Privacy Policy

Effective: January 2024

Lifestyle Lumber (“we,” “us,” or “our”) has served central Minnesota from our yards in St. Martin and Bowlus since 1989. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have. This is a simple, static website — we keep data collection to the minimum we need to answer your questions and serve you well.

Information We Collect

We collect the information you choose to give us when you fill out a form on this site — primarily our quote / contact form and, if you apply, our careers form. Depending on the form, that can include:

• Your name (first and last)
• Your email address
• Your phone number
• The yard closest to you and the materials you're interested in
• Project details — dimensions, quantities, timeline, and anything else you describe
• Whether you need delivery and whether you're a contractor or building professional
• Any other details you include in your message or application

We do not ask for sensitive information, and we don't run accounts, logins, or online ordering. You only share what you type into a form and send to us.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information you provide to do the things you asked us to do:

• Respond to your quote requests and general inquiries
• Prepare estimates and material takeoffs for your project
• Coordinate and schedule delivery or pickup
• Reply to job applicants and follow up about openings
• Follow up by phone or email about a request you started

We don't use your information for unrelated marketing, and we don't add you to mailing lists without your say-so.

Cookies & Analytics

We use Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how people use our site — which pages are visited, roughly where visitors come from, and how the site performs. Google Analytics sets analytics cookies and collects usage data in aggregate to help us improve the site. We use this to make the website more useful, not to identify you personally.

You can control or block cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of Google Analytics across sites by installing Google's Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Third-Party Services

This website relies on a few third-party services to function. Each one may process limited data according to its own privacy policy:

• FormSubmit — delivers the contents of our web forms to our email inbox so we can respond to you.
• Google Maps — we embed maps so you can find and get directions to our yards.
• Google Analytics — helps us understand site usage, as described above.

We don't control these providers' practices, so we encourage you to review their policies if you'd like to know more about how they handle data.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your information, and we don't trade or rent it to anyone. We only share what's needed to operate — for example, the details required to arrange a delivery — or when we're legally required to do so. That's it.

Data Retention

We keep the information you send only as long as we reasonably need it to serve you — to follow up on a quote, complete a project, or respond to an application. When it's no longer needed, we dispose of it.

Your Choices

You're in control of the information you share with us. You may:

• Ask us what information we have about you
• Ask us to update or correct your information
• Ask us to delete the information you've sent us
• Opt out of analytics using your browser settings or Google's opt-out tool

Just contact us and we'll take care of it.

Children's Privacy

This site is intended for a general business audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we'll remove it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as our website or services change. When we do, we'll update the effective date at the top of this page. We encourage you to check back occasionally so you're aware of how we handle your information.
