Signing up for these communications is voluntary.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by:

  • Clicking the unsubscribe link included in an email, or
  • Contacting us at sales@triplejcranch.com

Submitting a general contact or availability form does not automatically enroll you in ongoing marketing emails unless you separately request or consent to receive them.

5. PHONE NUMBERS AND TEXT MESSAGES

If you provide a phone number through our website, Triple JC Ranch may use it to respond to your inquiry or communicate with you regarding the request you submitted.

Providing your phone number through a general contact or availability form does not, by itself, constitute consent to receive recurring promotional or automated marketing text messages.

If SMS marketing is added in the future, separate consent language and opt-out procedures will be provided where required.

6. COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

Triple JC Ranch may use cookies and similar technologies to help:

  • Operate the website
  • Remember privacy preferences
  • Measure website traffic
  • Understand website performance
  • Improve navigation and usability
  • Maintain security
  • Prevent spam or misuse

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. Others may be used for analytics or marketing purposes.

Where available, visitors may use the Cookie Preferences link in the website footer to review or change their cookie choices.

You may also control certain cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some technologies may affect website functionality.

7. ANALYTICS AND THIRD-PARTY TECHNOLOGIES

We may use third-party services to help operate, secure, analyze, or improve the website.

These services may include:

  • Website hosting providers
  • Analytics providers
  • Email marketing platforms
  • Contact-form providers
  • Spam-prevention or security services
  • Cookie and consent-management providers
  • Website maintenance providers

These providers may process information as necessary to provide their services to Triple JC Ranch.

If advertising, remarketing, or additional tracking technologies are implemented in the future, this Privacy Policy and the website’s privacy controls should be updated to accurately reflect those practices.

8. HOW WE SHARE INFORMATION

We do not sell personal information for money.

We may disclose information to trusted service providers that help us operate our website and business, including providers supporting:

  • Website hosting
  • Security
  • Analytics
  • Email communications
  • Form processing
  • Website maintenance
  • Customer communications

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to:

  • Comply with applicable law

  • Protect our rights or property
  • Investigate fraud or security concerns
  • Protect the safety of Triple JC Ranch, our customers, or others
  • Complete a business transaction such as a merger, sale, or transfer of business assets, if one occurs

We do not authorize service providers to use information for unrelated purposes except as permitted or required by law.

9. TARGETED ADVERTISING AND SALE OF PERSONAL DATA

Triple JC Ranch does not sell personal data for money.

Certain analytics, advertising, or online marketing technologies may, depending on how they are configured and applicable law, constitute a “sale,” “sharing,” or processing for targeted advertising.

If Triple JC Ranch uses technologies that trigger applicable opt-out rights, we will provide the required controls.

Visitors may use the Cookie Preferences link in the footer to manage applicable website privacy choices.

10. GLOBAL PRIVACY CONTROL

Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a browser-based privacy signal that allows users to communicate certain opt-out preferences automatically.

Where Triple JC Ranch is legally required to recognize a valid universal opt-out mechanism, we will process recognized signals such as GPC in accordance with applicable law.

Colorado currently recognizes GPC as a valid Universal Opt-Out Mechanism for businesses subject to the Colorado Privacy Act.

11. COLORADO AND OTHER STATE PRIVACY RIGHTS

Depending on where you live, the nature of our data-processing activities, and whether an applicable privacy law applies to Triple JC Ranch, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information.

These may include the right to request:

  • Access to certain personal information we maintain about you
  • Correction of inaccurate personal information
  • Deletion of certain personal information
  • A portable copy of certain personal information
  • Opt-out of certain sales of personal data
  • Opt-out of certain targeted advertising
  • Opt-out of certain profiling where applicable

To submit a privacy request, contact:

sales@triplejcranch.com

Please include enough information for us to understand and respond to your request.

We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.

If an applicable privacy law gives you the right to appeal a decision regarding your privacy request, you may submit an appeal by replying to our response or contacting us again at the email address above and stating that you wish to appeal the decision.

12. DATA RETENTION

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:

  • Respond to inquiries
  • Maintain customer communications
  • Provide requested updates
  • Maintain appropriate business records
  • Resolve disputes
  • Protect our business and website
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and why it was collected.

13. DATA SECURITY

Triple JC Ranch uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no website, electronic transmission, or data-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Visitors should use reasonable care when transmitting information online.

14. THIRD-PARTY LINKS AND SOCIAL MEDIA

Our website may contain links to:

  • Social media platforms
  • Processors
  • Partner ranches
  • Restaurants
  • Other third-party websites or services

Triple JC Ranch does not control the privacy, security, or data practices of third-party websites.

Your interaction with those websites is governed by their respective privacy policies and terms.

15. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

Triple JC Ranch’s website is intended for a general audience and is not directed toward children under 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13.

If we learn that personal information from a child under 13 has been collected through our website without appropriate authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

16. DO NOT TRACK

Some web browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting.

Because there is not a single universally accepted standard governing all Do Not Track signals, our website may not respond to traditional Do Not Track settings.

Where required by applicable law, however, we will honor recognized universal opt-out mechanisms such as Global Privacy Control as described above.

17. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in:

  • Our website
  • Business practices
  • Technology
  • Services
  • Legal or regulatory requirements

When changes are made, the updated effective date will appear at the top of this page.

We encourage visitors to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
