1. Who We Are

We do not perform the services listed on the Site. Providers are independent businesses, not our employees, agents, or partners.

4. How We Share Your Information
We may share information with:
- Local Service Providers. When you submit a quote request or contact form, we share the details you provide (name, contact information, service needed, location) with one or more Providers so they can respond to you directly. Once shared, a Provider’s own use of your information is governed by that Provider’s privacy practices, not this Policy.

- Legal and Safety Reasons. If required by law, subpoena, or legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of the Company, our users, or the public.
- Business Transfers. In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, subject to standard confidentiality protections.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some Site functionality.
7. Data Retention
We retain personal information submitted through forms for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose it was collected for (such as connecting you with a Provider), to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. We periodically review and delete data that is no longer needed.
8. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
