Advertising: Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and other third-party vendors use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other websites.

Third-party vendors and ad networks may also serve ads on the Site and use their own cookies, web beacons and similar technologies. We do not control these third parties’ cookies, and their use is governed by their own privacy policies.
Analytics: Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics (including through the Google Site Kit plugin) to understand how visitors use the Site.

How we share information
We do not sell your personal information for money. We share information only:
- With service providers that help us operate the Site (such as hosting, analytics and advertising partners)
- When required by law or to protect our rights, users or the public
- In connection with a business transfer, such as a sale of the Site
Some state laws consider the use of advertising cookies for targeted advertising to be a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. See “Your privacy rights” below for how to opt out.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:
- Know what personal information we collect and how we use it
- Request access to or deletion of your personal information
- Correct inaccurate information
- Opt out of targeted advertising and the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information
- Not be discriminated against for exercising your rights
California residents have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). Residents of other states, including Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Utah, Texas, Oregon and others with consumer privacy laws, may have similar rights.
To opt out of personalized advertising, use the opt-out tools listed above or adjust your cookie preferences using the consent banner on the Site where available. To make any other request, email us at contact@homecomfortanswers.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.
Visitors from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland: where required by law, we ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies, through a consent message on the Site. You have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection, and you can withdraw consent at any time.
Do Not Track
Some browsers send “Do Not Track” signals. There is no common industry standard for responding to these signals, and the Site does not currently respond to them. Where required by law, we honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.
Children’s privacy
The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Data security
We use reasonable measures to protect information, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. Email correspondence is typically retained for up to 24 months.
Links to other websites
The Site contains links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.
