Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 19, 2026

Who We Are

Badger Building Inc. ("we," "us," or "our") is a commercial general contractor located at 126 1st Avenue West Suite A, Alabaster, Alabama 35007. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information collected through this website, badger-buildinginc.com (the "Site").

Information We Collect

We do not require an account to use this Site, and the Site does not collect personal information automatically beyond the standard technical data described below. You may choose to provide information to us in the following ways:

• Contact form. When you use the "Drop Us a Line" form on our Contact page, the form composes a message in your own email application containing the details you enter (such as your name, phone number, email address, and project information). The message is sent from your email account to ours; the Site itself does not store or transmit your form entries to any server.
• Employment application form. The application form on our Employment Opportunities page works the same way — it opens a pre-filled email in your email application containing the name, phone, email, and experience details you enter, which you then send to us directly.
• Direct communications. If you call, fax, or email us, we receive the information you choose to share, such as your contact details and project or employment information.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information you provide to respond to inquiries, prepare bids and estimates, evaluate employment applications, and conduct our ordinary business operations. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share information with service providers who support our business (for example, our email provider), or when required by law.

Cookies & Browser Storage

We use your browser's local storage for one functional purpose: remembering that you clicked "Got It" on our cookie notice, so it does not reappear on every visit. This is stored under the key bb-cookie-notice-dismissed. That's first-party browser storage, not a cookie, and it is never sent to any server.

Once you accept the cookie notice, Google Analytics sets its own first-party cookies (_ga and _ga_*) to distinguish visitors and sessions — see "Analytics" below for details. The Site does not set advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, and we do not use any cookie for ad personalization.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use this Site — which pages are viewed, how visitors move through the Site, and general traffic trends. This is aggregate traffic measurement, not a way of identifying individual visitors.

Google Analytics does not run until you click "Got It" on our cookie notice. Before you consent, no analytics cookies are set and no data is sent to Google. If your browser sends a "Do Not Track" signal, we honor it and do not load Google Analytics even if you have consented.

Once active, Google Analytics collects information such as pages viewed, your approximate geographic region (city or region level, based on a truncated IP address), your device and browser type, the site that referred you, and how you move through the Site. IP anonymization is enabled, and we have turned off Google Signals and ad personalization, so this data is not used for ad targeting or to build cross-site advertising profiles.

You can opt out at any time by:

• Declining or clearing your cookie consent, so Google Analytics does not load;
• Installing Google's official Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on; or
• Clearing your browser's site data for this Site.

Third-Party Services

Some content on this Site is loaded from third parties, which may receive standard technical information (such as your IP address and browser type) when it loads:

• Google Fonts — the typefaces used on this Site are served from Google's servers.
• Google Maps — our Contact page includes an embedded map provided by Google, which may set its own cookies when displayed.
• Google Analytics — after you accept our cookie notice, this Site uses Google Analytics to measure traffic, as described above. Google's Privacy Policy applies to Google Fonts, Google Maps, and Google Analytics.
• Social media links — links to our Facebook, Instagram, and X (Twitter) pages take you to those platforms, where their own privacy policies apply. Simply following a link does not send them information from this Site.

Our website hosting provider may keep standard server logs (such as IP addresses, pages requested, and timestamps) for security and operational purposes.

Data Retention

Emails and application materials you send us are retained as long as reasonably necessary for the business purpose they were provided for, and to meet our legal and record-keeping obligations.

Your Choices & Rights

You may contact us at any time to ask what information we hold about you, or to request that it be corrected or deleted, subject to any records we are required to keep. Depending on where you live, you may have additional privacy rights under state law.

Children's Privacy

This Site is intended for business audiences and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
