What is collected through this website, how it is used, and the arrangement behind it.

Coverage

Two things are set out below: what chicagocmmcalibration.com does with the information it receives, and who is paid when a request is placed. Both cover this website and the requests made through it, and both are stated in full, not summarised.

Last updated: September 21, 2026.

Referral and Marketing Disclosure

This site is a marketing and referral website, operated by Chicago CMM Calibration and Repair. It is not a calibration laboratory, and no CMM Calibration work is performed by the operator of chicagocmmcalibration.com.

Each request submitted here is passed to an external laboratory. Accreditation is held by that laboratory, its own quality management system governs the work, and the certificate or report is issued in its own name. Selection rests on three things: accreditation that is current and covers the measurement, capability demonstrated for the measurement actually requested, and a record of delivering it.

Payment reaches the operator of this website in connection with that introduction, and may be a referral fee, a fixed fee for the use of this website, or a commission on work that is placed. The price quoted to you is not changed by it, and it gives the operator no role in performing, approving or certifying any measurement. The same disclosure appears in the terms & conditions, so the commercial relationship behind this site is stated in both places, not left implicit in either.

What Is Collected

Request detail is the first category. It is whatever a quotation cannot be prepared without: your name, company, email address and telephone number; the item, the quantity, the measurement points and the tolerances; the standard required and the turnaround needed.

Technical detail is the second, and it is the ordinary record any web server keeps — IP address, browser and device type, the referring page, and the pages viewed here.

Payment card details are not collected through this website at all.

How Information Is Used

Information supplied with a request is used to review that request, to obtain a quotation from a laboratory able to perform the work, and to correspond with you about it. Technical browser information is used to keep the site available and secure and to understand which pages are used.

Information collected here is not sold, and it is not rented, traded or supplied to third parties for their own marketing.

Recipients of Information

Three groups see request detail, and no others.

  • The laboratory or laboratories asked to quote or perform the work.
  • The service providers who host this website, deliver its email or provide its analytics, each acting on instructions and none permitted to use the information for its own purposes.
  • A court, regulator or other body to which disclosure is required by law, and an accreditation body exercising a right of access to a performing laboratory's records.

Confidentiality of Technical Detail

Drawings, specifications, tolerances, measurement data and results supplied with a request are treated as confidential, on the same basis as the confidentiality obligations that apply to accredited laboratory work. They are made available only to those who need them to prepare a quotation or complete the work.

Where the law requires information to be disclosed, you are notified that the disclosure has been made, unless notifying you is itself prohibited.

Cookies

Cookies are used here for two things and no others: to make the site function, and — where analytics is enabled — to count visits in aggregate. Blocking or deleting them is possible in most browsers. Doing so does not prevent use of this site, though a submitted form may then not be recorded correctly.

How Long Records Are Held

Inquiry records are retained while they are needed to answer the request, and for as long afterwards as accounting and record-keeping obligations require. They are then deleted, or the identifying detail is stripped from them. The records a performing laboratory holds are governed by that laboratory's own records policy.

Requests and Choices

What is held about you can be disclosed to you on request, corrected on request, or deleted on request. The contact page carries the routes for making one, and an answer follows within thirty days. Any marketing email carries an unsubscribe link, honored as soon as it is received.

Revisions and Governing Law

Where this statement is updated, the version published at chicagocmmcalibration.com is the one that applies, and no other. It is governed by the laws of Illinois.
