18 Why Great Agent uses your information

18.1 Providing access to our services
We use your personal information to provide our services to you. This includes things like returning examples for a home search result or processing your application for a rental property. We also use your information to improve our existing applications and develop new features or improvements. For example, we track how you use our services and use that information to troubleshoot issues and adjust things to improve your User experience.

18.2 Creating personalized experience
We use the information we collect about you and your activity on our services to personalize the application for you. We also might use it to show things like advertisements, content, or features that we think might be useful to you. This includes things like personalized search results that match your preferences or/and prior search filters.

If we are aware that you’re working with a particular real estate agent, we may share information about your saved searches and saved properties with that agent in order to let them know updated information about your current preferences or needs.

18.3 Getting in touch with you for communication
We use your contact information that you provide us, like your email, phone number and address in order to communicate with you about our services. This includes things like responding to requests, questions or comments that you might send us. It also includes situations where we are notifying you about transactions or service updates. We may also inform you about our services, new offers, special promotions, news for a market area, and other updates we think may be of interest to you.

If you ask us to, we also use your information to connect you to real estate professional agents, for example when you want to contact an agent in order to discuss a home you found for sale on our platform.

18.4 Other uses of your information
We use your data to detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent dealings and other illegal activities and to protect the rights and property of Great Agent and its customers.
There may be a reason we would like to use your information in a way that isn’t described here. If that happens, we will let you know so you can decide whether you’re comfortable with it or not.

18.5 Sharing your information
We understand that sharing information with third parties is a big responsibility and therefore we are committed to sharing information only when it is absolutely needed for a legitimate business or legal purpose, and only with recipients who will protect it. We may use your Personal Information that we collect or receive through this Service, as a processor and as otherwise stated in this privacy policy, to enable your use of the integrations and plugins you choose to connect to your Great Agent account. As an example, if you choose to connect your Google integration to your Great Agent account, we’ll ask you to grant us permission to view or download (where applicable), your Google Sheets, Google Contacts, Google Analytics and Google Drive. This allows us to configure your Google integration(s) in accordance with your requirements. Another example would be, if you wanted to use the Google Contacts integration to share the templates in your Great Agent account with contacts in your Google address book, we would need to access your Google Contacts to share your templates.

18.6 Information that you might want us to share
We share information when you ask us to share it. An example would be if you choose to contact a real estate agent, investor, mortgage lender, builder or a property manager through our platform, we will send them your name and contact information. Another example would be if you apply for rental housing through Great Agent, in that case your application information will be sent to the landlords you select.

18.7 Business partners and other service providers
When Great Agent hires a service provider to help run our business, we may need to give them access to your information to provide their service. We allow them to use the bits of information only to perform the service we have asked them to perform.

When Great Agent partners with other businesses in order to offer products and services to you, we may share information with those partners only as needed to provide those products and services in which case it is a subject to the terms of this privacy policy.

18.8 Legal transfers and compliance transfers
When a Great Agent needs to share data to satisfy a legal or regulatory requirement, including responding to a subpoena or other lawful governmental request for data, we will share information only as necessary to comply with that requirement.

We’ll tell you before sharing your information in these situations unless we’re prohibited from doing so. We may also share information if needed to enforce our legal rights, detect or prevent fraudulent actions or security concerns in order to protect public safety.

If Great Agent is involved in acquisition, merger or any form of transfer/sale of some (or all of its business), whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, we may share your information in connection with that transaction.

18.9 Public data and data that cannot be identified
We may share information that is collected from public sources that you choose to share publicly (such as public reviews) with third parties. We may also share aggregated or de-identified information that cannot reasonably be used to identify you.

18.10 Tracking of personal information
Great Agent allows certain companies to place tracking technologies like cookies on our sites, which allow those companies to receive information about your activity on Great Agent that is associated with your browser or your device. The companies may use that data to serve you more relevant ads on our sites or fix performance issues if such arise. Under some state laws, sharing data for online advertising like this may be considered a “sale” of information. Except for this kind of sharing, Great Agent doesn’t sell any of your information.
