Introduction

Haus Collection Realty Limited (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information in compliance with Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy laws. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you interact with our website (hauscollection.ca) and our real estate services.

Information We Collect

We collect personal information necessary to provide our real estate services, including your name, phone number, email address, mailing address, property preferences, budget, and transaction-related details. Additionally, we may collect marketing and communication preferences, as well as website usage data such as IP addresses, browser types, and browsing activity through cookies and analytics tools. This information is obtained directly from you when you contact us, subscribe to updates, request property evaluations, or engage in real estate transactions.

How We Use Your Information

Your personal information is used to facilitate real estate services, respond to inquiries, communicate about transactions, send relevant property listings and market updates, and improve our business operations. We may also use your information for legal compliance, fraud prevention, and security purposes. If you have subscribed to receive marketing emails, you may opt out at any time by following the instructions in our emails.

Sharing and Disclosure of Information

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. However, we may share it with trusted third parties, such as mortgage brokers, home inspectors, or legal professionals, to facilitate real estate transactions. These third parties are contractually obligated to maintain confidentiality. We may also disclose personal information when required by law, regulatory authorities, or in connection with legal proceedings. In the event of a business restructuring, merger, or sale, your information may be transferred to the new entity.

Your Privacy Rights

By providing your personal information, you consent to its collection, use, and disclosure in accordance with this policy. You have the right to access, update, or correct your information, withdraw consent for certain uses, or request deletion of your data, subject to legal obligations. To exercise your rights, contact us at privacy@hauscollection.ca.

Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures, including secure servers, encryption, and access controls, to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. While we take precautions, no system is completely secure, and we encourage you to take measures to protect your information online.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and tracking technologies, including Google Analytics and Google Ads, to analyze traffic and improve user experience. Cookies collect depersonalized data such as page views, referral sources, and time spent on the site. You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings. Additionally, our website may contain links to third-party sites that operate under separate privacy policies; we are not responsible for their practices and encourage you to review their policies before sharing personal information.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or as required by law. When no longer needed, information is securely deleted or anonymized.

Policy Updates

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Updates will be posted on our website, and where required, we will obtain your consent for significant changes. We encourage you to review this policy regularly.
