When you click a telephone link or place a call, technical information about the interaction may be used for analytics, call routing, attribution, service measurement or related business purposes.

Calls may be routed through third-party systems. Information provided during a call may therefore be received or processed by call-routing partners, advertisers, independent providers or other parties involved in facilitating the connection.

Those third parties may apply their own privacy notices, call-recording practices or data-handling procedures.

Plumbing Options Network does not control all data-handling practices of independent third-party companies.

9. Independent Plumbing Providers

If you are connected with an independent plumbing provider, the provider is a separate business with its own data practices.

Information you provide directly to that provider may be collected, used, stored or shared according to the provider’s own policies, business practices and legal obligations.

You should ask the provider directly if you have questions about how it handles your personal information.

10. Advertising, Referral and Marketing Relationships

Plumbing Options Network may participate in advertising, referral, marketing, lead-generation or call-routing relationships with third parties.

Information about visits, calls or other interactions may be used to measure the performance of those relationships, determine attribution or support business operations.

Plumbing Options Network may receive compensation when a user contacts, connects with or uses a service offered by a third party.

13. Data Retention
