Privacy Policy for New Homes Realty, Inc.
New Homes Realty, Inc. ("NHR", "we" and "our") understands the importance of protecting the privacy of certain private information collected about our clients. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it. It is our objective to give you an understanding about how we collect information and the use we make of it in the course of our business operations.
NHR gathers two types of information about clients: data that clients provide through optional, voluntary registration on our sites, and data we gather through tracking, mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. Such information enables us to modify the content on our sites to better fit our clients’ needs.
How does NHR collect Information?
Optional registration
We collect information by specifically requesting it from you. Generally this occurs when you register at a site or request information or a service. The NHR sites and our service partners use your information to operate the sites and to deliver services. We also use your information to inform you about other products or services available from NHR and our affiliates.
Usage tracking
Use of Internet Protocol ("IP") Addresses:
NHR collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration, to report aggregated information, and to audit the use of our site. When clients request pages from our sites, our servers log the client’s IP address. We do not normally link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, but we can and will use IP addresses to identify a client when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our site terms of use or service, or to protect our service, site, clients or others.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of information that a Website sends to your computer for record-keeping purposes. It is fairly standard to use cookies in the industry, and you will find that most major Websites use them. By showing how clients use a site, cookies help us see which areas are popular and which are not, which in turn assists us in providing better services to our clients in the future.
With whom does NHR share my Information?
Usually NHR will not disclose any specific personal information that you submit to us about you in a manner that connects you with that information, except when we have your permission or under special circumstances.
Affiliated Companies: NHR may disclose some or all of your information to its affiliated companies, but this use will be specifically described to you prior to data collection or prior to transferring the data. Furthermore, you may be asked to provide certain information in connection with any special programs we may be offering through NHR or an affiliated company. By requesting more information, you give NHR permission to transfer your information to the affiliated company so further action can be taken on your request.
Partner: NHR may disclose some or all of your information to its partner in certain geographic markets where it does not currently have agents. By requesting more information about a home or requesting that an agent contact you, you give NHR permission to transfer your information to our partner so further action can be taken on your request.
Other: NHR may also disclose your information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our terms of use or service, or may be causing injury to or interference (either intentionally or unintentionally) with any of our rights or property. We may also disclose or access your information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, and for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain, service, and improve our products and services.
Is my information secure from others using the NHR site?
The importance of security of all our clients’ information is an important concern to NHR. We exercise extreme care in providing secure transmission of your information from your computer to our servers. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet is always secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your information, NHR and its affiliates can not ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or from us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, NHR uses the highest quality equipment and programs to safeguard the confidentiality of your information.

By using this site, you signify your agreement to NHR’s Privacy Policy as set forth above.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS POLICY, PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS SITE. Your continued use of our Website following the posting of changes to these terms will mean you accept those changes.
