Information We Collect
Texas Water Damage Pros collects information that helps us respond to your water damage emergencies and provide restoration services throughout Texas. When you contact us through our website at txwaterdamagepros.pages.dev, by phone, or through our online forms, we may collect your name, phone number, email address, physical address of the property requiring service, and details about the water damage situation you are experiencing.
We also collect technical information automatically when you visit our website. This includes your IP address, browser type, operating system, the pages you view, the time and date of your visit, and the referring website that directed you to our site. This information helps us understand how visitors use our website and identify opportunities to improve our online presence.
If you request a service estimate or schedule an appointment, we may collect additional information relevant to your restoration needs, such as insurance policy details, property ownership information, and photographs of the damage. Providing this information is voluntary, though certain details may be necessary for us to provide accurate estimates and effective service.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to deliver water damage restoration services, respond to emergency calls, provide cost estimates, schedule appointments, and communicate with you about your service requests. Your contact information allows our team to reach you quickly during emergency situations, which is critical when water damage requires immediate attention to prevent further property destruction and mold growth.
We may also use your information for internal business purposes, including customer service improvement, quality assurance, training, and recordkeeping. With your consent, we may contact you after service completion to request feedback about your experience or to inform you about related services that may benefit your property's recovery and prevention of future damage.
Texas Water Damage Pros does not sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. We do not use your information for purposes unrelated to water damage restoration services without obtaining your explicit consent.
Phone Call Handling
When you call Texas Water Damage Pros, your call may be recorded for quality assurance, training, and customer service purposes. Recorded calls help us ensure that our representatives provide accurate information, appropriate emergency guidance, and professional service during stressful situations. We will notify you at the beginning of any recorded call that monitoring or recording may occur.
We collect the phone number from which you call, the date and time of your call, and the duration of the conversation. This information helps us track response times, manage our emergency dispatch operations, and follow up on service requests. If you provide information during a phone call that is necessary for service delivery, such as property addresses or insurance details, we enter this information into our service management system.
You may request that we not record a specific phone call, and we will honor such requests to the extent practical, though we may need to discontinue the call if recording is essential for our quality assurance program. You may also request access to recordings of your calls or ask that specific recordings be deleted, subject to our legal recordkeeping obligations.
