Information We Collect
Washington Water Damage Pros collects information that you voluntarily provide when you contact us for water damage restoration services. This typically includes your name, phone number, email address, property address, and details about the water damage emergency you are experiencing. We may also collect information about your insurance coverage if you choose to share it with us.
When you visit our website at wawaterdamagepros.pages.dev, our servers automatically log standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and the pages you access on our site. This data helps us understand how visitors use our website and identify any technical issues that need attention.
If you submit a service request through our online form, we retain that submission along with any follow-up communications. For customers who engage our restoration services, we maintain records related to the work performed, including photographs of damaged areas, written estimates, invoices, and correspondence with your insurance company when applicable.
How We Use Your Information
We use your personal information solely to provide and improve our water damage restoration services. The primary purpose is to respond to your emergency service requests, dispatch our restoration teams to your property, communicate with you throughout the remediation process, and complete billing and payment transactions.
Your contact information allows us to reach you quickly during time-sensitive water damage situations. We may use your email address or phone number to provide appointment confirmations, project updates, and follow-up communications to ensure your satisfaction with our work. With your explicit consent, we may occasionally contact you about related services such as mold prevention or connections for reconstruction contractors.
We analyze aggregated website usage data to improve our online presence and ensure that potential customers in Washington can easily find emergency water damage assistance when they need it most. We do not sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes under any circumstances.
Phone Call Handling
When you call our emergency line, your phone number is captured through caller ID and may be logged in our system to help us track and return calls efficiently. Calls may be recorded for quality assurance, training, and documentation purposes. If a call is recorded, you will be notified at the beginning of the conversation, and you may request that recording be discontinued.
Our phone systems are designed to route your call to the nearest available technician or dispatcher who can respond to your emergency. The information you provide during these calls is entered into our service management system and treated with the same confidentiality standards as information submitted through our website.
We retain call logs and associated records for a period necessary to complete your service request and satisfy any applicable legal or insurance documentation requirements. After this retention period, records are securely deleted or anonymized.

Third-Party Services
Washington Water Damage Pros engages select third-party service providers to support our operations. These may include payment processors for handling transactions, cloud hosting providers for data storage, and insurance claims management platforms when we coordinate directly with your insurance carrier.
We share only the minimum information necessary for these providers to perform their specific functions. All third parties with access to your data are contractually obligated to maintain appropriate security measures and are prohibited from using your information for any purpose other than the service they provide to us.
In certain situations, we may be required to disclose information in response to valid legal processes, such as subpoenas or court orders, or to protect our rights, property, or safety and that of our customers or others. We will always attempt to notify you of such disclosures unless prohibited by law.
Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our website uses SSL encryption to secure data transmitted between your browser and our servers. Internal access to customer records is restricted to employees and contractors who need the information to perform their job duties.
Despite our security efforts, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your information and encourage you to use caution when transmitting sensitive data over any network. If you have concerns about the security of a particular communication, please contact us by phone.
In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you promptly in accordance with applicable Washington state and federal laws.
Your Choices
You have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. To request a copy of your data or to make corrections, please contact us using the information provided below. We will respond to verifiable requests within the timeframes required by law.
You may opt out of receiving non-emergency communications from us at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in our emails or by requesting removal during any phone conversation. Because timely communication is critical during active restoration projects, you cannot opt out of service-related messages while work is in progress.
If you wish to close your account or have your information removed from our active systems, please note that we may retain certain records as required for legal compliance, insurance purposes, or to resolve disputes.
