By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

​

1. Information We Collect

We collect several types of information for various purposes to provide and improve our services to you.

Personal Information You Provide When you contact us (e.g., via quote request forms, email, phone, or other means), we may collect:

• Name

• Email address

• Phone number

• Mailing address or property location

• Description of your inspection needs (e.g., water tank details, storm damage description)

Automatically Collected Information When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information, including:

• Usage data (pages visited, time spent, referring/exit pages)

• Cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 5 below)

We use Google Analytics to collect and analyze this data (see Section 6).

Inspection Service Data In providing our professional services—including water tank inspections, unmanned aerial (drone/UAV) inspections, manned aviation inspections, and rapid response storm assessments—we may collect visual and media data such as:

• Photographs

• Videos

• Drone-captured imagery

• Other sensor or assessment data

This data is collected solely to perform the requested inspection, prepare reports, and deliver services to you (the client). It may incidentally include personal information (e.g., visible property details, license plates, or individuals if present). We treat this as confidential client-specific data.

​

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve our Site and services

• Process quote requests and communicate with you

• Perform and deliver inspection services (including generating reports)

• Analyze Site usage and trends via tools like Google Analytics

• Comply with legal obligations

• Protect against fraud or unauthorized access

• Send service-related communications (not marketing unless you opt in)

​

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it in these limited cases:

• With service providers (e.g., hosting, email, analytics like Google) who assist us and are bound by confidentiality

• With subcontractors or partners strictly necessary for delivering inspections (e.g., drone operators under contract)

• To comply with laws, regulations, court orders, or legal processes

• In connection with a business transfer (merger, sale, etc.)

• With your consent

Inspection media (photos/videos) is shared only with you (the client) or as required by law/contract.

​

4. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy, to provide services, or as required by law (typically [e.g., 7 years] for business records, or shorter for Site usage data). Inspection data is retained for the project duration plus a reasonable period for records/archiving (e.g., 1–5 years), after which it may be securely deleted unless you request otherwise.

​

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience, analyze usage, and for functionality.

• Essential cookies: For Site operation

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling them may limit Site features. For more, see our [Cookie Policy if you have one, or add a link/banner].
