- Name and company name

We do not knowingly collect Social Security numbers, government ID numbers, precise device location, or biometric data. We do not collect payment card numbers on this website. Payments are handled by our third party payment processor on its own secure site.
3. How We Use Your Information
- Respond to quote, schedule, and contact requests
- Schedule and dispatch a crew, and tell you when they are on the way
- Send job status, completion, and follow up information
- Invoice you and collect payment
- Keep records required for tax, accounting, insurance, and inspection compliance
- Improve the website and our service
- Meet legal obligations
We do not use your information for automated decision making that produces a legal or similarly significant effect on you.
5. How Long We Keep Information
We keep job and customer records for as long as we have an active relationship with you and afterward for as long as needed to meet tax, accounting, warranty, and legal requirements, generally seven years.
We keep text messaging consent and opt out records for at least four years after the consent or opt out, because carrier and federal messaging rules require us to be able to prove consent. If you opt out, we keep only the minimum record needed to honor that opt out and to prove we honored it.
6. Text Messaging (SMS)
If you give us your mobile number and check the consent box on our schedule or contact form, or if you text us first, we may send you text messages about your job. This is a customer care and job notification program. It is not a marketing list.
What we send:
- Replies to questions you send us
- Quote and scheduling confirmations
- Crew arrival and job status updates
- Job completion and invoice notifications
How consent works:
- Consent is given by you, either by checking an unchecked consent box on our website form or by texting us first.
- Consent is never pre selected, never bundled into another agreement, and never required. You can submit any form, get a quote, and hire us without agreeing to texts. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of purchase.
- We record the date and time of your consent and keep it as proof.
How to stop:
- Reply STOP to any message. We stop immediately and send one confirmation.
- Reply HELP for help, or call or text 515-599-5991.
- Reply START to opt back in at any time.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All of the categories above exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
Your mobile number and consent status are shared only with the telecommunications provider that delivers the message on our behalf, and only so the message can be delivered to you. That provider may not use your number for its own marketing. Full program terms are on our SMS Terms and Conditions page.
7. Email
We send transactional email such as request confirmations, quotes, job updates, and invoices. If we ever send a promotional email, it will include an unsubscribe link. Unsubscribing from promotional email does not stop transactional email about a job you have hired us for.
9. How We Protect Information
The site is served over encrypted HTTPS, form submissions are transmitted encrypted, and access to customer records is limited to employees and contractors who need it to do their jobs. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable steps appropriate to the sensitivity of the information we hold.
10. Your Choices and Rights
Whatever state you live in, you can ask us to:
- Tell you what personal information we hold about you
- Give you a copy of it
- Correct it if it is wrong
- Delete it, except where we must keep it for tax, legal, or messaging compliance reasons
- Stop texting you, stop emailing you, or stop calling you
To make a request, call or text 515-599-5991 or email info@midwestcurbgrinding.com. We will verify who you are before acting, and we will not discriminate against you for making a request.
11. Children
Our services are sold to builders, contractors, municipalities, and homeowners. The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
12. Changes to This Policy
If we change this policy we will post the updated version here and change the effective date at the top. If a change materially affects how we handle text messaging consent, we will get fresh consent before relying on it.
