1. Introduction
QuoteLink respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we process personal information when customers request quotes and when service professionals receive, buy, respond to, or manage leads.
2. Information we collect
We may collect names, contact details, location details, service request details, professional profile information, verification information, payment records, communication records, website usage data, device data, and support or dispute information.
3. How we use information
We use personal information to create quote requests, match customers with professionals, process payments, manage lead purchases, detect fraud, improve lead quality, provide support, resolve disputes, send service messages, and comply with legal obligations.
4. Sharing lead information
QuoteLink is a lead marketplace. When a customer submits a quote request, relevant request details may be shown to suitable professionals. Customer contact details are generally only shown to professionals after they are allowed to access or purchase the lead.
5. AI-assisted scoring and matching
We may use automated tools, including AI-assisted scoring, to estimate lead quality, match requests with relevant professionals, detect abuse, and improve the platform.
Users may contact us if they believe a score, match, refund decision, or account restriction is incorrect.
6. Direct marketing
We may send marketing messages where permitted by law. You can opt out of direct marketing at any time. We may still send transactional messages such as payment confirmations, dispute updates, account notices, and security alerts.
7. Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards, including access controls, HTTPS, secure password handling, backups, monitoring, administrative restrictions, and payment-provider separation for card processing.
Security principle
Privacy protection depends on both technical controls and disciplined operational access to customer and professional information.
8. Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer period is required or allowed by law, tax obligations, accounting obligations, disputes, fraud prevention, or platform security.
9. Your rights
You may ask us to confirm whether we hold your personal information, give you access to it, correct it, delete information we are no longer authorised to keep, object to certain processing, withdraw marketing consent, or ask for review of certain automated decisions.
