How we use information

We use information to prepare cost estimates, match homeowners with contractor partners, route and deliver lead details, respond to contact requests, operate the website, prevent spam, measure performance, and improve our services.

How information is shared

When you submit a lead form, we may share your name, phone number, email address, location, service selected, estimate range, project details, and communication preferences with selected contractor partners that may contact you about your project request.

We may also share information with service providers that help operate the website, process payments, send emails, provide analytics, verify CAPTCHA, and secure the platform. We do not sell homeowner contact details as a general marketing list.

Data retention

We keep lead, contact, consent, routing, and audit records for as long as reasonably needed to operate the marketplace, maintain business records, resolve disputes, comply with legal obligations, and improve fraud prevention. We may retain aggregated or de-identified analytics data for longer.

Your rights and choices

You may request access, correction, deletion, or communication preference changes by contacting us. Some records may be retained where needed for security, legal compliance, accounting, dispute resolution, or audit history.

Lead forms let you request no emails, no text messages, or no phone calls. Those preferences are stored with your request and shared with the matched contractor partner.

Cookies and analytics

We may use cookies, similar technologies, and analytics tools to understand site usage, improve user experience, prevent abuse, and measure traffic. You can control many cookies through your browser settings.
