This Privacy Policy describes how StoneQuarries.net (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website.
Information we collect
- Information you provide. When you submit a contact form, request a quote, or claim a listing, we collect the name, email, phone number, company, and any message content you choose to share.
- Account & billing. If you subscribe to a paid plan, our payment processor (Stripe) collects and stores your payment information. We never store full card numbers. We receive your Stripe customer ID, subscription status, and billing email.
- Usage data. We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate traffic patterns (pages viewed, referring sites, device type). This may include pseudonymous identifiers.
- Anti-abuse. Google reCAPTCHA protects our forms from automated abuse and may collect hardware and software information, including device and application data, and send it to Google for analysis.
How we use information
- To operate and improve the directory and listings experience.
- To respond to contact, quote, and claim submissions.
- To process subscriptions and manage billing through Stripe.
- To detect and prevent fraud, spam, and abuse.
