The Vac Shak
("we," "us," or "our") operates the website
www.maincentralvacs.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains
what information we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices you have
— including how our cookie banner lets you allow or reject non-essential
cookies.
By
using the Site, and where required by law by making a selection in our cookie
banner, you acknowledge the practices described here. If you do not agree,
please do not use the Site or adjust your cookie choices.
1.
Summary
We
keep tracking on this Site deliberately limited. We use cookies and similar
technologies in three categories:
- Strictly
necessary — required
for the Site to work. Always on.
- Analytics — Google Analytics.
- Embedded
video — Vimeo and
YouTube players.
Non-essential
cookies (analytics and video) do not load until you allow them through
our cookie banner. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time, and we
honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. We do not use advertising
cookies or pixels, we do not sell or share your personal information for
advertising, and we do not use session-replay or fingerprinting on this
Site.
2.
Information you provide to us
If
you contact us or submit a form, we collect what you choose to provide — such
as your name, email address, phone number, postal address, and the contents of
your message — and use it only to respond and to provide what you requested.
3.
Information collected automatically
When
you visit the Site, we and the third parties below may collect: your IP
address and approximate location, browser and device information, pages
viewed and links clicked, referring/exit pages, and date and time of your
visit. This is collected through cookies and similar technologies. Your IP
address is transmitted to Google (for Analytics) and to Vimeo or YouTube
when you allow the relevant category, as described in Section 5.
4.
Cookies and how consent works
- Strictly
necessary cookies are
always active and cannot be switched off.
- Analytics
and embedded-video cookies
are blocked until you allow them. When you first visit, our banner lets you Accept
all, Reject all, or open Preferences to choose category by
category.
- You
can reopen "Cookie settings" at any time to change or withdraw
consent.
- If
your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as
a request to opt out of non-essential cookies and do not load them.
5.
Third-party services
Google Analytics
We
use Google Analytics (Google LLC) to understand how visitors use the Site. When
enabled, it sets cookies and processes data including your IP address,
device/browser information, and on-site activity, and shares it with Google.
See Google's Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can also
opt out across all sites with Google's browser add-on:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Vimeo (embedded video)
Some
pages contain videos hosted by Vimeo, Inc. When you allow video and a player
loads, Vimeo may receive your IP address and set cookies. We load Vimeo in its
privacy-oriented ("Do Not Track") mode where available. See Vimeo's
Privacy Policy: https://vimeo.com/privacy.
YouTube (embedded video)
Some
pages contain videos hosted by YouTube (Google LLC). When you allow video and a
player loads, YouTube may receive your IP address and set cookies. We use
YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode where available; note this reduces, but does
not eliminate, data collection. See Google's Privacy Policy:
https://policies.google.com/privacy.
We
do not control how these providers use the data they collect. Please review
their policies.
6. How we
use information
We
use the information above to respond to inquiries and provide requested
products, services, or information; to operate, secure, and improve the Site;
to measure and analyze usage; and to comply with legal obligations. We do not
use your information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
7. Your
choices and rights
Everyone
can accept or reject non-essential cookies in our banner, reopen "Cookie
settings" to change choices, opt out of Google Analytics with the add-on
above, and contact us to access, correct, or delete information we hold
(Section 11).
Preference signals. We honor recognized opt-out preference signals, including Global
Privacy Control (GPC).
California residents (CCPA/CPRA)
You
have the right to know what personal information we collect and how we use and
disclose it; to access, delete, and correct it; to opt out of its
"sale" or "sharing"; and not to be discriminated against
for exercising these rights. We do not sell your personal information
and do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. The
categories we collect are identifiers (including IP address) and
internet/electronic activity, as described above. You may use an authorized
agent to submit a request.
EEA/UK residents (GDPR/UK GDPR)
Our
legal bases are your consent (for analytics and embedded-video cookies),
our legitimate interests (operating and securing the Site), and compliance
with legal obligations. You may access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object
to processing, request portability, and withdraw consent at any time, and may
complain to your local supervisory authority. Data transferred outside the
EEA/UK is protected by appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual
Clauses.
8. Data
retention
We
keep information you provide only as long as needed to respond and for
legitimate business and legal record-keeping. Analytics data is retained per
our Google Analytics configuration (14 months).
9.
Security
We
use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, including
encryption in transit (HTTPS). No method of transmission or storage is
completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
10.
Children's privacy
The
Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect
their personal information. If you believe a child has provided us information,
contact us and we will delete it.
