SMS / Text Messaging Privacy
If you provide your mobile telephone number and separately consent to receive SMS or other text messages from Gloz, we may use your number to send messages consistent with the consent you provided.
Depending on the messaging program you choose, messages may include appointment confirmations, technician arrival or status updates, account notifications, verification messages, customer-support communications, and, where you separately consent, promotional messages.
Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. You may opt out of a recurring Gloz SMS program at any time by replying STOP. You may reply HELP for assistance.
Your decision to consent to promotional SMS communications is voluntary and is not a condition of purchasing services from Gloz.
Marketing Communications
Where permitted by law, Gloz may send marketing communications to users who have provided the appropriate consent. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe mechanism included in those emails.
SMS marketing consent is handled separately from other marketing channels. Declining promotional SMS communications does not prevent you from using Gloz.
Cookies & Similar Technologies
We may use cookies, software development kits, pixels, and similar technologies to operate the Services, remember preferences, understand platform usage, maintain security, and improve our Services.
Your browser or device may provide controls for certain cookies or tracking technologies.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services, maintain business and transaction records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and protect our legitimate business interests.
Retention periods may differ depending on the type of information and applicable legal requirements.
