Garland Decks & Patios, LLC
Website: garlanddeckspatios.com

Garland Decks & Patios, LLC values the trust of visitors and customers who rely on us for their outdoor living construction needs, including custom decks, patios, pergolas, gazebos and similar improvement services across North East Texas. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we handle it, why we store certain details, and how we protect your privacy every step of the way.

Our business is based on integrity and respect — and that extends to how we treat your personal information.


Information We Collect

When you visit our website, call us, or reach out through any inquiry form, certain information may be gathered to help us understand your needs and respond effectively. This includes your name, phone number, email address, service location, preferred materials, project details, and any information you voluntarily provide to help us prepare a quote or consultation.

We also automatically collect technical data such as IP address, browser type, device information, referral paths, time spent on pages, and general usage behavior. These insights help us improve performance, ensure smooth browsing, and understand how visitors use the site so we can continue enhancing the experience.

We do not collect or request sensitive financial, personal identification numbers, or any form of confidential government-related data through this website.


Use of Your Information

Your information is used for business purposes that benefit you as a potential or active customer. This may include:

  • Responding to project inquiries and scheduling design consultations

  • Providing accurate pricing quotes and project proposals

  • Understanding property conditions for service eligibility

  • Maintaining service/warranty records for long-term assistance

  • Enhancing website performance and communication

  • Sharing helpful updates related to our services

  • Guiding homeowners through material selections and financing options

Everything we collect supports the goal of delivering a smoother, safer, and more efficient experience.

We do not use your data to generate spam messaging, nor do we use information outside of normal customer service and communication.


Data Security and Protection

We follow responsible data protection methods to maintain the confidentiality of your information, including secure hosting environments, monitored website performance, and limited internal access to personal details. Our systems are designed to prevent unauthorized use or access.

Even with strong precautions, no internet platform can offer a 100% guarantee of protection. If any unexpected security risk is ever identified that could affect your information, we will notify relevant individuals as quickly as possible.


Cookies and Site Tracking

Cookies are small information files stored on your device to:

  • Improve website speed and responsiveness

  • Protect forms from spam submissions and bots

  • Monitor which content is useful to users

  • Support smoother navigation

You can control cookie settings or disable them through browser preferences, though some website functions may not work perfectly without them.


Information Sharing

We do not sell or share your personal details with advertisers or unrelated third parties.

Some information may be shared only when necessary to complete a job or support a financing request — which can include subcontractors, material suppliers, warranty administrators, or local permit authorities. These providers receive only relevant project-related information and are expected to handle it responsibly.

Analytics tools and web-hosting partnerships may also process technical data under strict confidentiality requirements.


Retention of Data

We maintain collected information only as long as it benefits the customer relationship or supports warranty documentation, service history, legal or permitting requirements, and long-term communication for your outdoor installation.

When data is no longer required, we remove or anonymize it responsibly.


Service Area–Related Privacy Considerations

We proudly serve homeowners throughout Garland, Dallas, Highland Park, Rockwall, McKinney, Frisco, Allen, Plano, Forney, Royse City, Fate, Greenville, Caddo Mills, Murphy, Nevada, Josephine, Celina, Prosper, Rowlett, Richardson, Sachse, Wylie, Mesquite, Sunnyvale and Lucas.

When evaluating a project within these locations, address information is used only to determine feasibility, scheduling, distance, and whether permits or inspections are needed. Private residential details remain secure and confidential.


Children’s Privacy

Our services are intended exclusively for residential property owners, authorized decision-makers, and adult homeowners. We do not knowingly collect information from individuals under 13 years of age. If any information were submitted by a minor, we would remove it upon request.


Your Choices and Rights

You have full control of your personal information. At any time, you may:

  • Ask what information we have about you

  • Request that we update or correct details

  • Request that non-essential information be deleted

  • Stop future communication at your request

If a customer chooses to discontinue service or communication, we respect those decisions immediately — while preserving any information still necessary for legal or warranty requirements.


Third-Party Websites

Our site may contain references to external sources such as social platforms, material manufacturers, or portfolio displays. Each external website maintains its own privacy rules. We cannot control or guarantee the policies of third-party sites, and we recommend reviewing them separately before providing any information.


Financing and Project Documentation

Some customers may choose to explore third-party financing options for outdoor upgrades. In such cases, limited personal details may be shared with approved financing entities — but only with direct consent from the homeowner requesting assistance.

We do not store or handle full credit or banking information within our website forms.


Policy Updates and Changes

Construction services evolve over time, and privacy guidelines continue to improve. As our business grows, we may revise this Privacy Policy to reflect:

  • New features on the website

  • Updated communication methods

  • Additional service protections for customers

  • Requirements based on legal or industry changes

Revisions will be posted to this page with the latest update date clearly shown at the top.

Please check this page occasionally to remain informed about our latest privacy practices.
