3. Data Security
We use commercially reasonable administrative, physical, and technical measures designed to protect your personal data from accidental loss or destruction and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. However, no website, mobile application, system, electronic storage, or online service is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data transmitted to, through, using, or in connection with the Services. In particular, email, texts, and chats sent to or from the Services may not be secure, and you should carefully decide what information you send to us via such communications channels. Any transmission of personal data is at your own risk. The safety and security of your information also depends on you. You are responsible for taking steps to protect your personal data against unauthorized use, disclosure, and access.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the information collected for the following purposes:
-
To respond to inquiries, quote requests, and project consultations
-
To route and manage leads through our sales process (via HubSpot CRM)
-
To analyze website traffic and improve Site performance (via Google Analytics)
-
To send follow-up communications relevant to your inquiry, if you have provided contact information
-
To send marketing and product communications to subscribers who have explicitly opted in (when email subscription launches)
-
To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms
We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
5. Legal Basis for Processing
Where applicable law requires a legal basis for processing your information, we rely on the following:
-
Legitimate interests: responding to business inquiries, managing our sales pipeline, and improving our website
-
Consent: where you have expressly opted into email communications — including our forthcoming subscription list, which will require explicit opt-in before any marketing emails are sent
-
Legal obligation: where processing is required by applicable law
6. Third-Party Services and Data Processors
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our Site. Google Analytics collects usage data including page views, session duration, traffic sources, and device information. This data is processed by Google LLC and subject to Google's Privacy Policy (policies.google.com). You may opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
HubSpot
We use HubSpot, Inc. as our customer relationship management (CRM) platform. When you submit a contact form on our Site, your information is stored and managed within HubSpot. HubSpot may also place cookies on your device to track browsing behavior for lead intelligence purposes. When our email subscription feature launches, HubSpot will also serve as our email marketing platform for opted-in subscribers. HubSpot is a data processor acting on our behalf and is contractually required to protect your data. For more information, see HubSpot's Privacy Policy at legal.hubspot.com/privacy-policy.
We do not sell, rent, transfer, share or trade your personal information to any third party for their own marketing purposes.
7. Email Communications
Inquiry Follow-Up
If you submit a contact form, we may follow up by email as part of our normal sales and customer service process. This is not a marketing list — it is a direct response to your inquiry.
Email Subscription List (Launching Soon)
We will soon offer an optional email subscription for product updates, industry insights, and iQ Labs’ news. The following rules will govern this list:
-
Opt-in required: You must actively subscribe. Submitting a contact form does not add you to the list.
-
Confirmation: We will use a confirmed opt-in (double opt-in) process where you verify your subscription via a confirmation email before being added.
-
Unsubscribe: Every marketing email will include a one-click unsubscribe link. Requests will be honored within 10 business days.
-
No list sharing: Subscriber data will not be sold, rented, traded, transferred or shared with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Frequency: We will communicate the expected email frequency at the point of sign-up.
