This Privacy Policy explains how HVAC Plainly (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit hvacplainly.com (the “Site”). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Information you give us. If you contact us by email or through a contact form, we receive your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use it only to reply to you.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting provider and analytics tools automatically record technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring page, and the date and time of your visit. We use this data to keep the Site secure, fix problems, and understand which content is useful.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We and our partners use cookies to remember your preferences, measure traffic, and show advertising. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; some parts of the Site may not work as intended if you do.
Advertising and Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to show ads on the Site. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this Site and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.eu (for users in Europe).
For more details, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland are shown a consent message before personalized ads or non-essential cookies are used. You can change your choice at any time using the privacy settings link on the Site.
Analytics
We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as how often you visit and which pages you view. You can prevent this by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Affiliate and partner links
Some links on the Site may be affiliate or referral links. If you click them and make a purchase or request a quote, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Those partner sites have their own privacy policies, which we do not control.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers that help us run the Site (such as hosting, analytics, and advertising partners), or when required by law.
Data retention and security
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described above. We use reasonable technical measures to protect it, but no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict its processing, and to withdraw consent. California residents have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know what personal information is collected and to opt out of its sale or sharing. To make a request, email us at hello@hvacplainly.com.
Children’s privacy
The Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page, and the “Last updated” date above will change.
