Last updated: September 26, 2026

1. Who we are

This Privacy Policy explains how Alabama Cost Estimating (“we,” “us” or “our”) collects, uses, shares and protects personal information when you visit alabamacostestimating.com (the “Site”), request a quote or use our construction estimating services. Our office is located at 225 Holmes Ave NE, Huntsville, Alabama 35801.

2. Information we collect

Information you provide

• Contact details such as your name, company, email address, phone number and project location.
• Project information including drawings, specifications, bid documents, photos, scope descriptions and bid dates.
• Billing information needed to invoice and receive payment.
• Any other information you choose to include in forms, emails or calls.

Information collected automatically

• Device and usage data such as IP address, browser type, pages visited, referring pages and time on site.
• Cookies and similar technologies used for site functionality, security and analytics.

3. How we use your information

• To respond to inquiries and prepare quotes.
• To prepare, deliver and revise estimates, takeoffs and related services.
• To communicate about your project, invoices and support.
• To operate, secure and improve the Site.
• To send service updates or marketing messages where permitted (you can opt out at any time).
• To comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements.

4. Confidentiality of project documents

Plans, specifications, pricing and bid information you share are treated as confidential. We use them only to prepare your estimate and related services, do not publish them, and do not share them with competitors, suppliers or other clients. We will sign a non-disclosure agreement on request.

5. How we share information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share it only:

• With service providers who help us operate our business (for example website hosting, email, file storage, payment processing and analytics), under obligations to protect it.
• When required by law, subpoena or other legal process, or to protect our rights, safety or property.
• In connection with a merger, sale or transfer of our business, subject to this Policy.
• With your consent or at your direction.

6. Cookies and analytics

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies to keep it working, remember preferences and understand how visitors use it. We may use third-party analytics tools such as Google Analytics, which collect usage information according to their own privacy policies. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling some cookies may affect site functionality.

7. Data retention

We keep personal information and project files only as long as needed to provide our services, maintain business records, resolve disputes and meet legal, tax and accounting requirements. When no longer needed, information is deleted or anonymized.

8. Data security

We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards — including access controls and secure file transfer — to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your choices and rights

You may request access to, correction of or deletion of your personal information, and you may opt out of marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link or contacting us. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable state privacy laws. To make a request, email Ask@alabamacostestimating.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

10. Third-party links

The Site may link to third-party websites or services, including maps and plan-sharing platforms. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, and we encourage you to review their policies.

11. Children’s privacy

Our Site and services are intended for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us so we can delete it.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Please review it periodically.
