This policy explains what information McNeil Safety Consulting collects through this website, why we collect it, and what you can do about it. We are a single-principal environmental health and safety consultancy based in San Gabriel, California. We do not sell personal information.
Who we are
McNeil Safety Consulting, 9163 Arcadia Ave, San Gabriel, CA 91775. Telephone (626) 546-9384. Email mike@mcneilsafetyconsulting.com. This website is mcneilsafetyconsulting.com.
Information you give us
If you use a contact form on this site, we receive whatever you enter into it — typically your name, email address, telephone number, company, and the message you write. That information reaches us by email and we keep it so we can respond to you and, if you become a client, so we have a record of the enquiry that started the engagement.
Please do not send confidential case material, medical information, or documents relating to an active citation or claim through the website contact form. Call or email first and we will arrange a more appropriate way to exchange them.
If you leave a comment on an article, the comment, the name and email you supply, and your IP address are stored so the comment can be displayed and moderated.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, this one records ordinary technical information when you visit: the pages you view, the approximate location your request came from, the type of device and browser you use, and the site or search that referred you.
We use Google Analytics to understand which pages are useful, and Google Ads to measure whether our advertising reaches people who need this kind of help. These services set cookies and similar identifiers in your browser. They tell us how many people submitted a contact form; they do not tell us who you are by name.
Our web host also keeps standard server logs for security and reliability.
How we use the information
- To answer your enquiry and to provide consulting services you ask us for
- To keep records of client engagements, which for professional work may need to be retained for several years
- To understand which pages and search terms bring people to the site, so we can write more of what is useful
- To measure whether advertising is working
- To keep the website secure and functioning
We do not use your information to build advertising profiles about you beyond what Google’s own services do, and we do not send marketing email to people who simply visited the site.
Who we share it with
We share information only where it is necessary to run the business: with our web host and email provider, with Google for the analytics and advertising measurement described above, and with professionals working on your matter where you have asked us to involve them. We may also disclose information if we are legally required to.
We do not sell or rent personal information.
Your choices
- Ask us what we hold. Email mike@mcneilsafetyconsulting.com and we will tell you what we have about you and delete it if you ask, unless we are required to keep it as part of a professional record
- Control cookies through your browser settings, which can block or delete them
- Opt out of Google Analytics using the browser add-on Google publishes for that purpose, and adjust advertising personalisation in your Google account settings
California residents have rights under state privacy law regarding personal information held about them. If you would like to exercise any of them, write to us at the email address above and tell us what you need.
Security and retention
The site is served over an encrypted connection. Enquiries and client records are kept only as long as we have a reason to keep them — to respond to you, to maintain the professional record of an engagement, or to meet a legal obligation. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle information, we will update this page and change the date at the top.
