The Services may contain links to other websites and services. We are not responsible for the privacy policy or other practices employed by sites and services linked to or from our Services nor the information or content available there.
Sharing your personal information with third parties
Your personal information will only be shared with third parties where you have requested us to do so or requested us to provide a service to you that requires us to do so (for example, if you request us to collect competing quotes from solar companies, your details would be sent to these companies only).
In the event this is done, we will have a contractual privacy clause with such third parties to ensure that your data will not be re-used for any other purpose than the specific purpose for which your data has been shared. That third party will delete your personal information, and ours, on your request.

From time to time, we pay to advertise the content and tools on InstantRoofQuote.com by way of advertisements on other websites such as Google Adwords, Google Display, and Facebook advertising. These third party advertisers use tracking cookies, pixels, and feedback information to inform us of your interaction with our advertisements on their platform. Such information does not identify you personally and you can prevent these third-party advertising platforms from tracking your interaction in accordance with the settings and privacy policies of those third-party platforms.
