Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 2025
FixFlow ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it. We've tried to keep it straightforward.
What Information We Collect
When you submit a request through FixFlow, we collect:
- Your name — so the plumber knows who they're contacting
- Phone number — so they can call you back
- ZIP code — to match you with a local plumber
- Issue type and urgency — so we can prioritize emergencies and route you to the right pro
- Any notes you add — to give the plumber context about your issue
We also automatically collect some technical info like your IP address (which we hash for privacy), browser type, and how you found us (e.g., Google, a referral link). This helps us improve our service and understand where our users come from.
How We Use Your Information
We use your info to:
- Connect you with a plumber — that's the whole point
- Communicate with you — to confirm your request or follow up if needed
- Improve our service — we look at aggregated data to make FixFlow better
- Prevent fraud and abuse — to keep the platform safe for everyone
We don't sell your personal information to data brokers or advertisers. That's not our business model.
Sharing With Plumbers & Contractors
When you submit a request, we share your information with plumbing contractors in our network who service your area. This includes:
- Your name and phone number
- Your ZIP code
- The type of plumbing issue and urgency level
- Any notes you provided
This is necessary for them to contact you and help with your plumbing problem. Once they have your info, their own privacy practices apply to how they handle it.
How Long We Keep Your Data
We keep your request information for up to 2 years. This allows us to handle any follow-up questions, improve our matching, and comply with legal requirements. After that, we delete or anonymize it.
If you want us to delete your data sooner, just email us (details below) and we'll take care of it within 30 days.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access your data — ask us what info we have about you
- Correct your data — if something's wrong, let us know
- Delete your data — request that we remove your information
- Opt out of marketing — we don't send much, but you can always unsubscribe
To exercise any of these rights, email us at support@fixflowleads.com. We'll respond within 30 days.
Cookies & Analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Keep our site working properly
- Remember your preferences
- Understand how people use FixFlow (via analytics tools like Google Analytics)
- Track where our traffic comes from (so we know which marketing works)
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies if you prefer. Just know that some parts of the site might not work as well without them.
Security
We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (HTTPS) and secure storage. That said, no system is 100% secure. If you ever suspect your information has been compromised, please contact us immediately.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we'll post a notice on our website. Your continued use of FixFlow after changes means you accept the updated policy.
