At Grand Design, safeguarding your privacy is a given.

1. No information that identifies you as an individual is collected while you are here visiting the website. The only specific identifier is the IP address that your requests originate from. The programming behind this website does not create or use custom cookies to offer you rotating banner ads or pop-up windows and other annoying advertisements.
   
   Since you do not need to log in to access the features of this site, the only cookies you'll generate are the typical tracking cookies that count what pages you request, how long you stay, where you enter and exit the site, and what URL you clicked over from. "Web bugs" and "clear GIFS" are not used on this site.
   
   
2. No personally identifiable information is harvested and stored during any visit. This website does not use a database to store such data from site visitors or current customers, nor are any third-party trend analyzers being used.
   
   
3. The only information that is gathered and retained is such information that is necessary to conduct business between Grand Design and the contracting individual or business. This information is supplied by the client to Grand Design on a purely elective basis, either by phone or email/ US Mail, and will be used only to conduct business and to maintain business records in a manner appropriate for any registered business.
   
   
4. The information specific to any company contracting services from Grand Design is considered confidential; a non-disclosure policy can and will be included in any contracts drawn up between Grand Design and a client. Furthermore, such information as is needed to create and maintain a client website is exclusively for that purpose, and is not used or made available for any other reason.
   
   
5. Any information retained by Grand Design is purely for conducting business, and is not collected in order to share or sell to any third-party entities. This policy applies to Grand Design and the website you are visiting; however, when visiting externally linked sites, be aware that those sites may handle your visits and personally identifiable information quite differently. The Grand Design Privacy Policy does not intend for a visitor to assume that externally linked sites conform to similar or identical privacy policies.
   
   
6. Under certain and very specific circumstances, such as a court-order or subpoena from a criminal or civil investigation, client information gathered by Grand Design while performing contracted work on a site-for-hire will be made available to the proper authorities.
