Effective Date of this Privacy Policy:
December 16, 2022
Stevens Construction Corp. (“Stevens Construction,” “we,” “us,” “our”) appreciates your interest in our website, stevensconstruction.com (the “Site”). Your privacy is important to us. Generally, our Site is designed to provide access to online information about Stevens Construction and our products and services. In connection with providing this information and service, there are times when we may ask for or collect information from you, either in the form of anonymous data or personally identifiable information. As part of our commitment to honoring your privacy, this Privacy Policy explains the approach we take in protecting and using the information that we gather from you on our Site. By using our Site, you consent to this Privacy Policy.
Our site includes an additional platform for our subcontractors and our clients (respectively “Subcontractors” and “Clients”) to view the status of their respective bids or projects. Please note that we collect additional personally identifiable information from our Subcontractors and Clients that we do not collect from general users of the Site. Information contained herein that only applies to Subcontractors and Clients is clearly marked.

In many cases, you choose the amount of information you supply. There may be instances where some of the information that we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary.

When someone visits the Site, our web servers automatically gather information that allows the Site to communicate with the visitor’s computer during the visit. We also may use any of the following information: the number of visits to a Site, which parts of a Site visitors select, IP address (the Internet address assigned to your computer from your Internet Service Provider), domain type, browser type (e.g., Safari or Internet Explorer) and date and time of day. We use this information for statistical purposes that help us design and administer the Site. Those types of information do not disclose personally identifiable information that would permit us to identify or locate individual visitors.
In addition to the foregoing, we use information collected from our Subcontractors and Clients as further described in the section entitled, “Subcontractors and Clients.”
Disclosure of Information
Third-Party Information Sharing:
We do not sell, trade or rent to any unaffiliated third parties your personal information collected on our Site. We may use the anonymous data and the personal information collected through our Site for statistical purposes and for improving the Site, as well as for our marketing purposes, as part of our responses to your questions or requests for information and potentially when sending commercial emails to you. We may engage a third party’s software or services to assist us with these analyses and activities in which case such information may be shared with them for these purposes (e.g., your email address with our outbound email marketing provider, if any).
Disclosure Exceptions:
- We reserve the right to disclose your personal information to appropriate third parties if we are required to do so by law or we reasonably believe that such action is necessary;
- To comply with legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order;
- To protect our rights and property;
- If the Site, Stevens Construction or substantially all of our assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that we go out of business or enter bankruptcy, user information, including personal information, would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party;
- We may also share personal information when assisting in fraud protection or investigation;
- To protect against misuse or unauthorized use of our Site, products, or services; or
- During emergencies, such as when we believe someone’s physical safety is at risk.
Subcontractors and Clients
Collection and Use of Subcontractor and Client Information:
Our Subcontractors and Clients will receive access to a protected portion of our Site, called the “Plan Room.” Subcontractors and Clients will set up an account and can use the Site to view the status of their respective bids or projects. Subcontractors and Clients may be required to disclose limited personal information to obtain access to the Plan Room. We may also collect information from surveys and questionnaires completed by our Subcontractors and Clients.
Protection of Subcontractor and Client Privacy:
Subcontractors and Clients should never share their login username or password, and they should always log out when finished using the Site. Subcontractors and Clients should inform us immediately if they believe their private login information has been compromised. We are not responsible if a Subcontractor or Client allows third parties access its account.
Security Measures
We will take reasonable measures which we believe are appropriate to protect your information from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction, and, where possible, will ask that any third parties to whom we may transfer your information take comparable steps to protect that security. Although we will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of any visitor information collected, we shall have no liability for disclosure of any visitor information obtained due to errors in transmission or the unauthorized acts of third parties. Email is not a secure form of communication. Please do not send us your credit card number, social security number or any other personal information via email.
