(Effective Date: January 1, 2020)

The Durst Organization and its affiliates (collectively, and hereinafter "Durst", "we", "us", or "our") is committed to maintaining your confidence and trust as it relates to the privacy of your information. This privacy notice (this "Privacy Notice") describes our policies and practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of that information through the mobile and desktop versions of our website, web pages, interactive features and social media pages and their respective contents (collectively, the "Site") whether accessed via computer, mobile device or other technology.

Information You Provide to Us

We collect personal data for a legitimate business purpose, which is leasing residential and/or commercial property and the advertising of our affiliate businesses. Personal data means information that identifies you as an individual or from which you may be identified.

Personal Information: We will collect your name and email address when you register for an account, as well as your account password. Our use, sharing and protection of the other person's information will also be subject to the terms of this Privacy Notice.

Communications: You may send us communications, for example to report a problem or to submit queries, concerns, or comments regarding the Site.

Information We Collect Automatically

Our web servers collect the Internet Protocol addresses, but not the e-mail addresses, of visitors. This information can measure the number of visits, average time spent on the Site, pages viewed, and other such statistics. In addition, you may be asked for information that identifies you, including your name, email address, mailing address, zip code, telephone number, and/or fax. You may also elect to provide such information to us by sending or responding to emails regarding certain listings or services offered the Site.

Cookies: Cookies are data files placed on a computer or mobile device when it is used to visit the Site ("Cookies"). We use Cookies to collect and store certain information about you, for security purposes, to facilitate site navigation and to personalize your experience while visiting the Site. We use both session Cookies (which expire once you close the browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer or mobile device until you delete them).

Please be aware that if you disable or reject Cookies, some features and services of the Site may not work properly because we may not be able to recognize and associate you with your account.

Web Beacons: We include web beacons (also known as Internet tags, pixel tags, tracking beacons and clear GIFs) with the content that we deliver to you, which we will use to collect information regarding your interaction with such content. A web beacon is a transparent graphic image placed on a web page or in an email, which indicates that a page or email has been viewed or that an email has been forwarded. In addition, a web beacon allows third-parties to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer or mobile device that downloaded the page on which the beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, the type of browser used to view the page, and the information in Cookies set by the third-party. A web beacon may also tell your browser to get content from another server.

How We Use the Information We Collect

We use the information we collect about and from you to respond to your requests; verify your identity; communicate with you about your account and activities on the Site and, in our discretion, changes to any the Site policy; tailor content, improve the Site; comply with legal obligations; and for purposes disclosed at the time you provide your Personal Information or otherwise with your consent. We collect your location- based information.

When you request information, we need to know your name, email address, and mailing address. This allows us to process and fulfill your request.

We send you communications unless or until such time as you terminate your account.

Although the sections above describe our primary purpose in collecting your information, in many situations, we have more than one purpose. As a result, our collection and processing of your information is based on different contexts upon your consent, our need to perform a contract, our obligations under law, and/or our legitimate interest in conducting our business.
