Commitment to Privacy

Your privacy is critically important to us. Avalos Realty respects your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we may disclose it.

This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through our website and does not apply to information we collect from other sources. By using our website, you agree to this Privacy Policy and any future changes.

Information We Collect

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Avalos Realty collects certain non-personally-identifying information typically made available by web browsers and servers. This includes information such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. We use this data to better understand how visitors use our website. From time to time, we may release aggregated and non-identifiable statistics, such as usage trends, to help us improve our services and user experience.

Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors choose to interact with Avalos Realty in ways that require us to collect personally-identifying information. For example, when you sign up for a newsletter or leave a comment on our site, we may ask for your name and email address. When visitors leave comments, we collect the data entered into the comment form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string, to assist with spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address may also be provided to the Gravatar service to verify if you are using it. The Gravatar privacy policy can be found at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture, if you have one associated with Gravatar, will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media Uploads

If you upload images to our website, you should avoid uploading images that include embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images posted on the site.

Cookies

Avalos Realty uses cookies to enhance and personalize your online experience. Cookies help us store user preferences, improve site functionality, and deliver personalized content and advertising. They also allow us to save login information and screen display preferences and track website usage for analytics and marketing purposes. For example, when you leave a comment on our site, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience so you do not have to fill in your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies generally last for one year. When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies; this cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we use additional cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and if you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, these cookies will be removed. If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser that contains the post ID of the article you just edited; it expires after one day.

You may disable cookies through your browser settings; however, please note that certain features of the site may not function properly without them. For advertising purposes, Avalos Realty may use remarketing services such as Google Ads to display targeted ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your past visits to our site. You can opt out of personalized advertising by adjusting your preferences at Google Ad Preferences or using browser-based opt-out tools.

Embedded Content from Other Sites

Articles on our website may include embedded content such as videos, images, or other articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves in exactly the same way as if you visited the external website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged into that website. Avalos Realty is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites and encourages you to review their policies.

How We Share Your Data

We do not sell or trade your personal information. Your data may only be shared with trusted partners or legal authorities when necessary to comply with applicable laws, to provide requested services, or to ensure the security and proper functioning of our site. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

Data Retention

Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely to help us recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them in a moderation queue. For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profiles. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, with the exception that usernames cannot be changed. Website administrators can also view and edit that information.

Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you have certain rights regarding your personal data. You may 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, except for data we are obligated to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes. To request the deletion of your data, please send an email to info@avalosrealty.com with the subject line “Data Deletion Request.” In your email, include your full name, the email address associated with your account, and a description of the data you want deleted. To protect your privacy and ensure security, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request. Please allow up to 30 days for us to fully process your request.

Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration. However, you should be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Legal Basis and Compliance

We process your personal data based on your consent when you voluntarily provide it, on the necessity to perform a contract or provide a requested service, and on compliance with applicable legal obligations. If you are a resident of California under the CCPA, of the European Union under the GDPR, or of Mexico under the Federal Law on the Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties (LFPDPPP), you have additional rights with respect to your personal information. These rights include the ability to access, rectify, cancel or delete, and oppose the processing of your personal data, as well as the right to restrict processing or request data portability when applicable. In Mexico, these are referred to as ARCO rights (Acceso, Rectificación, Cancelación y Oposición). You may exercise these rights at any time by contacting us at info@avalosrealty.com and following the procedures required by the applicable laws.

Privacy Policy Changes

Avalos Realty may update this Privacy Policy from time to time at our sole discretion. We encourage you to check this page regularly for any changes. Your continued use of our website after any changes constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
