Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how Temperature Calibration Specialists collects, uses, shares, and safeguards information submitted through the temperature-calibration.com website. Please read it alongside the Terms of Service.
Effective Date: January 1, 2026
1. Information We Collect
We collect information that you voluntarily provide when you submit a calibration quote request or otherwise contact us, including:
- Contact information — full name, company or organization, email address, phone number, and facility ZIP code;
- Request details — service type, instrument quantity, desired turnaround, and any additional information you provide about the instruments to be calibrated;
- Consent records — a record of your consent to be contacted by us and by independent calibration providers, including the date and the page URL on which the consent was given.
We also collect limited information automatically when you visit the site, including device type, browser, approximate geographic region (derived from IP address), pages viewed, and referring URL. This information is used in aggregated form to improve the site and diagnose technical issues.
2. How We Use Your Information
Information submitted through the quote request form is used to:
- Route your request to one or more independent accredited calibration providers capable of performing the requested service in your geographic area;
- Enable those providers to contact you by phone, email, or text message to deliver a quote, confirm service details, and schedule calibration;
- Communicate with you about your request, including sending a confirmation and any requested follow-up materials;
- Maintain records of the request and your consent for regulatory and operational purposes;
- Improve the site, service coordination process, and quality of provider matches over time.
3. Who We Share Information With
We share the information you submit with the following categories of recipients:
- Independent calibration providers — the third-party accredited laboratories that review and respond to your quote request. These providers operate under their own privacy policies once your information is received, and they are contractually required to use the information only for the purpose of responding to your request;
- Service vendors that support site hosting, form processing, email delivery, SMS delivery, and analytics, each of which processes information only on our behalf under appropriate contractual safeguards;
- Legal and regulatory recipients when required by subpoena, court order, or other applicable law, or where necessary to investigate suspected fraud or violations of the Terms of Service.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own independent marketing purposes.
4. Data Retention
Quote request submissions and associated consent records are retained for as long as necessary to (a) respond to the request and any follow-up communications, (b) meet our legal, tax, and accounting obligations, and (c) resolve disputes and enforce agreements. Typical retention is three (3) to seven (7) years from the date of submission, after which records are deleted or de-identified. Aggregated analytics data that does not identify any individual may be retained indefinitely.
5. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information we collect, including encrypted transport (HTTPS), access controls, and vendor security review. No method of transmission or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Your Rights & Choices
You may, at any time:
- Access or correct the information you have submitted by contacting us at the address below;
- Withdraw consent to be contacted by us or by providers for the request in question — note that this may prevent us from delivering a quote or scheduling service;
- Request deletion of personal information, subject to retention requirements described above;
- Opt out of marketing communications using the unsubscribe link in any email or by replying STOP to a text message.
7. California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, California residents have the right to (a) know what personal information is collected, used, and shared, (b) request deletion of personal information, (c) request correction of inaccurate personal information, (d) opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (we do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under California law), and (e) non-discrimination for exercising these rights. To exercise a right, contact us at the email address below and specify the California right you are invoking. We may verify your identity before fulfilling the request.
8. Other U.S. State Privacy Laws
Residents of Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana, and other U.S. states with comprehensive privacy laws have rights similar to those described above, including the right to access, correct, delete, and obtain a portable copy of their personal information, and to opt out of targeted advertising, sale, or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects. Because we do not engage in targeted advertising, sales of personal information, or qualifying profiling activities, the opt-out rights may not be applicable in practice. To exercise any applicable right, contact us using the information below.
9. Children's Privacy
The site is intended for business customers and is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child under 13 has submitted information to us, please contact us at the email address below.
10. Cookies & Analytics
The site may use first-party and third-party cookies and similar technologies to recognize your browser, analyze site usage in aggregate, and improve performance. You can control cookies through your browser settings. If you disable cookies, some features of the site may not function as intended.
11. International Users
The site is operated from the United States. If you access the site from outside the United States, you understand that your information will be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those in your country of residence.
12. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the Effective Date above and, where appropriate, by providing additional notice on the site. Continued use of the site following an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
