What is Personal Information?

Personal information is generally any information about an identifiable person other than the name, title or business address or telephone number of an employee of an organisation, provided that such business contact information is used only to contact the employee in their business or professional capacity.

We collect your Personal Information on the Website in order to enhance the services we offer you. We collect Personal Information from you only when you voluntarily submit it in order to obtain certain services or information.

What information do we collect from you?

We collect information to provide better services to all our customers, clients, Agents and employees — from figuring out basic stuff like which properties you are interested in, to more complex things like which webpages you find most useful, what matters most to you, or which services or products you might like.

We collect personal information from you only for the purposes we identify to you at or prior to the time we collect such personal information. We do not require this information in order for you to obtain access, to surf or to view the content on the Website.

For those few activities on our Website where the collection of personal information is necessary (for example, when you contact us with a question or a request), you will know because the purposes for which your personal information is to be used will be identified to you. For those activities, we may collect, for example, your name, street address, telephone number, fax number, e-mail address and postal code. For example, when you:
