HomeRemodelEstimator.com ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we store and protect it, and the choices and rights you have. We deliberately collect as little personal data as possible — our calculators are free to use and require no account.
Information we collect
We only collect personal information that you choose to give us, plus limited technical data needed to run the site:
- Information you provide. When you request a PDF estimate or a consultation, we collect the details you enter in the form — typically your full name, email address, mobile number, and city.
- Messages you send. If you email, call, or message us, we keep that correspondence so we can respond and follow up.
- Usage and device data. Anonymous analytics such as pages viewed, calculator interactions, approximate region, browser type, and referring site.
- Cookies and similar technology. Small files used for session state, preferences, and aggregate analytics. You can browse and use the calculators without submitting any personal information.
How we use your information
- To deliver the PDF estimate or other content you requested.
- To respond to your questions, support requests, and feedback.
- To arrange an optional follow-up with a vetted professional if — and only if — you request a consultation.
- To improve our calculators, cost models, and content based on aggregate, de-identified usage.
- To maintain the security and integrity of the website and prevent abuse.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We never rent or trade your contact details. We share data only in these limited situations:
- Service providers. Trusted vendors who help us operate the site (for example, hosting, database, email, and analytics providers) process data on our behalf under confidentiality obligations.
- With your consent. If you ask us to connect you with a professional for a consultation, we share only what is needed to make that introduction.
- Legal reasons. When required by law, regulation, or valid legal process, or to protect our rights, users, or the public.
Data storage and security
Form submissions are stored in a managed database (Supabase). We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards — including encryption in transit and access controls — to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work to protect your data and limit who can access it.
Data retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected — for example, to deliver your estimate and respond to follow-ups — or as required by law. You can ask us to delete your record at any time, and we will do so unless we are legally required to keep it.
Cookies and analytics
We use cookies and privacy-conscious analytics to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect some site features but will not prevent you from using the calculators.
Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete the personal data we hold about you, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected] and we will respond within a reasonable time. You can also unsubscribe from any optional follow-up communications at any time.
Children's privacy
Our website is intended for adults planning home improvement projects. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "last updated" date above. Material changes will be reflected on this page, and your continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
