Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

Our position, in one line

Trades Lead Engine, a division of FOG Digital Marketing LLC, does not sell personal information and does not share it for targeted advertising or profiling. We have never done either.

You do not need to submit anything to be opted out. There is nothing to opt out of. The rest of this page explains what that means and how to exercise your other privacy rights anyway.

What “sell” and “share” actually mean

Under the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act, a “sale” means sharing personal data with a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA, “sharing” also covers disclosing personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising, even when no money changes hands.

Both definitions are broader than most people expect, which is why we set out below exactly what leaves our systems.

What we actually do with your data

• Form submissions. Scorecard and contact requests are emailed to us and stay in our business email account. They are not uploaded to an advertising platform, added to an ad audience, or sold to a lead broker.
• Analytics. We use Google Analytics 4 through Google Tag Manager to see which pages and sources produce enquiries. We do not use it to build advertising audiences.
• Spam protection. Google reCAPTCHA checks whether form submissions come from people or bots.

This website runs no advertising pixels, no retargeting tags and no data broker integrations.

One thing worth knowing

We sell marketing services. We do not sell leads. An enquiry you send us is not passed to another contractor, resold, or shared with anyone who competes with you. Leads generated for a client belong to that client alone, and are never shared with another company in the same trade and market.

Your rights

Whether or not a business sells data, Texas and California residents have rights over the personal information a business holds. You may ask us to:

• Confirm whether we process your personal data, and give you a copy
• Correct anything inaccurate
• Delete what we hold about you
• Provide your data in a portable, machine-readable format
• Opt out of sale, targeted advertising or profiling — already the case here

We will not deny you service, charge you a different price, or give you a lower quality of service because you exercised any of these rights.

How to make a request

Use whichever is easiest:

• Email leads@tradesleadengine.com with “Privacy request” in the subject line
• Call (726) 224-4920
• Write to FOG Digital Marketing LLC, 2822 N Loop 1604 W, Suite 109, San Antonio, TX 78248

Tell us what you want us to do and give us an email address or phone number we can reply to. To protect you, we may need to verify your identity before we act, usually by confirming details you have already given us. We will not ask you to create an account to make a request.

We respond within 45 days. If a request is complex we may extend once by a further 45 days, and we will tell you before we do.

Authorised agents

You may use an authorised agent to make a request on your behalf. We will ask for written permission signed by you, and we may still contact you directly to confirm the request is genuine.

If we say no

You have the right to appeal. Reply to our decision, or email leads@tradesleadengine.com with “Appeal” in the subject line, and we will review it and respond within 60 days with our decision and the reasoning behind it. If we deny the appeal, you may submit a complaint to the Texas Attorney General at texasattorneygeneral.gov.

Global Privacy Control

If your browser or an extension sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a valid opt-out request. Because we do not sell or share personal information, the practical effect is the same either way.
