Last updated: September 29, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Elite Crete ("we", "us" or "our") collects, uses and protects personal information when you visit elitecrete509.com (the "Site") or contact us. By using the Site you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information we collect

Information you give us:

Contact details, such as your name, email address and message, when you fill in a form or email us.
Your name, email, website and comment when you leave a comment.

Information collected automatically:

Technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device, pages visited and the date and time of your visit. Our web host records this in server logs to keep the Site secure.
How you use the Site (pages viewed, time on page, links clicked), measured by analytics tools.
Cookies and similar technologies (see "Cookies" below).

2. How we use your information

To run, maintain and secure the Site.
To answer your questions and messages.
To understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it.
To prevent spam, fraud and abuse, and to meet our legal obligations.

3. Legal bases (visitors in the EEA and UK)

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we rely on these legal bases under the GDPR and UK GDPR:

Consent — for optional cookies, analytics, advertising and marketing emails. You can withdraw consent at any time.
Legitimate interests — to keep the Site secure, answer messages and improve our services, balanced against your rights.
Legal obligation — for example, keeping tax records.

4. Cookies

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use necessary cookies to make the Site work. With your permission we also use analytics and advertising cookies. You can change your choice at any time with the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of every page. Full details are in our Cookie Policy.

5. Who we share it with

We share personal information only with service providers who help us run the Site, when the law requires it, or to protect our rights. Our providers may only use it to provide their service to us.

The services we use include:

We do not sell your personal information for money.

6. International transfers

Some of our service providers are located outside your country, including in the United States. When we transfer personal information from the EEA or UK, we rely on safeguards such as adequacy decisions (including the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework) or Standard Contractual Clauses.

7. How long we keep it

We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the reasons above. Messages are usually kept for up to two years. Your cookie choice is remembered for up to 12 months.

8. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures, such as encrypted connections (HTTPS), to protect your information. No website is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

Know what personal information we hold about you and get a copy of it.
Correct information that is wrong.
Delete your information.
Object to or restrict some uses, and get your data in a portable format.
Withdraw consent at any time (this does not affect earlier use).
Opt out of targeted advertising, and of any "sale" or "sharing" of personal information.
Not be treated differently for using your rights.

To use your rights, fill in our Privacy Requests form or email hostcost.net@gmail.com. We will answer within 30 days (45 days where U.S. state law allows). We may need to confirm your identity first. You may use an authorized agent, and if we refuse your request you can appeal by replying to our answer.

EEA and UK visitors can also complain to their local data protection authority. U.S. residents of states such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Texas, Oregon and others have the rights listed above under their state privacy laws. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signals as a request to opt out of targeted advertising.

10. Children

This Site is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA and UK), and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has given us information, please contact us and we will delete it.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top shows when it last changed. Big changes will be highlighted on the Site.
