Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

Pittsburgh Roofing Guide (pittsburghroofingguide.com) is an independent referral and informational website helping homeowners in Pittsburgh, PA and the surrounding suburbs find licensed roofing contractors. We are not a roofing contractor and do not perform roofing work.

2. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

• Information you provide: If you fill out a quote request form, we collect your name, email address, phone number, zip code, and project details. This information is shared with our third-party lead partners (such as Modernize or HomeAdvisor/Angi) so they can connect you with contractors.
• Usage data: We use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymous data about how visitors use this site — including pages viewed, time on site, and general location (city/region level). We do not collect personally identifiable information through analytics.
• Cookies: Our site uses cookies for analytics and to remember your preferences. See Section 5 for more details.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Connect you with roofing contractors in your area through our lead partners
• Improve the content and usability of this website
• Understand which pages and topics are most helpful to our visitors
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes. When you submit a quote request, your information is shared with our lead network partners as described above — this is the core service this site provides.

4. Third-Party Partners

This site works with the following types of third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy governing how your data is handled:

• Lead networks (e.g., Modernize, HomeAdvisor/Angi, Thumbtack): When you request a free quote, your contact information is transmitted to these platforms so local contractors can reach you. By submitting a quote request, you consent to being contacted by contractors in your area.
• Google Analytics: We use GA4 to analyze site traffic. Google may use this data in accordance with their own privacy policies. You can opt out via the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on .
• Affiliate partners (e.g., Home Depot, Lowe's): Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click a link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. See our Affiliate Disclosure for full details.

5. Cookies

We use cookies to operate Google Analytics and to improve your browsing experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may limit some functionality.

Types of cookies we use:

• Analytics cookies: Google Analytics (_ga, _gid) — track anonymous usage data
• Preference cookies: Remember settings like filter selections on our contractors page

6. Data Retention

We retain analytics data for 14 months as configured in Google Analytics. If you submit a quote request, your data is processed and passed to our lead partners; we do not store it independently beyond what our analytics tools capture.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of information we hold. To make a request, contact us at the email below. Note that for data shared with our lead partners, you will need to contact those partners directly.
