The California Online Privacy Protection Act (“CalOPPA”) applies to operators of commercial websites and online services collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers.

This Privacy Policy is intended to disclose:

• Privacy-request procedures;
• Online tracking practices;

14. Do Not Track and Privacy Preference Signals

Some browsers transmit legacy “Do Not Track” signals.

Because there is no uniform industry standard governing traditional Do Not Track signals, the Website may not respond to those signals in a standardized manner.

Where the California Consumer Privacy Act or another applicable law requires us to recognize a valid opt-out preference signal such as Global Privacy Control, we will process that signal as legally required.

15. California Consumer Privacy Act

California’s Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”), provides privacy rights to California residents where a business is subject to the law.

As of October 9, 2026, the CCPA generally applies to a qualifying for-profit business doing business in California that determines the purposes and means of processing personal information and satisfies at least one statutory applicability test, including:

• Annual gross revenue exceeding the currently adjusted threshold of $26,625,000;
• Buying, selling, or sharing personal information of at least 100,000 California consumers or households; or
• Deriving at least 50% of annual revenue from selling or sharing California consumers’ personal information.

The inclusion of this section does not represent that I Buy Houses With Fire Damage San Francisco necessarily meets a CCPA threshold.

Where the CCPA applies, we will comply with applicable requirements.

16. California Privacy Rights

Where the CCPA applies, qualifying California residents may have rights including:

Right to Know and Access

Request qualifying information concerning personal information collected, used, sold, or shared.

Right to Correct

Request correction of inaccurate qualifying personal information.

Right to Delete

Request deletion of qualifying personal information, subject to statutory exceptions.

Right to Opt Out of Sale or Sharing

Direct a covered business not to sell or share qualifying personal information.

Right to Limit Sensitive Personal Information

Limit specified qualifying uses or disclosures of sensitive personal information.

Right to Non-Discrimination

Receive no unlawful discriminatory treatment for exercising applicable CCPA rights.

17. Sale and Sharing

California law gives “sale” and “sharing” specialized meanings.

Depending on the circumstances:

• Providing personal information to an independent third party for monetary or other valuable consideration may constitute a sale; and
• Disclosure for qualifying cross-context behavioral advertising may constitute sharing.

Certain disclosures are excluded by statute, including qualifying:

• Service-provider disclosures;
• Contractor disclosures;
• Consumer-directed disclosures;
• Affiliate transactions; and
• Business transfers.

Where the CCPA applies and we engage in qualifying sale or sharing, we will provide required opt-out methods.

18. Global Privacy Control

Where the CCPA applies, a valid Global Privacy Control or other qualifying opt-out preference signal will be processed as a request to opt out of qualifying sale or sharing as required by California law.

19. Notice at Collection

Where required by the CCPA, we will provide legally required notice at or before collection identifying applicable:

• Categories of personal information;
• Processing purposes;
• Retention criteria or periods;
• Sale or sharing practices; and
• Consumer rights.

20. California Privacy Requests

Where required, we will provide methods for submitting qualifying requests to:

• Know;
• Access;
• Correct;
• Delete;
• Opt out of sale or sharing; and
• Limit qualifying uses or disclosures of sensitive personal information.

We may verify requests as permitted by law.

Consumers will not be required to create an account solely to exercise a CCPA right.

21. Response Timing

Where the CCPA applies, qualifying requests to know, delete, or correct generally will receive a substantive response within 45 days, subject to legally permitted extensions.

Opt-out requests will be processed within the timeframe required by applicable regulations.

22. Authorized Agents

California residents may use authorized agents to submit specified privacy requests.

We may request information reasonably necessary to verify the consumer’s identity and the agent’s authority where permitted by law.

23. Sensitive Personal Information

California defines specified information as sensitive personal information, including qualifying:

• Government identifiers;
• Financial-account credentials;
• Precise geolocation;
• Contents of private communications;
• Genetic information;
• Biometrics used for identification;
• Health information;
• Racial or ethnic origin;
• Religious beliefs;
• Union membership; and
• Information concerning sex life or sexual orientation.

Our ordinary property-offer forms are not intended to collect unnecessary highly sensitive information.

Please do not submit unnecessary Social Security numbers, banking passwords, payment-card credentials, medical records, or similar information through ordinary Website forms.

24. 2026 CCPA Risk Assessments and Cybersecurity Rules

California’s updated CCPA regulations became effective January 1, 2026.

Where applicable, covered businesses engaging in qualifying higher-risk processing must comply with privacy risk-assessment requirements.

Certain covered businesses also must complete cybersecurity audits according to applicable phased compliance schedules.

Where these requirements apply to us, we will comply with them.

25. Automated Decisionmaking Technology

California has adopted additional requirements governing certain automated decisionmaking technology (“ADMT”).

The requirements concerning use of qualifying ADMT to make significant decisions begin according to the regulatory schedule, including requirements beginning in 2027.

If we use covered ADMT in a manner subject to those requirements, we will provide required notices and rights when applicable.

26. California Data Broker Requirements

California separately regulates qualifying data brokers.

A data broker generally is a qualifying business that knowingly collects and sells personal information concerning consumers with whom the business does not have a direct relationship.

A homeowner who directly submits property information through this Website ordinarily has a direct relationship with us.

If our broader operations independently qualify as a California data broker, we will comply with applicable:

• Registration;
• Privacy-policy disclosure;
• Delete Act;
• DROP platform; and
• Consumer-request requirements.

27. California Shine the Light

If California Civil Code section 1798.83 applies to our operations and qualifying personal information is disclosed to third parties for those third parties’ own direct marketing purposes, qualifying California residents may request information concerning those disclosures as provided by law.

28. Telephone Communications

If you provide a telephone number, we may use it to communicate concerning:

• Scheduling;

You may request that calls stop.

29. California Call Recording

California generally prohibits intentional recording of a confidential communication without the consent of all parties, subject to statutory exceptions.

Accordingly, if we record a confidential telephone or other communication involving a person in California, our operational practice should:

• Provide clear notice that recording will or may occur; and
• Obtain legally sufficient consent from all participants before recording.

We or providers acting on our behalf may record communications for legitimate purposes including:

• Quality assurance;
• Training;
• Documentation;
• Compliance;
• Fraud prevention; and
• Security.

Where another applicable jurisdiction imposes a stricter requirement, the stricter requirement will be followed.

30. Text Messages

If you provide a mobile telephone number and applicable consent, we may communicate by text concerning:

• Your inquiry;
• Your property;
• Scheduling;
• Inspections;
• Offers;
• Follow-up; and
• Potential transactions.

Where legally required, separate or additional consent will be obtained before regulated automated or marketing messages are sent.

Consent to marketing communications is not a condition of receiving an offer or selling property where prohibited by law.

Message frequency may vary.

• Respond to inquiries;

We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized:

• Access;
• Acquisition;
• Use;
• Disclosure;
• Alteration;
• Loss; and
• Destruction.

No electronic storage or Internet transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure.

34. California Security Breaches

Where California security-breach law applies, we will investigate suspected unauthorized access to qualifying personal information and provide legally required notices to affected California residents and applicable authorities.

Nothing in this Privacy Policy waives rights that California law does not permit to be waived.

35. Children

The Website is intended for adults involved in real estate matters.

It is not directed toward children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 through ordinary property-offer forms.

36. Third-Party Websites and Services
