Privacy Policy
Last Updated: July 6, 2026
At Steel Building, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and share your personal information when you use our website, interactive 3D estimator, and other services.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly to us, such as when you submit a custom configuration for a steel structure, request a quote, or contact our support team. This information includes:
- Contact Information: Your first name, last name, email address, phone number, and physical ZIP code (used to calculate regional freight rates, local snow loads, and wind exposure requirements).
- Custom Configuration Specifications: Custom building dimensions, roof style selections, color preferences, structural opening details (doors, garage doors, windows), and estimated pricing models.
2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and other technical monitoring tools to analyze site performance, customize your 3D design experience, and optimize our advertising reach.
- Essential Cookies: Critical for the operation of our interactive 3D building viewer and quote cart, allowing your custom specifications to persist as you navigate the builder.
- Analytics Cookies (GA4): We use Google Analytics 4 to track user navigation patterns, page interaction depths, and build milestones. This data helps us improve estimator performance.
- Advertising & Social Pixels: Web beacons placed by companies like Meta, Google, and Microsoft help us track estimator performance, trace conversion actions, and deliver relevant retargeting ads.
You can manage cookie settings directly in your web browser. However, disabling technical cookies may impact the interactivity of our 3D custom estimator.
3. Online Advertising and Retargeting
We partner with third-party advertising networks to show ads on external websites based on your browsing activity and configuration choices on our site. These partners use tracking pixels to gather non-personally identifiable metrics about your visit and configuration choices, enabling us to serve highly relevant banner and search ads when you visit other digital networks.
4. Affiliate Disclosures and Data Sharing
Steel Building is a design and routing platform. We are not a direct metal fabrication factory. To fulfill your customized building requests, we share lead data with our vetted network of heavy industrial manufacturing plants, licensed engineers, and certified local installers. Some of these partnerships operate under affiliate marketing or referral agreements. When you request a quote, your configuration metrics are shared with regional affiliate partners to compile a binding, code-compliant, and localized offer.
5. Data Retention and Security
We implement robust administrative, physical, and digital safeguards to defend your contact details against unauthorized access. Your build measurements and contact details are stored for as long as necessary to complete your custom consulting, after which they are securely archived or deleted in accordance with our regional records protocols.
