Information We Collect

Directory usage

• Basic request metadata such as IP address and user-agent (used for security and abuse prevention).
• Pages you visit and the links you click may be recorded in server logs.

Provider listings (public content)

• Company name, locations, service area, and capabilities.
• Contact methods displayed on provider pages (such as phone numbers, emails, websites, and quote links) when available.

Note: provider contact details on public pages are intended to help visitors contact providers directly.

Claims and edit suggestions

• Information you submit when claiming a listing (for example: business email, business phone, proof URL, and notes).
• Information you submit when suggesting an edit (for example: suggested value, reason, optional email).
• Abuse-prevention metadata such as IP address may be stored with submissions.

Provider accounts

• If you sign in, authentication is handled by our auth provider.
• We maintain a profile record tied to your auth user ID so we can manage roles and listing ownership.

How We Use Information

• Operate and maintain the directory.
• Moderate and verify listing claims and suggested edits.
• Prevent fraud, spam, and abusive automated access.
• Respond to support requests.

How We Share Information

• Public provider pages may display contact information and listing details.

Cookies And Local Storage

We may use cookies or local storage that are necessary for sign-in, security, and basic site operation. We do not run third-party advertising cookies.

Retention

We keep submissions (claims, suggested edits) and related metadata as long as needed for moderation, audit history, and abuse prevention. We may delete or anonymize information when it is no longer needed.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the directory and its data. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
