By submitting a form, booking an appointment, or otherwise providing your phone number, you agree that Handymasters Painting and its service providers may contact you at that number by phone call and text message (SMS/MMS) about your request, appointments, and our services. These calls and messages may be made using automated technology, an automatic telephone dialing system, and artificial or AI-generated voices. Your consent is not a condition of any purchase.

Some of our calls and text messages are handled by an AI virtual assistant that helps us respond quickly and schedule estimates. If you ask, the assistant will tell you that it is a virtual assistant. You can ask to speak with a person at any time, and you can request that we contact you only by a human or only by text.

How AI Providers Use Your Information

Our AI assistant and communication tools are provided by third-party service providers that process call audio, transcripts, and messages on our behalf to operate these services.

Service Providers

We share information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our business, including customer relationship management (CRM) and scheduling software, phone and text messaging providers, AI voice and messaging providers, payment processors, hosting providers, and analytics services. These providers may only use your information to provide services to us.

Advertising Platforms

We may share limited information, such as whether a lead became an appointment, with advertising platforms like Meta, in hashed or protected form, to measure and improve our ads. This is not a sale of your information, and you can ask us not to do this by contacting us.
