The policy set forth below is provided only in English to avoid any misinterpretations caused by a language translation. If necessary, seek the proper advice, or do not use this site.

Scope

In this privacy policy (“Policy”), we describe our collection of your information, including personal information, that we collect about you whether through our website, www.theagencyre.com (our “Site”), or offline (e.g., if you contact us, through your real estate agent, or interact with our social media pages), and the services available through our Site and offline (collectively, our “Services”).

This Policy applies to all visitors to our Site, as well as any information that we obtain about persons offline, including buyers/sellers/renters/owners. The descriptions below regarding our collection, use, and disclosure of your information apply equally regardless of our relationship with you unless noted otherwise.

We respect your right to online privacy. When you register as a member of this Site, or any of our mobile products, or otherwise provide any personal information to us online, that information will only be used in conjunction with providing you with enhanced services related to the Site and mobile products. It will never be sold or shared with any third party.

We may, for instance, contact you to offer assistance, provide information or otherwise help with your real estate search or sale. We may also provide you with enhanced services such as an e-newsletter or instant alerts when homes that match your search criteria come on the market. You can opt out of communications at anytime via a simple link in our emails.

The Information We Collect About You

Like most sites on the Internet, we also collect anonymous data on how our visitors use our site. This data reflects site usage patterns gathered during thousands of customer visits each month and does not contain any personally identifying information whatsoever. We reserve the right to share this anonymous data, provide log files and other databases of user information to third parties for analysis, and to use this information to better understand client traffic and improve our online services.

Cookies and Tracking

We and our service providers use cookies and other mechanisms to track information about your use of our Services.

Cookies. We or our service providers may use cookies to track visitor activity throughout our Services. A cookie is a text file that a website transfers to your device for record-keeping purposes. We or our service providers may use cookies to track user activities on our Site, such as the web pages you view and time you spend on our services. The help section on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Visitors to our Site who disable cookies may not be able to browse certain areas of the services. When you register at the Site, we may use a cookie to store a unique, random session ID. We may use this ID to identify you in our database and to track information while you are on our Site.
Clear GIFs, Pixel Tags and Other Technologies. Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in functionality to cookies, which are embedded invisibly on web pages. We or our service providers may use clear GIFs (also known as web beacons, web bugs, pixel tags, or action tags, among other names), in connection with our services to perform functions like tracking the activities of visitors to our services, helping us manage content, and compiling statistics about use of our Services. We or our service providers may also use clear GIFs in emails to help us track email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and track whether our emails are forwarded.
Embedded Scripts. We may use embedded scripts, which is code designed to collect information about how visitors interact with a website, such as the website that linked you to our Site.
Analytics. We use service providers, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate the use of our Services. We use these tools to help us improve our services, performance, and user experiences. These entities may use cookies and other tracking technologies, such as web beacons or local storage objects (LSOs), to perform their services. To learn more about Google’s privacy practices, please review the Google Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. You can also download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Do Not Track. Our Services do not respond to Do Not Track signals. You may disable certain tracking as discussed in this section (e.g., by disabling cookies).

Interest-Based Advertising

We also use Facebook advertising, including Facebook Custom Audience. As set forth above and in the Cookies and Tracking section below, we may disclose certain information (such as your email address) to Facebook Custom Audiences (for more information on Facebook Custom Audience, go to the Facebook ad preferences page)—so that we can better target ads and content to you and others with similar interests on third parties’ websites or media (“Custom Audiences”).

In addition to Facebook, we use network advertisers to serve advertisements on unaffiliated websites and other media (e.g., social networking platforms). This enables us and these network advertisers to target advertisements to you for products and services in which you might be interested. Ad network providers, advertisers, sponsors and/or traffic measurement services may use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (including clear GIFs), Flash LSOs and other tracking technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. These cookies and other technologies are governed by each entity's specific privacy policy, not this one. We may provide these parties with information, including personal information, about you to assist us with our advertising campaigns.

You may opt out of many ad networks. For example, you may go to the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") Consumer Choice Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by DAA companies. You may also go to the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") Consumer Opt-Out Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by NAI members.
