Privacy Policy
CASCADE VILLAGE REALTY PRIVACY POLICY
This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) of Cascade Village Realty (collectively, with its subsidiaries and affiliates, “Cascade Village Realty” “we,” or “us”) describes the privacy practices for Cascade Village Realty in connection with information we collect from you online through Cascade Village Realty’s website located at www.cascadevillagerealty.com and through our other online activities, including, without limitation, the Cascade Village Realty Online Sales and Rental web application (collectively, the “Site”). The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to inform you about the types of information we gather about you, including information gathered when you visit the Site, and information we may receive from third parties or affiliates in addition to that online information, how we may use that information, whether we disclose that information to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our use of, and your ability to correct, the information. Cascade Village Realty strives to help visitors of the Site protect their privacy while using the Site. By using the Site, you expressly consent to the use and disclosure of information as described in this Privacy Policy.
How We Collect and Use Information
We may collect information in several ways by your use of the Site, as well as from forms you submit to us (such as our “Request a Call” form), personal correspondence, such as texts, emails or letters that you send to us, or any other activity through which you identify yourself. We may ask you to voluntarily provide us with personal information on the Site, for example, by creating an account to pay rent or submit a service request via the Site, by submitting a rental application to a property online. In addition, when you visit the Site, our servers may log your IP address, the URL of your request and other information that is provided in the HTTP header. Also, our third-party service providers may ask you voluntarily to provide personal information on their websites and may share such personal information with us, as governed by their respective privacy policies. Our use of information received from a service provider will be dictated by the service provider’s privacy policies and not this Privacy Policy. We collect two types of information: personally identifiable information and non-personally identifiable information. Personally identifiable information is information that identifies you or can be used to identify or contact you (“Personally Identifiable Information”). We also may collect information that by itself typically cannot be used to identify or contact you, such as demographic information (such as age, profession or gender), user IP addresses, browser types, domain names, and other anonymous statistical data involving the use of our Site (“Non-Personally Identifiable Information”). Personally Identifiable Information we collect may include your name, email addresses, postal addresses, ZIP code, telephone number, date of birth, marital status, gender, age, username and password, and other information either desirable or necessary to provide services to our customers and visitors. If you sign up for certain services, complete a rental application, complete an employment application, or choose to pay your rent or submit a service request through the Site, then we may collect financial information (such as credit card information, bank account number and routing information, current employment information–including salary, employer, and job title, information about your current financial obligations, other sources of income, and credit history); information about other permanent residents of a space you seek to rent from Cascade Village Realty – including their social security number and date of birth; additional personal information to allow us to perform a background check or otherwise assess your eligibility to rent a space at Cascade Village Realty (such as your social security number, your driver’s license number, your passport number, whether you smoke cigarettes, prior addresses and rent paid at prior residences, your history of loan default, and your criminal history); and/or information required of residents of Cascade Village Realty (including information regarding an emergency contact for you–including the name, address, phone number and email address of a relative or other emergency contact, information about your pets and information about your vehicle). We may also collect information about you such as your use of the Site and communication preferences. To the extent we are able to do so, we may link your Non-Personally Identifiable Information with your Personally Identifiable Information. We may also link information collected online with information we collect offline or information collected online by third parties. Like many other websites, Cascade Village Realty may use cookies to customize content specific to your interests and track your use of the Site. “Cookies” are text files that are placed on your computer and may be used to store your personal information. In addition to cookies, Cascade Village Realty may use other now known or later developed technologies, to assist Cascade Village Realty in observing the behavior of users visiting the Site. These technologies access individual user information but the information is used only to compile aggregated statistics about the Site’s usage. The Site also uses Google Analytics (and in the future may use other similar sites or services), a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”), to better assist Cascade Village Realty in understanding how the Site is used. Google Analytics will place cookies on your computer that will generate information that we select about your use of the Site, including your computer’s IP address. That information will be transmitted to and stored by Google. The information will be used for the purpose of evaluating consumer use of the Site, compiling reports on Site activity for Cascade Village Realty’s use, and providing other services relating to Site activity and usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. Please note that by doing so, you may not be able to use the full functionality of the Site. The use of cookies by Google Analytics is covered by Google’s privacy policy. Web beacons (also known as tracking pixels) are bits of data that count the number of users who access a website or open an email and can also allow us to see if a cookie has been activated. Web beacons used on web pages or in emails allow us to see how successful an article has been, or whether an email message was successfully delivered and read in a marketing campaign. We also use web beacons to learn if you have clicked on any links or offers contained in emails. We may use this information to help us identify which emails are more interesting to you and to inform co-sponsors how many customers have clicked on their offers, if applicable. Cascade Village Realty may from time to time use the information collected from you to provide services which you have requested from us; including, without limitation, transmitting your rental application to the property of interest, or allowing you to pay your rent or submit a service request online. We may also use your information to process payments or perform a tenant screening in the event that you apply for space at Cascade Village Realty advertised on the Site or elect to pay your rent through the Site. We may also use your personal information to send you targeted messages, publications, news, and information about events, special offers, promotions and benefits. Cascade Village Realty may use third-party service providers to send and distribute e-mail and to perform other marketing and support functions. We may use information we collect from you to improve the content of the Site or our services (including our advertising), to enhance users’ experiences when visiting the Site, and to customize the content and layout of the Site for each individual user. We may also use the information collected from you: · to present our Site and its contents to you; · to provide you with information about our services that you request from us; · to provide you with notices about your rental application or lease; · to send you targeted messages, publications, news, or information about events, special offers, promotions or benefits; · to display advertising to you that we believe is relevant to your interests, understand which advertising is more interesting to you, and identify which advertisers or advertising networks display advertising that is most interesting to you; · to use third-party service providers to send and distribute e-mail and to perform other marketing and support functions on our behalf or otherwise to assist us in providing our services to you; · to carry out our obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us; · to notify you about changes to our Site or any services we offer or provide; · to allow you to participate in interactive features on our Site or services; · for identity management, security, and auditing; · for any other purpose for which you provide it; or in any other way we may describe when you provide the information. Text Messaging. Cascade Village Realty provides you with the ability to receive information, updates, reminders, and other messages via text message (“Text Message Communications”). Once you have opted-in to Text Message Communications by sending a text to the number provided by Cascade Village Realty, we will collect, and process personal information that you voluntarily provided to us including your mobile phone number, the content of a message, and other data necessary to provide Text Message Communications to you and improve our services. We may also commingle such information with other information we have collected or that you have provided to us. Our computers may process the information in your messages for various purposes, including formatting and displaying the information to you, preventing unsolicited bulk messages (spam), backing up messages, and other purposes relating to offering you Text Message Communications. We may send you information related to Text Message Communications or our other services.

Third-Party Websites
This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by Cascade Village Realty.

Please be aware that third-party websites that process payments or conduct tenant screenings for Cascade Village Realty and websites for our advertisers, sponsors, affiliated entities and other third parties that are accessible through the Site may have their own privacy and data collection policies and practices.

Do Not Track
Some web browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature. This feature lets you tell websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. These features are not yet uniform across browsers nor is there a common agreement about how to implement these features or interpret user intent. Our services are not currently set up to respond to those signals.
Fair Credit Reporting Act
In some instances, where you have applied for employment with Cascade Village Realty or have applied for residency at one of the apartments listed on our site, we will provide your information to a screening company in order to obtain a screening report for the property manager or owner.
