Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

When you browse the directory as a consumer, we collect only the technical information necessary to serve the page — your IP address, browser type, and referring URL. This data is used solely for platform stability and security monitoring.

When you submit a direct inquiry form on a professional's profile, your name, email, phone number, and message are transmitted directly to that professional's office. We do not store inquiry content on our servers after transmission.

2. How We Use Your Data

Any personal information we collect is used exclusively to:

• Facilitate direct communication between consumers and verified professionals.
• Maintain platform stability, security, and performance.
• Prevent fraud, spam, and abusive behavior on the network.
• Comply with applicable legal obligations.

3. Cookies & Local Storage

We use a small number of essential cookies to maintain your session preferences and protect against cross-site request forgery. These are strictly functional — they are never used for advertising or tracking across third-party sites.

We do not use third-party advertising cookies, pixel tags, or social media tracking scripts on any directory or profile page.

4. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to any third party.

The only sharing that occurs is the transmission of your inquiry details directly to the professional you contacted, as that is the core purpose of the form. Service providers who host our infrastructure are bound by strict data processing agreements and may only use your data to provide services to us.

5. Data Retention & Deletion

Technical logs are retained for a limited period for security purposes. If you wish to request deletion of any personal data we hold, or to review what information we have about you, please contact us through our contact form. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and delete data that is no longer necessary for the purposes collected.
