Ruby Realty

Privacy Policy

This policy explains what personal information Ruby Realty collects through this website, why, who sees it and what you can do about it.

Draft for legal review. The items in [brackets] must be completed and the whole text approved by a lawyer before this site goes live.

1. Who is responsible for your data

The data controller is Ruby Realty & Asociados, Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico. You can write to us at info@rubyrealty.com or call (787) 254-3120.

[PLACEHOLDER: legal entity registration details and the name of the person in charge of data protection, if one is appointed]

2. What we collect

When you send an inquiry about a property: your name, email address, phone number (optional) and your message.

When you ask for a price opinion on your property: the type of property, its municipality, whether you live in Puerto Rico, your contact details, any message and any photos you attach.

When you create an account: your name, email address, password (stored only in a scrambled form we cannot read), preferred language, and the favorites and saved searches you create.

When you visit: anonymous counts of page views for each listing, and technical security records (such as the network address of a failed login attempt).

3. Why we use it

To answer your inquiries, to value and list your property, and to put you in touch with an agent: these are needed to deal with your request.

To run your account, remember your favorites and saved searches and, once you confirm your email, send you alerts about new listings that match them.

To keep the site and your account secure, and to meet our legal obligations.

[PLACEHOLDER: confirm with counsel the legal basis for each purpose under the laws that apply to you]

4. Who receives it

The agents and managers of Ruby Realty offices who handle your request. We do not sell your data.

Service providers that help us run the site, only for that purpose: [PLACEHOLDER: hosting provider], [PLACEHOLDER: email delivery provider] and Cloudflare (network protection and delivery).

Google Maps: the map on a listing page is provided by Google, which may receive your network address when it loads.

5. How long we keep it

Inquiries and price-opinion requests: [PLACEHOLDER: retention period, for example 24 months after the last contact].

Accounts, favorites and saved searches: until you delete your account.

Security records: [PLACEHOLDER: retention period, for example 12 months].

6. Your rights

You can ask to see, correct, receive a copy of or delete your personal information, and withdraw your consent at any time.

If you have an account you can download your data and delete your account yourself from Account settings. Otherwise write to info@rubyrealty.com and we will answer within [PLACEHOLDER: response time, for example 30 days].

[PLACEHOLDER: the authority you may complain to and the laws that apply (Puerto Rico, United States, European Union if relevant)]

7. Cookies

We only use cookies and similar storage that the site needs to work: your language choice, and a marker and a token that keep you logged in if you have an account. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies, so there is nothing to accept or refuse.

8. Security

Passwords are stored scrambled, connections are encrypted, access to your data is limited to the staff who need it and sensitive actions are logged. No system is perfectly secure: if something goes wrong that affects you, we will tell you.

9. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy in a way that matters, we will update the version and date below and, where required, ask for your consent again.
