# Privacy policy

Last updated 2026-11-03. This policy covers highpayingtrades.com.

## What we collect

When you submit the “Find Training Programs & Tuition Costs” form we store: the trade you chose, your ZIP code and the city and state it maps to, when you want to start, whether you prefer an apprenticeship or school, whether you are a veteran, your name, email address, phone number, whether you checked the optional call/text consent box (and the exact consent wording shown), the page you submitted from, the time, your IP address and your browser's user-agent string. The IP address and user-agent are kept to prevent spam and abuse.

## Security check

The form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to block automated submissions. Turnstile processes limited technical data about your browser; see Cloudflare's privacy policy.

## How we use it

To follow up about the trade programs and tuition you asked about. **We do not currently share or sell leads to any school, employer or other partner.** If that changes, partners will be named on our [partner list](https://highpayingtrades.com/partners/) before any information is shared, and only for requests submitted after the change.

## Calls and texts

We will only call or text you if you checked the consent box. Consent is not required to use the site. Reply STOP to any text to opt out, or HELP for help.

## Retention and deletion

Requests are stored in a database operated by us on Cloudflare's infrastructure. You may ask for your information to be deleted by replying STOP to a text from us or by asking us when we contact you.

## Other data

Hosting logs and Cloudflare security features may process your IP address. We do not use advertising cookies. The ZIP lookup runs from files on this site.

## Children

This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.
