This information allows us to provide accurate quotes, plan our work, and perform the services safely and effectively.

We do not collect sensitive categories of personal data (such as health data or biometric data) unless you voluntarily provide them and we have a lawful basis to process them. If you provide such information in a message or inquiry, we will use it only for the purpose for which it was provided and in accordance with this policy.
Sources of Information
We obtain personal information directly from you when you fill out the contact form, request a quote, book a service, call or email us, or interact with the Site in a way that identifies you. We may also receive information indirectly when a third party (e.g., a family member or property manager) books services on your behalf, in which case we assume that the person providing the information has your consent or authority to do so. We do not purchase or acquire personal information from data brokers for marketing purposes.

We use the personal information we collect for the following purposes:
- To provide, schedule, and deliver shrub trimming, tree care, and garden maintenance services at your property, including communicating with you about appointment times, access, and any changes to the scope or schedule of the work.
- To respond to your inquiries, process your requests for quotes, and provide information about our services, pricing, and availability.
- To send you service reminders, follow-up communications, or relevant updates about our offerings (e.g., seasonal care tips, new service options) where you have agreed to receive such communications. You may opt out at any time by contacting us or using the unsubscribe mechanism in our messages.
- To improve our services, the Site, and our business operations, including by analyzing how visitors use the Site, which pages are most viewed, and which services are most requested, so we can tailor our content and offerings accordingly.
- To comply with applicable laws and regulations, respond to lawful requests from courts, law enforcement, or other authorities, enforce our Terms of Use, and protect our rights and the rights of others, including in connection with legal proceedings or disputes.
- To prevent fraud, abuse, or misuse of the Site or our services, and to ensure the security and integrity of our systems and data.
We will not use your personal information for purposes incompatible with those described above unless we have notified you and, where required by law, obtained your consent.
Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal information only where we have a lawful basis to do so. Depending on the jurisdiction that applies to you, such basis may include: (a) performance of a contract with you, such as providing the shrub trimming or tree care services you have requested; (b) your consent, where we have asked for it (e.g., for non-essential cookies or marketing communications); (c) our legitimate interests, such as improving our services and Site, preventing fraud, and communicating with you about your bookings, provided that such interests are not overridden by your rights; and (d) compliance with a legal obligation. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. Where we rely on legitimate interests, you may have the right to object to certain processing in accordance with applicable law.
Sharing and Disclosure of Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:
- Service providers: We may share your information with trusted third parties who assist us in operating our business and the Site, such as hosting providers, email or communication services, analytics providers, and payment processors. These providers are contractually bound to use your information only for the purposes we specify and to protect it in accordance with applicable data protection standards.
- Professional advisors: We may disclose your information to our lawyers, accountants, insurers, or other professional advisors when necessary for the provision of their services to us, subject to obligations of confidentiality.
- Legal and regulatory: We may disclose your information when required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others, to investigate fraud, or to respond to a legal process.
- Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or bankruptcy, your information may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to the same privacy commitments set out in this policy.
Any sharing is limited to what is reasonably necessary for the stated purpose. We do not allow our service providers to use your personal information for their own marketing purposes.
International Transfers
Your personal information is primarily processed and stored within the United States. If we or our service providers transfer your information to countries outside your country of residence, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses approved by relevant authorities or other mechanisms recognized under applicable law, so that your information receives an adequate level of protection. You may request further information about the safeguards we use by contacting us at the details below.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including to provide shrub trimming and tree care services, maintain records of our business relationship, handle disputes or claims, and comply with legal, tax, or regulatory obligations. For example, we may retain contact and transaction information for several years after your last service for accounting and legal purposes. When retention is no longer necessary, we securely delete or anonymize your data so that it can no longer identify you. You may request deletion of your personal information subject to our need to retain it for lawful purposes.
Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Such measures may include access controls, encryption where appropriate, secure transmission protocols, and training of personnel who handle personal data. Despite our efforts, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security and encourage you to use strong passwords where applicable and to contact us promptly if you suspect any unauthorized use of your information.
