Before you use or submit any information through or in connection with the Services, please carefully review this Policy. By using any part of the Services, regardless of how you access the Services, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as further outlined in this Policy. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS OUR POLICIES, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE SERVICES. We will continue to evaluate this Policy as we update and expand the Services and our offerings, and we may make changes to the Policy accordingly.

We collect information in multiple ways, including when you provide information directly to us, and when we passively collect information from you, such as from your browser or device.
We may collect information from you in a variety of ways, such as when you:
The information you provide directly to us may include, but is not limited to: (i) name; (ii) email address; (iii) physical addresses (e.g. your place of work); (iv) phone number; (v) birthdate; (vi) details about properties you are interested in and your preferences related to home searches (vii) photographs and audio/video content; and (viii) financial information.
iii. Location Information
We may collect different types of information about your location, including general information (e.g., IP address, zip code) and more specific information (e.g., GPS-based functionality on mobile devices used to access the Services), and may use that information to customize the Services with location-based information and features. We may use such information to improve the Services, including providing you with location- based features (e.g. to identify listings that may interest you). To deliver customized content and advertising, we may share your location information with our Members, vendors, or advertisers. If you access the Services through a mobile device and you do not want your device to provide us with location-tracking information, you can disable the GPS or other location-tracking functions on your device, provided your device allows you to do this. See your device manufacturer’s instructions for further details. If you disable certain functions, you may be unable to use certain parts of the Services.
Sometimes we (or our service providers) may use the information we collect – for instance, log-in credentials, IP addresses, hashed email addresses, and unique mobile device identifiers – to locate or try to locate the same unique users across multiple browsers or devices (such as smartphones, tablets, or computers), or work with providers that do this, in order to better tailor content, features, and advertising, and provide you with a seamless experience across the devices you use to access the Services.
We may use the information we collect from and about you for the following purposes:
Please note that we may combine information that we collect from you and about you (including automatically-collected information) from one part of our Services with information that we collect from you and about you from other parts of our Services. We may also combine this information with information we obtain about you from our affiliates and/or non-affiliated third parties, and use such combined information in accordance with this Policy.
We may aggregate and/or de-identify information collected through the Services. We may use de-identified and/or aggregated data for any purpose, including without limitation for research, analytics, and marketing purposes, and may also share such data with any third parties, including advertisers, promotional partners, other users, and/or others.
We may communicate with you through SMS, Whatsapp, LinkedIn, Facebook Emails, Apps or through any available channel on behalf of ourselves, our affiliates, and advertisers.
You are authorizing Homrise.com and its corporate parents, affiliates and partners to deliver or cause to be delivered to you (including through Members and authorized third-parties) telemarketing promotions for products or services in addition to those about which you are applying, but that may be of interest to you using an automatic telephone dialing system or an artificial or prerecorded voice and text messages to the phone numbers you provided above. You are not required to sign this agreement as a condition of purchasing any property, goods, or services.
Consent varies based on the types of conversations the company has with its clients. (Conversational, Informational, Promotional, etc.) and on the nature of the conversation (Transactional or Promotional).
Conversational SMS/text messaging is a one-on-one two-way conversation between the company and its existing customers or known contacts with an existing business relationship.
If a customer texts us first and we respond quickly with a single message, then it is likely conversational.As long as the company responds with relevant information, then verbal and written permission is not required. This is called implied consent.
Informational SMS/Text & Voice Recordings: Informational messaging takes place when a contact gives the company their phone number and agrees to be contacted in the future. For informational text messaging, the customer does need to agree to receive texts specifically for informational purposes.
This is called express permission. Contacts may grant us this permission via text opt-in, on a form, on a website, verbally, or with written permission.
Promotional Text Messaging: Promotional texts are texts that directly promote, market, and sell your business, or its services. Contacts may sign a form, check a box online, etc. to receive promotional text messages.
Text Message Calls-to-Action (CTAs)
A “Call-to-Action,” also known as a CTA, is a link or button that you include in your text message to prompt your recipient to do an action.
SMS Messages: Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency depends upon your activity. For support, text HELP to 1-844-944-1477. To opt out at any time, reply STOP.
This might include a link to go pay their open invoices, an opt-in or opt-out to a text message campaign, a connection to a website or other web property, a link to a calendar, and more.
We may disclose and/or share your information to or with any non-affiliated third parties under the following circumstances:
If you receive email from us, we may use certain analytics tools, such as clear GIFs to capture data such as when you open our message or click on any links or banners our email contains. This data allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our communications and marketing campaigns.
We may also allow other third parties (e.g., ad networks and ad servers such as Google Analytics, DoubleClick and others) to serve tailored ads to you on the Services, other sites, and in other applications, and to access their own cookies or other tracking technologies on your computer, mobile phone, or other device you use to access the Services. We may provide our customer information (such as email addresses) to service providers, who may “match” this information in de-identified form to cookies (or mobile ad identifiers) and other proprietary IDs, in order to target or “retarget” you with ads when you visit other websites and mobile applications. (You may opt out of many of these service providers as described in the next paragraph.)
We neither have access to, nor does this Policy govern, the use of cookies or other tracking technologies that may be placed on your computer, mobile phone, or other device you use to access the Services by non-affiliated, third-party ad technology, ad servers, ad networks or any other non-affiliated third parties. Those parties that use these technologies may offer you a way to opt out of ad targeting as described below. You may receive tailored advertising on your computer through a web browser. If you are interested in more information about tailored browser advertising and how you can generally control cookies from being put on your computer to deliver tailored advertising, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Opt-Out link to opt-out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs. To opt out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customize Google display network ads, you can visit the Google Ads Settings page.
Please note that to the extent advertising technology is integrated into the Services, you may still receive advertisements even if you opt-out. In that case, the advertising will not be tailored to your interests. Also, we do not control any of the above opt-out links or whether any particular company chooses to participate in these opt-out programs. We are not responsible for any choices you make using these mechanisms or the continued availability or accuracy of these mechanisms.
Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. We do not recognize or respond to browser-initiated DNT signals, as the Internet industry is currently still working toward defining exactly what DNT means, what it means to comply with DNT, and a common approach to responding to DNT.
In order to ensure that the information we maintain is accurate, you may access certain of your information and delete, change, or modify that information in accordance with applicable laws. You must promptly update us if information you have provided to us previously changes or is inaccurate. Please be advised, however, that certain information may remain visible to Homrise. You may be able to request such deletion or modification through the Services or you can email Info@homrise.com Upon your request, we will close your account and remove your information from view as soon as reasonably possible. Please contact Homrise at Info@homrise.com to request closure of your account. Please be advised that we may retain information from closed accounts to comply with the law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations of any user, enforce our Terms of Use, and/or for any other purposes otherwise permitted by law that we deem necessary in our sole discretion. Once you transmit content through the Services, you may not be able to change or remove it.
Our computer systems are currently based in the United States and your personal data will be processed by us in the United States and in other countries. The data protection and privacy regulations in each of these jurisdictions may not offer the same level of protection as in other parts of the world. By using the Services, you agree to this Policy and you consent to the transfer of all such information to the jurisdictions identified above, which may not offer a level of protection equivalent to that required in the jurisdiction in which you reside, and to the processing of that information as described in this Policy.
The Services are intended for general audiences and not for children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information (as defined by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) from children under the age of 13, we will take reasonable steps to delete it as soon as practicable.
We have implemented administrative, technical, and physical security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and/or alteration of your information. These safeguards vary based on the sensitivity of the information that we collect and store. However, we cannot and do not guarantee that these measures will prevent every unauthorized attempt to access, use, or disclose your information since despite our efforts, no Internet and/or other electronic transmissions can be completely secure.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your applicable account. To the extent that you engage with the Services via SMS messages, you must protect access to your devices in order to prevent unauthorized access to the Services. If you believe that your account has been accessed without authorization, you must contact us immediately at Info@Homrise.com immediately. We are not responsible if someone else accesses your account(s) through information or devices that they have obtained from you.
The Services may contain links to or “frame” third-party websites, applications and other services (e.g., websites related to listings). Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites and services. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our Services and to read the privacy statements of each and every site they visit that collects their information.
California Law permits visitors who are California residents to request certain information once per year regarding our disclosure of “personal information” (as that term is defined under applicable California law) to third parties for such third parties’ direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please send an email to Info@homrise.com with “Privacy Support” in the subject line.
Homrise reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in the law, our data collection and use practices, the features of our Services, or advances in technology. Please check this page periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of changes to this Privacy Policy will mean you accept those changes.
Opt-out Right for California Consumers
Effective January 1, 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) introduced data privacy rights for Californians, including the right for consumers to opt-out of having their personal information “sold” as defined under the CCPA. As we explain in our State Privacy Disclosures, the CCPA’s definition of “sale” is broad and includes sharing practices common among online data collection.
We will get Back to you Shortly.
