Last updated: [Month Day, Year]
1. Who We Are
The Sealcoating guys (“we,” “our,” “us”) provides residential and commercial sealcoating and related asphalt maintenance services.
2. What Information We Collect
- Contact details
When you reach out—whether through our website form, by phone, or in person—we gather the basics we need to stay in touch: your name, street address, phone number, and email. - Project details
To give an accurate quote, we may ask about the size of your driveway or parking lot, see photos you send us, and note any scheduling preferences or special instructions. - Payment details
When it’s time to pay, you supply card or check information. We never store full card numbers ourselves; everything is handled through a secure third-party payment processor. - Website usage data
Like most sites, ours automatically captures technical info such as your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and cookie identifiers. We use this anonymous data to keep the site running smoothly and understand which pages people find helpful.
Kids’ privacy: Our services and website are meant for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
3. How We Use Your Information
- To give quotes & schedule work
- To send updates about weather delays, appointment reminders, or invoice links
- For payment processing through our trusted payment partner
- To improve our website (analytics help us see what pages people find useful)
- Marketing (optional) — with your consent, we may email occasional specials or maintenance tips. You can unsubscribe anytime.
4. Cookies & Similar Tech
Our site uses basic cookies so pages load correctly and to see anonymous traffic stats (via Google Analytics or a similar tool). You can block cookies in your browser settings, but parts of the site may not work as intended.
5. Sharing & Disclosure
We never sell your personal info. We only share it:
- With service providers who help us run the business (e.g., payment processor, email service). They can’t use it for anything else.
- If required by law (court order, subpoena, etc.).
- To protect rights & safety of our customers, employees, or property.
6. Data Security
We use industry-standard safeguards (HTTPS encryption, secure payment gateways, limited employee access). No system is 100 % foolproof, but we work hard to protect your data.
7. Your Choices
- Review / update your info: Email us at [email].
- Delete your info: Ask, and unless we need it for legal or accounting reasons, we’ll remove it.
- Opt-out of marketing: Click “unsubscribe” in any promo email or contact us directly.
- Cookie controls: Adjust your browser settings.
8. Region-Specific Rights
If you live in a place with extra privacy rules (e.g., California CCPA, EU GDPR), you may have additional rights like data portability and the right to restrict processing. Contact us and we’ll honor those requests as required by law.
9. Links to Other Sites
Our website may link to supplier sites or articles. We’re not responsible for their content or privacy practices—check their policies.
10. Changes to This Policy
We might update this policy as laws or our practices change. We’ll post the new date at the top and, if changes are major, we’ll let you know by email or a site notice.
