If you breach any of the terms of the Agreement, your right to use the Site or right to use the Service will terminate immediately. The Agreement does not apply to the practices of companies and third parties that BUILDCHECK does not own or control or to individuals whom BUILDCHECK does not employ or manage. BUILDCHECK reserves the right to use and control the information collected on the Site. By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the Agreement and consent to the practices described in the Agreement.

From time to time, we will also send user surveys, requests for user feedback regarding user experience and Site operations or marketing offers from us or from us on behalf of our marketing partners. The completion of these surveys or requests for feedback or acceptance of any offer is strictly voluntary. If you do not wish to receive these offers, surveys or user feedback emails, please opt-out in any offer email you receive from us. When you access the Service, we may collect technical and navigational information, such as computer browser type, Internet protocol address (“IP address”), pages visited, general statistical and tracking information, your computer operating system and browser information, and average time spent on our Sites. This information may be used, for example, to alert you to software compatibility issues, or it may be analyzed to improve our Web design and functionality. We train our employees about privacy and limit access to this information. To maintain security of your online session and prevent unauthorized users from accessing your account we use firewall barriers, encryption techniques and authentication procedures. We will not sell, rent, license, or disclose any of your nonpublic personally identifiable information to any non-affiliated third parties, except as described below. If you decide to close your account, BUILDCHECK will continue to adhere to the privacy policies and practices as described in this notice.
We collect information about our users in four ways: (a) directly from the user, (b) from our web server logs, (c) through cookies, pixels, and server logs, and (d) from third parties with whom we may have agreements to perform certain functions or services on our behalf.
Any personal information or content that you voluntarily disclose for posting on the Site (“User Content”) becomes available to the public. You can view and modify this information within the self-maintenance area of the Site. If you remove User Content, copies may remain viewable in cached and archived pages or if other users have copied or stored your User Content. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor the User Content you post on the Site. We have the right to remove any information or material posted on the Site for any reason or no reason, including without limitation, if in our sole opinion, such information or material violates, or may violate, any applicable law, the Agreement, or to protect or defend our rights or property or those of any third party. We also reserve the right to remove information upon the request of any third party.
The following information may be collected in connection with your use of the Site and Service:
Third-party analytics and other service providers, such as Google Analytics, may set and access their own tracking technologies on your device and they may otherwise collect or have access to information about you and track you over time and across third party websites. These service providers use tracking technologies to help us analyze how visitors use our Site and Service. We are not responsible for those third-party technologies or activities arising out of them. However, some third parties may offer you certain choices regarding their practices. For example, to learn about opting out of Google Analytics, please visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of or compliance with any third parties’ opt-out options. If you choose to opt-out of the use of Google Analytics, Google will no longer collect and analyze information via cookies associated with your browser for these services. When you opt out, Google will place opt-out cookies on your browser. If you delete your cookies, change browsers, or change devices, you will need to repeat this opt-out process. Also, please note that this opt-out process will work only if your browser is set to accept all cookies. We may still use Google Analytics services to create promotions and apps within social networks after you opt out. These services do not rely on collecting and analyzing information via cookies. To learn more about your choices for these services, review the options your social network provides. You can obtain information about which third parties have currently enabled cookies and how to opt-out of some of those cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s website at http://optout.networkadvertising.org; or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s website at http://optout.aboutads.info.

If you correspond with us by e-mail, we may retain the content of your e-mail messages, your e-mail address and our responses in our e-mail records. We will retain e-mails that are sent from BUILDCHECK to you. Emails are subject to archival, monitoring or review by and/or disclosure to, someone other than the recipient. We retain e-mail correspondence to build records of our relationship and to measure and improve our service. We may, over time, delete these records if permitted by law.

Cookies are small text files, which often include a unique but anonymous code, sent by a Site server to your Web browser and stored on your computer. They recognize you as a repeat visitor, allowing you to log in faster and enhance your navigation through the site and the general user experience. Cookies do not identify you by name as an individual or by account number. Cookies also track traffic patterns on our Site, helping us understand how you are using our Site. This information allows us to improve the security, content, navigation and functionality of our Site. Cookies note that your browser was used to visit certain sites, pages, or advertisements on a certain date, but are not used to collect or disseminate any personal information. Additionally, we use cookies on our Sites and the sites on which we advertise to track advertising performance and to collect aggregate data on Web page viewing. We may contract with third-party service providers (e.g. Google Analytics) to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business. You can manually disable cookies. You should review the online documentation of your browser or consult with the provider of your browser for instructions on how to disable cookies. However, disabling cookies may cause some parts of the Site to not function properly. A pixel is typically a transparent graphic image that is placed on a site or in an email which allows the website to record the simple actions of the user opening the page that contains the beacon. “Server logs” can be either a single log file or several log files automatically created and maintained by a server of activity performed by the server, which can include information about any transaction you conduct with the server.
As you enter our Site, we capture and retain the IP address of the device you are using, such as a personal computer or a handheld device. The IP address does not identify you or your personal information and is used for security purposes only. We may use this information to monitor and prevent fraud, diagnose problems, and (anonymously) estimate demographic information.
BUILDCHECK does not sell, rent, or license, or otherwise disclose non-public personally identifiable information about current or former clients to anyone, except in cooperation with the government and regulatory agencies with a lawful summons, court order, subpoena, fraud investigation, audit or regulatory examination, investigations of a violation of legal rights of BUILDCHECK or any other person, or as permitted or required by law, to non-affiliated third parties that help us provide services to you. Examples of these services from such third parties, companies, or individuals, may include:
As such, these third parties, companies, or individuals may have access to nonpublic personally identifiable information concerning you that they provide to us. All non-affiliated third parties that accept or receive this information from us are obligated contractually or by law or regulation to keep this information confidential and to use the information only to provide the services we ask them to perform. These non-affiliated third parties will be provided with only that information necessary to perform their functions on our behalf, and we will not allow them to use your personally identifiable information for any other purpose. BUILDCHECK shall be entitled to transfer to a third-party information it maintains, including any personally identifiable information, in connection with a transaction or proceeding involving a transfer of some or all of the assets relating to the Site or a business in connection with which such information is maintained. We may store nonpublic personally identifiable information in locations outside of our direct control such as on servers, or databases maintained by hosting providers. You may decline to submit nonpublic personally identifiable information through BUILDCHECK, in which case we may not be able to provide certain services to you. You may update or correct your account information and email preferences at any time in your online profile. BUILDCHECK may buy or sell assets or business offerings. Customer, email, and visitor information is generally one of the transferred business assets in these types of transactions. We may also transfer such information in the course of corporate divestitures, mergers, or dissolution. In any such transfer of information, your user information would remain subject to the Agreement.
BUILDCHECK uses commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. We employ a variety of security measures, including encryption and authentication tools. Your personal information is stored behind firewalls and is only accessible by a limited number of people who are required to keep the information confidential. If you have a unique password (the “Password”) for access to non-public areas of the Site, you are solely responsible for all activities that occur in connection with your Password. Accordingly, you should take steps to protect the confidentiality of your Password. Notify BUILDCHECK immediately if you become aware of any disclosure, loss, theft or unauthorized use of your Password. To protect your privacy and security, maintain the secrecy of your unique Password and account information, and for controlling access to your email communications from BUILDCHECK, at all times. Despite these measures, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will always be unable to defeat our security measures.
In the event that we learn that personal information is compromised as a result of a breach of security, BUILDCHECK will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify those persons whose personal information has been compromised, in accordance with the notification procedures set forth in the Agreement, or as otherwise required by applicable law.
We urge you to review your information regularly to ensure that it is correct and complete. If you believe that any of your information is incorrect, or if you have any questions regarding this Policy, please contact us at privacy@buildcheck.ai.
