Privacy Policy

Effective date: March 9, 2026 · Last updated: March 9, 2026

MALCO LLC, doing business as InspectionTriage (“we,” “us,” “our”), respects your privacy. This policy describes what information we collect when you use inspectiontriage.com (the “Service”), how we use it, who we share it with, and your rights.

1. Information You Provide

  • Email address — used to associate your submission and as the customer email for Stripe Checkout
  • ZIP code or state — used to localize cost estimates to your region
  • Home inspection PDF — uploaded for AI analysis
  • Contact form messages — name (optional), email, and message body
  • Feedback submissions — text you submit through the in-app feedback button

2. Payment Information

Payments are processed entirely by Stripe. We do not receive, process, or store your credit card number or full payment details.

From Stripe, we receive and store: the checkout session ID, payment intent ID, payment status, and the timestamp of successful payment. This information is used to verify your purchase and trigger your analysis.

3. Information Collected Automatically

When you visit InspectionTriage, we may collect:

  • Cookies: lp_variant (A/B test landing-page variant, 1 year, SameSite=Lax) and it_utm (campaign attribution parameters, 90 days, SameSite=Lax)
  • Local storage: it_utm (same UTM parameters, persists until cleared)
  • UTM parameters: utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, utm_term, utm_content, and gclid when present in the URL
  • Bot protection: Cloudflare Turnstile verification token and your IP address, used solely for CAPTCHA validation
  • Server logs: standard request logs collected by our hosting provider (Vercel)

4. Analytics

When configured, we use Google Tag Manager to track page views and interaction events (such as CTA clicks, upload starts, and analysis completions). These events include your landing-page variant and UTM parameters but do not include your email, PDF content, or analysis results.

We do not use cookies for advertising purposes.

5. How We Use Your Information

  • Generate your AI-powered Decision Packet from your uploaded inspection report
  • Process your payment via Stripe
  • Deliver your results and enable PDF/CSV downloads
  • Respond to support or contact-form inquiries
  • Improve the Service using aggregate, non-identifying analytics
  • Prevent abuse through rate limiting and CAPTCHA verification

6. Third-Party Services

We do not use advertising cookies. Analytics scripts load only when a Google Tag Manager container is configured.

8. Data Retention

We retain your uploaded PDF and analysis results for a limited period to provide the Service and allow you to access your Decision Packet. We are working toward automated retention policies that will delete uploaded PDFs and result data on a rolling basis, but these automated processes are not yet active.

Uploads associated with unpaid or expired checkout sessions are cleaned up within 24 hours.

You may request deletion of your data at any time by emailing hello@inspectiontriage.com. We will process deletion requests within a reasonable timeframe.

9. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including:

  • All data transmitted over HTTPS
  • Uploaded PDFs stored in a private storage bucket (not publicly accessible)
  • CAPTCHA protection on submission endpoints (Cloudflare Turnstile)
  • Rate limiting on API endpoints
  • No personally identifiable information in analytics or error logs

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Your Rights

You may:

  • Request deletion of your uploaded PDF and analysis results
  • Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Opt out of analytics by disabling cookies or JavaScript in your browser, or by using browser privacy tools

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@inspectiontriage.com or through our Contact page.

11. California & State Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides you with additional rights, including:

  • The right to know what personal information we collect and how it is used
  • The right to request deletion of your personal information
  • The right not to be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights

We do not sell personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us using the information in Section 14.

12. Children’s Privacy
