Privacy Policy

Written by the Dehumidifier for Basement editorial team and reviewed for source accuracy. Last updated July 2026.

This policy explains what information the site collects, how it would be used, and the choices you have.

Information you give us

We collect user-submitted information including name, email, phone number, and ZIP code to help assess basement moisture issues. This information comes from the forms on this site: the ZIP code matching forms on the homepage and local pages, the sizing and running cost tool, the contractor quote request, and the moisture-checklist email signup.

How the information is stored and used

This data is securely stored and may be used to connect users with qualified local home improvement or waterproofing professionals. Submissions are stored in our own database with access restricted to site operators. We use them to assess local contractor availability, to follow up about a free inspection where you qualify, and to improve the guidance and calculators on this site.

What we do not do

We do not sell your personal data to unsolicited third-party marketing companies. We do not share your details with anyone other than a qualified professional you asked to be matched with, or a service provider that helps us operate the site. Consent is not a condition of any purchase, and you can ask a contractor to stop contacting you at any time.

How email addresses would be used

To send the Basement Moisture Inspection Checklist and occasional updates about basement moisture guides. Every email would include an unsubscribe link. We would not sell email addresses.

Affiliate links and cookies

Product links may be affiliate links. Clicking one may set a cookie on the retailer’s domain so the retailer can attribute a purchase. That cookie is controlled by the retailer, not by us. See the affiliate disclosure. Use of the site is also governed by our terms of service.

Analytics and logs

Standard server logs may record IP address, user agent and requested URL for security and troubleshooting. If privacy-respecting analytics are added, this section will name the tool and what it records.

Children

This site is intended for adult homeowners and is not directed at children under 13.

Your choices

• Do not submit a form if you do not want to be contacted.
• Unsubscribe from any email using the link in that email.
• Ask us to delete information you submitted through the contact form.
• Block or clear cookies in your browser settings.
