Sharing Your Information
Data will not be sold or shared with third parties for promotional or marketing purposes.
- Information You Ask Us to Share: We share information when you request us to. For example, if you contact an agent or lender through our platform, we send them the information you provide.
- Service Providers & Business Partners: We may provide information to service providers or partners who help us operate our business. They are only allowed to use the information for the service we've requested.
- Legal & Compliance Transfers: If required by law, such as in response to a subpoena or government request, we may share your information. We will notify you, if permitted, before sharing the information. We may also share data to enforce our legal rights or to protect public safety.
- Business Transfers: If Christian Saunders Real Estate is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale, your personal information may be among the assets transferred. We may also disclose information for evaluation in the event of bankruptcy, liquidation, or other proceedings.

Information Collected
When you use our Services, we collect a variety of information from and about you and your device(s). Some of this information identifies you directly (such as your name or email address), while some of it is associated with you through your account, profile, or device (like the homes you choose to save or your location data).
When you use aspects of our Services (such as creating an account), we may ask you for information about yourself, such as your name, email address, and phone number. If you use any mortgage tools included on our websites or apps, we might ask you for more sensitive information, such as your income and credit score. Additionally, if you voluntarily contribute any information, such as agent reviews or any comments you provide on a “request information” form, we’ll store that data as well. The sections below more fully describe what information we collect in connection with your use of our different Services.
You may also provide information about other people through our Services. For example, if you share a home listing with someone, we may collect that person’s email address as part of your account information.
Information You Provide
- Home Search: We may provide several tools to help you find a home to buy or rent. If you provide any search criteria when using our home search tools, such as the type of home or number of bedrooms, we save that information so that we can tailor your search results to what you’re looking for.
We also help you connect with local real estate agents, property managers, mortgage loan officers, and other real estate professionals. If you choose to contact one of these individuals through our platform, we may ask for your name, email address, and phone number so that we can reach you and connect you with the right person.
Information We Collect Automatically
In addition to the information you give us directly, we collect certain information automatically as you use our services.
- Activity Information: We collect information about how you use our websites and mobile apps, such as your home search history, homes you view, what you’ve clicked on and other uses of our features, and the amount of time you spend looking at different parts of our websites.
- Device Information: We collect data about the browsers and devices you use to access our websites and apps. This includes browser or device model and settings, operating system, unique identifiers (including device ID), and the version of the app you’re using.
- We also collect data about how your browsers and devices interact with our services, including IP address, crash reports, system activity, and the date and time.
- Location Information: If you enable location services on your mobile device, we may collect the location of your device to provide you with location-based information, such as nearby homes and real estate professionals. You can turn off location services on your device if you prefer not to use this feature.
- We may also collect location information from your browser for similar purposes. Browser location services can be disabled through your browser settings.
- Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies: We may use cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, and similar technologies to gather information about how you interact with our services. This helps us improve your experience, personalize content, and track trends.
- Advertising: We use remarketing services (e.g., Google, Facebook) to advertise to past visitors of our site. Third-party vendors may use cookies to serve ads based on previous visits. You can adjust your ad preferences through settings on Google, Facebook, and other platforms, or opt-out entirely through browser plugins.

Data Security
We implement reasonable physical and electronic safeguards to help prevent unauthorized access of, maintain data security for and correctly use the personal information you have provided or that we otherwise collect through our services. However, while such efforts are intended to ensure the confidentiality of your personal information available to us as a result of your use of the services, we cannot and do not warrant or guarantee the absolute safety and security of your personal information. We work to protect the security of your personal information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. To assist in keeping your personal information safe, you must use an SSL-enabled browser. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password, your computer and your mobile device(s). Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer. Additionally, change your passwords often using a combination of letters and numbers, and make sure you use a secure web browser.
If you become a member of our website, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your device, and you agree to and accept sole responsibility for any and all activities that occur under your account or password. You also agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or password, or any other breach of security.
This Website is based in the United States and the information we collect is governed primarily by U.S. law. Where we are subject to the privacy laws of other countries, we comply with those requirements. If you access or use our services or provide information to us, your information will be processed and stored in the United States, where you may not have the same rights and protections as you do under your local law.
If you are located in Canada, this section applies to you
We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (i.e., express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.
In some exceptional cases, we may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent, including, for example:
- If collection is clearly in the interests of an individual and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way
- For investigations and fraud detection and prevention
- For business transactions provided certain conditions are met
- If it is contained in a witness statement and the collection is necessary to assess, process, or settle an insurance claim
- For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next of kin
- If we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may be victim of financial abuse
- If it is reasonable to expect collection and use with consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the information and the collection is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
- If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records
- If it was produced by an individual in the course of their employment, business, or profession and the collection is consistent with the purposes for which the information was produced
- If the collection is solely for journalistic, artistic, or literary purposes
- If the information is publicly available and is specified by the regulations
