01 Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how Emlak Realty ("Emlak Realty," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you visit this website describing new-construction homes in Nesconset, NY and the surrounding Long Island area (the "Site"), or when you contact us, request pricing, book a consultation, or submit a form on the Site.
By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or submit information to us.
02 Information we collect
We collect information you choose to give us directly, and limited technical information generated automatically when you browse the Site.
Information you provide
- Contact details — name, phone number, and email address, submitted through our "Get Lots & Pricing," consultation, and lead-request forms.
- Home & financing preferences — your preferred town or homesite, move-in timeline, mortgage pre-approval status, planned down payment range, and estimated credit score range, submitted through our lead qualification questionnaire. These fields are self-reported ranges used to route your inquiry — we do not run a credit check or pull your credit report.
- Consultation details — the date, time, and reason you provide when booking a consultation.
- Any other information you choose to include in an open text field, phone call, text message, or email to us.
Information collected automatically
- Usage & device data — such as browser type, device type, general (non-precise) location inferred from IP address, pages viewed, and referring pages, typically collected through standard web server logs and, if enabled, analytics tools.
We do not ask for or knowingly collect Social Security numbers, bank account or payment card numbers, or other sensitive financial account credentials through this Site. Please do not include this type of information in any form field or message to us.
03 How we use information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your inquiry, share pricing, floor plans, and availability, and schedule or manage a consultation;
- Route your inquiry to the appropriate sales, financing, or construction team member;
- Send you information about available homesites, designs, and updates you've requested;
- Understand general interest in specific towns, floor plans, or features to improve the Site and our offerings;
- Maintain the security, integrity, and proper functioning of the Site; and
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.
We do not use the information you submit to make any automated decision that produces a legal or similarly significant effect on you.
04 Calls, texts & consent
If you check the consent box on a lead or consultation form, you agree that Emlak Realty and its representatives may contact you by phone call and SMS/text message — including using automated dialing or messaging technology — at the phone number you provide, regarding available homes, your inquiry, and related updates. Standard message and data rates may apply, and message frequency may vary.
Consent to receive calls or texts is not a condition of purchasing any property or service from us. You may revoke consent at any time by replying "STOP" to a text message, telling us during a call that you'd like to be removed from our contact list, or emailing us at the address in the Contact us section below.
05 How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share the information described above with:
- Our team — Emlak Realty sales, construction, and administrative staff who need the information to respond to your inquiry;
- Service providers — vendors who help us operate the Site, host our forms, send communications, or provide similar support, under obligations to protect your information and use it only to provide services to us;
- Lending & financing partners — only if you specifically ask to be connected with a mortgage or financing professional, or agree to be referred for pre-approval assistance;
- Professional advisors — such as legal or accounting advisors, where necessary; and
- Legal & safety purposes — where required to comply with a law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Emlak Realty, our clients, or others.
If Emlak Realty is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to standard confidentiality protections.
06 Cookies & site data
The Site itself does not set tracking or advertising cookies and does not use browser local storage to profile visitors. If we add analytics, advertising, or chat tools in the future that use cookies or similar technologies, we will update this policy to describe what is collected and how you can control it. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings; doing so may affect how parts of the Site function.
07 Data retention & security
We retain the information you submit for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry, maintain our sales and customer records, and comply with legal, accounting, or reporting obligations, after which it is deleted or de-identified.
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards designed to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
08 Your choices & rights
You may:
- Ask us what personal information we hold about you and request a copy of it;
- Ask us to correct inaccurate information;
- Ask us to delete information we hold about you, subject to legal or legitimate business retention needs;
- Opt out of marketing calls, texts, or emails at any time (see Calls, texts & consent above); and
- Ask us not to share your information with financing or lending partners.
To exercise any of these choices, contact us using the details in Contact us. If you are a California resident, these choices are consistent with rights available to you under the California Consumer Privacy Act; we do not sell or "share" (as those terms are defined under California law) your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
09 Children's privacy
The Site is intended for adults researching new-construction homes and is not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.
10 Third-party links
The Site links to third-party social media platforms (including Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Pinterest, Snapchat, Zillow, Yelp, and Google Maps) and to our corporate website. These third parties operate under their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party sites.
11 Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
