Privacy Policy

This post was last updated on July 12th, 2021 at 08:28 pm

Your privacy is important to us, so please take a moment to read a little more about what steps we take to keep your personal information safe and what you can do to help when using this website.

Sensitive Information:

We will never ask you for sensitive information on this website or through e-mail. Sensitive information is information such as your Social Security Number, credit card number, bank account number or other financial information. We feel the best way to protect sensitive information is to simply not put it on the web, which is exactly why we will never ask for it.

If  we need sensitive information in order to purchase a property from you, which is usually required by our title company, our Closing Options Analyst that signed the paperwork with you will obtain that information in person when they provide you with an approved offer.

Collection of Personal Information:

We may use our website to gather personal information to help us better serve you. This information may include your name, address, contact information and other general information related to you or the property you want to sell but will never include sensitive information.

We may also send you e-mails requesting some of this information.

Safety of Personal Information:

We take steps to protect your personal information at all stages of our business. When your information is collected online through this website or through e-mail we want to be sure that your information is protected.

We have multi-layer security protocols we use for online information security. These security measures exceed industry standards and are regularly reviewed and updated to be as up to date and secure as we can reasonably expect.

Our e-mail security is state of the art, exceeding industry standards and includes security measures complying with the security standards set by some of the top government agencies. If it’s good enough to protect national security we feel our clients deserve the same protection.

Personal Information stored offline also has substantial security protocols which include secure storage facilities, limited personnel access and even armed guard in some cases.

Distribution of Personal Information:

We will never sell or rent your personal information. Occasionally we will share your personal information with other real estate professionals that we work with, but only in the event that it will help you meet your goals and help us to better serve you. An example of this would be if you asked us to put you in touch with a great agent or if you wanted someone to help you with an inspection.

We may also have to share your personal information with outside companies, such as title companies and their personnel, in order to complete the paperwork so we can purchase your house.

We will share your information with law enforcement and government agencies as required by law.

Cookies:

This website uses cookies. Cookies are small files that are placed on your computer that help us build a website that better meets your needs. How do cookies do this? Cookies provide us with information about which pages on our website you viewed, how often you viewed a page and other similar information. We can use that information to build a website that better meets your needs.

Cookies don’t tell us your name or address and they don’t let us access your computer or your files. Almost all major websites use cookies just like we do but we understand that this can be concerning, especially if you don’t understand exactly how cookies work.

We want you to be well informed, so feel free to learn about HTTP Cookies.

 Use of Google® Analytics:

We use Google® Analytics on this website, a service offered by Google to help us provide you with a better user experience; Google® Analytics uses cookies and anonymous identifiers to gather information about how you use our website, this information may include your IP address. Google® Analytics has several features that we use, which include:

  • Remarketing with Google® Analytics
  • Google® Display Network Impression Reporting
  • Google® Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting
  • DoubleClick® Platform Integration

We primarily use the services of Google® Analytics, and specifically the individual programs referenced above, to help build a better website that can provide you with a better user experience and that will generally be more helpful.

We also use this information to help us advertise. Through the Remarketing service ads for our website may appear on other websites that you visit later, like a little reminder that we’re here to serve your needs.

We use the Google® Display Network Impressions Reporting service, Google® Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting and DoubleClick® Platform integration to look at some of our online advertising to see what works best and what areas we need to improve on. Our online advertising is designed to be sure that people who need our services have easy access to them, so we don’t just want to provide you with a useful website, we want to provide you with useful advertising!

As a result of using these services its possible that sometimes our clients may see advertisements from third parties. We don’t allow third parties to advertise directly on our website so this isn’t very likely, but it could happen.

It’s important to remember that we use these services to help you have a better user experience and so we can build a website that you will find more useful. The information collected under these programs does not personally identify you by name or address or any type of personally identifiable information and it does not give us access to your computer or any of your files.

If you would like to opt-out of any of the Google® Analytics Advertising Features that we use you may do so in a number of ways. You can opt-out through “Ads-Settings” which are typically displayed on ads you see on the web when visiting a page, or if you are on a mobile device you may opt-out through “Ad-Settings for Mobile Apps”, but we want you to have even more options.

You can opt-out directly through Google Analytics Opt-Out  or by visiting Network Advertising Initiative Consumer Opt-Out.

Consent:

By using this website you are consenting to allow us to collect information as we have described. That includes your use of  contact forms or e-mail to send us personal information.

Disclaimer:

Our online and offline systems are designed to keep your personal information secure. We surpass industry standards for information security and will continue to do so. Even with the best security systems there is always the possibility of an attack. In the event our systems are compromised we will take action to be sure that as little information as possible is accessed and will work diligently to notify you of any such breach.

Access to your personal information for these reasons will not be unreasonably withheld. Please keep in mind that we will require you to verify your identity, to our satisfaction, prior to giving you access to this information. This is done for the protection of all of our clients and we will not make exceptions. To view your personal information please send an e-mail to: leads@181closenow.com.
