Privacy Statement for the House Hunting In Toronto website

We respect the privacy of visitors to our site. Please read this Privacy Policy so that you can understand how we seek to enforce our commitment to privacy. Questions regarding this statement should be directed to us by mail (see contact information at bottom of this page) or by e-mail.

Information this website gathers/tracks

The information gathered by the House Hunting In Toronto website falls into two categories:

(1) information voluntarily supplied by visitors to this website when they register or initiate transactions, and (2) tracking information gathered as visitors navigate through this site. Third party providers featured on or linked to from this website, such as vendors of products and services offered through this site, may be gathering the same kinds of information.

To help make this site more responsive to the needs of our visitors, help you navigate among sections, tailor content to your needs and to measure traffic within this site, this web server automatically collects limited information about your computer's connection to the Internet, including your IP address, when you visit this site. It also invokes a standard feature of browser software, called a "cookie," to assign each visitor an unique, random number, a sort of user ID, which resides on your computer. The cookie helps give us an idea of which parts of this site users are visiting and doesn't actually identify the visitors, only the computers that visitors are using to access this site.

Unless you voluntarily identify yourself (through registration, for example), we will not know who you are. Cookies cannot read unrelated data from your computer. Our advertisers and the third parties that provide products or services through this site may also assign their own cookies to your browser, but we do not control their cookies or their processes, and they do not regularly share information they gather with us.

To make use of certain features on this website (such as home search requests, online seminars, free change-of-address service, personal web pages, bulletin boards and other interactive forums) visitors need to register and to provide certain information as part of the registration process. We may also ask for information from those who buy products or services or conduct other transactions on this website. For example, we may ask for your name, e-mail address, street address, sex, age, phone number, city or town, and postal code, and sometimes request specific information (for example, about your current home, about your preferences regarding the new house you would like to buy, about circumstances regarding your mortgage, etcetera).

The information you supply may help us to offer you more personalized services, to tailor this site to your interests and make it more useful to you. Of course, even if you want to remain completely anonymous, you are still free to take advantage of the wealth of content available on this site without registration. The vast majority of this site does NOT require visitors to complete a registration form or give us contact information (such as a name and e-mail address) to visit.

Our online surveys and contests ask visitors for contact information (such as their e-mail address) and demographic information (such as their postal code or age). Demographic and profile data collected at this site will not be shared with advertisers, not even on an aggregate basis.

We collect financial information (like mortgage information, income, etcetera) only from visitors who are requesting specific information or services. We use the financial information solely to provide comprehensive information and services. This kind of information will never be shared with third parties (for example mortgage lenders) without the explicit consent of the visitor.

We also use customer contact information from the various registration forms, opt-in features and service features to send the user information about this site, the companies that we represent and our affiliates. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below.

As this privacy policy reaffirms, we strive to protect confidentiality of our visitors. We do reserve the right to use customer contact and other information when we deem it necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable laws, rules, or lawful orders of courts and governmental agencies, to enforce compliance with the terms and conditions for use of this site, or to protect third parties from what we regard as threats of serious harm.
