Applied Decon LLC provides biohazard cleanup, decontamination, and related services. We take privacy seriously—especially because people often contact us during difficult situations. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Please do not submit sensitive personal information you don’t want shared (for example, Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, or medical records). If we need additional details to perform services safely, we’ll ask in a way that minimizes unnecessary personal information.

Applied Decon LLC does not share mobile numbers, text messaging originator opt-in data, or consent with any third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

Mobile information may be shared only with subcontractors and service providers that support the delivery of SMS services, such as messaging platforms, telecommunications providers, or customer support vendors. This information is used solely to provide and operate the messaging service.

All other use case categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent. This information will not be shared with any third parties.


Online Payments

If you pay online, payments are processed by a third-party payment processor (for example: [Stripe / Square / PayPal / other]). We do not receive or store your full payment card number. The payment processor may collect and process your payment information according to their own privacy policy and terms.

We may retain payment-related records such as:

  • invoice number, amount, date paid, and transaction confirmation

If you provide your phone number or email, we may contact you to:

  • respond to a request you made
  • schedule or coordinate service
  • provide estimates, updates, or closeout information
  • send invoices, receipts, or payment confirmations

We do not send spam. You can request that we limit non-essential communication at any time (note: we may still need to contact you about active jobs or billing).


Cookies (No Analytics)

We do not use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to track visitors for marketing or advertising purposes.

However, our website may use essential cookies and similar technologies that help:

  • keep the site functioning properly
  • improve security
  • support embedded features (for example, a contact form)

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect site functionality.


How We Share Information

We share personal information only as needed to operate our business and provide services, including with:

  • Service providers that support our website, email, invoicing, and payments (including WPForms and our web host)
  • Payment processors to complete online payments
  • Legal/regulatory authorities if required by law, or to protect rights, safety, and property
  • Authorized parties you designate (for example, a property manager, representative, or insurer), when you ask us to or when needed to perform the requested service

We do not share your information for third-party marketing.


Sensitive Situations and Discretion

Because of the nature of our work, communications can involve sensitive circumstances. We treat that information as confidential and limit use to what is necessary for:

  • safe planning and execution of services
  • communication with the requester and authorized parties
  • documentation appropriate to the job
