Privacy Policy

Last updated 15 April 2026

RusCO Excavation (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to being transparent about how we handle information. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding information submitted through our website at www.ruscoexcavation.com (“Site”).

We operate a simple, low-data website. We do not sell your information, we do not use your information for advertising, and we do not share your information with third parties except as described in this Policy. We collect only the information you voluntarily provide through our contact and estimate request forms, and we use that information only to respond to your inquiry.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide Voluntarily

The only personal information we collect is information you choose to provide when you submit a contact form or estimate request form on our Site. This may include:

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • Your phone number
  • Your physical address or project location (if provided)
  • A description of your project or service request
  • Any other information you choose to include in your message

2.2 Information We Do NOT Collect

We do not collect the following:

  • Payment information or financial data of any kind
  • Government ID numbers, Social Security Numbers, or other government identifiers
  • Sensitive personal information such as health, biometric, or demographic data
  • Account credentials or passwords
  • Precise geolocation data

2.3 Automatically Collected Information (Technical Data)

Like most websites, our web hosting provider may automatically log certain technical information when you visit the Site, such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and visit timestamps. This data is collected at the server level by our hosting provider. We do not actively use this data to identify or track individual users.

If this Site uses WordPress with any caching, security, or analytics plugins, those plugins may collect additional technical data. Please review the privacy policies of any such plugins if applicable.

2.4 Cookies

Our Site may use cookies — small files placed on your device by your browser. These cookies are used only for basic website functionality (such as remembering your session). We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party behavioral tracking cookies.

You can configure your browser to refuse cookies or delete existing cookies. Disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Site.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information you submit through our contact or estimate forms only to:

  • Respond to your inquiry or estimate request
  • Schedule site visits, consultations, or project discussions
  • Prepare and send you a project estimate or proposal
  • Communicate with you about your project during and after the engagement
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations

We do not use your information to send unsolicited marketing messages. We do not sell, rent, lease, or otherwise share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

4. How We Share Your Information

4.1 We Do Not Sell Your Information

RusCO Excavation does not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal information with any third party for commercial or marketing purposes.

4.2 Limited Sharing

We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

  • Service Providers: We may share your information with our web hosting provider, email service provider, or other vendors who process data on our behalf, solely to operate the Site and respond to inquiries. These providers are contractually prohibited from using your data for their own purposes.
  • Legal Compliance: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, regulation, court order, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, or investigate fraud.
  • Business Transfers: If RusCO Excavation is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

5. Data Retention

We retain information submitted through our contact and estimate forms for a reasonable period necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was submitted and to comply with legal obligations. For inquiries that do not result in a project, we generally retain information for no more than three (3) years. For completed projects, we may retain communications and records as required by Michigan contractor licensing regulations and standard business record-keeping practices.

You may request deletion of your information at any time by contacting us as described in Section 9. We will honor deletion requests unless we are legally required to retain the data.

6. Data Security

We implement reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the information submitted through this Site from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our Site uses HTTPS encryption for all data transmission.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. You transmit information through this Site at your own risk.

In the event of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you as required by applicable law, including the Michigan Identity Theft Protection Act (MCL 445.63 et seq.).

7. Out-of-State Visitors and Nationwide Clients

While RusCO Excavation is based in Michigan, we serve clients across the United States. If you access this Site from a state with its own privacy laws (such as California’s CCPA, Virginia’s VCDPA, or other state privacy legislation), please be aware that we handle your information as described in this Policy. Because we collect minimal data for limited purposes and do not engage in data sales or cross-context behavioral advertising, we believe our practices comply with the requirements of applicable state privacy laws. If you have specific questions about your state’s rights, please contact us.

8. Your Rights and Choices

Regardless of your location, you have the following rights with respect to your personal information:

  • Access: You may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
  • Correction: You may request that we correct inaccurate information about you.
  • Deletion: You may request that we delete your personal information, subject to our legal retention obligations.
  • Opt-Out of Communications: You may ask us not to contact you in the future.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information in Section 10. We will respond to all requests within 30 days.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will revise the Effective Date at the top of this page. If we make material changes that significantly affect your rights or how we handle your information, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you (such as by posting a notice on the Site). Your continued use of the Site after any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy.
