Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 1, 2026

1. Who we are

ChangeLocks.net is an independent commercial security information resource. References to "we," "us," and "our" in this policy refer to the operators of ChangeLocks.net.

2. What we collect

We collect information you provide directly when you use our contact form: your name, email address, and message. We also collect standard server log data when you visit the site, including IP address, browser type, referring URL, and pages visited.

We do not collect payment information. We do not require account creation.

3. How we use data

Form submissions are used solely to respond to your inquiry. Server log data is used for site security, analytics (aggregate traffic patterns), and debugging. We do not sell, rent, or share personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Service providers

We use third-party services in the ordinary operation of the site. These providers may have access to data as part of their service delivery:

  • Hosting and infrastructure providers (server logs, uptime monitoring)
  • Analytics tools (aggregate, anonymized traffic patterns only)
  • Content delivery network (CDN) for asset delivery

We do not use advertising networks, ad-tracking pixels, or retargeting on this site.

5. Cookies

This site uses session cookies for basic site functionality only. We do not set persistent tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party social media cookies.

6. Data retention

Contact form submissions are retained for up to 12 months and then deleted. Server log data is retained for up to 90 days.

7. Your rights

You have the right to request access to personal data we hold about you, to request deletion, and to opt out of any communication. To exercise these rights, use the contact form or reach out via the email listed on the Contact page. California residents have additional rights under the CCPA, including the right to know and the right to delete.

8. Security

We use industry-standard security measures including HTTPS encryption and access controls. No method of data transmission is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
