Effective Date: October 24, 2025
Last Updated: October 24, 2025

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://www.standardrestoration.net.
Standard Restoration provides professional disaster restoration, repair, and remodeling services. Protecting your privacy is a top priority for us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit or interact with our website.

What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Contact Forms

When you submit information through a contact form on our website, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and any other details you choose to provide. We use this information to respond to inquiries, provide customer support, schedule appointments, and follow up on service requests. We do not share this data with third parties except as necessary to fulfill your request or comply with legal obligations.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics

We may use third-party analytics tools such as Google Analytics to better understand how visitors use our site. These tools collect data such as your IP address, approximate location, device and browser information, referring/exit pages, and timestamps. We use this information to improve website performance, content, and user experience.

Learn more about how Google uses data: https://policies.google.com/privacy. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the browser add-on available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

We do not sell or rent your personal data. We may share data only with:

Trusted service providers who help operate our website and business (e.g., hosting, email delivery, analytics), bound by confidentiality obligations;
Law enforcement or regulators when required to comply with applicable laws, subpoenas, or court orders.

No mobile information will be shared or sold with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All the stated categories in this privacy policy exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where We Send Your Data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Some analytics or hosting data may be processed by third-party providers as described above.
