At Practice Sales and Appraisals (“we,” “our,” “us”), we are committed to safeguarding your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect from you, how we use it, and the measures we take to protect it. By using our website, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Who We Are
Our website address is: www.ircroofs.com
Information We Collect
-
Automatically Collected Information:
Our web servers automatically collect domain names of visitors, but not their email addresses. This information is aggregated to measure the number of visits, average time spent on the site, pages viewed, and other site statistics. This data helps us understand how our website is being used and how we can improve its content.
-
Personal Information:
In certain areas of our website, we may request that you provide personal information for a specific purpose. This information may include your name, address, telephone number, email address, or fax number. For example, we may collect this information when you request information, ask a question, or seek a service from us.
-
Comments:
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
-
Media:
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Use of Collected Information
-
Aggregated Data:
The domain name information we collect is not used to identify individual users. Instead, it is analyzed in aggregate form to help us improve our website’s performance and user experience.
-
Personal Information:
When you provide personal information, we use it solely to respond to your inquiries, process requests, or provide you with the services you have requested. We do not sell, lease, or share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes.
-
Comments Data:
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
-
Legal Obligations:
We will release your personal information if you direct us to do so, if required by law, or under legally limited circumstances, such as to protect against fraud or unauthorized transactions.

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Security of Your Information
We take the security of your personal information seriously and have implemented strict physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to protect it from unauthorized or inappropriate access.

If you subscribe to our email newsletter, you may unsubscribe at any time by following the instructions provided in the email.
Accessing and Updating Your Information
We strive to ensure that your personal information is accurate and up-to-date. If you need to update or correct your personal information, please contact us directly at 818-999-9595. Currently, our website does not offer a way for users to update their personal information online.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
