Plain English summary: We collect only what we need to run the free audit tool and improve our service. We do not sell your data. We do not share it with advertisers. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

1 Information We Collect

Information you provide directly

When you use the Homies Help audit tool, you may provide us with:

  • Your business name and address
  • Your email address (if you choose to receive audit results)
  • Any messages you send to contact@homies.help

Information collected automatically

When you visit homies.help, our servers automatically record standard technical information, including:

  • Your IP address and approximate geographic location (city/region level)
  • Browser type, operating system, and device type
  • Pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs
  • Date and time of your visit

This information is collected through standard server logs and, if enabled, analytics tools. It does not identify you personally on its own.

2 How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect solely for the following purposes:

  • To provide the audit service. Your business name and location are used to generate your visibility report.
  • To send your results. If you provide an email address, we use it to deliver your audit report. We do not add you to a marketing list without your explicit consent.
  • To improve the service. Aggregated, anonymized usage data helps us understand how people use the tool and how we can make it better.
  • To respond to your inquiries. If you contact us directly, we use your contact information to reply.
  • To comply with legal obligations. We may use or retain information as required by applicable law.

We do not use your information for advertising profiling, behavioral tracking, or any purpose not listed above.

3 Sharing Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share it only in the following limited circumstances:

Service providers

We work with a small number of trusted third-party vendors that help us operate the site (for example, web hosting, email delivery, and analytics). These providers are contractually obligated to use your information only to provide services to us and not for any other purpose.

Legal requirements

We may disclose information if we are required to do so by law, court order, or other governmental authority, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.

Business transfers

If Homies Help is acquired or merged with another company, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email or a prominent notice on our site before your information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

4 Cookies & Tracking

We use a minimal set of cookies necessary to make the website function properly:

  • Session cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser, used to maintain your session as you use the audit tool.
  • Analytics cookies: If we use an analytics service (such as a self-hosted or privacy-first analytics tool), it may set a cookie to help us count unique visitors and understand usage patterns. We do not use Google Analytics or Meta Pixel.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Doing so may limit some functionality of the audit tool.

5 Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy:

  • Audit results and associated business information are retained for up to 12 months to allow you to return and compare results over time.
  • Email addresses are retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion.
  • Server logs are automatically purged after 90 days.

You may request deletion of your data at any time (see Section 6 below).

6 Your Rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Deletion: Ask us to delete your personal data.
  • Portability: Request your data in a machine-readable format.
  • Objection: Object to processing of your data for certain purposes.
  • Opt-out of marketing: Unsubscribe from any emails we send at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email or by contacting us directly.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at contact@homies.help. We will respond within 30 days.

7 Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. These include HTTPS encryption on all pages, restricted access to data systems, and regular security reviews.

No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

8 Children's Privacy

Homies Help is intended for use by business owners and adults only. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 16. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

9 Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If we make material changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you — for example, by posting a notice on the homepage or sending an email to any address you have provided.

Your continued use of homies.help after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
