Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share or sell mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in data, or text messaging originator consent with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. We may share information when you request to be connected with a real estate agent or professional, with service providers and business partners who assist our operations, when legally required, in connection with a merger or transfer of assets, or as aggregated, de-identified data that cannot be linked back to you.

Cookies

We do not use third-party advertising cookies. Some analytics tools may use limited identifiers to count visits and understand returning traffic. You can block or clear cookies at any time through your browser settings.

Analytics & Third-Party Services

We use analytics services to understand how visitors find and use these websites. Analytics data is used for site performance, search visibility, content planning, and lead-source reporting. It is not used to sell your data or build a cross-site advertising profile.

Claw Analytics (first-party)

We use a lightweight internal contact-click tracker to understand when visitors click phone, text message, or email links on our website. This tracker records the type of contact link clicked, the page where the click occurred, the referring page when available, basic device screen width, and a short link label. It does not record pageviews, browsing sessions, form submissions, message contents, or information typed into forms. The tracker respects browser Do Not Track signals where available.

Ahrefs Web Analytics (third-party)

We use Ahrefs Web Analytics, operated by Ahrefs Pte. Ltd., for traffic analytics, rank tracking, and SEO reporting. Data processing by Ahrefs is governed by the Ahrefs Privacy Policy.

Form Spam Protection

We use a hidden honeypot field on lead forms to help filter automated submissions without requiring visitors to complete a challenge.

Sub-Processors

A sub-processor is a third party that processes your information on our behalf to help us operate these websites. We use Cloudflare, Inc. to host and secure the websites, databases, and first-party contact-click tracking, and Ahrefs Pte. Ltd. for analytics, rank tracking, and SEO reporting.

Data Security

We maintain physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect your information. These sites use SSL encryption for data transmission. However, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

• Opt out of promotional emails by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email
• Opt out of marketing texts by replying "STOP" or "UNSUBSCRIBE"
• Request information about what data we have collected about you
• Request deletion of your personal data by contacting us directly

Children's Privacy

We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13 years of age. If we discover that we have inadvertently collected data from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly.

California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

California residents may have rights to know what personal information has been collected, correct inaccurate information, request deletion, opt out of sale or sharing, and avoid discrimination for exercising those rights.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of these websites after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
