Privacy Policy

Last updated October 30, 2026

Foam Genius Network is run by Plant Powered Marketing LLC, doing business as Spray Foam Genius Marketing. This page explains what we collect, why, who sees it, and your choices. Version 2026-10-30.

What we collect

Account details: your name, email address, mobile phone number, and password (stored scrambled, never in plain text).
Profile details: what you add to your worker profile or company page, such as positions, experience, equipment, certifications, availability, pay, location, photos, and your privacy settings.
Certification proof: documents you upload. These are private. Only you and our team can open them.
Company details: business phone and email, hiring contact, and the private hiring plans you choose to share with us.
Messages and connections: conversations, connection requests, applications, reports, and blocks.
Reviews: ratings and reviews you write or receive, and replies. Workers who review a company are shown by position, not name. Detailed category scores are only seen by our team.
How you found us: the link or campaign that brought you (UTM tags), the outside page that sent you, and the first page you visited.
Activity on the site: things like searches, profile and post views, requests, and applications, so we can see whether the network works and improve it.
Terms acceptance: when you create an account, the date and the versions of the Terms of Use and this policy you agreed to.

We do not ask for Social Security numbers, Social Insurance Numbers, banking information, tax documents, passport numbers, driver's license details, or credit card numbers. Please don't put them in your profile, documents, or messages. If we add payments later, we will use an established payment processor and will not store card numbers ourselves.

Cookies

All our cookies are first-party: set by Foam Genius Network and read only by us. None are shared with ad networks.

Sign-in cookie: keeps you logged in, for up to 30 days.
Two-step login: if you use two-step login, a cookie remembers that you entered your password while you enter your code (10 minutes). If you tick "Don't ask again on this device", another cookie skips the code on that device for 30 days.
fgn_src: remembers how you arrived (as above) and a random visitor number, for up to 90 days.
fgn_lang: remembers the language you picked (English or Spanish), for up to 1 year.
fgn_ref: if you open someone's invite link, remembers who invited you, so their link gets credit when you join (they see how many people joined, not who). Up to 90 days.
fgn_claim: if you start claiming a company listing before logging in, remembers which listing, until you close your browser.
fgn_review_invite: if you open a review invitation before you have an account, remembers it so you can finish after you sign up. Up to 30 days.

We do not use advertising or tracking cookies from other companies.

Browser signals

We honor Global Privacy Control signals as a request to opt out of any sale or sharing of personal information, although we don't sell or share personal information for advertising. We don't currently respond differently to "Do Not Track" signals, because there is no common standard for them.

Who sees what

Your phone number and email are never shown on your profile, company page, or posts.
Worker profiles are private. Only verified insulation companies (a company page our team approved, run by someone who confirmed their email and phone) and our team can see them. Visitors, search engines, and other workers can't. You choose whether companies see your name or see you as Confidential.
When you apply to a post, say you're interested, or accept a connection, that company can see your full profile, including your name, even if your profile is Confidential.
Pay follows your pay setting: shown to companies that can see your profile, or kept private.
Private hiring plans and admin notes are never shown to other users.

Spray Foam Genius Marketing

Foam Genius Network is run by Spray Foam Genius Marketing, a marketing agency for spray foam and insulation contractors. When a company creates or updates its company page, we may use the company's business details (business name, contact name, business email and phone, location, size, and services) to contact the company about Spray Foam Genius Marketing's services where permitted by law. For companies located in Canada, we only do this if the company gives us permission.

You can opt out of these marketing contacts at any time by clicking unsubscribe in any marketing email, replying STOP to any marketing text, or submitting a request through our contact form. Opting out won't affect your use of Foam Genius Network.

We keep these company contacts in GoHighLevel, the customer relationship system Spray Foam Genius Marketing uses, and send these marketing emails from it, and texts to business contacts who ask for them. We use Smartlead, an email outreach service, with Google Workspace mailboxes, to email businesses in our company directory to ask them to confirm their free listing (businesses in the United States only). Every one of those emails has a link to stop them.

If you give us your contact details outside this site, for example by answering one of our Facebook ads, we keep them in GoHighLevel to send you information about Foam Genius Network. You can unsubscribe from any of those emails.

Worker profiles are never used this way.

Service providers

We use a few companies to run the site. They only use your data to provide their service to us:

Cloudflare: hosting, database, file storage, and the "are you human" check on forms.
Resend: sending email.
Twilio: sending phone verification codes, job alert texts if you turn them on, and the Genius Marketing Daily Brief texts.
GoHighLevel: Spray Foam Genius Marketing's customer relationship system, for the company contacts and emails described under "Spray Foam Genius Marketing".
Smartlead: sending the emails that ask directory businesses to confirm their listing.
Google Workspace: the mailboxes those emails are sent from.

Job posts on other sites

Open job posts are public. We publish them in a job feed that job search sites, such as Indeed, can read, and we tell Google Search when a post's page is added, changed, or removed so it shows up sooner. The feed has what the post shows (the job, the company's name, the city, and the pay). We send Google only the page's address. Neither gets contact details or anything from worker profiles.

Text messages

We use your mobile number to send verification codes. If you turn on job alert texts in Settings and tick the consent box, we also text you new posts that fit your profile.

When you opt in, we keep a record of the exact consent wording you agreed to, the number, the language, and the time. If you reply STOP or turn the texts off, we record that and stop sending them. We keep these consent records after an account is deleted, as proof of your choice.

If you ask us to text you about your company's listing, on a call or by ticking the box on your listing page, we use that number to send the link you asked for and follow-ups about your listing. These texts are sent through GoHighLevel. We keep a record of how and when you asked, and of any STOP reply, as proof of your choice.

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Genius Marketing Daily Brief texts

Plant Powered Marketing LLC, doing business as Genius Marketing, sends one automated text each weekday morning to its owner's own mobile phone. The text summarizes that day's calendar appointments and business emails that need attention. These texts go only to the owner. They are not sent to customers or the public, and we do not collect anyone else's mobile number for this program. We use the number only to send these texts and to handle STOP and HELP replies. We keep a record of the opt-in and any opt-out.

Message frequency: 1 message per weekday. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. Questions: info@geniusmarketingco.com or (360) 519-5100.

How we use it

Run the network: show profiles and posts, match people, deliver messages and emails.
Keep it safe: verify accounts, review profiles, handle reports, stop spam and fraud.
Understand and improve it: count activity and where people come from.

We do not sell your personal information.

Your choices

Change your profile, privacy level, pay visibility, and email alerts at any time.
Hide your profile, or delete your account in Settings. Deleting removes your name, contact details, photos, documents, profile, and posts. People you messaged keep the conversation, but you show as "Deleted account". We keep activity counts without your name.
Opt out of marketing emails using the unsubscribe link in any marketing email.

Your privacy rights and requests

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including rights to request access, correction, deletion, or information about how your personal information is used.

Data retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate Foam Genius Network, provide requested services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud and abuse, maintain security, and enforce our agreements.

Certification documents are deleted from our file storage as soon as you remove them or delete your account.
Messages you sent remain visible to the people you sent them to, shown as "Deleted account."
Backups of our database are overwritten on a rolling basis within 30 days.

When an account is deleted, certain information may remain temporarily in backups, security records, fraud-prevention records, legal records, or other systems where retention is reasonably necessary. Some activity may remain in anonymized or de-identified form after account deletion.

International data processing

Foam Genius Network is operated from the United States.

If you access Foam Genius Network from Canada or another jurisdiction, your information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in the United States or other countries where Foam Genius Network or its service providers operate. Information processed in another country may be subject to the laws and lawful access requirements of that jurisdiction.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information.

These safeguards may include encrypted connections, password hashing, access controls, restricted document storage, and measures designed to limit unauthorized access. However, no online service, transmission method, or electronic storage system can guarantee absolute security.

You are responsible for protecting your password and account credentials.

If a security incident creates a risk of serious harm to you, we will notify you and any regulators as required by applicable law.
