What we collect

When you book a sqout service, we collect: your name and email address; the property addresses you provide for documentation; your payment information (processed by Stripe — sqout never stores card numbers); and any notes or preferences you share about what to observe.

When you visit sqout.co, standard web analytics may collect your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time on site. We use this to understand traffic patterns, not to identify individuals.

How we use your information

Aggregate, anonymized building-level data from Scout visits (scores, condition patterns) may be retained in the sqout Hive database to power Vault Report products. This data contains no personally identifiable information.
