may vary.

Where applicable, you may opt out of marketing text messages by replying STOP. You may reply HELP for assistance.

Mobile Information: We do not sell or rent mobile phone numbers or SMS opt-in information to third parties for their own marketing purposes. SMS consent and opt-in data will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for unrelated marketing or promotional purposes.

8. Sale of Personal Information

The Contract Forge does not sell personal information in exchange for money in the ordinary course of our business.

Certain privacy laws may define terms such as "sale," "sharing," or "targeted advertising" more broadly than an ordinary monetary sale. Our use of advertising or analytics technologies may be treated differently under certain state privacy laws.

Where applicable, individuals may have rights relating to these activities as described below.

9. Cookies

Cookies are small files or identifiers that websites and related technologies may place on or associate with your device. We may use cookies for website functionality, analytics, security, advertising measurement, and marketing attribution.

You can generally configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality or performance of portions of our websites.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to provide services, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, meet legal requirements, and protect our legitimate business interests.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information, the reason it was collected, our business needs, contractual requirements, and applicable law.

11. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no internet transmission, electronic storage system, or security measure can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted to or stored by us.

12. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you reside and applicable law, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These may include the right to:

  • Request access to certain personal information we maintain

  • Obtain information regarding certain disclosures of data
  • Opt out of certain marketing communications
  • Opt out of certain targeted advertising, sale, or sharing activities where applicable
  • Appeal certain decisions regarding a privacy request where applicable law provides that right

These rights are subject to applicable exceptions and limitations. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising privacy rights provided by applicable law.

13. Marketing Communications

You may unsubscribe from promotional email communications by using the unsubscribe mechanism contained in the applicable email or by contacting us.

Opting out of promotional communications does not necessarily prevent us from sending non-promotional communications, such as messages regarding an existing business relationship, transaction, appointment, request, or service.

14. Third-Party Websites & Services

Our websites may contain links to websites, platforms, or services operated by third parties. We do not control the privacy practices of independent third parties.

When you access a third-party website or service, its own privacy policy and terms may govern the collection and use of your information. We encourage you to review those policies.

15. Children's Privacy

Our services are intended for businesses and adults and are not directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children under 13 through our business services.

If we become aware that personal information from a child under 13 was collected in circumstances where parental consent was required, we may take reasonable steps to delete the information.

16. U.S. State Privacy Laws

Residents of certain U.S. states may have additional rights under applicable state privacy laws. The availability and scope of those rights depend on factors including residency, the type of information involved, and whether the applicable law applies to The Contract Forge.

Where required by applicable law, we will process qualifying privacy requests in accordance with the applicable legal requirements.

17. Business Transfers

If The Contract Forge is involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, financing, bankruptcy, sale of assets, or similar transaction, information may be transferred as part of that transaction subject to applicable law.

18. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes to our business, services, technology, legal requirements, or privacy practices.

When we make changes, we may update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of our websites and services after an updated policy becomes effective is subject to the updated policy and applicable law.
