We only collect data you provide directly or through automated tools as described.

How We Use Your Personal Information

We use your information to:

  • Provide and improve our consulting services, such as building pricebooks, automating workflows, or training teams on ServiceTitan/Housecall Pro.

  • Communicate with you, including sending project updates, meeting reminders, or setup confirmations via email or SMS.

  • Process payments and manage client accounts.

  • Analyze website usage to enhance user experience and optimize our services.

Who We Share Your Personal Information With

We may share your information with:

  • Service Providers: Trusted vendors who assist with our operations, such as hosting (e.g., AWS), analytics (e.g., Google Analytics), payment processing, or SMS delivery (e.g., Twilio). These providers are contractually bound to keep your data confidential and use it only for our purposes.

  • Business Partners: With your consent, we may share limited data with platforms like ServiceTitan for integrations.

  • Legal Authorities: If required by law, regulation, or court order to protect our rights, property, or safety.

SMS Consent Non-Sharing: SMS consent and phone numbers are not shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes under any circumstances. Your SMS opt-in data is used solely by Beacon Co. and our SMS provider to deliver messages you’ve consented to receive.

SMS Communications

By providing your phone number and opting in (e.g., via our contact form or client onboarding), you consent to receive SMS messages from Beacon Co. for project updates, training schedules, or service confirmations. Message frequency varies based on your engagement. Standard message/data rates may apply.

  • Opt-Out: Reply “STOP” to any SMS to unsubscribe at any time. You can also contact us at privacy@buildwithbeacon.io.

  • Security: We use secure platforms (e.g., RingCentral, Twilio) to send SMS, and your phone number is protected with encryption and access controls.

Data Security

We use industry-standard measures (e.g., encryption, secure servers) to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no online transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You have the right to:

  • Access, correct, or delete your personal information.

  • Opt out of marketing communications (e.g., via “STOP” for SMS or unsubscribe links for email).
