Privacy Policy
Moving to Portland
(MTP) respects and protects the privacy of the individuals that use
the MTP Web site. Individually identifiable information about you is
not willfully disclosed to any third party without first receiving your
permission, as explained in this privacy policy ("Privacy Policy").
Disclaimer
MTP maintains its
web sites on an on-going basis, but it does not represent, guarantee,
or warrant that all information provided is accurate, complete, current,
or suitable for the viewer's purposes. MTP specifically disclaims
any and all liability for claims or
damages that may result from its Web sites or information contained
therein, including any Web sites maintained by third parties and linked
to the MTP Web site, for which responsibility lies with the entity providing
the information. A link from MTP Web sites in no way implies authorization
or endorsement of that site by MTP.
Moving to Portland and Cookies
Upon your first visit
to MTP, MTP sends a "cookie" to your computer. A cookie is a file that
identifies you as a unique user. MTP uses cookies to track user
trends and patterns to better understand our user base and to improve
the quality of our service. MTP may also choose to use cookies to store
user preferences. A cookie can tell us, "This is the same computer that
visited MTP two days ago," but it cannot tell us, "This person is Joe
Smith" or even, "This person lives in the United States."
Most browsers are initially
set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies
or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Be aware, however, that
some parts of the MTP site may not function properly if you refuse cookies.
What Information Do We Collect?
From time to time we may
request that you provide us with certain personal information about
you in connection with various services offered on our site. MTP
does not collect any personal information about you (such as your
name, e-mail address, etc.) except when you specifically and knowingly
provide such information.
MTP lists (to include name,
e-mail address, telephone, home address, etc.) are never sold, rented,
leased, traded, swapped, exchanged, or bartered to anyone. We
don't like to receive junk mail, and know you don't either.
Telephone
When you give information
on the "Find a Home In Portland" form, you are asked for a "phone" number
and "the best time to call you". We asked for this information
so that we can call you if necessary in order to clarify any item on
the form or to make certain you did receive the listings we e-mailed
you.
We do not abuse the telephone
calling privilege and most likely you will not receive any telephone
calls from us. However in exchange for the service of providing
you "free" listings without any fees or obligation, we believe asking
for this information is a reasonable request.
Links to Other Sites
The sites linked to by
MTP are developed by people over whom MTP exercises no control.
These other sites may send their own cookies to users, collect data,
or solicit personal information. We do not accept any monies
from recommended linked sites. So when you observe a link in MTP
which we recommend you visit such as a mortgage broker, we do not have
any financial arrangements (i.e., fee splitting, commission, etc.) with
the site.
With Whom Does Moving to
Portland Share Information?
MTP may share information
about you with business partners. However, we only divulge aggregate
information about our users and will not share personally identifiable
information with any business partner without your express consent.
For example, we may disclose how frequently the average MTP user visits
MTP, or which other query words are most often used with the query phrase
"portland real estate." Please be aware, however, that we will
release specific personal information about you if required to do so
in order to comply with any valid legal process such as a search warrant,
subpoena, statute, or court order.
Your Consent and Changes
to the Privacy Policy
By using the MTP web site,
you consent to the collection and use of your information as we have
outlined in this policy. MTP may decide to change this Privacy
Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post those changes on
this page so that you are always aware of the information we collect,
how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
Who can I ask if I have additional questions?
Feel free to
contact us any time and we'll answer any
additional questions you may have.
