Overview
Compare Field Service Software is an independent software comparison directory for contractors, operators, and service-business owners researching field-service management tools. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you visit the site.
The site is primarily informational. You can read comparisons, buyer guides, pricing breakdowns, and software profiles without creating an account. If you contact us, click an outbound vendor link, subscribe to updates, or use a tool on the site, we may process additional information needed to operate that feature.
Data we collect
We may collect basic usage data such as page views, referral URLs, browser and device information, approximate location, pages visited, search queries used on the site, and interactions with outbound software links. This helps us understand which comparisons are useful and which pages need clearer information.
If you contact us, request a correction, join an email list, or submit information through a form, we collect the information you choose to provide. That may include your name, email address, company, website, trade, message text, and any supporting details you send.
If you click an affiliate or referral link, the vendor or affiliate network may collect information needed to attribute that click or signup. We do not receive full payment details from vendors, and we do not control third-party vendor websites once you leave our site.
How we use data
We use data to operate the site, improve page quality, measure which topics attract buyer interest, debug performance issues, prevent abuse, respond to messages, and maintain accurate software comparisons.
We may also use aggregated analytics to decide which guides to update first, which product pages need more detail, and whether outbound links are working correctly. Affiliate click data may be used for attribution, commission reporting, and disclosure compliance.
We do not sell personal information. We do not use visitor data to make automated eligibility decisions about software products, financing, employment, insurance, or other regulated matters.
Affiliate links
Some outbound links may be affiliate or referral links. If you click one and later sign up, request a demo, start a trial, or purchase through the vendor, we may earn a commission.
Affiliate relationships do not control our rankings. Editorial criteria such as trade fit, pricing transparency, implementation effort, core features, integrations, trial availability, and software fit are evaluated separately from monetization.
When a link is sponsored, affiliate-based, or referral-based, we aim to disclose that relationship clearly in the relevant page area, footer, or site disclosure language.
Your choices
You can choose not to submit forms or contact details. You can also block cookies in your browser, use private browsing tools, or avoid clicking outbound affiliate links if you do not want a vendor or affiliate network to record referral attribution.
If you have provided personal information directly to us, you can request access, correction, or deletion by contacting us. If you subscribed to email updates, you can unsubscribe through the unsubscribe link in the email or by contacting us directly.
Requests involving information held by third-party vendors or affiliate networks should be sent to those third parties because they control their own websites, analytics, forms, and customer systems.
Contact
Email privacy requests to support@tinkerclaw.com. Please include enough detail for us to understand your request, such as the email address you used, the page involved, or the type of data you are asking about.
If you are a software vendor and want a factual correction, include the page URL, the claim you believe is outdated or incorrect, and an official source that verifies the correction.
