DAWGS Website Privacy Policy
Effective August 2026. This policy explains how DAWGS collects, uses, shares and protects information when you visit dawgsinc.com, submit a form or communicate with us online.
Scope
This policy applies to the DAWGS website and online forms that link to it. It does not automatically govern a customer’s separate service agreement, employee records, applicant systems operated under another notice or third-party websites. When another notice or contract applies to a particular interaction, that document may provide additional terms.
Information We Collect
We may collect information you provide, such as name, work email, phone number, organization, job role, property address, property type, vacancy status, photographs, opening information, preferred contact method and message content. Careers inquiries may include a résumé and employment information. Do not submit access codes, financial-account data, Social Security numbers, medical information or other sensitive details unless DAWGS specifically requests them through an approved secure method.
- device, browser, IP address and approximate location
- pages viewed, links used, referring source and session activity
- form-submission, campaign and communication information
- cookie, analytics and preference data where permitted
How We Use Information
DAWGS may use information to respond to inquiries; evaluate a property and prepare a recommendation or quote; confirm coverage; provide, support and improve services; route partnership, media, vendor or careers messages; operate and secure the website; measure content and marketing performance; prevent misuse; maintain business records; and meet legal obligations. We may combine online information with customer or business records when reasonably necessary for these purposes.
We may share information with service providers that support hosting, analytics, customer relationship management, communications, security, document storage and business operations, subject to appropriate terms. Information may also be shared within DAWGS, with advisers, in connection with a business transaction, or when required to protect rights, safety, property or legal interests. DAWGS does not disclose personal information for purposes unrelated to the interaction without an appropriate basis.
The site may use essential cookies and similar technologies, along with analytics or advertising tools where permitted. These technologies can remember preferences, understand traffic, measure campaigns and improve the site. Available cookie choices depend on the technology and jurisdiction. Browser controls and any on-site consent tool can be used to manage non-essential technologies, although blocking some features may affect site operation.
Retention and Security
DAWGS retains information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose collected, business and service records, dispute resolution, security and legal obligations. Retention periods vary by record. We use administrative, technical and physical measures intended to protect information, but no website, transmission or storage method can promise perfect security. Contact DAWGS if you believe information was submitted to the wrong property or account.
Your Choices and Privacy Requests
You may unsubscribe from marketing communications through the message instructions and can request help with certain personal-information access, correction or deletion rights that apply in your jurisdiction. DAWGS may verify identity, authority and the scope of a request, and some records may be retained when permitted or required. Use the Contact page and select Privacy Inquiry. Authorized agents should identify their authority.
Children, External Links and Changes
The website is intended for business and property-related audiences and is not directed to children under 13. DAWGS is not responsible for third-party privacy practices linked from the site. We may update this policy as the website, services or legal requirements change. The effective date will be revised, and material changes may receive additional notice when appropriate.

Use the effective date to identify the current version. Website features, privacy practices and legal requirements can change, so revisit the page when a decision depends on an older copy.
