Our CRM Integration

When you submit a contact form or request an estimate using our Quote Builder, your details (including contact details, project specifications, and upload files) are transmitted to and processed by our third-party Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system.

This CRM handles our client communications, service bookings, lead tracking, and quotation pipeline. All transfers to our CRM are protected by industry-standard encryption protocols (SSL/TLS) and secure API authentication.

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying any legal, accounting, reporting, or operational requirements. If you do not establish a service relationship with us, we will regularly purge legacy customer leads from our CRM system in accordance with our internal data management policies.

6. Security of Your Data

The security of your personal data is important to us. We implement appropriate technical, administrative, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. All form submissions on our Site use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption to secure data in transit. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
