Good Questions. Plain Answers.

Email us your website address. We load your homepage once in a new, empty browser, scroll down it, wait and click nothing. We note every outside company it contacts, then read your privacy policy and compare the two.

You get one page back by email. There is nothing to install and no form to fill in.

The Pigeon Check is free. Every step after it is quoted in writing before any work begins, based on your site and what the Check found.

If you go on to a Pigeon Cleanup, your Report fee is credited toward it.

No. The Check is free and there is nothing to sign. If it raises questions you want answered, we can talk about a Pigeon Report. If not, the Check is yours to keep.

When you ask for a Pigeon Check, we'll tell you when to expect it. A Pigeon Report arrives within 3 business days of agreeing which pages to check, followed by a 30-minute walkthrough call.

A Cleanup's schedule depends on the fixes you choose, and your quote includes it.

For the Check and the Report, none. We look at your public pages the way a visitor's browser does. The Report also checks your domain's public email settings.

For a Cleanup, we agree in writing what access the work needs: usually your website's admin, and sometimes your domain's DNS settings. A separate account that you can remove afterward works best.

Before a Cleanup starts, we agree which features must keep working, such as forms, booking and editing, and make sure there is a way back. We test those features after the changes, and the re-check shows what changed. If a fix would cost you a feature, we tell you before making it.

Yes. The fix list is written so anyone who looks after your site can follow it. Choose a Pigeon Cleanup if you'd rather we made the changes and checked them again.

Then your Check says so plainly, along with what it covered: one visit to one page. The Check is free either way. Other pages and later visits can differ, so if you'd like other pages looked at, a Report covers up to five.

Like our sample report: a complete example for Fern & Finch, a fictional florist, with every section a real Report has. Yours names the real companies your pages contact.

No, it's optional. It suits sites that change often, where new tools and campaigns come and go. It tells you when something changes, and fixes are quoted separately.

Yes. The Check and the Report work on most websites, whatever they're built with, because they look at what your pages do in a browser. If a site shows a visitor check to automated browsers, we say so and report nothing from it. Most fixes happen inside the site you already have, including WordPress.

A rebuild only comes up when the platform itself keeps causing the problem, and then you get the reason in writing first.

Only the site's owner, or someone the owner has asked to look after the site. Write from an address at your website's domain, or tell us how you're connected to the site. We send the Check to one email address and never publish it.

No. A Pigeon Check goes only to the site's owner, or to someone the owner has asked to look after the site. We don't look into people or businesses for anyone.

No. We record what your website does: which companies it contacts, when, and whether your policies name them. That record is useful to a lawyer, but we are not lawyers, and we don't write privacy policies.

No. We look at what your website loads and shows in public, the way a visitor's browser sees it. We don't test passwords, look for weaknesses or try to get in.

No, and nobody can honestly promise that. We can show what your website does, make the changes you choose, and check again to show what changed.

No. We work on your website and the public information you control, such as old pages, files and email settings. Removing personal information from data broker sites is a different kind of service.
