Privacy Policy
This page explains what information Lake County Web Design receives through this website and what we do with it.
Effective date: October 28, 2026.
Information you send us
When you fill in the contact form, we receive what you typed. That usually includes your name, your business name, how to reach you, your current website address, and the message itself.
Please do not send account passwords, payment card numbers, confidential legal details, medical information, or other sensitive data through the form.
Information created when you visit
The systems that host this website, keep it secure, and run its forms handle basic technical information. Depending on which tools are active, that can include your IP address, your browser and device, which pages you asked for, the date and time, and a record of a form you submitted.
Our website platform, Google Analytics, and the Meta pixel may use cookies or similar browser storage to run forms, measure visits, and show relevant ads. You can manage cookies in your browser settings. Some parts of the site may behave differently if you block browser storage.
Analytics and advertising
We use Google Analytics to learn which pages people visit, what device and browser they use, roughly where they are, and how they found the site. Google sets cookies to do this. You can read How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
We use the Meta pixel (Facebook and Instagram) to measure whether our ads bring people here and to show our ads to people who visited. Meta receives your visit, the pages you view, and the actions you take on the site, and links that to your Meta account if you have one. You can read Meta's privacy policy.
Our hosting provider also counts visits so we can see overall traffic, such as which pages people view and which sites send them here. It does not use cookies to do this.
We may add similar measurement or advertising tools later. When we do, they work the same way and this section covers them.
We do not sell your information.
How we use it
- To read and answer your inquiry
- To discuss, prepare, and deliver the website services you ask for
- To run, secure, and troubleshoot this website
- To keep business records tied to inquiries and client work
Who else handles it
Information may pass through the providers we use to host this site, run its forms, handle business communication, and deliver the services you request. We may also disclose information when the law requires it, or when it is needed to protect this website, our business, or other people.
We use outside providers to host this website, deliver it quickly and securely, run its forms, and count visits. Google Analytics measures site traffic, and the Meta pixel measures and delivers our ads. You can read How Google uses information from sites that use its services and Meta's privacy policy for how those two companies handle data.
How long we keep it
We keep inquiry and client information for as long as we reasonably need it for the uses above, for our business records, and to meet legal obligations.
Your choices
You can ask what personal information you sent us, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Some information may have to stay in our records for business or legal reasons. We will tell you if that is the case.
To opt out of Google Analytics, use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. To opt out of Meta ads, use Meta's ad preferences. You can also opt out of interest-based ads across many companies at once through the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page.
We honor Global Privacy Control signals from your browser as an opt-out of targeted advertising.
