How we collect, use and protect your information when you use Top5HomePros.
This Privacy Policy explains how Top5HomePros ("Top5HomePros", "we", "us", "our"), operated by EightySix Digital, collects, uses and protects information when you use top5homepros.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
Top5HomePros is an independent directory operated by EightySix Digital, a New Zealand-based business, providing an information and advertising service to users in the United States. You can reach us any time at hello@top5homepros.com.
When you submit our contact form or a Get Featured enquiry, we collect the details you provide, which may include your name, business name, email address, phone number, trade, town or city, chosen plan and any message. If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address.
Paid Featured placements are billed through Stripe. Stripe collects and processes your payment details directly under its own terms and privacy policy. We never see or store your full card details.
When you visit the Site, we and our analytics providers may collect your IP address, device and browser type, the pages you view, referring URLs and similar usage information through cookies and similar technologies.
We use essential cookies to make the Site work and analytics cookies (for example Google Analytics) to understand how the Site is used so we can improve it. You can control or block cookies through your browser settings. Where required, we honor recognized opt-out signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC).
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with service providers who help us run the Site, and only as needed for them to perform their service. These include form handling (Formspree), payments (Stripe), analytics (Google), hosting (Vercel) and email delivery. Each processes data under its own terms. We may also disclose information where required by law, or to protect our rights, users or the public.
Unlike many directories, we do not sell your details as "leads" to businesses. When you contact a listed business, you do so directly through the link on their page. Your enquiry to us is not passed on to third-party contractors.
We keep personal information only for as long as needed for the purposes described above, or as required by law, and then delete or anonymize it.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal information, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of it. To be clear, we do not sell your personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
California residents have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), and residents of states such as Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut and Utah have similar rights under their state laws. To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@top5homepros.com. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights, and you may use an authorized agent where the law allows.
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" setting. There is no agreed standard for responding to these signals, but we do honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where required by law.
The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We are based in New Zealand and serve users in the United States. Your information may be processed in New Zealand, the United States and other locations where our service providers operate. By using the Site, you consent to this processing.
The Site links to the websites of the businesses we list and other third parties. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Please review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "last updated" date above shows when it was last revised. Your continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
