What Personal Information Does IdealAgent.com Collect and How Do We Use it?
In order to provide our full range of services and provide the best experience for our clients, we may collect the following types of information:
User Provided Information. Areas of Website allow you to submit personal information to us (such as your name, email address, telephone number, and property address) via internet browser based (‘contact us’) forms or by sending us an e-mail. In addition, areas of our Website may require that you register to access your personal account. We may retain and use those communications in order to process your requests, respond to communications or to improve the quality of your experience.
Web Logs. By accessing our Website, our internet servers automatically record information your internet browser sends when you visit a Website. These logs may contain information such as your internet protocol (IP) address, browser version, domain name, language, date and time, and the referring Website. We use log analysis to improve the user experience of our website.
Anonymous User Information. Certain non-personal, anonymous information may be automatically provided to our Web servers by your computer. Additionally, certain other information (such as cookies, described below) may be transmitted by our Web server to your computer. That information does not contain any personally identifiable information. Specific types of anonymous information are described below.
IP Addresses. For each visitor to our Website, our web server automatically recognizes the visitor’s domain name or IP address (where possible). An IP address is a number assigned to your computer when you connect to the Internet. As part of the protocol of the Internet, web servers can identify your computer by its IP address. In addition, web servers may be able to identify the type of browser you are using or even the type of computer.
We collect IP addresses and related information for the purposes of system administration, to assess the traffic to our Website and to maintain and improve our Website. While it is not our practice to link IP addresses to your personally identifiable information, we reserve the right to use IP addresses to identify a user when we feel it is necessary to protect the compelling interest of our Website, Members or others, or to comply with laws, court orders, or law enforcement requests.
Use of Cookies. Cookies are short strings of text sent from a web server to a web browser when the browser accesses a Website. In simplest terms, when the browser requests a page from the web server that originally sent it the cookie, the browser sends a copy of the cookie back to that web server. A cookie typically contains, among other things, the name of the cookie, a unique identification number, and expiration date and domain name information. Cookies are used for personalization, tracking, and other purposes. Cookies may be 'session-only' or 'persistent.' Persistent cookies last for more than one visit and are typically used to allow a visitor to our Website to personalize their experience.
We may use cookies to analyze the traffic on our Website (such as total visitors and pages viewed), to personalize features or save you the trouble of retyping your name or other information, and to make improvements to the Website based on the data we collect. We do not save passwords or other sensitive information in cookies. The use of cookies has become a standard in the Internet industry, especially at Websites that provide any kind of personalized service.
Cookies may also be placed by third parties prior to or during your visit to the Website. Our Affiliates and business partners may use these cookies in connection with pixel tracking (discussed below) or otherwise. We do not control these cookies.

Web Beacons. Pages of our Website and our e-mails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs. pixel tags and single-pixel gifs) that permit the Company, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an e-mail and for other related website statistics (for example, recording the popularity of certain website content and verifying system and server integrity).
We do not collect personal Information automatically, but we may tie this information to personal information about you that we collect from other sources or you provide to us.
Other Information. We may also request other personally identifiable information from you, or you may affirmatively provide us with information. As a general matter, we try to limit the information we gather to the minimum information we need to perform the applicable services and to improve your Member experience. If you send an e-mail to our Website or otherwise affirmatively provide us with information beyond what we request, we will treat such information as having your consent to collect, retain and use the information for purposes reasonably associated with the purpose for which you provided the information. For example, we may retain a copy of the e-mail and any personally identifiable information you may have supplied in the e-mail with respect to a Member service question to help us evaluate our service, train our employees and provide better service to our Members.
We may also collect details pertaining to your transactions. In compliance with applicable laws, this data could encompass information like credit card details and real estate or broker license numbers.
We will only use your personal information (i) to provide our services or information about our services to you, (ii) for analysis in order to improve our services and operations, (iii) to develop solutions and services, (iv) to comply with applicable law, rules and regulations and (iv) for the specific reasons outlined on our Website when we collect your information.
