3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information for money. We share it only as described below:

• Service providers who help us run our business, such as customer relationship, phone and messaging, task management, data management, and website analytics tools, as well as email and hosting providers. They may use your information only to provide services to us.
• Transaction partners such as real estate agents, brokers, title and escrow companies, lenders, inspectors, contractors, and attorneys, to the extent needed to complete a transaction.

4. Calls, Text Messages, and Email

If you give us your phone number, you agree that we may contact you by call or text about your inquiry, our properties, and related services. Message and data rates may apply, and message frequency varies. You can opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP, and you can unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the link in the message. Opting out of marketing does not stop messages needed to complete a transaction you have started. We do not share mobile phone numbers or text messaging consent with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

5. Cookies, Pixels, and Advertising

Our website and advertising may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies, including the Meta Pixel, to understand how visitors use our site and to measure and improve our ads. You can control cookies through your browser settings, and you can manage ad preferences through your Facebook and Instagram account settings. Some browsers also offer "Do Not Track" or Global Privacy Control signals; our website may not respond to every such signal.

6. Data Retention

We keep personal information for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes in this policy, including to satisfy legal, tax, accounting, and record-keeping requirements, and then delete or de-identify it.

7. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please do not send sensitive information such as Social Security numbers or bank account details through unsecured channels.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Request access to the personal information we hold about you.

Our website and communications may link to third-party sites, including listing portals and social media platforms. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, and we encourage you to read their policies.
