Information Collected With Form Submissions

When you submit a form, we also record your IP address, your browser’s user-agent string, the page the form was submitted from, and the date and time. We use this information to prevent spam and fraud and to keep a record of the submission.

Automatically Collected Information

Like most websites, our hosting provider’s servers automatically log technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and the date and time of your visit. These logs are used to operate, secure, and troubleshoot the website.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies:

• Strictly necessary cookies keep the website working and secure. These include a cookie that remembers your cookie choices (cc_cookie), security cookies set by our hosting and security providers, and login cookies used only by website administrators.
• Analytics cookies (_ga and _ga_*) are set by Google Analytics only if you accept analytics cookies.

You can accept or decline analytics cookies when you first visit, and change your choice at any time using Cookie Settings. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

We use personal information to:

• Respond to your inquiries and communicate with you
• Review job applications, contact applicants, and make hiring decisions
• Meet our legal obligations, including employment record-keeping requirements
• Operate, maintain, secure, and improve our website
• Detect and prevent spam, fraud, and misuse
• Understand how visitors use our website, if you have accepted analytics cookies

We do not use the information collected through this website to send marketing emails.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We disclose personal information only in the following circumstances:

• Our personnel: inquiries go to the staff responsible for responding, and job applications go to the staff involved in hiring.
• Service providers: companies that host our website, deliver our email, protect our forms from spam, and provide analytics and maps, as described below. They may use the information only to provide their services to us.
• Legal requirements: when required by law, legal process, or a government request, or to protect our rights, property, or safety or that of others.
• Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our business.

Website Hosting (GoDaddy)

Our website is hosted by GoDaddy, which stores the website and form submissions and provides content delivery and security services. GoDaddy Privacy Policy.

Email Delivery (Microsoft 365)

Form submissions are sent to our staff by email through Microsoft 365. Microsoft Privacy Statement.

Spam Protection (Cloudflare Turnstile)

Our contact and job application forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to confirm that submissions come from a person rather than a bot. Turnstile processes information such as your IP address and browser characteristics to perform this check. Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics

We use Google Tag Manager to load Google Analytics 4. Google Analytics cookies are set only if you accept analytics cookies. If you decline, Google may still receive limited information that does not use cookies, such as the page you visited and basic browser information, which Google uses only for aggregate measurement. Google Privacy Policy.

Google Maps

Our Contact and Projects pages display interactive Google Maps. When these maps load, your browser connects to Google, which receives your IP address and browser information. Google Privacy Policy.

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy:

• Inquiries: as long as needed to respond and to keep reasonable records of our communications with you.
• Job applications: at least four years after we receive them, as required by California employment record-keeping rules, and longer if needed for a legal claim. If you are hired, your application becomes part of your employment records.
• Technical information recorded with a form: kept together with the submission it belongs to.
• Server logs and analytics data: kept according to the retention settings of our hosting provider and Google Analytics.

When information is no longer needed, we delete it or make it no longer identifiable.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information. Our website uses encrypted (HTTPS) connections, uploaded application documents are stored in a protected location that cannot be accessed directly from the web, and access to submissions is limited to authorized staff. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

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

• Know and access the personal information we have collected about you, including the categories, sources, purposes, and the categories of third parties we disclose it to
• Delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to legal exceptions (for example, records we must keep under employment law)
• Correct inaccurate personal information
• Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share personal information, and we treat a Global Privacy Control signal from your browser as a valid opt-out request.
• Limit the use of sensitive personal information. We use sensitive information only for purposes permitted by law, such as confirming work authorization.
• Not be discriminated or retaliated against for exercising your rights, including as a job applicant

To make a request, contact us by email at info@basinent.com or by phone at +1 (530) 527-5048. We will need to verify your identity before fulfilling access, deletion, or correction requests, and we will respond within the time required by law (generally 45 days for California residents). You may use an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf; we may ask for proof of the agent’s authority and verify your identity directly.

If you are located outside the United States, you may have similar rights under your local law, including the right to object to or restrict processing and to complain to your local data protection authority.

We keep applications for at least four years, as described under Data Retention. Your rights are described under Your Privacy Rights.

Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Job applicants must meet the minimum legal age for the position they apply for. If you believe a child has given us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
