Deck Cost Guide

Privacy Notice

Reviewed

Last updated: September 12, 2026

This notice explains what information Deck Cost Guide collects, why we use it, and the choices available when you use this website or request estimates.

Who we are

Deck Cost Guide publishes U.S.-focused deck pricing, planning and maintenance information. Questions about this notice can be sent through our contact page.

Information we collect

  • Information you submit: your name, email address, phone number, ZIP code, requested service and optional project details when you request estimates.
  • Consent records: the disclosure shown when you submit an estimate request, your affirmative consent, submission time and a TrustedForm certificate URL when that service is enabled.
  • Technical information: IP address, browser and device information, pages visited, referring pages, security events and cookie choices collected through ordinary hosting, security, analytics and consent tools.

Submitting the calculator alone does not send your contact details to contractors. If you separately complete the estimate-request form, check its required consent box and submit it, Deck Cost Guide may send the information listed above to Networx and participating home-improvement professionals so they can respond to your request.

Estimate-request disclosure: By submitting, you agree to our Terms of Use, and Networx, its partners and service professionals may call, text, or email me to confirm, schedule, and follow-up about my home improvement project, or provide other offers, using automated technology, at the phone number and email I provided. Consent is not a condition of purchase.

Message and data rates may apply. You may withdraw consent for future communications by telling the caller or sender, using any provided opt-out method, or contacting us. Withdrawing consent does not affect communications or processing that occurred before withdrawal.

How we use information

  • Provide requested cost information and operate the website.
  • Process an estimate request you expressly choose to submit.
  • Maintain security, prevent fraud and diagnose technical problems.
  • Measure and improve content, site performance and advertising, subject to available consent choices.
  • Meet legal, regulatory and contractual obligations.

Who receives information

We may disclose information to service providers that host, secure, measure or maintain the website; to Networx and participating professionals when you submit an estimate request with consent; to advertising and consent-management providers where enabled; and to authorities or other parties when reasonably required by law, security or the protection of legal rights.

Contractors and other recipients may have their own privacy practices. Review the disclosure beside the form before submitting and ask any responding professional how they will use your information.

Cookies advertising and consent choices

The site may use necessary cookies for security and core operation. Analytics and advertising services may use cookies or similar technologies where enabled and permitted by your consent choices. You can use the site’s privacy controls to review or change available choices and can also control cookies through your browser. Blocking some technologies may affect site features.

Retention and security

We retain information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described above, dispute prevention, security, accounting and legal obligations. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Your privacy choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction or deletion of certain personal information, or to opt out of certain sharing, targeted advertising or communications. Submit a request through our contact page. We may need to verify the request before acting, and legal exceptions may apply.

Children

Deck Cost Guide is intended for adults planning home-improvement projects and is not directed to children under 13. Do not submit a child’s personal information through the estimate form.

Changes to this notice

We may update this notice as the website, service providers or legal requirements change. The date at the top identifies the latest revision.
