We also do not rent or sell these email addresses of un-registered users.
Shared information:
Though PropertyClubPro makes every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on us.
PropertyClubPro shares member information in the following areas on the site: Listing Service, Email Alerts and Professional Directory. When a member enters a sale or lease listing in the Listing Service, listing contact information is also entered. During this process, the listing submitter is able to view other members' contact information when he adds another contact beside himself to the listing. In addition, members searching PropertyClubPro can view contact information (name, email and phone number) when they view a property listing profile. PropertyClubPro allows users to share contact information with one another via its Email Alerts service. With Email Alerts users can save their property search criteria to have information about properties that match the specified criteria emailed to them. When selecting this service, users are given the option of releasing their contact information to other users who have property listings that match their criteria. This contact information is then shared with the users who have property listings that match the buying or leasing criteria. Unless required by law as detailed in this section or a user specifically takes action as discussed in this paragraph, PropertyClubPro does not share individual user search activity information and such activity information remains private to the individual user and to PropertyClubPro. Professional Profile users agree to share their contact information and allow all PropertyClubPro users to view their contact information via the PropertyClubPro Professional Directory or via links made available to users on a listing or in an email. PropertyClubPro users who do not opt out of the Professional Directory service during registration with PropertyClubPro (or anytime thereafter) also agree to share their contact information via the PropertyClubPro Professional Directory.
PropertyClubPro shares information with its partners for the purpose of providing related services in which we deem our users have interest. The use that PropertyClubPro's partners make of customer information will not exceed PropertyClubPro's use of the data. Key billing information (such as credit card number, expiration date and dollar amount) gathered from users making online purchases of products or services is shared with VeriSign, our credit card processing partner, in order to authorize charges to the credit card. PropertyClubPro also uses third party providers to perform email and postal mailings on behalf of PropertyClubPro, but this information (such as name, address and email) is confidential and is not used by the provider for any other purpose.
PropertyClubPro does not sell, rent or lease user information to any third party, except as disclosed here. From time to time, PropertyClubPro may obtain information (such as electronic mail addresses) from third party providers. It is our goal to only contact individuals who we believe may have a legitimate business interest in PropertyClubPro based on their membership or participation in other organizations or web sites, and who have indicated a willingness to be contacted for this purpose. While PropertyClubPro endeavors to work with other sites and companies with a similar respect for user privacy, PropertyClubPro cannot be responsible for the privacy practices of other sites.
Please be aware that in the event PropertyClubPro merges with a third party, or in the event all or substantially all of PropertyClubPro's assets are acquired by a third party, customer information, including personally identifiable information, will be shared and/or transferred to such third party. The information may only be used or shared by such third parties for the primary purpose for which the information was originally collected. If such third parties, or if PropertyClubPro for its own business needs, desire to use the personally identifiable information for another purpose, you will be notified prior to the information being used for a new purpose, and you will have the opportunity to opt out of such new use of your personally identifiable information.
