Your privacy matters to us. This policy says what we collect, why, and who sees it. We kept it pithy on purpose.
What We Collect
Contact forms. Your name, phone number, email address, and the message you write.
Property searches. If you sign up for listing alerts, we collect your name and email. If you create an account, we also collect your searches and the pages you view to better understand your preferences.
Phone calls. “Calls are recorded to give you exceptional service” is disclosed at the connection of every inbound and outbound phone call. Google Vertex AI (see below) transcribes and summarizes call recordings.
Emails and texts. When you email or text us, we keep the messages and any attachments, along with the date, time, and phone number or address they came from.
Public records. We look up property ownership, tax records, and other public information.
Safety checks. Before an in-person meeting such as a showing, we may verify your identity using public records. We use this only for safety and fraud prevention.
Your finances. We may ask about your budget and whether you are preapproved for a mortgage, so we can show you homes in your range. A preapproval letter and/or evidence of cash on account is required to submit an offer to purchase.
Social Security numbers. We do not ask for Social Security numbers.
How We Use It
We use your information to:
- Answer your inquiry.
- Provide professional real estate services as you request.
- Send the listing alerts you asked for.
- Follow up on calls and messages, using recordings and AI summaries.
- Verify identity before in-person meetings, for safety and fraud prevention.
- Prepare offers and contracts when you buy or sell with us.
- Understand how visitors use our site (see Cookies and Analytics).
We do not sell your information. We share it only with the people and services described in Who Sees It.
Who Sees It
Our team. Only the team members serving you, and on a minimum-necessary basis.
People in your transaction, with your permission. If you buy or sell a home with us, we share your contract and contact information with the title company, your lender, and your home inspector.
Referrals, with your permission. If we recommend a real estate professional, attorney, contractor, or tradesperson, we share your information with them only with your express consent.

Phone Calls and Texts
“Calls are recorded to give you exceptional service” is disclosed at the connection of every inbound and outbound phone call. Recordings, transcripts, and summaries are securely stored in our Cloudflare account database.
We text you when you contact us or opt in to receive text messages (such as inquiry responses, showing confirmations, transaction updates, or account notifications). Message frequency varies, and message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any text to opt out, or reply HELP for help. We do not sell or share your mobile phone number, SMS opt-in consent, or personal information with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
Cookies and Analytics
Our website uses cookies and browser storage. We use Google Analytics and our own first-party analytics, stored in our Cloudflare account, to see which pages are visited and how long visitors actively read. Our first-party analytics record the pages you visit, how long you actively read, your browser user agent, the page that referred you, a random visitor ID kept in your browser, your IP address, your approximate location (city, region, country, and postal code), and your internet provider.
If you arrive from a Google ad, Google Ads may record that your visit came from the ad. If you then contact us, we may tell Google that your visit led to an inquiry. We do not tell Google who you are.
You can opt out of Google Analytics with Google’s browser add-on, or block cookies in your browser settings. Some features may not work without them.
How Long We Keep It
We keep all brokerage records for at least five years, as Florida Statute 475.5015 requires of the brokerage we practice under — Brokerage business records.
Each broker shall preserve at least one legible copy of all books, accounts, and records pertaining to her or his real estate brokerage business for at least 5 years from the date of receipt of any money, fund, deposit, check, or draft entrusted to the broker or, in the event no funds are entrusted to the broker, for at least 5 years from the date of execution by any party of any listing agreement, offer to purchase, rental property management agreement, rental or lease agreement, or any other written or verbal agreement which engages the services of the broker.
