Cookies & Analytics

The website may use cookies, pixels, local storage, log files, and similar technologies to support essential functionality, remember preferences, understand website traffic, and improve performance.

Cookies are small data files stored by a web browser. Some cookies are necessary for a website to function, while others may help measure traffic or understand how visitors use particular pages.

Managing cookies

You can usually configure your browser to block, limit, or delete cookies. Blocking certain cookies may affect website functionality or prevent some features from working correctly.

If analytics or advertising technologies are added to the website, this policy and any applicable cookie controls should be updated to identify those technologies and explain the available choices.

Calls, Emails & Text Messages

When you provide your contact information and request a response, we may contact you using the method or methods you selected or reasonably used to make the request.

Where a form includes consent to receive calls, emails, or text messages, communications will be sent in accordance with the consent language shown with that form. Consent to receive marketing communications is not a condition of purchasing goods or services.

Opting out

• You may opt out of marketing emails by using the unsubscribe instructions included in the message.
• You may reply STOP to opt out of recurring text messages.
• You may request that calls or other marketing communications stop by contacting us directly.

Even after an opt-out request, we may send non-marketing communications when necessary to respond to an active request, complete a transaction, or address legal, safety, or service matters.

How Information Is Shared

We do not sell personal information for money. We may share information only as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

Service providers

Information may be shared with trusted providers that perform services on our behalf, such as:

• Website hosting and technical support.
• Email delivery and communications.
• Form processing and spam prevention.
• Analytics and website performance measurement.
• Customer relationship or lead-management services.
• Data storage, backup, and security services.

These providers may access information only as needed to perform their services and are expected to handle it appropriately.

Professional and transaction-related parties

At your request, information may be shared with relevant real estate professionals or transaction participants when reasonably necessary to assist with your inquiry or transaction. Depending on the circumstances, these parties may include brokerages, lenders, title or escrow providers, inspectors, contractors, attorneys, or other professionals you authorize.

Legal and safety reasons

Information may also be disclosed when reasonably necessary to:

• Comply with applicable law, regulation, or legal process.
• Respond to a lawful government request.
• Enforce website terms or protect legal rights.
• Investigate fraud, abuse, or security incidents.
• Protect the safety of a person or the public.

Business changes

If the website or related business assets are reorganized, transferred, merged, or sold, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

Data Security

Reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures are used to help protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should avoid submitting highly sensitive information through general contact forms or ordinary email unless a secure method has been provided.

Data Retention

Information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to requests, maintain business records, provide services, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, comply with legal obligations, and protect the website and its users.

The appropriate retention period may depend on the type of information, the reason it was collected, whether a business or real estate relationship is active, and applicable legal requirements.

Your Privacy Choices

Subject to applicable law and reasonable identity verification, you may contact us to:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you.
• Request correction of inaccurate information.
• Request deletion of information.
• Withdraw a previously provided communication preference.
• Ask questions about how your information is handled.

Some information may need to be retained for legitimate business, security, recordkeeping, transaction, or legal purposes. We may also need to verify your identity before responding to certain requests.

Do Not Track signals

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not a universally accepted technical standard for responding to these signals, the website may not respond to every Do Not Track request. Browser privacy and cookie settings can still be used to control certain forms of data collection.

Third-Party Links & Services

The website may contain links to external websites, maps, social media platforms, real estate resources, or other third-party services. Those services operate independently and may collect information under their own privacy policies.

Bill Ure Homes is not responsible for the privacy, security, content, or practices of third-party websites. Review the privacy policy of any external service before providing personal information.

Children’s Privacy

This website is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly request or collect personal information from children under 13 through this website.

If you believe a child has submitted personal information through the website, please contact us so that the information can be reviewed and, where appropriate, deleted.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be revised periodically to reflect changes in the website, business practices, technologies, legal requirements, or services used.

The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date. Continued use of the website after an update means that the revised policy applies to subsequent website use and information collection.
