  • Date and time of visits

  • Referring website or search source

This information may be collected through cookies, pixels, log files, analytics tools, or similar technologies. We use it to operate the website, understand how visitors use it, improve its performance, measure advertising results, and protect against fraud or misuse.

 

You may be able to manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the operation of certain website features.

 

How We Use Information

 

We may use the information we collect to:

 

  • Respond to questions and service requests

  • Prepare and deliver estimates

  • Schedule, confirm, and manage appointments

  • Provide water-heater and related home services

  • Process payments and maintain transaction records

  • Send service reminders, appointment updates, invoices, and other service-related communications

  • Provide customer support

  • Improve our website, services, and advertising

  • Maintain business, tax, warranty, and legal records

  • Prevent fraud and protect our customers, business, and website

  • Comply with applicable laws and enforce our agreements

 

Email and Text Message Communications

 

If you provide your email address or mobile number, we may send communications related to your inquiry, appointment, estimate, invoice, payment, warranty, maintenance reminder, or requested service.

 

With your consent where required by law, we may also send occasional marketing or promotional emails and text messages about services, maintenance reminders, special offers, and company updates from The Water Heater Guy.

 

Consent to receive marketing text messages is not a condition of purchasing goods or services. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. You may opt out of marketing text messages at any time by replying STOP. Reply HELP for assistance. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by selecting the unsubscribe link included in the email or contacting us.

 

Opting out of marketing communications will not prevent us from sending non-promotional messages related to an active inquiry, scheduled appointment, transaction, warranty, or service request.

 

We do not sell or provide mobile numbers, email addresses, or messaging consent information to third parties for their independent marketing purposes.

 

How We Disclose Information

 

We may disclose information to companies that help us operate our business, including:

 

  • Wix, our website platform

  • Housecall Pro, which supports scheduling, customer communications, estimates, invoicing, and payments

  • Payment processors and financial institutions

  • Telephone, text-messaging, and email providers

  • Website hosting, analytics, security, and technical-service providers

  • Accountants, insurers, attorneys, and other professional advisers

  • Government agencies or other parties when required by law

 

These providers may process information only as necessary to perform services for us or as otherwise permitted under their own agreements and privacy policies.

 

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or property; investigate fraud or misuse; comply with legal obligations; or complete a merger, sale, financing, or transfer of all or part of our business.

 

We do not sell personal information for money.

 

Third-Party Websites and Services

 

Our website may contain links to third-party websites or services, including Housecall Pro. Information submitted directly to a third party is governed by that party’s privacy policy. We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of third-party websites or services.

 

Data Retention

 

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, manage customer and warranty records, meet accounting and legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect our legitimate business interests. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.

 

Data Security

 

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards intended to protect personal information. However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

 

Please do not submit complete credit-card numbers, bank-account details, Social Security numbers, or other highly sensitive information through a general website contact form, email, or text message.

 

Your Privacy Choices

 

You may contact us to:

 

  • Ask what personal information we maintain about you

  • Request correction of inaccurate information

  • Request deletion of information, subject to legal and business record keeping requirements

  • Update your contact information

  • Opt out of nonessential communications

 

We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests. Some information may be retained when required for transactions, warranties, tax records, legal compliance, fraud prevention, or the establishment or defense of legal claims.

 

Depending on where you live and whether applicable privacy-law thresholds are met, you may have additional legal rights concerning your personal information.

 

Browser Privacy Signals

 

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” settings. Because there is no universally accepted standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to traditional Do Not Track settings.

 

Where required by applicable law, we will process recognized browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, in accordance with legal requirements.

 

Children’s Privacy

 

Our website and services are intended for homeowners, property managers, and other adults seeking home services. They are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

 

Changes to This Policy

 

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, services, technology, or legal obligations. The revised policy will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
