1. About this policy

This Privacy Policy describes the information collected through SellMyHouseSmart.com (the “Website”) and how the Website's operator (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles that information. It applies when you browse the Website, submit a property inquiry, or communicate with us regarding selling real estate in Florida.

SellMyHouseSmart.com is a lead-generation website. Real estate services, if provided, are performed by appropriately licensed real estate professionals. Legal advice or representation, if any, is offered separately by independent licensed attorneys or law firms.

2. Information we collect

Depending on what you provide through our forms, we may collect:

• Contact details: name, email address, telephone number, and communication preferences.
• Property details: street address, city, property type, ownership or occupancy information, condition, and other details you choose to provide.
• Selling circumstances: your preferred timeline, interest in listing or a potential cash offer, and situations such as repairs, inherited property, or mortgage-related difficulties that you voluntarily disclose.
• Communication records: messages and details of our follow-up about your inquiry.
• Technical information: IP address, browser or device characteristics, referring page, and interaction or cookie information where collected by WordPress, WPForms, security tools, hosting services, or analytics technologies.

Please do not submit Social Security numbers, bank account numbers, passwords, or confidential legal documents through the general inquiry form.

3. How we use information

We may use information to answer your inquiry; understand your property and selling goals; discuss traditional listings, potential direct cash sales, or other available options; determine whether an appropriate professional may be able to assist; communicate about your request; improve and secure the Website; maintain records; and comply with applicable law.

Providing your information does not obligate you to sell, list your property, accept an offer, or hire an attorney. The Website does not guarantee a cash offer, closing time, or legal result.

4. When information may be shared

To help address your inquiry, we may share relevant information with the following categories of recipients:

• Licensed real estate agents or brokerages who may assist with listing, marketing, negotiating, or other real estate services, including potential referral arrangements.
• Potential purchasers or cash buyers when you express interest in a direct-sale option or when sharing is otherwise appropriate to your request.
• Independent attorneys or law firms if you request an introduction or authorize us to facilitate assistance concerning foreclosure, short sales, or another legal issue.
• Service providers that support website hosting, forms, email delivery, security, analytics, and business operations.
• Authorities or other parties when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or the Website.

Recipients may have their own privacy practices. We aim to limit sharing to information reasonably relevant to the requested service. We do not represent that contacting us creates a confidential attorney-client relationship.

Important: If the business later begins selling lead information or permitting unrelated third-party marketing, this disclosure and any required choices or consents must be reviewed and updated before that practice begins.

5. Cookies, analytics, and advertising

The Website and its hosting, WordPress plugins, security tools, or form provider may use essential cookies or similar technologies to operate forms, maintain site functionality, and help prevent spam. If analytics or advertising tools are enabled, they may also collect information about visits or interactions, subject to the relevant settings and applicable requirements.

You can manage cookies through your browser and, where provided, the Website's cookie controls. Blocking certain cookies may affect functionality. We will update this section to identify additional analytics or advertising practices if those tools are introduced.

6. How we may contact you

We may respond to your inquiry by email or, if you provide a telephone number, by telephone, consistent with the permissions you provide and applicable law. A professional to whom your inquiry is referred may also contact you about the requested service.

An inquiry does not automatically authorize unrelated promotional messages, automated marketing calls, or marketing text messages. Where additional consent is required, it will be requested separately. You can ask us to stop nonessential communications using the contact method below; marketing emails, when sent, should also provide any legally required opt-out method.

7. Data retention and security

We retain inquiry information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain business records, address disputes, and satisfy legal or operational requirements. Actual retention depends on the nature of the inquiry and the systems in use.

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the information collected. However, no website, transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. If a security incident occurs, we will address any legally required notifications.

8. Your choices and privacy requests

You may contact us to request information about personal details submitted through this Website, to correct inaccurate details, to ask that information be deleted when feasible, or to withdraw from further nonessential follow-up. We may need to verify your identity and retain certain records where necessary or legally required.

Additional rights may apply depending on where you reside and whether particular privacy laws apply to the Website's operator. We will respond to applicable requests in accordance with those laws. Contact us using the method listed in Section 12.

9. Third-party sites and providers

Our forms are powered by WPForms on WordPress. Other vendors, such as hosting providers, email-delivery services, security tools, and analytics providers if enabled, may process technical or inquiry data to provide their services. Links to independent professionals or third-party websites are governed by their own privacy notices and practices.

10. Children's privacy

The Website is intended for adults exploring real estate selling options, not children under 13. We do not knowingly seek personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child provided information, please contact us so we can review and address the request.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, technology, or legal obligations change. The current version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. We encourage you to review it periodically.
