Scope of the Policy
This privacy policy describes how Real Estate Broker (the agent/broker) collects, uses, and shares your personal information on this website (the agent/broker’s site).
Data will not be shared with third parties for marketing or promotional purposes.
What is Personal Information?
Personal information generally refers to any information about an identifiable individual other than the name, title, business address, or business telephone number of an employee of an organization, provided that such business contact details are used solely to contact the employee in a professional or business capacity.
Collection of Personal Information
Email messages may contain privileged or confidential information. If you are not the intended recipient of a communication, or if you receive one in error, please notify the sender and delete the message without copying or disclosing its contents.
The reason why the use of collected personal information is necessary for certain activities on our sites (e.g., when you contact us with a question or request) will be disclosed to you. For these activities, we may collect, for example, your name, street address, phone number, email address, and postal code. When you complete a loan application or request real estate products and services on an agent/broker’s site, it may be necessary for us to obtain additional information from third-party sources. We do not collect more information than required.
Technological Collection
The agent/broker’s site collects certain information about you using technological means. Therefore, it may not be readily apparent to you that this information is being collected. For example, when you visit our sites, your IP address may be collected so we can know the number of visits made by different individuals. An IP address is often associated with the location from which you access the Internet, such as your Internet service provider, your company, or your organization. This information is non-identifiable.
Use of Personal Information
We collect and use personal information to respond to your questions or comments, to send you information about our real estate or mortgage services or about our company, to promote third-party products and services to the agent/broker, to administer certain services indicated to you at the time of collection, or to refer you (with your consent) to another agent or broker for a service we cannot provide. We also use this information for statistical and marketing analysis in a non-identifiable form.
Disclaimer of Liability
Under no circumstances shall its directors, employees, brokers, or suppliers be held liable, directly or indirectly, for any direct, indirect, consequential, punitive, special, or other damages: loss of data, revenue, or profits; loss of or damage to property; or third-party claims arising from or in connection with the use of this website and its content or any other website accessible through a hyperlink.
Disclosure of Personal Information
Personal information is used by us and by others on our behalf. We will disclose it only to the following parties and for the following reasons:
- To third-party service providers with whom the agent/broker has a contractual agreement, including appropriate privacy protection standards, for the purposes of:
(i) performing functions such as data processing, database services, marketing support, or information technology services;
(ii) submitting and processing your loan requests, real estate products and services, or other requests relating to the products or services of our third-party service providers;
(iii) providing insurance coverage for the agent/broker’s product liability claims on behalf of the agent/broker;
(iv) referring you to another agent or broker. - To comply with any legal action such as an injunction, enforce our terms of use/site conditions, or protect the safety of our visitors and our site;
- As permitted or required by law.
Notice at the Time of Collection
We will inform you at the time personal information is collected if we intend to share it with a third party; we will specify the type of company with whom we may share the collected information; we will describe the information we intend to share (such as your street address or email address); and we will share the data only if you consent. We recommend that you contact such third parties directly to obtain additional information about their privacy policies.
Transfers and Business Sales
However, we may also:
- (a) disclose personal information to a potential purchaser in connection with a business transaction involving the sale of our company; and
- (b) transfer personal information abroad for the purposes described above, including processing and archiving by service providers in connection with these purposes.
Please note that while this information is located abroad, it is subject to the laws of the country in which it is held and may be disclosed to governments, courts, law enforcement agencies, or regulatory authorities of that country in accordance with its laws.
Links and Disclaimer Regarding Linked Sites
Please note that once you click on a link on the agent/broker’s site, you may leave this site for one that is no longer controlled by the agent/broker, and our privacy policy will no longer apply. You should read the privacy policy, if any, of each linked site to see how your personal information will be handled there.
