Visits to Our Website & Advertising Tools
This website (abelsmarine.com) uses Google Analytics and Google Ads to gather information about site visitors, analyze behavior, and measure the effectiveness of our online marketing.
We use these services to understand:

Conversion Tracking & Enhanced Conversions
When you interact with our website—specifically when you click our phone number links or submit a contact or service inquiry form—this interaction is recorded as a conversion event and sent to Google Analytics and Google Ads.
To ensure accurate performance reporting, we utilize Google’s Enhanced Conversions feature. When you submit a form on our website, the contact information you enter (such as your email address or phone number) is securely scrambled using a secure, one-way hashing algorithm (SHA-256) on your browser before it is sent to Google. Google matches this hashed data against its own logged-in user database to accurately attribute actions taken on our site to our advertisements. Your raw, unencrypted personal information is never exposed to Google, nor is it stored or used by Google for any other purposes.
Privacy Controls and Opt-Out
-
Data Retention: Event-level data stored by Google Analytics is set to be automatically deleted from Google’s servers after 2 months and User-level data is set to be automatically deleted after 14 months.
-
Opt-out: To opt-out of Google Analytics tracking completely, you can install the
Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on Google Ads Settings
Form Submissions
The information we collect from these forms consists of all the information you enter and your IP address. We use the submitted information to process your submission and to respond to it (if applicable). Contact Form submissions are processed and stored by Monday.com.
Submissions are stored in the website’s database (e.g. for backup, administrative and technical purposes) for 180 days.
If you want your records to be removed earlier please contact us.
To protect our website forms from automated abuse and spam, we use reCAPTCHA, a security service provided by Google. As the data controller, we have a legitimate interest in ensuring the security of our site. This service analyzes your interaction with our website (such as mouse movements, typing patterns, and IP address) to determine if you are a human user. This data is processed by Google as our service provider (Data Processor).
