- Your mobile or business phone number
- Your mailing or service address
- Details about your project or your business that you choose to share with us
- Billing information, which is processed by our payment provider and never stored on our servers
We also collect limited technical information automatically when you visit our website, such as your IP address, browser type, the pages you viewed, and the site that referred you. This is standard web analytics and is used to improve the site.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your questions and provide quotes
- Deliver the services you hired us for
- Send you service updates, project status, invoices, and support messages
- Send text message notifications you have asked to receive, such as an alert when a form on your website is submitted

Text Messaging and Mobile Information
We do not sell or share your SMS opt-in data or personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Information sharing with subcontractors in support services, such as customer service, is permitted. All other use case categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
If you give us your mobile number and opt in to text messages, we use it only to send you the messages you signed up for. Standard message and data rates may apply. You can stop messages at any time by replying STOP. You can request help by replying HELP or by calling 571-350-0017.
Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing any service from us.
Full details are on our SMS Terms and Conditions page.
How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We do not rent or trade it. We share information only in these situations:
- Service providers. We use trusted vendors to run our business, such as web hosting, email delivery, text message delivery, analytics, and payment processing. They may only use your information to perform their service for us.
- Legal requirements. We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or a valid government request, or to protect our rights, safety, or property.
- Business transfer. If our business is sold or merged, information may transfer as part of that transaction.
Again, mobile phone numbers and text messaging consent are never shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
Cookies and Analytics

We may use Google Analytics and similar tools. These services collect usage data subject to their own privacy policies.
How We Protect Your Information
We use industry standard safeguards including encrypted connections (HTTPS), access controls, and secure hosting. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
