Privacy Policy

Effective date: February 06, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Tip Top Air (“Tip Top Air,” “we,” “us”) collects, uses, and shares personal information when you visit our website or use our claim-support tools—especially if you were referred to us by a home warranty provider.

What this policy covers

This policy applies to personal information we collect through:

  • Our website (including forms and claim-status lookup)
  • Phone, email, and text communications related to scheduling and service
  • Information we receive from home warranty providers when you are assigned to us

It does not cover websites or services you don’t own (for example, your home warranty provider’s portal). Their privacy practices are described in their own policy.

Personal information we collect

We collect information that helps us identify your claim, schedule service, and keep you updated. Under California law, businesses must explain what they collect and why.

Information you provide directly

Depending on what you do on the site or how you contact us, we may collect:

  • Contact information: name, phone number, email
  • Service location: address and ZIP code
  • Claim details: claim number / work order number, warranty provider name
  • Service details: issue description, appointment preferences, photos you choose to share
  • Messages: information you include in a contact form, email, or phone call

Information we receive from your home warranty provider

If your warranty provider assigns Tip Top Air, they may send us information such as:

  • Your name and contact details
  • The service address
  • Claim/work order number and dispatch details
  • Plan-related notes needed to perform the service

Information collected automatically (website usage)

When you use the site, we (or our service providers) may automatically collect:

  • Device and browser information
  • IP address (often used for security and basic diagnostics)
  • Pages viewed and actions taken on the site
  • Approximate location inferred from IP (city/region level)

How we use personal information

We use personal information to:

  • Look up and display claim status (using the information you enter)
  • Schedule and provide HVAC service (diagnosis, repairs, follow-ups)
  • Communicate clearly about appointments, authorizations, parts timing, and next steps
  • Improve reliability and security of our website and customer support
  • Meet legal and operational requirements (recordkeeping, invoicing, dispute handling)

Notice at collection: When you submit a form or use the status tool, we collect the information needed to provide that service and communicate with you. California law requires this notice “at or before” collection.

How we share personal information

We share personal information only as needed to provide service and keep your claim moving.

With your home warranty provider

We may share updates needed to complete your claim (for example, diagnosis results, required parts, repair status, and scheduling outcomes).

With service providers who help us run our business

We may share information with vendors that support operations, such as:

  • Scheduling and dispatch systems
  • Customer support tools (phone/SMS/email)
  • Website hosting and security services
  • Analytics tools (if enabled)

These companies act as service providers/contractors and are expected to use information only to perform services for us under contract.

For legal or safety reasons

We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, court order, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of our customers, our team, or the public.

Cookies and analytics

Cookies are small files stored by your browser. We may use:

  • Essential cookies for site functions and security
  • Analytics cookies (if enabled) to understand site performance and improve clarity

Your choices: You can usually manage cookies through your browser settings. If we offer a cookie banner or preference tool, you can use it to adjust non-essential cookies.

Do we “sell” or “share” personal information?

We do not sell personal information. Sometimes, we do share personal information for cross-partner communication to enhance our customer experience.

If that ever changes, we will update this policy and provide required opt-out options.

How long we keep information

We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary to:

  • complete service and claim support,
  • maintain business records (including warranty-related documentation),
  • meet legal, tax, accounting, or dispute-resolution requirements.

Retention periods can vary depending on the type of information and the service context.

How we protect information

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to prevent unauthorized access and misuse. California law specifically requires reasonable security practices appropriate to the information involved.

Your privacy rights (California)

If you are a California resident, you may have rights to:

  • Know/access what personal information we collect and how we use it
  • Request deletion of personal information (with certain exceptions)
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Opt out of sale/sharing (we do not sell/share for cross-context ads, as stated above)
  • Limit use/disclosure of sensitive personal information (we do not intentionally collect sensitive PI for website claim support)
  • Non-discrimination for exercising privacy rights

California’s privacy framework and required privacy policy disclosures are described by the California Attorney General and CPPA guidance.

How to submit a request

You can submit a request by:

To protect you, we may need to verify your identity (for example, by matching information you provide to what we already have about the claim).

Authorized agents

If you use an authorized agent, we may request proof of authorization and still verify your identity as permitted by law.

Other U.S. state privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have similar rights to access, delete, or correct your personal information. You can use the contact methods above to request help.

Children’s privacy

This website is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page and revise the “Effective date” above.
