Privacy Policy

 

Scope

This Privacy Policy describes how we handle your personal information for our services on the Service Estimator website. It applies generally to the service-estimator.com website and content and other related websites where this policy appears in the footer of the page. The policy that applies on any of our domains or sub-domains is always the policy that appears in the footer of each website.

 

Subject to the requirements of applicable law, we strive to provide a consistent set of privacy practices throughout the Service Estimator community. By accepting the Privacy Policy and the Non- Disclosure Agreement in registration, you expressly consent to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.

 

Collection

You can browse our site without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information, you are not anonymous to us. If you choose to provide us with personal information, you consent to the transfer and storage of that information on our servers.

 

We may collect and store the following personal information:

  • email address, physical contact information, and (depending on the service used) sometimes financial information, such as credit card or bank account numbers;

  • transactional information based on your activities on the sites (such as buying items or services that you generate or that relates to your account);

  • shipping, billing and other information you provide to purchase or ship an item or service;

  • community discussions and chat correspondence through our site, and correspondence sent to us;

  • other information from your interaction with our site, its services, including computer and connection information, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the site, ad data, IP address and standard web log information;

  • additional information we ask you to submit to authenticate yourself or if we believe you are violating site policies (for example, we may ask you to send us an ID to verify your address, or to answer additional questions online to help verify your identity;

  • other supplemental information from third parties (for example, if you incur a debt to Service Estimator, we will generally conduct a credit check by obtaining additional information about you from a credit bureau, as permitted by law).

Marketing

We don't sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent. We may combine your information with information we collect from other companies and use it to improve and personalize our services, content and advertising. If you don't wish to receive marketing communications from us or participate in our programs, simply indicate your preference in My Service Estimator account or by following the directions provided with the communication or advertisement.

 

Use

Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. You agree that we may use your personal information to:

  • provide the services and customer support you request;

  • resolve disputes, collect fees, and troubleshoot problems;

  • prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities, and enforce our Non-Disclosure Agreement;

  • customize, measure and improve our services, content and advertising;

  • tell you about our services, targeted marketing, service updates, and promotional offers based on your communication preferences; and

  • compare information for accuracy, and verify it with third parties.

Our Disclosure of Your Information

We may disclose personal information to respond to legal requirements, enforce our policies or protect anyone's rights, property, or safety. Such information will be disclosed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

 

We may also share your personal information with:

  • Other members of Service Estimator’s corporate staff to help detect and prevent potentially illegal acts and violations of our policies, and to guide decisions about other products, services and communications. Members of our corporate staff will use this information to send you marketing communications only if you’ve requested their services;

  • Service providers under contract who help with our business operations;

  • Other third parties to whom you explicitly ask us to send your information (or about whom you are otherwise explicitly notified and consent to when using a specific service);

  • Law enforcement or other governmental officials, in response to a verified request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity. In such events, we will disclose information relevant to the investigation, such as name, city, state, zip code, telephone number, email address, User ID history and IP address;

  • Service Estimator participants under confidentiality agreement, as we in our sole discretion believe necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, piracy, or other unlawful activity. In such events, we will disclose name, street address, city, state, zip code, country, phone number, email address and company name;

  • Other business entities, should we plan to merge with or be acquired by that business entity. (Should such a combination occur, we will require that the new combined entity follow this privacy policy with respect to your personal information. If your personal information will be used contrary to this policy, you will receive prior notice.)

Without limiting the above, in an effort to respect your privacy and our ability, we will not otherwise disclose your personal information to law enforcement, other government officials, or other third parties without a subpoena, court order or substantially similar legal procedure, except when we believe in good faith that the disclosure of information is necessary to prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss or to report suspected illegal activity.

 

Information You Share on Service Estimator

Your User ID is private on Service Estimator (and so it is not available to the public), and is connected to all of your Service Estimator activity. So if you associate your name with your User ID, the people to whom you have revealed your name will be able to personally identify your Service Estimator activities.

 

If you access our site from a shared computer or a computer in an internet café, certain information about you, such as your User ID, activity or reminders from Service Estimator, may also be visible to other individuals who use the computer after you.

 

Using Information from Service Estimator

Service Estimator enables you to share personal and financial information to complete transactions. To help protect your privacy, we allow only limited access to other users' contact, information to facilitate communication.

 

You agree to use user information only for:

  • Service Estimator transaction-related purposes that are not unsolicited commercial messages;

  • using services offered through Service Estimator, or

  • other purposes that a user expressly chooses.

Cookies

We use "cookies" (small files placed on your hard drive) on certain of our pages to help analyze our web page flow; customize our services, content and advertising; measure promotional effectiveness, and promote trust and safety. For more information about why we use cookies,

 

A few important things you should know about cookies are that:

  • We offer certain features that are available only through the use of cookies

  • We use cookies to help identify you and maintain your signed-in status

  • Most cookies are "session cookies," meaning that they are automatically deleted from your hard drive at the end of a session

  • You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although doing so may interfere with your use of some of our site services

  • You may encounter cookies from third parties on certain pages of their site that we do not control. (For example, if you view a web page of one of our third party partners, there may be a cookie placed by that web page.)

Account Protection

Your password is the key to your Service Estimator account. Use unique numbers, letters and special characters, and do not disclose your Service Estimator password to anyone. If you do share your password or your personal information with others, remember that you are responsible for all actions taken in the name of your account. If you lose control of your password, you may lose substantial control over your personal information and may be subject to legally binding actions taken on your behalf. Therefore, if your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately notify Service Estimator and change your password.

 

Security

Your information is stored on our servers. We treat data as an asset that must be protected and use lots of tools (encryption, passwords, physical security, etc.) to protect your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, as you probably know, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the site. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

 

Third Parties

Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document addresses only the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. If you disclose your information to others, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. Service Estimator does not control the privacy policies of third parties, and you are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties where applicable. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
