4th Systems, LLC (DBA 4th Systems & 4thsystems here forward referred to as 4th Systems) operates a local electrical company. This privacy policy describes privacy-related policies and practices for 4th Systems websites, products, and services.
Privacy Policy for our public website at www.4thsystems.com
This section explains what and how 4th Systems collect, uses, stores and protects the information gathered from its Website. By using and visiting the Website, you agree to this Policy and the uses made of your information as set forth herein or amended hereafter.
4th Systems does not collect personally identifiable information (e.g., postal address, email address, telephone number) about you unless you choose to provide it to us through an online form or via e-mail. Typically, clients or prospective clients provide us with information. We will use this information only for the purposes for which you provided it and will store it for a reasonable time for legitimate business purposes.
Our website also automatically creates logs regarding your visits to www.4thsystems.com, such as features that you use, the actions that you take, and the information that you access. We generally use this information in statistical and aggregate formats to assess the effectiveness of our website, to better understand the ways the website is being used and to improve the Website experience.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
If you are receiving text messages from us and wish to stop receiving them, simply reply with the word “STOP” to any message you receive. You may also reply “HELP” for assistance.
We only collect data for use to provide you with information on digital marketing for your business. If you want your data deleted from our records, please send us an email at privacy@4thsystems.com. We use cookies on the website to customize and provide personalized information to help you succeed in your business.
4th Systems has reasonable security measures in place of information in our care from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. Only authorized employees have access to the data you provide and that access is limited by need. Our employees who have access to the data you provided have agreed to maintain the confidentiality of such information. No method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure; therefore, while the company strives to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, it cannot guarantee absolute security.
We intend the website to be used only by adults. Children are to obtain their parents’ permission prior to sending any personally identifiable information to us over the Internet. Neither the Website nor the Client Portal knowingly or intentionally collects information on children under the age of 13. If we discover that a child under the age of 13 has supplied personally identifiable information to 4th Systems via the Website or Client Portal without their parent’s consent, we will use reasonable attempts to ensure that this information is deleted from our system.
We use privacy-friendly technology to understand how visitors use our website and improve their experience finding the care they need. We use a single first-party cookie for website analytics — it stays on our domain and never follows users to other websites. We do not use third-party tracking cookies or advertising networks. We also monitor website traffic to detect and block malicious bot activity and unauthorized access attempts, helping keep our infrastructure and your data secure.
Our website analytics do not collect any personal health information, medical conditions, or treatment interests through browsing activity. The only data gathered includes general usage patterns such as where users came from, pages visited, time spent on site, and how they navigate our services. This helps us make our website easier to use and ensures important health resources are easy to find.
User privacy is paramount — we do not sell, share, or transfer any personally identifiable visitor information to third parties, advertising networks, or data brokers. Where anonymous advertising measurement is used, only irreversible cryptographic hashes and anonymous conversion codes are shared — never plain-text names, emails, phone numbers, or any information that could identify you.
We respect the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser sends a GPC signal, our website will automatically detect it and disable all attribution and analytics data collection. No identifiers will be created, no cookies will be set, and no analytics scripts will load. You can enable GPC in your browser’s privacy settings or by using a browser that supports it by default, such as Brave or DuckDuckGo.
We measure the effectiveness of our advertising by reporting anonymous conversion events to advertising platforms. When users arrive at our website from an advertisement and later take an action (such as submitting a form, making a call, or booking an appointment), we may notify the advertising platform using a color-coded system (red, orange, yellow, white, green) that represents general conversion stages — never revealing who our users are or what specific care they’re seeking. These color codes are universal across all industries and cannot be used to identify any medical condition, treatment type, or personal information. This anonymous reporting uses only a random click identifier, irreversible cryptographic hashes, and a color code. It simply helps us understand which channels are effective at helping people find the services they need, allowing us to focus our resources on the most helpful advertising channels.
You can opt out of anonymous advertising measurement when interacting with us. Our forms and scheduling tools include a consent checkbox that allows you to decline data sharing with advertising platforms before submitting your information. If you opt out, no data — not even anonymous conversion events — will be sent to any advertising platform. We encourage you to consent, as it helps others like you find and benefit from the services we offer. If you would like to request deletion of any data associated with your browsing activity, click this link: DELETE MY DATA to immediately remove all identifiers, cookies, and analytics data from your browser and our systems. Your request will be processed immediately. Alternatively, you can contact us at support@4thsystems.com. All our technology partners, including APAS® Cloud, have signed Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) to ensure strict security and HIPAA-compliant handling of any data. Users can clear their browsing data anytime through browser settings, giving them complete control over their information.
4th Systems generally does not sell, distribute or disclose your personally identifiable information collected from the Website to third parties without your consent. However, we may release information to a third party if required by a legal process such as a subpoena or a search warrant. Moreover, 4th Systems may share certain information with trusted third-party partners. These 4th Systems contractors are prohibited from using the information for purposes other than performing services for 4th Systems. Finally, 4th Systems may transfer any information that we have, including any personally identifiable information, to a successor entity in connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or other corporate changes.
4th Systems may change and update this Privacy Policy, including materially changing the use made of personal information described herein. Any change or update to our privacy policy will be posted on our website under “Privacy Policy” at least 30 days prior to their implementation. Your continued use of the website after the effective date of any changes will constitute your acceptance of all of the changes.
When you submit your information through our contact forms and check the consent box, you expressly consent to receive SMS text messages from 4th Systems related to your inquiry, requested services, appointment scheduling, appointment reminders, job updates, and customer support.
SMS consent is not a condition of purchase. Message frequency may vary depending on your interaction with our team. Message and data rates may apply.
You can opt out of SMS messages at any time by replying STOP to any message. For assistance, reply HELP or contact us at support@4thsystems.com.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.
