Privacy Policy: How Webster Kitchen and Bath Handles Your Information in Reading, PA
A kitchen and bath studio in Berks County, Pennsylvania.
What This Privacy Policy Covers
Reading homeowners have enough to worry about when planning a remodel without wondering what happens to their personal information. Webster Kitchen and Bath keeps that part simple. This page lays out exactly how we collect, store, and use your data, written in plain language that actually makes sense.
This policy covers everything: contact forms, quote requests, in-home estimates, social media messages, and anything sent through our Google Business Profile. Every interaction matters to us.
Reading homeowners share real personal detail during a remodel estimate. Your property address in Berkshire Heights, the layout of your pre-1950s row home near downtown, your project budget. That trust is sacred. This page tells you exactly what we do with that information.
What Information We Collect
We collect the basics. Your name, phone number, email address, home address. This comes through our contact form, email, or messages sent via Google Business Profile, Facebook, or Instagram.
Your name, phone number, email address, and home address collected through contact forms, email, or social media messages.
Room measurements, photos of your existing kitchen or bathroom, and notes on plumbing and electrical access points collected during in-home estimates.
Deposits and final payments processed through our billing system. We do not store full card numbers after a transaction is complete.
When we come out for an in-home estimate, we collect more detailed project information. For older homes in the historic districts near the Reading Area Firefighters Museum or neighborhoods close to Reading Area Community College, we note permit history and document original fixtures and architectural details you share with us.
That project documentation gets stored. Homeowners in those older Reading neighborhoods often send us photos of original tilework, cast iron fixtures, and period cabinetry. We keep that information to plan your project accurately.
Why We Collect Your Information
Every piece of information we collect has a specific job. Contact details let us schedule your estimate and answer questions. Nothing more.
When we take measurements and photos inside your place, that data goes straight to planning your remodel. We use it to order the right materials and make sure everything fits before we ever start demoing a tile or pulling a cabinet. Accurate measurements save you money and keep your project on schedule.
Payment details get processed for invoices only. No card numbers retained.
If you are dealing with a remodel project in Reading and want to work with a contractor who handles your information with the same care they bring to the job site, we can help.
How We Store and Protect Your Information
A lot of Reading homes are pre-1950s row houses and early 20th century properties. When we estimate, we see floor plans, older plumbing layouts, electrical details, and structural conditions specific to your property. Sensitive information deserves careful handling.
Project files, including photos, measurements, and permit notes, are stored in password-protected systems. Only staff actively working on your project can access your file.
Payment information is handled through a third-party payment processor. We do not store your card or banking details on our internal systems.
Signed contracts and project authorizations are kept in a secured location at our Reading office. They are not left out on desks or stored in unsecured areas.

Happy to walk you through it.
Do We Share Your Information With Third Parties?
We use a small number of third-party tools to run the business: scheduling software, email platforms, payment processing. When you book an appointment or pay an invoice, those tools may receive your name, contact information, and appointment details. That is the extent of what they see.
We do not share your home address, project photos, or estimate details with outside vendors unless required to complete your project. One exception exists: a supplier needing a delivery address for materials. That is practical necessity, not a data-sharing arrangement.
Homeowners in Exeter Township and Berkshire Heights who schedule through our online tools or reach out through Google Business Profile or social media should know this: those platforms operate under their own privacy policies. Once you submit a message through Google or Facebook, that platform handles the transmission. We receive your message and respond, but we do not control how those platforms process data on their end.
We keep our third-party list short on purpose. Only what we need to schedule your project, communicate, and process payment. Have questions about any specific tool?
Project Photos and Testimonials: What We Do and Do Not Post
We photograph completed projects. These photos may appear on our website, social media pages, or in portfolios. We are proud of the work we do in homes across Reading, from older rowhomes in Pendora Park to split-levels in Whitfield, and we want to show it.
Before we post any photo that shows identifiable features of your property, we will ask for your permission. If you say no, we do not post it. Simple as that.
If a photo of your project is already on our website or social media and you want it taken down, contact us. We will remove it promptly, no questions asked.
We will never post a review or quote with your name attached without your direct approval first.
How Long We Keep Your Records
When we finish a project at your property, we keep the records for seven years after completion. That includes contracts, measurements, permits, and project photos. Pennsylvania contractors are legally required to hold these records for warranty and permit documentation purposes.
You can ask us to delete your records anytime. We will explain what we can and cannot remove based on legal requirements. Want to make that request? See the section below on your deletion rights. Or call us directly.
Your Rights: How to Access, Correct, or Delete Your Data
You have the right to know what personal information we have on file. That covers everything from Google messages to Facebook inquiries to phone calls to contact forms. Reading-area homeowners who reached us through multiple channels can submit one single request to see it all at once.
Request a full copy of all personal information we have on file for you, regardless of how you originally contacted us.
Ask us to fix any information that is wrong: an old address, a misspelled name, an outdated phone number. Just let us know and we will fix it.
Request deletion of your information. The only exception is when we are legally required to keep certain records, such as a signed contract still within its warranty period.
Policy Updates
We update this policy when our tools, practices, or legal requirements change. The date at the top always shows the last revision. No individual notices are sent out. Check back for the latest version.
If you use our contact form or scheduling tools after we post an update, that counts as acceptance of the revised policy. Questions about a recent change?
