Information collected and use

Your information will enable
us to provide you with access to all parts of this Site and to supply the services
and features that you have requested. We may aggregate the information to identify
patterns which we can use in our marketing and to help us develop, administer, support
and improve our services and features.
In particular, we may use your information to contact you for your views on our
services and to notify you occasionally about important changes or developments
to this Site or our services. Further, where you have consented, we might also use
your information to email you with details about any other products or services
which we offer which may be of interest to you. If you change your mind about being
contacted in the future, please email us at mail@propertydalal.com and
tell us.
The following features, by their nature, require and make use of personally identifiable
information.
Sending emails
The information that you complete on the 'contact agent' forms on this Site is recorded
by us and is sent to the agent that you wish to contact. This helps them provide
you with a more personalised service. We also send the agent details of your last
search to help them find property that matches your requirements more closely.
Email a Friend
When you use the 'email a friend' feature of this Site we record which properties
you have been sent to the friend solely so that we can track the popularity of those
properties. We record the other details provided in the email for internal monitoring
of the service. We will NOT add any information collected in this manner to our
mailing lists to protect you and the recipient's privacy.
Registering with us
If you
register with us, we save the details
you provide and use them to enable us to personalise the service we offer to you.
You can update 'your
details'
at any time via the site. When you are signed in, we automatically pre-fill your
saved details on the "contact agent" forms should you wish to use this element of
the service we offer to you.
Saving properties
If you register with
us and 'save properties'
you are interested in, we can identify which properties you have saved. We do not
make this individual information available to our member agents or third parties.
Using the 'email updates'
If you register with
us and use the 'your email updates' feature to receive
notification when new properties matching your criteria are added to this Site,
we record the settings you use and which properties have been sent to you. We do
not make any information about any property that has been sent to you available
to our member agents or third parties. If you are signed in when you send an email
to an estate agent, we include your settings to help the estate agent to provide
more personalised services to you.

Who has access to
the information you provide or we collect

We retain access
to all personal information that we have collected from you.
When our service is available via the websites of our partners, those partners may
have access to your information. Their use of your personal information is governed
by their privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices
of any other websites, even if you access them using links from this Site or if
you can access this Site or use our services from them. We therefore recommend that
you check the policy of each site that you visit and make sure that you are comfortable
with the terms of such policies before providing any personal information.
If you have consented on 'your details' page or the appropriate email form, we may provide any
of the information we collect to carefully screened third parties to contact you
regarding products or services that we think may be of interest to you. If you change
your mind about being contacted by these third parties in the future, please email
us at mail@propertydalal.com and tell us.
If our business enters into a joint venture with or is
sold to or merged with another business entity, your information may be disclosed
to our new business partners or owners.
If we offer a service to you from the Site that is provided by a third party we
may have to pass your information to them in order to deliver the service. By using
such services you consent to us providing your information to the third party. We
may also use third parties to provide services on our behalf which may include processing
(but not using themselves) your information e.g. to complete partial addresses or
to augment the information we hold about you. In either case, we will not pass your
data to anyone who is not also registered with the Data Protection Act or is not
subject to these or similar provisions in our contract with them and we will not
allow the third party to use your information commercially without your consent.
We will not otherwise disclose,
sell or distribute your information to any third party without your permission unless
we are required to do so by law.

Cookies and tracking

Like many websites, we use "cookies" to enable us to personalise your visits to
this website, simplify the signing-in procedure, keep track of your preferences
and to track the usage of this website. Cookies are small pieces of information
that are stored in the hard drive of your computer by your browser. Your browser
will have the option to prevent websites using cookies (your browser's help screen
or manual will tell you how to do this), but please note that this may reduce the
functionality of this Site and other websites.
Like all websites, our servers automatically record 'log files' containing information
about the volume and characteristics of our website traffic e.g. IP address, numbers
of pages viewed, length of time spent on site. We use log files to build pictures
of how our site is used that help us to monitor and improve the service. We cannot

Security,
storage and transfer of information
|
|
|
|
We follow strict security procedures to ensure that your personal information is
not damaged, destroyed, or disclosed to a third party without your permission (unless
they are providing services as outlined in the 'who has access to your information'
section above) and to prevent unauthorised access to it. The computers that store
the information are kept in a secure facility with restricted physical access and
we use secure firewalls and other measures to restrict electronic access. If we
are working with third parties we will require them to have in place similar measures
to protect your information.
All of the information we collect or record is restricted to our offices. Only employees
who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally
identifiable information. We will explicitly ask you when we need information to
identify you. We may require you to co-operate with our security checks before we
disclose information to you. You can update the personal information that you give
us at any time by viewing your details page.
We will retain your information for a reasonable period or for as long as is required
by law.
