Privacy Policy

Information processed through the website

EarwigFacts does not currently provide user accounts, comments, newsletters, or a website contact form. You are not asked to submit your name, email address, or street address directly through the site.

Like most websites, hosting, security, analytics, and similar systems may automatically process technical information such as IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location derived from IP, timestamps, and interaction events such as clicks on a call button.

Telephone calls

When you call a number shown on EarwigFacts, the call may be handled by independent call-routing, marketing, service-network, or home-service partners. Those parties may receive your telephone number, call date and time, call duration, routing information, approximate location, and information you choose to provide during the conversation.

Calls may be monitored or recorded for quality, training, compliance, attribution, or service purposes where permitted by law. If recording applies, additional notice may be provided during the call. Do not provide sensitive information unless it is necessary and you are comfortable providing it to the party handling the call.

How information may be used

• Operate, secure, maintain, and improve the website
• Understand page usage and whether navigation or call buttons work
• Route calls and respond to home-service inquiries
• Measure referrals, advertising, and partner performance
• Prevent fraud, misuse, and security incidents
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce applicable terms

Third parties

Information may be processed by website hosting providers, analytics providers, call-tracking or telecommunications providers, marketing partners, service networks, and independent home-service businesses. Their processing is governed by their own policies and applicable agreements.

EarwigFacts may link to external websites. Once you leave EarwigFacts or speak with an independent provider, that party’s privacy practices may apply.

Cookies and similar technologies

The website or its service providers may use cookies, logs, pixels, local storage, or similar technologies for essential operation, security, analytics, attribution, or performance measurement. Browser settings may allow you to block or delete certain technologies, although doing so can affect functionality.

Retention and security

Information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, subject to operational, contractual, fraud-prevention, and legal requirements. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and absolute security cannot be promised.

Your choices and rights

You may choose not to call, may limit information shared during a call, may adjust browser privacy settings, and may leave the website. Depending on where you live, applicable law may provide additional privacy rights concerning access, correction, deletion, or use of personal information. Because EarwigFacts does not currently offer a direct submission channel, requests may need to be directed to the third party that collected the information, such as the call handler or service provider.

Children

EarwigFacts is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children under 13. The website does not knowingly solicit personal information from children.

Policy changes

This policy may be updated as website features, service providers, or legal requirements change. The “Last updated” date identifies the current version.
