Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 7, 2026
This policy explains what information Talbot Painting Inc collects through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep it simple because our data practices are simple: we collect only what we need to respond to you and understand how the site is used.
What information we collect
We collect two kinds of information:
- Information you send us. When you submit our contact form, we receive the details you enter: your name, email address, phone number, city, and your project details. The form is delivered to our email by a third-party form service, which processes your submission on our behalf.
- Analytics data. Like most websites, we collect basic usage data through analytics: the pages you visit, your device and browser type, your approximate location (such as city or region), and the site that referred you to us. This data is aggregated and does not directly identify you.
How we use it
We use contact form submissions to respond to your inquiry, schedule estimates, and communicate with you about your painting project. We use analytics data to understand how visitors find and use the site so we can improve it. That is all. We do not use your information for anything unrelated to running our business.
Cookies and Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a service provided by Google, to measure how the site is used. Google Analytics sets cookies, which are small text files stored in your browser, to distinguish visitors and remember visits. Google processes this data on our behalf; you can read about how Google handles it at Google's privacy policy.
We do not sell your information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing. Your information is shared only with the services that help us run the site, such as our form delivery service and Google Analytics, as described above.
How long we keep data
We keep contact form submissions in our email for as long as we need them to serve you and keep normal business records. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics' standard retention settings and is kept in aggregated form after that. If you would like us to delete an inquiry you sent, just ask using the contact details below.
Your choices: opting out and managing cookies
You have simple ways to limit or refuse the data described above:
- Block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Every major browser lets you clear cookies and refuse new ones, either for all sites or for specific ones.
- Install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, which stops Google Analytics from collecting your data on any site.
- Browse in private or incognito mode, which discards cookies when you close the window.
- Skip the contact form and call us instead at (530) 515-1078.
Children's privacy
This website is for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted information through our site, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If our practices change, we will update this page and revise the "Last updated" date at the top. We encourage you to review this page from time to time.
