Laser Photonics Corporation (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates Laserphotonics.com and related websites. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about how we collect, use, and store your information. This Privacy Policy explains our practices, including your rights regarding your data.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide and improve our services, including:
a. Non-Personally-Identifying Information
Like most websites, we collect data such as browser type, language preference, referring site, and visit timestamps. This helps us understand website usage trends. We may share aggregated, non-identifiable statistics publicly (e.g., in reports).
b. Personally-Identifying Information
We collect personal information based on your interactions, such as:
-
Account Creation: Username, email address, or other details when you sign up.
-
Forms: Name, email, phone number, or other details submitted via contact forms (e.g., Contact Form 7). We may capture marketing data (e.g., UTM parameters like source or campaign) in hidden form fields to analyze campaign performance.
-
Transactions: Personal and financial information required for purchases or inquiries.
-
Analytics: IP addresses, device info, and session data via Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to track user behavior.
You may refuse to provide personal information, but this may limit access to certain features (e.g., form submissions or account creation).
c. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience:
-
Essential Cookies: Enable core functionality (e.g., session management).
-
Analytics Cookies: GA4 cookies (_ga, _gid) track usage, such as page views and events.
-
Marketing Cookies: Support campaign tracking (e.g., UTM parameters).
You can manage cookies via your browser settings or our consent banner (where applicable). Disabling cookies may affect site functionality. For EU/EEA users, we use Google’s Consent Mode to pause non-essential tracking until you consent.

Provide and improve our services (e.g., process form submissions, fulfill transactions).
-
Analyze website usage via GA4 to optimize performance and user experience.
-
Track marketing campaigns using UTM parameters to measure effectiveness.
-
Communicate with you (e.g., respond to inquiries, send updates about new features).
-
Comply with legal obligations or protect our rights and property.
3. Data Storage and Security
-
Storage: Form data (including UTM parameters and personal info) is stored in a secure database hosted by our trusted hosting provider and local databases. GA4 data is processed by Google in accordance with their Data Processing Terms.
-
Security: We use industry-standard measures (e.g., encryption, access controls) to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction of your data.
-
Retention: We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined (e.g., form data for 1 year, analytics data for 14 months in GA4) or as required by law.
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We share personal information only with:
-
Employees/Contractors: Those who need it to provide services and have agreed to confidentiality.
-
Third-Party Processors: Trusted partners like Google (for GA4) or hosting providers, bound by data protection agreements.
-
Legal Requirements: In response to subpoenas, court orders, or to protect our rights, property, or the public.

We do not sell or rent personal information.
5. International Data Transfers
If you’re in the EU/EEA, your data may be transferred to the US or other regions for processing (e.g., by Google for GA4). We rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses to ensure compliance. By using our site, you consent to these transfers.
