Privacy Policy

QuoteFarm ("we," "us," "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data. QuoteFarm is operated by QuoteFarm LLC, based in Greenville, South Carolina.

By using QuoteFarm at quotefarm.io, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.

Information you provide directly:

• Name and email address when you create an account
• Trade type (e.g. electrical, plumbing, framing) selected during signup
• Payment information (processed securely by Stripe — we never store card numbers)
• Supplier discount notes and rep information you add to saved suppliers
• Price alert preferences you configure

Information collected automatically:

• Your approximate location (city/region level) used to show nearby suppliers
• Search queries you enter to find materials
• Suppliers you save and alerts you create
• Browser type, device type, and operating system
• Pages visited and time spent on the platform
• IP address for security and fraud prevention

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and improve the QuoteFarm platform
• Show you relevant supplier pricing based on your location
• Send price drop alerts you have configured
• Process subscription payments and manage your account
• Send transactional emails (account confirmation, password reset)
• Understand how contractors use the platform so we can improve it
• Detect and prevent fraud or abuse
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your data to serve third-party advertisements.

QuoteFarm uses your device location to show suppliers within your radius and calculate distances. Location access is requested in your browser and is optional — you can use the platform with a default location if you prefer not to share your precise location.

We do not store your precise GPS coordinates. Location is used in-session to calculate distances and is not retained after your session ends.

Your account data is stored securely using Supabase, a SOC 2 compliant database platform hosted on AWS in the US East region. We use industry-standard encryption for data in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest.

Authentication is handled by Supabase Auth with secure session management. Passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text. Google Sign-In is handled entirely by Google's OAuth infrastructure — we never see or store your Google password.

While we take reasonable measures to protect your data, no method of internet transmission is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

QuoteFarm uses the following third-party services to operate the platform:

• Supabase — database, authentication, and user management
• Stripe — payment processing for Pro and Team subscriptions
• Vercel — website hosting and deployment
• Railway — automated pricing data collection infrastructure
• Resend — transactional email delivery
• Google OAuth — optional Google Sign-In

Each of these services has their own privacy policies and data handling practices. We encourage you to review their policies if you have concerns.

QuoteFarm uses essential cookies to maintain your login session. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or tracking pixels.

We may use lightweight analytics (such as page view counts) to understand how the platform is used. Any analytics we use are privacy-focused and do not track individual users across the web.

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal information within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or compliance reasons.

Aggregated, anonymized usage data (such as search trends by material category) may be retained indefinitely as it cannot be linked back to individual users.

You have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate data in your account settings
• Request deletion of your account and associated data
• Export your saved suppliers and alert preferences
• Opt out of any marketing communications

To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@quotefarm.io and we will respond within 14 business days.

QuoteFarm is intended for use by contractors and construction professionals who are at least 18 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If we become aware that we have collected data from a minor, we will delete it promptly.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make significant changes, we will notify you by email or by displaying a notice in the platform. Your continued use of QuoteFarm after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
