Privacy Policy

US Services Directory is a listing platform. We connect homeowners, renters, and small business owners with independent local professionals across the United States — we do not provide any of the services advertised here ourselves. That distinction shapes how your information moves: our purpose in collecting it is largely to pass the relevant parts to the businesses you want to reach, not to fulfil work for you directly.

Running a directory still means handling a certain amount of personal information, and we would rather explain plainly how we treat it than bury the details in dense legal language. This policy describes what we gather when you browse or submit a request through our website, why we gather it, who else may see it, and the control you keep over it.

By using this site, you accept the practices set out below. If any part of it doesn’t sit well with you, please write to us at [email protected] before continuing.

Information You Give Us Directly

Most of what we hold comes straight from you. When you fill out a quote request, contact form, or professional listing application, you may share your name, email address, phone number, ZIP code or street address, the category of service you need, a short description of the job, and your preferred timeframe or budget range. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we retain your email address and the date you signed up.

Service providers who apply to be listed supply additional business details: company name, license or registration numbers, insurance status, service radius, years in operation, and photographs of completed work. This material is meant for public display on your listing, so please don’t include anything you want kept private.

Information Collected Automatically

Like nearly every website, ours records certain technical details as you move through it. That includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring page, the pages you open, how long you stay on them, and the approximate city or region your connection maps to. We use cookies, pixels, and similar small files to remember your preferences, keep your session active, measure which listings attract interest, and understand how visitors arrive at the site.

You can clear or block cookies through your browser settings at any time. Doing so is entirely your choice, though some parts of the directory — saved searches, form progress, region defaults — may stop behaving as intended.

Why We Process Your Information

We put your information to a limited set of uses: passing your project details to the professionals best suited to handle it, responding to questions you send us, confirming that businesses applying for a listing are genuine, sending updates or promotional messages you have asked to receive, spotting fraudulent or abusive submissions, meeting legal obligations, and improving the design and usefulness of the directory over time.

Sharing With Third Parties

When you submit a quote request, we share the relevant contact and project details with one or more matching local professionals so they can reach you. That is the core purpose of the service, and it is the extent of our involvement — the work itself, and any agreement covering it, is between you and them. Those businesses are independent companies, not our employees, agents, or subcontractors, and once your information reaches them it is governed by their own privacy practices rather than this policy. We encourage you to ask them directly how they handle it.

We also rely on outside vendors for hosting, email delivery, analytics, payment handling, and customer support tooling. These providers may access data strictly to perform work on our behalf. Separately, we may disclose information when compelled by a subpoena, court order, or other legal process, or when necessary to protect the safety and rights of our users, our staff, or the public.

We do not sell your personal information for money.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you, ask that inaccurate records be corrected, request deletion, opt out of targeted advertising or profiling, and be free from discrimination for exercising any of these rights. Residents of states including California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, and Texas have specific statutory protections along these lines.

To make a request, email [email protected] with a description of what you need. We may ask for a detail or two to confirm your identity before acting, and we aim to respond within forty-five days.

Every marketing email we send contains an unsubscribe link. Removing yourself from those messages will not stop transactional replies about a request you have already submitted.

Data Retention and Security

We keep quote requests and correspondence for as long as needed to provide the service and satisfy our record-keeping duties, then delete or anonymize them. Listing information stays live until a business asks us to remove it. We protect stored data with encrypted connections, restricted staff access, and routine security review, while acknowledging honestly that no method of transmission over the internet is completely immune to risk.

Children

This directory is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under thirteen. If you believe a child has submitted details to us, contact us and we will remove the records promptly.

Updates to This Policy

We may revise this page as our services or legal obligations change. Material changes will be reflected in the “last updated” date above, and continued use of the site after a revision signals acceptance of it.
