Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 15, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Puffin Painting collects, uses, protects, and shares information when you visit this website, call, text, email, submit a quote form, or request painting, staining, color consultation, drywall, siding, trim, or repair service.

Information We Collect

We collect information you choose to send us so we can respond to your painting request. This may include your name, phone number, email address, service address, preferred contact method, service needed, photos or notes you provide, and details about painting, staining, color consultation, drywall, siding, trim, repair, or other project concerns.

When you use the website, basic technical information may also be collected automatically, such as your browser type, device type, pages visited, referring page, approximate location, IP address, and cookie or analytics data.

How We Use Information

We use information to respond to quote requests, schedule service, confirm availability, call or text you back, provide customer support, prepare for service visits, send service-related updates, protect the website from spam or abuse, improve the website, and maintain business records.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your contact information for unrelated marketing lists unless you separately agree to receive that kind of communication.

Calls, Texts, and Email

If you provide your phone number or email address, you authorize us to contact you about your request using phone, text message, voicemail, or email. Message and data rates may apply. You can ask us to stop non-essential text or email communication at any time, but we may still contact you when needed to complete an active service request.

Contact Forms and Spam Protection

Our forms may use security features such as hidden spam fields, timestamps, server logs, and validation checks. These tools help prevent automated submissions and protect the website. Form submissions are used to respond to your request and may be stored in email, website records, customer records, or scheduling systems.

Cookies, Analytics, and Website Tools

This website may use cookies, analytics tools, embedded maps, social links, browser storage, and similar technologies to understand website performance, improve user experience, measure traffic, and help people contact the business. You can adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies, but some website features may not work as expected.

When We Share Information

We may share information with trusted service providers who help us operate the website, host data, deliver email, manage forms, provide analytics, support scheduling, process business records, or perform other services for the business. We may also share information when required by law, to protect our rights, to prevent fraud or abuse, or as part of a business transfer.

We do not sell customer information to data brokers.

How Long We Keep Information

We keep information only as long as reasonably needed for service, communication, legal, tax, warranty, safety, dispute, and business record purposes. The exact retention period depends on the type of information and why it was collected.

Your Choices

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we maintain about you, subject to legal and business record requirements. You may also ask us to stop non-essential marketing messages. To make a request, contact us using the details below.

Children's Privacy

This website is intended for homeowners, property owners, businesses, and adults requesting painting service. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Security

We use reasonable safeguards to protect information, but no website, email system, text message, or internet transmission is completely secure. Please do not send highly sensitive information through the website form.

Third-Party Links

This website may link to third-party sites such as Google Maps, social media profiles, review platforms, payment tools, or partner websites. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new last updated date.
