Privacy Policy
Last updated July 27, 2026
Tom's Heating & Air Conditioning ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through our website at tomsheatandair.com and in the course of providing residential and light-commercial heating, cooling, indoor air quality, and related HVAC services across Van Buren, Fort Smith, and the Arkansas River Valley in Arkansas (and bordering Oklahoma communities we serve), how we use and share that information, and the choices and rights you have. By using our website or services, you agree to this Policy. Our contractor licenses include AR HVAC1506270; OK HVAC00120691.
This Policy is provided for general information and is not legal advice. Final wording should be reviewed by counsel for your specific circumstances before relying on it as a definitive legal position.
Information We Collect
- Information you provide: name, phone number, email, service address, and details of your service request when you contact us, request a quote, schedule service, join a maintenance plan, apply for a job, or inquire about financing.
- Communications: the content of calls, texts, emails, and form messages. Phone calls to or from us may be recorded or monitored for quality, training, and scheduling purposes where permitted by law.
- Automatic / technical data: IP address, device and browser type, pages viewed, referring URLs, and similar analytics data collected via cookies and similar technologies when you allow analytics/advertising storage.
- Tools actually in use on this site: Google Tag Manager (container GTM-WTZNS3X) which may load Google Analytics 4 and advertising tags according to your consent choices; Google reCAPTCHA on lead and application forms (spam protection); and Payzer's hosted payment portal for invoice payments (card data is entered on Payzer, not on our pages). We do not operate an on-site chatbot at this time.
How We Use Your Information
- To respond to inquiries and to schedule, provide, and follow up on HVAC services
- To send appointment confirmations, service updates, estimates, invoices, and — only with separate SMS opt-in — text updates about your request
- To process financing inquiries through our third-party financing partners
- To operate, secure, analyze, and improve our website and services
- To measure marketing performance (when analytics/ads storage is allowed)
- To comply with legal obligations and enforce our agreements
Text Messaging (SMS) & Mobile Terms
If you opt in to text messages from Tom's Heating & Air Conditioning on a form, you consent to receive service-related messages (and, where the form wording says so, promotional messages) at the number you provide. Consent is collected separately from other consents, is not pre-checked, and is not a condition of purchase. Message frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to unsubscribe at any time and HELP for help. We do not sell or share your mobile opt-in or phone number with third parties for their own marketing. See also Your Privacy Choices.
Cookies, Analytics & Consent Mode
We use necessary cookies to make the site work. Analytics and advertising cookies (loaded through Google Tag Manager) are controlled by Google Consent Mode v2. Visitors in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland start with analytics and ads storage denied until they accept; visitors elsewhere (including the United States) start with those signals allowed under a US-style opt-out model and can decline at any time via our cookie banner or by choosing "Cookie preferences" in the footer. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as a do-not-sell/share preference for advertising storage. You can also use Google's browser add-on and industry opt-out tools (optout.aboutads.info).
How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information for money. We may share information with trusted service providers who act on our behalf — website hosting and build partners (including CI Web Group / Hydra platform services), Google (Tag Manager, Analytics, reCAPTCHA), Payzer (payment processing), financing partners when you apply, and as required by law or to protect our rights. Some analytics or advertising activity may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" under certain state privacy laws; you may opt out as described in Your Privacy Choices.
Your Privacy Choices
Your California Privacy Rights — Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) gives you specific rights regarding your personal information.
Categories of personal information we may collect (in the last 12 months), naming tools actually in use on this site:
- Identifiers and contact data (name, email, phone, service address) you submit on lead or careers forms
- Internet / electronic activity via Google Tag Manager / Google Analytics 4 (pages viewed, device/browser signals) when analytics storage is allowed
- Advertising identifiers and related signals via Google advertising tags loaded through GTM when ad storage is allowed
- Inferences drawn from service-request content (e.g., type of HVAC issue) to fulfill your request
- Payment-related identifiers processed by Payzer when you pay an invoice (we do not store full card numbers on our servers)
Sale / sharing disclosure: We do not sell personal information for monetary consideration. We may "share" personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising through Google advertising tags when ad storage is allowed. You have the right to opt out of that sale/sharing.
Your rights: know/access, delete, correct, opt out of sale/sharing, limit use of sensitive personal information (where applicable), and non-discrimination for exercising these rights.
How to opt out:
- Use the on-site cookie banner (Accept / Decline) or reopen it via Cookie preferences in the footer
- Enable Global Privacy Control (GPC) in a supporting browser — we treat a GPC signal as a do-not-sell/share request for advertising storage
- Email or call us using the contact details below and ask us to opt you out of sale/sharing

Last updated for this section: July 27, 2026. This site is operated for a United States business address; privacy rights below follow U.S. state frameworks (including California CPRA) only.
Payment Security
Online invoice payments are processed on Payzer's hosted checkout (or another processor's hosted page/redirect we link to). We do not collect, store, or process raw payment card numbers on tomsheatandair.com pages. Card data is handled by the payment processor under their PCI DSS responsibilities. Prefer cash, check, or financing? Ask when your technician is on site or call the office.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide services, maintain business and tax records, resolve disputes, and comply with legal obligations, after which we delete or de-identify it. Retention periods vary by record type (for example, service and invoice records are typically kept longer than one-off marketing inquiries).
Children's Privacy (COPPA)
Our website and services are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your data.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. Changes are effective when posted, and the "Last updated" date above reflects the latest revision.
