Privacy policy
Last updated September 21, 2026.
Overview
AcreageReady provides rural-property guides, contractor-directory information, business-listing services, and quote-request tools. This privacy policy explains the types of information we collect, how we use and share that information, and the choices available to site visitors.
Information you provide
We collect information you choose to provide when you submit a quote request, business listing, correction, inquiry, or other form. Depending on the form, this may include your name, email address, phone number, business name, website, state, county, service area, project category, project timeline, estimated budget, project details, and other information you enter.
Quote requests and contractor matching
When you submit a quote request and provide consent, AcreageReady may use the information you provide to review the request, identify potentially relevant contractors, contact you about the request, and share the request and your contact information with contractors that may be able to serve your location and project type.
Submitting a quote request does not guarantee a contractor match, response, estimate, availability, pricing, or project result. Contractors are independent businesses and are responsible for their own privacy practices after they receive information that you authorized AcreageReady to share.
Business listing submissions
Contractors and service providers may submit business information for directory review. We may use submitted information to verify, review, publish, update, or communicate about a business listing. Information intended for a public business profile may become publicly visible if the listing is approved.
Automatically collected information
When you use AcreageReady, we and our service providers may automatically receive information such as your browser type, device information, approximate location derived from an IP address, pages viewed, referral source, interactions with site features, and similar technical or usage information.
Analytics
AcreageReady uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site, measure traffic and engagement, improve content and navigation, and evaluate site performance. Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies and may collect information about your device and interactions with the site.
You can learn more about how Google handles information from sites and apps that use its services by visiting Google's information for partner sites.
Advertising and Google AdSense
AcreageReady may display advertising through Google AdSense or other advertising providers. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to AcreageReady or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this site and other sites on the Internet.
Users may manage or opt out of personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings. Visitors may also learn about additional industry opt-out choices at AboutAds.
If other third-party advertising vendors or ad networks are used, they may also place or read cookies or use similar technologies as permitted by applicable law and the consent choices available to the visitor.
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used for site functionality, security, analytics, measurement, advertising, consent management, and fraud prevention. Some cookies are set by AcreageReady and others may be set by service providers such as Google.
Where required, AcreageReady will provide consent choices before using non-essential cookies or processing personal information for personalized advertising. Visitors can also use browser settings to limit or delete cookies, although doing so may affect some site features.
European, United Kingdom, and Swiss visitors
When required for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, AcreageReady intends to use a Google-certified consent management platform to present applicable choices regarding cookies, advertising, and personal-data processing. Consent choices presented through that system will control supported advertising and related technologies as required.
How we use information
We may use information collected through AcreageReady to:
- Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the website.
- Respond to questions, corrections, and support requests.
- Review and manage contractor-directory submissions.
- Process quote requests and connect consenting users with potentially relevant contractors.
- Measure site traffic, content performance, and feature usage.
- Detect spam, fraud, abuse, security problems, and technical issues.
- Support advertising, measurement, and site monetization where enabled.

How information may be shared
We may share information with service providers that help operate the website, host data, provide analytics, support advertising, process communications, or maintain site security. We may also share quote-request information with contractors when the person submitting the request has consented to that sharing.
We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to valid legal requests, protect AcreageReady or its users, investigate fraud or abuse, or protect the security of the service.
Data retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including operating the directory, managing quote requests, maintaining business records, resolving disputes, preventing abuse, and meeting legal or operational requirements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and why it was collected.
Data security
AcreageReady uses reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. No Internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Your privacy choices
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information that you submitted to AcreageReady, subject to applicable legal and operational requirements. You may also ask questions about how your information has been used or shared.
To make a privacy request, email hello@acreageready.com. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.
Children's privacy
AcreageReady is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children under 13 through the site.
Third-party websites
AcreageReady may link to contractor websites, government resources, manufacturers, service providers, and other third-party sites. Those websites operate under their own privacy practices, and this policy does not control how third parties collect or use information on their own services.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy as AcreageReady adds features, advertising providers, service providers, or new legal and operational requirements. The date at the top of this page will be updated when material changes are published.
