This Privacy Policy explains how Columbia Water Filtration handles information when you visit this website or contact us about water testing, installation or service in Columbia, Howard County and the surrounding area of Maryland. By using this site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information We Collect
When you call us to schedule a water test, installation or service visit, we may collect your name, phone number, service address, email address if you choose to share it, and details about your water, such as whether you are on public water or a private well and what problems you are noticing.
During a visit, we may record water test readings, notes about your plumbing and existing equipment, and photos of the installation area to plan and document the work.
When you browse this website, basic technical information may be collected automatically, such as your browser type, device type, pages viewed and the general location derived from your IP address.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information you provide to schedule and confirm appointments, perform water tests, prepare written recommendations and prices, complete installations and repairs, and follow up on maintenance such as filter changes.
We may also use it to answer your questions, send appointment reminders, keep records of work performed and improve our services and website.

How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with service providers who help us operate our business, such as scheduling, phone and website hosting providers, and with certified laboratories when you request lab testing of a water sample.

We take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with us from loss, misuse and unauthorized access. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
