What is personal information?
Personal information is generally any information about an
identifiable person other than the name, title or business
address or telephone number of an employee of an organization.
How do the
Agent/Broker Sites collect personal information from you?
We collect personal information from you only for the purposes
we identify to you at or prior to the time we collect such
personal information. We do not require this information in
order for you to obtain access, to surf or to view the content
on the Agent/Broker Sites.
For those few activities on our Sites where the collection of
personally identifiable information is necessary (for example,
when you contact us with a question or a request), you will know
because the purposes for which your personal information is to
be used will be identified to you. For those activities, we may
collect, for example, your name, street address, telephone
number, fax number, e-mail address and postal code. When you
complete a loan or realty request at an Agent/Broker Site, it
may be necessary for us to supplement the information you
provide with information from third party sources. We will not
collect more information than is necessary.
Does Agent/Broker
collect or use information collected from you with technology?
The Agent/Broker Sites collect some information about you using
technology, so it may not be readily apparent to you that it is
being collected. For instance, when you come to our Sites, your
IP address may be collected so that we know how many visits we
have had by separate individuals. An IP address is often
associated with the place from which you enter the Internet like
your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or your firm or company.
This information is not personally identifiable.
How does Agent/Broker
use the personal information it has collected from you?
We collect and use personally identifiable information to
respond to your questions or comments, to send out information
on our real estate or mortgage services or our company, to
promote the products or services of other third party suppliers
to Agent/Broker, to administer certain services as identified to
you at the time of collection . We will also use such
information for statistical and marketing analyses, in a form
where the information is no longer identifiable with you.
To whom will
Agent/Broker provide your personal information?
Personal information is used by us. We will not disclose such
information, other than as follows:
-
to third
party service providers with whom Agent/Broker has a
contractual agreement, which includes appropriate privacy
standards, for the purpose of (i) performing functions such
as data processing, database services, marketing or
information technology support; (ii) submitting and
processing your loan, realty or other related requests for
products or services of our third party service providers;
and (iii) providing insurance for Agent/Broker product
liability claims on behalf of Agent/Broker and
-
to comply
with any legal actions like a court order, to enforce our
user agreement/terms and conditions for the Agent/Broker
Sites or to protect the safety and security of guests and
our site.
We will let you know at the time the information is collected if
such third-party sharing is anticipated, will identify the types
of businesses at the area of collection, will describe the
information we will share (like your mail or e-mail address) and
will only share data if you agree. We will share personal data
only with those who have agreed to follow policies that share
our high standards of privacy.
