Gulf Coast SWPPP Management LLC ("we," "us," or "our") operates gulfcoastswppp.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through the Site, by email, and by phone, how we use it, and the choices you have.
1. Information you give us
Contact form. Our "Request a Quote" form asks for your name and phone number, and, if you choose, your company, email address, and details about your site or what you need. The contact form on this site sends your message to us through a secure form. We use it only to respond to your request.
Email, phone, and text. When you email, call, or text us, we receive the information you share, along with your email address or phone number. This may include project details, site addresses, photos, documents, and contact details for people on your project.
Please do not send sensitive personal information, such as Social Security numbers or bank account numbers, through the contact form or by email.
2. Information collected automatically
The Site has no client accounts, does not take payments, and does not use advertising or cross-site tracking tools. Staff tools use separate sign in. Clients can ask us for copies of the project records we hold for them.
- Hosting and delivery. The Site is hosted by Vercel and delivered through Cloudflare. Like most websites, these providers process technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, the pages you request, the referring page, and the time of your visit. They use it to deliver the Site, keep it secure, and prevent abuse, and they may keep server logs under their own policies.
- Analytics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand, in aggregate, how the Site is used and how it performs (for example, pages viewed, referring sites, country, browser type, and page load time). Cloudflare states that Web Analytics does not use cookies to track visitors. We do not use Google Analytics, the Meta (Facebook) Pixel, or similar advertising trackers.
- Cookies. The Site and its providers use a small number of cookies needed to run and protect the Site. These currently include a Cloudflare security cookie (
cf_clearance), which shows your browser passed a bot and security check and can last up to about one year, and a Vercel cookie (__vdpl), which keeps your visit on the current version of the Site and is deleted when you close your browser. We do not use cookies for advertising. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but parts of the Site may not work correctly if you do. - Website-builder badge. The Site was built with Grok's app builder. While the Site displays a "Created with Grok" badge, each page loads a script from grok.com to show the badge and check whether it should appear. When that script loads, grok.com receives standard technical information such as your IP address, browser information, and the page address, and Cloudflare (which serves grok.com) may set a short-lived bot-management cookie (
__cf_bm, about 30 minutes) on the grok.com domain. xAI's own privacy policy governs that information. If the badge is not shown, this script is not loaded. - Email address protection. Cloudflare may hide our email address in the page code to protect it from spam bots. This does not collect information about you.
Because we do not track visitors across other websites, we do not respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals differently.
3. How we use information
We use the information described above to:
- respond to your inquiry, and prepare quotes and proposals;
- provide and bill for services if you become a client;
- keep records required by law or by stormwater permits for client projects;
- operate, secure, and improve the Site; and
- comply with legal obligations and protect our rights.
We do not use your information for automated decision-making. We do not send marketing emails unless you ask us to or you are a client, and you can opt out at any time.
4. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
We share information only:
- with service providers that help us run our business, such as our website host and content delivery network (Vercel and Cloudflare), our email and phone providers, and our accounting and invoicing software, for the purpose of providing their services to us;
- with subcontractors or partners working on your project, only as needed for work you ask us to do;
- when required by law, subpoena, or a government or regulatory request (for example, a Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality request about a client project), or to protect our rights, safety, or property; and
- with a buyer or successor if our business is sold or reorganized, subject to this policy.
5. How long we keep information
- Inquiries that do not become a project (emails, calls, and form emails): kept for up to 24 months after our last contact, then deleted.
- Client project records: kept as long as our client agreement and the law require. Stormwater permit records must be kept for at least three years from the date they were generated, and we may keep records longer while a claim, audit, or agency inquiry is pending.
- Accounting and tax records: kept as long as tax and accounting rules require.
- Technical logs and analytics: kept by Vercel and Cloudflare under their own retention policies.
6. Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect information, including secure (HTTPS) connections to the Site. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and email is not encrypted end to end unless both sides use encryption. If a breach of certain personal information occurs, we will provide notice as required by law, including Miss. Code Ann. § 75-24-29.
7. Your choices
You may ask us to tell you what personal information we hold about you, to correct it, or to delete it, subject to records we must keep by law or contract. You may also ask us to stop contacting you. To make a request, email info@gulfcoastswppp.com or call (228) 918-5202. We will respond within a reasonable time.
8. Children
The Site is intended for businesses in the construction industry. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
9. Where this policy applies
We are a Mississippi company serving construction clients in the United States, mainly on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The Site is intended for visitors in the United States, and information is processed in the United States.
10. Links to other sites
The Site may link to other websites, such as the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated policy on this page and change the effective date above.
