Privacy Notice

  1. Overview

Buyer Capital LLC (“Buyer Capital,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through compliance with this Privacy Notice (“Privacy Notice”). This Privacy Notice describes the types of Information we may collect from you when you visit the website at Buyer-Capital.com (the “Site”), and that you may provide in electronic messages between you and the Site. It also describes our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that Information. This Privacy Notice does not apply to Information collected by us offline, through any other means or by any third party.

Please read this Privacy Notice carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your Information and how we will handle it. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, do not use the Site. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to this Privacy Notice.

Buyer Capital may change this Privacy Notice at any time, at its discretion. Your continued use of the Site after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the Privacy Notice periodically for updates.

This Privacy Notice is subject to and governed by the Buyer Capital Website Terms of Use (“Terms of Use”) available at the Site. 

  1. The Types of Information Buyer Capital Collects About You and How Buyer Capital Collects Information About You

Buyer Capital may collect two types of information from you when you visit the Site: Personal Information and Non-Personal Information (collectively “Information”).

  • “Personal Information” refers to data by which you may be personally identified, such as name, postal address, e-mail address, and telephone number.
  • “Non-Personal Information” means data that is about you but does not identify you specifically. If you do nothing during your visit to our Site but browse, read pages, or view content, we will gather and store Information about your visit that does not identify you personally.

We collect Information in three ways:

  1. Directly from you when you provide it to us.
  2. Automatically as you navigate through the Site.
  3. Through third-party analytics.
  1. Information You Provide Directly to Buyer Capital: 

The Information that you provide to us directly through our Site may include:

  • Information that you provide to Buyer Capital by registering or filling in forms on our Site. We may also ask you for Information when you report a problem with our Site. And it may be necessary for you to provide us with Information so we can communicate with you about an inquiry you have.
  • Records and copies of your correspondence (including email addresses), if you contact us.
  • Your generic location (such as city or neighborhood) or, with your consent, precise geographic location data.
  • Information you provide through use of your account, such as when you share or save a property or save preferred searches.
  1. Information Automatically Collected from You: 

The Information that Buyer Capital may automatically collect and store about you when you visit the Site may include:

  • The Internet Protocol Address and domain name used. The Internet Protocol address is a numerical identifier assigned either to your Internet service provider or directly to your computer. We use the Internet Protocol Address to direct Internet traffic to you. 
  • The type of browser and operating system you used.
  • The date and time you visited the Site.
  • The length of time spent on a particular page. 
  • The web pages or services you accessed at the Site.
  • The website you visited prior to coming to the Site; and
  • Your generic location, such as city or neighborhood.

(c) Third-party analytics: 

The Information that Buyer Capital may automatically collect and store about you via third-party analytics may include:

  • Cookies – Cookies are small text files that a web server (such as Buyer Capital‘s or its chosen web hosting company server) places on a user’s computer. When accessing a cookie, Buyer Capital’s server reads a number associated with a browser but is unable to determine any data about a user. With that number, our web server can tailor its content to the needs of the specific browser, and we can optimize the Site for your use.
  • Web Beacons – Web Beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that are used to track the online movements of web or mobile application users. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a computer’s hard drive or your smartphone, web beacons are small graphics that are embedded invisibly on, for example, web pages or in HTML-based emails.
    Our third-party analytics providers may place web beacons on the Site that track what other websites you visit (both before and after visiting the Site). Our third-party analytics providers use information obtained from web beacons to help us improve our business and services. We do not control the use of web beacons by third parties.
  • Google Analytics Advertising Features – We also may have the following Google Analytics Advertising Features Implemented: Demographics and Interest reporting, Remarketing, GDN Impression Reporting, and Double-Click Campaign Manager. These features collect data using Google advertising cookies and anonymous identifiers. Buyer Capital and third-party vendors use these first-party cookies to access the success of online marketing campaigns, inform future campaigns, and improve usability on the Site. To learn how to opt-out of the Google Analytics Advertising Features we use, please see Google Analytics’ currently available opt-outs for the web at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
  1. How Buyer Capital Uses Information It Collects About You and the Purpose for the Collection and Use

We use Information that we collect about you or that you provide to us, including any Personal Information, for the following purposes:

  • To present our Site and the Site Contents (as defined in the Terms of Use) to you.
  • To operate, manage, and administer your account.
  • To provide you with data or services that you request from us. For example, when you provide your name and email address to contact us, we are able to use your email address to respond to your comment or question personally.
  • To carry out our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us, including for billing and collection.
  • To personalize our services and advertising to you.
  • To create new products or services or to improve our business and the Service.
  • To notify you about changes to our Site or any products or services we offer or provide though it.
  • To communicate with you regarding our products and services, including for marketing purposes.
  • In any other way we may describe when you provide the Information.
  • To fulfill any other purpose for which you provide it.
  • For any other purpose with your consent.
  • Site statistics are compiled into traffic reports, which help Buyer Capital understand, anticipate, and respond to user needs. If we learn, for example, of heightened interest in certain aspects of Buyer Capital’s projects, we are likely to highlight that information on the Site home page. This Information helps us create a better overall experience for Site users.

Buyer Capital will retain your Information as long as Buyer Capital believes it is appropriate for the purposes of this Privacy Notice.
