Privacy policy

1. Who we are

bluecoastwater.com is the website of Blue Coast Water, LLC ("we", "us"), a software and AI firm in Yucca Valley, California.

This policy covers this website, its forms and its visit counter. The systems we build and run for a client are covered by that client's agreement with us.

To reach us, write to hello@bluecoastwater.com.

2. What we collect

When you write to us: your name, email, phone number if you give one, and your message.

When you ask for work on the For businesses pages: the same contact details, your business name and links, and your answers about the job (what, how many, by when, where and for whom).

When an AI assistant writes to us for you, through our MCP server at bluecoastwater.com/mcp or the tool on our contact page: the name, email, message and company it passes on, the service it is about, and the assistant's name. To limit repeats we keep a scrambled form of the network address and of the email, never the plain ones.

When you apply to the street team or answer a job post: your name, email, phone number, where you are based, a link if you give one, and what you write about yourself.

How you reached us, for that visit: a campaign tag in the link, the website that sent you, the first page you opened, and a street team member's code if their link brought you. It is kept in your browser tab until you close it and sent with a form.

As you browse: the pages you open, the parts of a page you reach, and the buttons and outside links you click. These are counted with no cookie. A random id lives in your browser tab and ends when you close it, so nothing recognizes you on a later visit. Your network address is never stored with them, only a scrambled form of it that changes every day.

Like every web server, ours see your network address and browser type and record them in request logs. We also use the address to limit how often one network can send a form.

3. How we use it

To answer you: to reply, quote, plan the work and follow up.

To keep the site and its forms safe: to spot automated requests and limit repeated ones.

To see, in aggregate, how the site is used, so we can make it better.

To meet our legal duties, and to answer lawful requests from authorities.

4. What we share, and with whom

We do not sell your personal information.

The companies that help us run the site, only for that work and only on our instructions: Google (Firebase and Google Cloud), which host the site, store what you send and run our server code and logs; and AgentMail, which delivers your message to our inbox. Visit counts go to our own counter, run by us on Google Cloud.

If you book a call, the booking calendar is Google Calendar's: Google receives what you type there under its own privacy policy.

5. Cookies

This site sets no advertising or tracking cookies, and needs none to work. The visit counter uses your browser's tab storage instead, which ends when you close the tab.

6. Where your information is kept

We store and process your information in the United States, with the companies named in section 4.

7. How long we keep it

What you send us: for as long as we need it to reply, do the work and follow up, and as our business and legal needs require. Ask us to delete yours at any time.

Request logs: 30 days. Visit counts: up to about 13 months, then deleted; daily totals that identify no one may be kept longer.

8. Your choices and rights

You can ask us what information we hold about you, ask for a copy, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. If we must keep something, for example business or tax records, we will tell you.

To ask, write to hello@bluecoastwater.com. It is free. We may need to confirm it is you first. We answer within 30 days.

9. Changes

We may change this policy. The version date at the top tells you when it last changed.
