Privacy PolicyRealEstateAgent.com is committed to protecting the privacy of its user/clients. When you register for RealEstateAgent.com's online services, the information you provide to us is used to provide the services you have registered for, to deliver e mail notifications to you, and from time to time, to validate your identity. We value our customers and aim to prevent any realestateagents.com complaints. Our data collection policies with regard to current and future services allow you to choose how much information you provide to us, and to control how we use that information. Read below to find out more. A. Our Commitment RealEstateAgent.com is committed to making your RealEstateAgent.com experience satisfying and safe. Our data collection policies allow you to choose how much information you provide to us, and what RealEstateAgent.com does with the information you supply. RealEstateAgent.com will keep your information within RealEstateAgent.com unless you consent to our supplying all or a portion of your information to third parties as a part of one of the RealEstateAgent.com service offerings. However, if you tell RealEstateAgent.com not to send you further e mail s, this instruction may be communicated to third parties who send e mail on RealEstateAgent.com's behalf solely to allow us to comply with your instructions. If you feel your request has not been carried out on third party sites, please contact realestateagent.com complaint department using the details on our contact us page. RealEstateAgent.com collects information online to allow you to use our services. Depending on the service you are accessing, you could be asked at various times to provide information such as your name, e mail address, street address, contact phone number or other information related to of the property you are seeking to buy or sell, and/or what type of customer you are seeking to attract. On other occasions such as when we require payment for RealEstateAgent.com services, we may request your credit card number to conclude the transaction. We request this information to deliver on the services you are requesting, and to allow us to provide our strongest value to you - a personalized online experience. Information collected online is often defined as being either anonymous or personally identifiable: 1. Anonymous Information refers to information that cannot be tied back to a specific individual. For instance, we may know that thousands of people have visited this RealEstateAgent.com Privacy Policy webpage, but we do not necessarily know their names, where they live, or their date of birth. What we collect from visits such as this constitutes anonymous information. Many of the individuals who access our services decline to use the personalization features that are available to them, and therefore those individuals are anonymous to us and the only data we collect about them is anonymous information. 2. Personally Identifiable Information refers to information that tells us specifically who you are, such as your name, e mail address or phone number. In many cases we need this information to provide the personalized or enhanced service that you have requested. We hope that, like many of our customers, you will find it beneficial to provide Personally Identifiable Information to RealEstateAgent.com so that we may provide valuable services to you. Registering with RealEstateAgent.com will also cause a RealEstateAgent.com cookie to be issued; this cookie allows RealEstateAgent.com to "recognize" you when you are on RealEstateAgent.com's site to allow us to personalize our service for you. B. Third Party Advertisers. We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our Web site. These companies serve their ads from their own web sites, independently of RealEstateAgent.com. As such, they may use cookies or request personal information from you, or they may share anonymous information about your visit with third parties. C. Third Party Cookies In the course of serving advertisements to this site, our third-party advertiser may place or recognize a unique "cookie" on your browser. Some of our business partners (e.g., advertisers) use cookies on our site. We have no access to or control over these cookies. This privacy statement covers the use of cookies by RealEstateAgent.com only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers. D. Links to Third Party Web Sites As a service to our user/clients we provide links to various unrelated third party web sites. We are neither responsible for the content on nor for the information collection practices of such web sites, nor do we control the privacy policies of such web sites. Their policies may be substantially different in this regard from RealEstateAgent.com. Accordingly, we recommend that you review their privacy and information collection policies before providing any information to such third parties. E. What Personally Identifiable Information of yours is collected by RealEstateAgent.com When you register for RealEstateAgent.com online services, the information you provide to us is used to provide the service for which you have registered. Depending on the services you have chosen to use, some or all of your Personally Identifiable Information may be used by RealEstateAgent.com to provide such services. Personally Identifiable Information may also be provided to intermediaries and third parties who assist RealEstateAgent.com in providing you with the service you request. For example, if you register to use our REALTOR� / Real Estate Agent service and agree to its terms, some of your information may be shown to real estate agents (e.g., characteristics of the home you wish to sell), but not all of your information if you are a seller (e.g., your e mail , since this service protects your anonymity). As another example, when you request assistance in estimating the value of your home, we may provide some of your Personally Identifiable Information and general information regarding your home to one of our partners who may in turn share your information with a local real estate agent familiar with your market to assist you. Once you have been contacted by a real estate agent, we recommend that you contact them directly for information about their specific privacy policies. When registering for RealEstateAgent.com services, you provide RealEstateAgent.com with your e mail address. We will use your e mail address to deliver these RealEstateAgent.com services, such as notifying you of new agent proposals if you registered for our Find a Real Estate Agent service. We and our partners may also send you information about other services if you have opted in to receiving such notifications. Agents: We use a credit card processing company to bill you for goods and services. This company does not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any other purposes. Service Providers: We use third party real estate agents to provide assistance in estimating the value of your home. When you sign up for our services, we will share all of your personally identifiable information so that the real estate agent can provide that service. If you post a testimonial on this web site, you should be aware that any personally identifiable information you submit here can be read, collected or used by other user/clients of this site, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit to this site. F.

It is our intention to give you as much control over our relationship as possible.

Their opt-in/out features are specific to each organization, but you should not receive e mail from these organizations unless you have indicated that it is acceptable. Before consenting to receive e mail from third parties, you should read their privacy policy and terms of use, if applicable; to make sure you are comfortable dealing with that company.
