Customer-submitted photos are kept confidential within our project estimation records and will never be published publicly or utilized for advertising without express prior consent from the property owner.
04Communications via Email, Telephone, SMS & WhatsApp

05Hosting, Service Providers & Infrastructure
Our static website is hosted on shared web server infrastructure provided by Hostinger. When an estimate form is submitted, data is processed through our secure server-side PHP dispatch scripts and delivered via authenticated SMTP mail protocols to our designated business email address (estimates@generalroofingsolution.com).
Our infrastructure providers process data only as necessary to deliver website hosting and email transport services in accordance with standard industry security protocols.

- No Invasive Advertising Trackers: We do not deploy third-party advertising tracking pixels, Meta Pixel, cross-site behavioral tracking cookies, or commercial fingerprinting scripts on this website.
- Server Logs: Like standard web servers, our hosting environment may record technical access logs (such as IP addresses, browser types, referring pages, and request timestamps) solely for systems security, debugging, and rate-limiting enforcement against automated spam.
07Data Retention & Security Standards
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect submitted customer information against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or disclosure:
- Encryption in Transit: All communications between your browser and our server are encrypted using modern Transport Layer Security (TLS/HTTPS).
- Form Protections: Our backend implements cryptographic token checks, honeypot spam filters, rate limiting, and strict file attachment extension and size validations.
