PRIVACY POLICY

How Empire State Mechanical handles the information you share with us through this website and when you request service.

Last updated: August 22, 2026

OVERVIEW

Empire State Mechanical Heating & Air Conditioning ("Empire State Mechanical", "we", "us") provides HVAC services across Staten Island, Brooklyn, and New Jersey. This policy explains what information we collect through this website, why we collect it, and what we do with it. It applies to this website and to the service requests that come through it.

The short version: we collect what we need to answer you and do the work, we do not sell it, and we do not run advertising trackers on this site.

INFORMATION YOU GIVE US

When you contact us for a quote, book a service call, or reach out by phone or email, you may share:

  • Your name, phone number, and email address
  • The service address and details about the property
  • Information about your equipment and the problem you are having
  • Appointment preferences, service history, and any notes you send us

You choose what to send. If you leave something out, we may not be able to schedule the work or price it accurately.

INFORMATION COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY

Like nearly all websites, this site is served by a hosting provider that keeps standard server logs. Those logs typically record the IP address, browser type, referring page, and the date and time of each request. They are used for security and to keep the site running.

This website does not set cookies of its own, and it does not run analytics, advertising, or visitor-tracking scripts.

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES THIS SITE USES

Two outside services are contacted by your browser when a page loads. Neither one receives your name, phone number, or any information you type:

  • Google Fonts — the site loads its typefaces from Google's font servers. To deliver the files, Google receives your IP address and basic browser information. Google's handling of that data is governed by its own privacy policy.
  • Open-Meteo — the live temperature and air-quality readings shown on our home page come from the Open-Meteo public weather API. The request uses fixed coordinates for Staten Island, New York; your location is never requested, detected, or sent.

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

  • To respond to quote requests and questions
  • To schedule, perform, and follow up on service, installation, and maintenance work
  • To prepare estimates, invoices, warranty records, and service history
  • To contact you about an appointment, a part on order, or work already performed
  • To meet legal, tax, licensing, and insurance obligations

If we ever want to send you maintenance reminders or promotions, we will ask first, and every message will include a way to stop receiving them.

HOW WE SHARE INFORMATION

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only in these situations:

  • Service providers — companies that help us operate, such as our web host, scheduling and invoicing software, and payment processors. They may use the information only to perform that work for us.
  • Manufacturers and suppliers — when a warranty claim, rebate, or parts order requires it.
  • Legal reasons — when we are required to by law, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our customers, our team, or the public.
  • Business transfer — if the business is sold or merged, customer records may transfer as part of that transaction.

HOW LONG WE KEEP IT

We keep service and customer records for as long as we have a working relationship with you, and afterward for as long as we need them for warranty coverage, tax and accounting rules, and other legal requirements. Inquiries that never become jobs are kept for a much shorter period.

YOUR CHOICES

  • Ask us what customer information we hold about you
  • Ask us to correct anything that is wrong or out of date
  • Ask us to delete information we are not required to keep
  • Tell us to stop contacting you, or to contact you only one way

Use the phone number or email address below and we will handle it. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state or federal law; we honor those where they apply.

SECURITY

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect the information we hold, and we limit access to the people who need it to do their jobs. No website or business system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security — but if something goes wrong with data we hold, we will tell you as the law requires.

CHILDREN

This site is intended for adults arranging services for a home or business. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.

LINKS TO OTHER SITES

This site may link to manufacturers, financing partners, or other outside pages. We do not control those sites, and this policy does not cover them. Read their policies before sharing information with them.

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this policy as our practices or the law change. The revision date at the top of the page always reflects the current version, and material changes will be posted here.
