Squarespace may place cookies necessary for Website security, performance, forms, and functionality. Analytics cookies may collect information about Website visits and interactions.

You can adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies. Blocking certain cookies may affect the Website’s appearance or operation.

If the Website displays a cookie-preference banner, you may use it to manage nonessential cookies. Your browser or device may also provide privacy controls, although the Website may not respond to every browser-based “Do Not Track” setting.

5. How We Disclose Information

We may disclose information in the following circumstances:

Service Providers

We may provide information to vendors that perform services for us, including providers of:

  • Website hosting and administration;

  • Contact forms and email delivery;

  • Customer relationship management;

  • Website analytics;

  • Data storage and security;

  • Property-search and listing services;

  • Marketing and communications; and

  • Professional, legal, accounting, and technical support.

These providers may access information only as reasonably necessary to perform their services, subject to their agreements and applicable law.

Compass and Real-Estate Service Providers

Information may be shared with Compass and, when appropriate for a requested service or transaction, with real-estate professionals and service providers such as agents, brokers, escrow and title companies, lenders, inspectors, attorneys, contractors, photographers, stagers, and other vendors.

We will not share your contact information with an unaffiliated vendor solely for that vendor’s independent marketing without permission.

Legal, Regulatory, and Safety Purposes

We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to:

  • Comply with a law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or governmental request;

  • Satisfy professional, brokerage, or MLS obligations;

  • Protect our rights, safety, property, users, or others;

  • Investigate suspected fraud, security incidents, or misuse; or

  • Establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

Business Changes

Information may be transferred as part of a reorganization, brokerage transition, merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, subject to applicable law.

With Your Direction or Consent

We may disclose information for other purposes when you direct us to do so or provide consent.

6. Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money.

We do not knowingly share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are defined under California privacy law. If our practices change, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide any legally required opt-out method.

Standard Website analytics and communications performed by service providers on our behalf are not intended to constitute the sale of personal information.

7. Email and Other Communications

If you subscribe to marketing emails, property updates, or other communications, we may use the contact information you provide to send those communications.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by selecting the unsubscribe link in an email or contacting us directly. Even after opting out of marketing, we may send nonpromotional communications relating to an inquiry, requested service, active transaction, existing professional relationship, or legal obligation.

If text-message marketing is offered, any required consent will be requested separately. Consent to marketing communications is not a condition of purchasing real-estate brokerage services.

8. California Privacy Rights

California residents may have rights concerning their personal information under applicable law. Depending on the law and circumstances, these may include the right to:

  • Request information about personal information collected, used, or disclosed;

  • Request access to or a copy of personal information;

  • Request correction of inaccurate information;

  • Request deletion of certain information;

  • Opt out of certain sales or sharing of personal information;

  • Limit certain uses of sensitive personal information; and

  • Receive equal service and treatment when exercising privacy rights.

Some rights apply only to businesses meeting particular legal thresholds, and exceptions may permit or require us to retain certain information. Regardless of whether a particular statutory requirement applies, we will make reasonable efforts to honor appropriate access, correction, and deletion requests.

To submit a privacy request, contact us at heathergreen@compass.com. Please include “Privacy Request” in the subject line and describe your request. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

An authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf when permitted by law. We may request evidence of the agent’s authority and identity verification from you.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including responding to inquiries, providing services, maintaining business and transaction records, complying with legal and professional obligations, resolving disputes, and protecting our rights.

Retention periods vary depending on the type of information, the nature of the relationship, brokerage and regulatory requirements, and applicable law.

10. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information.

No website, internet transmission, electronic storage system, or security measure is completely secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information submitted or stored electronically.

11. Third-Party Websites and Services

The Website may link to or incorporate services provided by third parties, including Compass, property-search services, multiple listing services, maps, social-media platforms, school resources, lenders, inspectors, contractors, and other real-estate resources.

We do not control the privacy or security practices of these third parties. Information you provide directly to a third party is governed by that party’s privacy policy and terms. We encourage you to review those policies before providing personal information.

12. Children’s Privacy

The Website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through the Website.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without appropriate authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

13. Visitors From Outside the United States

The Website is operated in the United States and is primarily intended for individuals interested in California real estate. If you access the Website from another country, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our Website, services, technology, or legal obligations.

When we update the policy, we will post the revised version on this page and change the “Last updated” date. Material changes may also be communicated through the Website or another appropriate method.
