What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

Who we share your data with
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
SMS Messaging Privacy Policy
This SMS Messaging Privacy Policy explains how CoreMark Holdings LLC collects, uses, and protects your personal information—including your mobile phone number—in connection with its text message marketing and notification program (the “Messaging Service”). We use a third-party service called Launch Control to provide the Messaging Service to you. For the purposes of the Messaging Service, Launch Control acts as our service provider and data processor of your information.
Collection of Information
When you opt in to receive text messages from CoreMark Homes, we collect your mobile telephone number. We also collect any email address you provide when signing up for the Messaging Service, your messaging history, and any information you include in messages you send to us through the Messaging Service.
We may also collect information about you using cookies or similar technologies. Cookies are pieces of information that are stored by your browser on the hard drive or memory of your device. Cookies enable personalization of your experience on the Messaging Service (e.g., sending you personalized text messages such as property alerts relevant to your interests).
If you participate in a contest, sweepstakes, research study, or email survey associated with the Messaging Service, we will collect basic contact information and any other information you choose to provide in connection with these activities. We will also collect your contact information if you contact us with questions about the Messaging Service or for customer service.
Use of Information
We use your mobile phone number and related information to: (i) send you real estate transaction alerts, property updates, and account notifications; (ii) send you occasional promotional messages about CoreMark Homes services where you have consented to receive such messages; (iii) deliver, analyze, maintain, and support the Messaging Service; and (iv) enhance the Messaging Service features and personalize your experience. We will not use your mobile phone number for any purpose beyond those described in this policy without your prior consent.
Sharing of Information
No mobile information collected through this Messaging Service—including your mobile telephone number, SMS opt-in consent data, and messaging history—will be shared with, sold to, or disclosed to third parties or affiliates for marketing, promotional, or advertising purposes. All text messaging originator opt-in data and consent is excluded from any data-sharing arrangements.
We may share your information only in the following limited circumstances:
Service Providers. We may share your information with trusted third-party service providers (such as Launch Control) solely to help us operate and deliver the Messaging Service on our behalf. These providers are contractually prohibited from using your information for their own marketing purposes.
Legal Requirements. We may disclose your information as required to comply with applicable law and legal processes; to respond to requests from public and government authorities; to enforce a contract with us; to protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property, and/or that of our affiliates, you or others; and to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages that we may sustain.
From time to time, we may share aggregate or de-identified statistical information about overall usage of the Messaging Service (which cannot be used to identify any individual) for internal business improvement purposes only. This aggregate data does not include mobile phone numbers, opt-in consent records, or any personally identifiable information.
Protection of Information
We take a variety of physical, technical, administrative, and organizational security measures based on the sensitivity of the information we collect to protect your information against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access. Unfortunately, no online activity can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information against unauthorized use or disclosure, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you provide. We do not accept liability for unintentional disclosure.
Retention of Information
We retain your information for as long as you participate in the Messaging Service or as needed to comply with applicable legal obligations. We will also retain and use your information as necessary to resolve disputes, protect us and our customers, and enforce our agreements.
Choices and Controls
Consent to receive automated marketing text messages is not a condition of any purchase. You can opt-out of receiving further commercial text messages via the Messaging Service at any time by responding to any of our text messages with any of the following replies: STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT. Upon opting out, your mobile phone number will no longer be used to send you Messaging Service communications.
No Sale or Sharing of SMS Data
If you sign up to receive text messages from us, we will not sell, rent, share, or disclose your mobile telephone number or SMS opt-in consent data to any third party for any marketing, advertising, or commercial purpose. We will not share such information with lead generators, data brokers, or affiliate marketers. All of the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
