What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
By submitting forms, you agree to receive marketing emails and SMS messaging from Bay Lighting. Contact team@baylighting.net for support.
SMS Messaging
You may choose to communicate with us via text message from us at Bay Lighting (which is deemed a part of “Online Services”). By sharing your mobile number, you consent to receiving text messages at the mobile number you provided to us, from us or on our behalf. Text messages from Bay Lighting are not part of a formal marketing campaign. Messages are generally initiated by customers/prospective customers to our staff in order to support premier lighting solutions and follow up conversation. You understand consent is not a condition of purchasing any property, goods, or services.
You can stop receiving text messages at any time by emailing team@baylighting.net with the phrase – “STOP TEXT MESSAGING.” After you email “STOP TEXT MESSAGING” you will receive an email to confirm that you have been unsubscribed from SMS messaging and you will no longer receive Bay Lighting text messages from us. Opting out of one form of communication does not mean you’ve opted out of other forms as well. For example, if you opt out of receiving text messages, you may still receive marketing email messages if you’ve opted in to receiving them.
If you want to join again, simply fill out a web form, give us a call, or email team@baylighting.net with the phrase – “SUBSCRIBE TO TEXT MESSAGING.” If you are experiencing issues with our messaging program contact team@baylighting.net. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. As always, message and data rates may apply for any messages sent to you from us and to us from you. If you have any questions about your text plan or data plan, it is best to contact your wireless provider. If you have any questions regarding privacy, please read our complete Privacy Policy. For the avoidance of doubt, our policy applies to our text messaging, including the agreement to arbitrate, jury and class action waiver, and limitations on our liability.

Who we share your data with
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
