Privacy Policy

This policy explains how MEC, Inc. handles information collected through this website and its contact, service-request, employment, and review forms.

Information you provide

When you contact MEC, request service, submit a review, or apply for a job, we collect the information you choose to send. This can include your name, email address, phone number, service address, project or repair details, review and rating, position of interest, and resume. Contact and service forms require information needed to respond; the employment form requires applicant contact details and a resume.

Information collected when you visit

Our website, hosting, security, and form services may process your IP address, browser and device information, requested pages, referring page, approximate time of a visit or submission, and security or spam-detection information. These records help operate the website, respond to inquiries, and protect forms from misuse.

How we use information

We use information to answer questions, prepare estimates, coordinate and perform electrical services, communicate about a request, review job applications, consider submitted feedback, maintain business records, and operate and secure the website. A job application is used to evaluate employment interest; sending an application does not create an offer of employment.

Forms, resumes, and email

Information submitted through a form may be stored in our WordPress form system and sent to the email accounts used to manage MEC inquiries or applications. Authorized MEC personnel and service providers supporting our website, communications, or hiring process may access it for those purposes. Please include only information relevant to your request or application. Do not send Social Security numbers, payment-card details, medical records, or copies of military identification or discharge documents through these forms. Ask us directly how to provide any documentation needed for a veteran discount.

Reviews and testimonials

Reviews already displayed on this website may come from customers or third-party review services. If you submit a review, we may contact you about it and request permission to publish your review and attribution. Contact details supplied with a review are used to manage the submission and are not intended for public display.

Cookies and third-party content

WordPress and our hosting, security, and form tools may use cookies or similar technologies for site operation, administrator sign-in, security, spam prevention, and form functionality. The site also displays third-party review content, including Google reviews through a review-display service. Loading that content or its images may send technical information, such as your IP address and browser details, to the provider. Third-party services operate under their own privacy policies. You can manage or delete cookies through your browser; blocking them may affect some features.

When information is shared

Information may be shared with providers that support our hosting, website maintenance, forms, email, security, and business operations, as needed for those services. We may also disclose information when required by law, to respond to lawful requests, or to protect the rights, safety, or security of MEC, our customers, or others. If our business is reorganized or transferred, relevant records may be included subject to applicable obligations.

Retention and security

Information can remain in form records, email, business systems, and backups. Retention depends on the nature of the request, ongoing customer or applicant relationships, business recordkeeping needs, and applicable requirements. Contact us if you want information corrected or deleted; we will review the request, including any records we need to retain. We use safeguards intended to protect information, but no website, email transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Your choices and requests

You may choose not to submit information, although we may be unable to respond to a request without relevant details. To ask about personal information you provided, request a correction or deletion, or raise a privacy concern, call (301) 739-2000 or use our contact form. We may need to verify your identity before acting. Requests and any applicable privacy rights are handled in accordance with the laws that apply to the information and our business.

Children and external links

This website is intended for customers, business contacts, and employment inquiries, not for children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, please contact us so we can review and address it. Links to other websites are provided for convenience; their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
