Privacy Policy

We at David Phaff and Associates at RealtyUSA  recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of certain information ("Information") collected about our customers and prospective customers (referred to as "Customers," "you" or "your").

To that end, David Phaff and Associates at RealtyUSA gathers two types of information about Customers: data that Customers provide through optional, voluntary contact forms on our site, and data gathered through aggregated tracking, mainly by tallying page views throughout our site. Such information enables us to tailor our content to fit our clients' needs. We will not disclose personal information to third parties without your consent, except as may be noted in this privacy policy or disclosed to you when the information  is submitted.

Use of Internet Protocol ("IP") Addresses :

An IP address is a unique number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you're surfing the Internet so that your computer can be identified by the main computers, known as "Web servers," that "serve up" Web pages.

We do not normally link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that a visitor's session will be logged, but the visitor will remain anonymous to us. We can and will use IP addresses to identify a visitor when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our site terms of use or terms of service or to protect our service, site, customers or others.
