We collect information about you directly from you and through your use of our website, and from third parties.

In addition, we may automatically gather general statistical information about our website and visitors, such as IP addresses, browsers, pages viewed, number of visitors, etc., but in doing so we do not reference you by individual name, e-mail address, home address, or telephone number.  We use this data in the aggregate to determine how much our customers use parts of our website so we can improve our site.  We may provide this statistical information to third parties, but when we do so we do not provide individual identification information without your permission.

Information We Collect From Other Sources.  From time-to-time, we may use or augment the personal data we have about you with information obtained from other sources, such as electronic self-guided home tour providers and other third parties.  For example, we may use such third-party information to verify your identity and to provide assurances that you are legitimately interested in buying one of our houses.  If you submit any personal data relating to other people to us, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

We may use your information to deliver information to you that, in some cases, is targeted to your interest, such as e-mail alerts and news updates.  You can opt out of receiving this information by emailing us.  We may ask you to provide us voluntarily with additional information regarding your personal or business interests, experience, or requests which we may use to customize our service(s) to you.

We may also use or disclose information to resolve disputes, investigate problems or enforce our Terms of Use.  At times, we may review status or activity of multiple users to do so.  We may disclose or access information whenever we believe in good faith that the law so requires or if we otherwise consider it necessary to do so to maintain service and improve our products and services.

We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to manage our website and to enhance our site based on the usage pattern data we receive.
