Privacy Policy

We may collect information you provide through our website, property inquiry forms, property tip forms, buyer profiles, calls, emails, text messages, or other communications.

This may include:

• Your name, phone number, email address, and mailing address.
• Property addresses, ownership information, property condition, occupancy, and other property details.
• Photos, documents, and other materials you provide.
• Your timeline, reason for contacting us, and preferences.
• Investor interests, buying criteria, and transaction-related information.
• Communication records and text-message consent or opt-out records.

If you submit a property tip or information about someone else, please share only information you are authorized to provide. Providing another person’s phone number does not establish that person’s consent to receive marketing calls or text messages.

Our website may also collect technical and usage information, including IP address, browser and device type, approximate location, pages visited, referral source, and interactions with the website or forms.

We use the information we collect to respond to your questions, understand your property situation, and discuss possible next steps.

This may include researching property and ownership records, evaluating a property, scheduling calls or walkthroughs, preparing or discussing offers, and communicating about potential transactions.

We also use information to respond to buyer and investor inquiries and share property opportunities you have requested, subject to applicable consent requirements.

Information helps us organize inquiries, maintain business records, improve our website and operations, prevent fraud or misuse, and meet legal obligations.

Submitting information does not require you to sell a property or proceed with a transaction.

We may use the contact information you provide to respond to your inquiry by phone or email, subject to applicable law and your communication preferences.

If you opt in to text messages, we may send messages within the scope of your consent. These may include responses to your inquiry, property questions, appointment reminders, offer discussions, transaction updates, and requested follow-up.

We will obtain any required consent for marketing messages separately from a general property inquiry. Providing a phone number or submitting a form does not, by itself, authorize every type of text message.

Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.

You may opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP. You may receive a final message confirming your opt-out. For help, reply HELP, email erin@foregroundpropertyworks.com, or call 585-643-4055.

Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing goods or services, submitting a property inquiry, receiving an offer, or doing business with us. You may contact us by phone or email instead.

We respect your privacy and your choice about receiving text messages.

We do not sell, rent, or share mobile information with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes.

Text-message opt-in data and consent are not sold, rented, transferred, or shared for lead generation, third-party advertising, or promotional use.

We may provide the limited information necessary to service providers that deliver messages or support our messaging program on our behalf. We may also disclose information when legally required. These exceptions do not authorize another business to use your mobile information or consent for its own marketing.

The information-sharing provisions elsewhere in this policy do not permit sharing mobile information or SMS consent for third-party or affiliate marketing.

We may share information when reasonably necessary to respond to your request, operate our business, evaluate a property, or support a potential or completed transaction.

This may include service providers that support our website, forms, data storage, lead management, phone calls, messaging, email, scheduling, and automation.

Depending on the transaction, we may also share relevant information with title companies, attorneys, inspectors, contractors, lenders, buyers, sellers, or other parties involved in evaluating or completing the transaction.

We limit sharing to information relevant to the purpose. Transaction-related sharing does not give another party permission to use your SMS consent for its own marketing.

We may also disclose information to comply with law, a court order, or legal process; address suspected fraud or security concerns; or protect lawful rights and safety.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share mobile information or SMS opt-in data and consent with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes.

Our website is hosted on Squarespace. We may also use other providers for forms, lead management, email, phone calls, text messages, scheduling, analytics, automation, and related business functions.

These providers may process information as needed to deliver their services and support our operations, subject to the information-sharing limits described in this policy.

Our website may link to external websites or forms. Third-party services may have their own privacy policies and terms. We do not control the content or independent privacy practices of external websites.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate properly, remember preferences, understand visitor activity, measure traffic, and improve performance.

Depending on the tools enabled, these technologies may also support marketing measurement. Where required, we will request consent before using nonessential cookies or similar technologies.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings and any cookie controls available on our website. Blocking some cookies may affect website functionality.

Our work may involve reviewing publicly available or commercially available property information.

This may include ownership, tax records, liens, sales history, permits, assessments, code issues, zoning, foreclosure records, probate records, listings, and other property-related information.

Sources may include county and municipal offices, courts, clerks, tax and assessment offices, listing services, mapping services, and property research providers.

We may use this information to verify details, evaluate properties, understand potential transaction issues, and identify or contact property owners where permitted by law.

Public availability of a phone number does not establish consent to receive marketing text messages.

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards designed to protect information. However, no website, storage system, email service, text-message service, or internet transmission is completely secure.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to inquiries, evaluate or complete transactions, maintain business records, document consent and communication preferences, meet legal obligations, and resolve disputes.

When we collect text-message consent, our records may include the date and time, the method used, and the consent language presented.

We may retain limited information about an opt-out or do-not-contact request so that we can continue honoring it.

You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

We will handle requests as required by applicable law. Some information may need to be retained for legal obligations, transaction records, dispute resolution, or compliance purposes.

To stop text messages, reply STOP. For help, reply HELP.

You may also ask us to stop marketing calls or emails. If an email includes an unsubscribe link, you may use that link. We will honor requests as required by applicable law. Necessary communications about an ongoing transaction may continue where permitted.

To make a privacy or communication request, email erin@foregroundpropertyworks.com or call 585-643-4055.

We may update this Privacy Policy as our practices, services, or legal obligations change.

The updated policy will appear on this page with a revised effective date. Where required, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent for material changes.
