Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Privacy Statement, Rarebird Real Estate reserves the right to disclose your Personal Information and Automatically-Collected Information, without your consent and without additional notice to you, if we reasonably believe we are required by law, rule, regulation, judicial proceeding, court order, subpoena, or similar legal process to do so; if we reasonably believe that disclosure is necessary to protect, establish, or exercise our rights or property, or to defend against legal claims; or if we reasonably believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our other users or our employees, property, or business, or to take action regarding illegal activities or suspected fraud.

How long do you keep my personal information?

We keep your information for as long as necessary to meet the relevant purposes for which we’ve collected your information, including for the purpose of satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate length of time for holding your information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purpose for which we process your information, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, along with the applicable legal requirements.

Security of your information

We have put in place commercially reasonable security measures to reduce the risk of your personal information being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we use reasonable means to limit access to your personal information to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third-parties who have a legitimate need to know. They will only process your personal information on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. Unfortunately, no data storage system, or system of transmitting data over the Internet or wireless network, can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, and no security system can prevent all security breaches. As a result, we do not and cannot guarantee the security of our servers or any Personal Information or Automatically-Collected Information provided to us in connection with your use of the Site or when you interact with us.

Cookies and other Technologies

We use a feature of your Internet browser called “cookies” to make your interactions with the Site easy and meaningful. When you access the Site, our servers send a cookie to your computer or other operating device. The cookie is placed on your hard drive or other operating device, and it assigns your computer or operating device a unique, random number that acts as a sort of anonymous ID. Standing alone, cookies do not personally identify you; rather, a cookie identifies the computer or operating device used to access the Site. Unless you choose to identify yourself to us, such as by logging-in to your account or filling out a web form, you remain anonymous to us when accessing the Site.

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can disable the acceptance of cookies at any time by changing the preferences in your browser. Most browsers also allow you to change the settings to require that the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie. Please refer to your browser for information on how to disable and control cookies. Information about managing cookies in commonly used browsers is available online from www.allaboutcookies.org. If you disable your web browser’s ability to accept cookies, you will be able to access the Site, but you may not be able to successfully use certain features of the Site.

Our use of Google Analytics

When you access the Site, Google Analytics may automatically collect ‎information ‎from you through the use of Google’s analytics IDs, and Google provides some of this ‎information to us in aggregate and anonymized form. An analytics ID is a specific string of numbers and letters (often ‎called a “character string”) that is assigned to your computer or device but does not ‎name you. The analytics ID allows Google to track usage data of a website or mobile app, such as ‎date and time of visit, duration of visit, website traffic patterns, “clickstreams,” other ‎similar ‎information about how visitors use a website, ‎the type of web browser used, the ‎operating ‎system/platform a visitor uses, IP address, the ‎websites that referred or ‎linked a user to a ‎website, and your CPU speed.‎ Google Analytics provides information ‎about the use of our Site to us in aggregate form (i.e., data about many ‎users combined and not just about you). Some of this data might include the regional ‎location or city of users, but again, this data will be in aggregate (and not individual) ‎form. Google Analytics also provides data anonymization features which Rarebird Real Estate enables for its use of Google Analytics across the Site. We might use information we receive from Google Analytics to learn how users ‎are using the ‎Site in general, and to improve the Site. We will not receive the analytics ID ‎assigned to your computer or device that you use to access and use the Site.‎

“Do Not Track”

The Site does not respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals. As described below, the Site may contain links to other websites not owned or operated by Rarebird Real Estate. These websites may set cookies that obtain information about the fact that a web browser visited the Site from a certain IP address. These websites are not authorized to collect any other personal information from the Site unless you provide it to them directly.

Third-party Links on the Site

The Site may contain links to, or embedded code from, other websites not owned and operated by Rarebird Real Estate, for example, social media platforms such as Instagram and Facebook. We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements. When you leave the Site, or click on embedded content from another site, we encourage you to read the privacy notice of the third-party site or content provider.

Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 16. If we learn ‎that we are in possession of personal information collected from a child under the age of 16, we will immediately delete that information ‎from our systems.

Changes to this Privacy Statement

We may from time to time review and amend this Privacy Statement to take into account changes in law, technology, and our operations. We will post any changes to this Privacy Statement on the Site from time to time and, where appropriate, notify you by email. You can determine if this Privacy Statement has been revised since last accessing the Site by referring to the effective date or last updated date at the top of this Privacy Statement. Please periodically review this Privacy Statement before using the Site, as your continued use of the Site indicates to us your acknowledgment and understanding of any changes. All personal information held by us will be governed by the most recent Privacy Statement posted across the Site. If we intend to use earlier-collected Personal Information and Automatically-Collected Information in accordance with the terms of the revised Privacy Statement and doing so would result in a use for a different purpose than stated at the time of collection, where required by law we will request your express consent prior to such use.
