Danielle Verboski Terms of Use Agreement

Overview and Scope

We believe that you should know what information we collect from you and how we use it, and that you should have meaningful control over both. This Notice describes how we collect and use information, including personal information, with whom we share information, your rights and choices, and how you can contact us about our privacy practices.

Please note that RE/MAX is a real estate company that operates through a franchise system.

Please consult with our franchisees and sales associates to learn more about their privacy practices.

For this reason, we maintain organizational, physical, and technical security arrangements designed to protect personal information within our organization against unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration or misuse.

Links to other websites and social media

If you visit a third-party website, you should read the website’s privacy notice, terms and conditions, and their other policies.

International data transfer

Your personal information may be accessed, stored and processed in a country where we have operations or where we engaged service providers. This means that we may transfer personal information that we maintain about you to recipients in countries other than the country in which the information was originally collected.

By using our Services, you acknowledge that such transfers of information outside of your country of residency may occur.

To learn more about the Privacy Shield program, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov. In addition, we rely on derogations for specific situations as set forth in in Article 49 of the GDPR. In particular, we collect and transfer to the U.S. information with your consent, or to fulfill a compelling legitimate interest in a manner that does not outweigh your rights and freedoms.

We encourage you to contact us if you have any concerns about our compliance with the Privacy Shield. Any questions or concerns should be emailed to me.. We will respond to complaints related to the Privacy Shield within 45 days. If a complaint cannot be resolved informally, we have agreed to participate in the JAMS dispute resolution procedures pursuant to the Privacy Shield principles. EEA and Switzerland residents with unresolved complaints may refer them to JAMS as described at https://www.jamsadr.com/eu-us-privacy-shield.
