1 Tree Emergency Privacy Policy: Protecting Your Personal Data
Last Updated: September 30, 2026
1 Tree Emergency ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect
- Personal Information: Name, email, phone number, address, insurance details, service needs.
- Usage Information: IP address, browser type, access times, and pages viewed.
- Location Information: If you permit location access when submitting a service request. For crew members using our mobile app, the device's precise location while the app is open, as described in Mobile Applications below.
- Mobile Device Information: For users of our mobile applications, we may collect device identifiers, operating system information, and app usage statistics.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To provide and manage our Services.
- To connect homeowners with contractors and insurance companies.
- To communicate with you about jobs, updates, and support.
- To improve the platform and customer experience.
- For legal and compliance purposes.
- To optimize job assignments and track work progress for arborists using our mobile applications.
3. Information Sharing
We may share your information with:
- Contractors to fulfill your service requests.
- Insurance companies for claims-related services.
- Service providers who assist in operating our platform.
- Authorities if required by law or to protect rights and safety.
We do not sell your personal information.
4. Mobile Applications
Our iOS and Android app is used by our crews and contractors to receive and complete jobs. Accounts are created by our office; the app has no public sign-up. The app collects and processes:
- Account information: name, email address and user ID, to sign you in and show the jobs assigned to you.
- Precise location, only while the app is open: to confirm you are on site when you clock in and out of a job and to give directions. It is shared with our office. It is not collected in the background and is not used for advertising.
- Photos and videos you take or choose for a job (videos include their sound), with the time and place they were taken, as the record of the work.
- Job details you enter: notes, site information, tree records, reported issues and hours worked. Notes may be translated using a translation service provider.
- A device notification token, to send you job notifications.
This information is used only to run and document the work. It is not used for tracking across other companies' apps or websites, and it is not sold. You can manage camera, photo, location and notification permissions in your device settings.
Deleting your app account: because our office creates crew accounts, it also deletes them. In the app, open Account and choose Request account deletion, or email info@1treeemergency.com. We will delete your account and the personal information associated with it, except records we must keep for legal, insurance or job-documentation purposes.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience, understand usage, and improve the platform. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
6. Data Security
We implement reasonable safeguards to protect your information, but no system can guarantee 100% security.
