When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, the visitor’s IP address, and browser user-agent string to help with spam detection.

Contact Forms & Quotations

When you submit a contact or quote request, we collect your name, email, phone number, address, and project details so we can respond and provide an estimate. We keep form submissions for customer service purposes. We do not use the information you submit for marketing unless you explicitly opt in.

Media

If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for your convenience so you don’t have to re-enter your details next time. These cookies last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we set cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last two days, and screen options cookies last one year. Selecting “Remember Me” will keep you logged in for two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.

We may use website analytics (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand site usage and improve our services. Analytics may use cookies and collect anonymised information such as pages visited, time on page, device type, and IP address truncated per tool settings.

Retention of Your Personal Data

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this policy—such as providing estimates, scheduling work, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing agreements. Usage data for analytics is retained for shorter periods unless needed to improve security or functionality, or where we are legally required to retain it longer.

Transfer of Your Personal Data

Your information may be processed at our offices and in other locations where the parties involved in processing are located. This means your information may be transferred to and maintained on computers outside your state or country where data protection laws may differ.

We take reasonable steps to ensure your data is treated securely and in accordance with this policy, and that no transfer occurs to an organisation or a country without adequate safeguards in place.

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data. If you have an account, you can update some information in your account settings.
