Privacy Policy

What we collect

When you submit a form on this site we collect the information you enter: your name, company, email address, phone number, ZIP code, and details about your location such as type, headcount, and what equipment you are interested in. We also collect standard web analytics data including pages viewed, referring source, approximate location derived from IP address, and device type.

Why we collect it

The core purpose of VendingConnect is to connect businesses that want vending service with vending operators who can provide it. When you submit a location request, we share the details you provided with vetted vending operators who service your area so that they can contact you about placing equipment. That is the service — it is not an incidental use.

Who we share it with

We share location request details with vending operators in our network who serve your area. We also use third-party service providers for website hosting, form processing, email delivery, and analytics; these providers process data on our behalf. We do not sell your personal information to data brokers or advertisers unrelated to vending services.

Communications

By submitting a form you agree that we and matched vending operators may contact you by phone, text, or email about your request. Message and data rates may apply. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP to a text, using the unsubscribe link in an email, or contacting us through the contact form.

Your choices

You may request that we delete your information, correct it, or tell you what we hold. Depending on where you live you may have additional rights under laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act. To exercise any of these, use our contact form and we will respond within the timeframe the applicable law requires. Note that once a request has been shared with an operator, that operator holds its own copy under its own privacy practices.

Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for basic site functionality and to understand how visitors find and use the site. You can block cookies in your browser settings; core form functionality will still work.

Data retention and security

We keep submissions for as long as needed to operate the service and meet legal obligations. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we hold, though no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Children

This site is intended for business use and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
