Last updated: 2026-11-11

This policy explains what information we collect, why, who we share it with, and how you can control it.

How your information is shared

When you submit a quote request, your information is shared with up to three licensed contractors who serve your ZIP code. Those contractors are independent businesses. Once they receive your information, their own privacy practices apply, and they may contact you by phone, text, or email.

We also share limited data with service providers who operate the site:

We do not sell your personal information to list brokers or data resellers.

Cookies and advertising

We use cookies for site functionality and analytics. Third-party advertising partners, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

You can opt out of personalized advertising from Google at Google Ads Settings, and opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info. See the Cookie Policy for the categories we use.

Legal basis and your rights

We process quote request information on the basis of your consent, which you give by submitting the form and accepting the consent language shown on it. You can withdraw consent at any time by contacting us.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information, to object to processing, or to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. We respond to verified requests within 30 days.

If you are a California resident, you have rights under the CCPA/CPRA including the right to know, delete, correct, and opt out of sale or sharing. We do not sell personal information as that term is defined under the CPRA. If you are in the EEA or UK, you have rights under GDPR including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and portability, and the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.

Data retention

Quote request records are retained for 24 months from submission, which covers typical project timelines and any follow-up dispute. Analytics data is retained in aggregate form. You may request earlier deletion.

Children

This site is not directed to children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has submitted information, contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We use HTTPS for all pages and restrict access to submitted information to staff and systems that need it. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects your information we will notify affected users as required by applicable law.

Changes and contact

Material changes to this policy will be posted with a new "last updated" date. Questions or requests: [email protected].
