Privacy Statement

Privacy Statement

FlatFeeMLS.com is committed to providing consumers with the best information about flat fee realty and flat fee mls companies and provide a safe, secure environment. FlatFeeMLS.com wants you to know that we will protect your privacy.

Collection of Information

To provide its members with services and features that are relevant to their shopping experience, FlatFeeMLS.com collects information from its users via three principal methods:

Registration

First, FlatFeeMLS.com does not require the consumer to register to gain access to all our services. If the user is a flat fee real estate business, they have the oppurtunity to submit a listing, providing such information as their name, e-mail address, business address and other data, if applicable. This information is used to provide these businesses a directory listing on the site to advertise their company. The Goal of FlatFeeMls.com is to provide a free independent information to the consumer. Our revenue base will consist of sponsers displaying ads throughout the site.

Cookies and IP Address Logging

Second, FlatFeeMLS.com logs user IP addresses and uses “cookies” for site statistics. These practices allow FlatFeeMLS.com to better understand, in aggregate, the preferences of its consumers and thereby create new services that better serve these preferences.

In many ways, cookies have become a way of life on the Web: their use is now an industry standard and is common among most of the major Internet sites. Concerned consumers can reset their browsers to decline cookies or to provide a notification when a cookie will be placed on their computer. FlatFeeMLS.com feels that accepting cookies is an individual decision that each user should make based on his/her own level of comfort with the practice.

Online Surveys

Third, from time to time, FlatFeeMLS.com may ask users, on a completely voluntary basis, to share personal information when filling out optional online surveys offered through the FlatFeeMLS.com site.

Sharing of Information

FlatFeeMLS.com takes the privacy of its users extremely seriously. As a consequence, FlatFeeMLS.com has a strict policy against sharing individual user data with third parties, except in certain select instances. FlatFeeMLS.com may disclose or exchange user information when required by law, or, if necessary, to protect the rights or property of FlatFeeMLS.com or its users. In certain other instances.

Special Relationships

Some areas of the FlatFeeMLS.com web site are powered by third parties. In these cases, the Web pages, while having the FlatFeeMLS.com “look and feel”, reside on the third party server and are governed by the privacy policies or that company. FlatFeeMLS.com places clearly visible notices (such as the “Powered by” image on every page that is powered by a third party) to alert members when they are visiting such areas on the site.

Choice/Opt-Out

Some businesses will automatically be listed on FlatFeeMls.com. The purpose of the listing is to benefit the business and the flat fee consumer. Business who would like to be delisted on FlatFeeMLS.com can do so by email. We will verify with the company that they do intend to delist. Delisted companies wanting to be relisted will have to pay a reenlistment fee of $200.

Security

FlatFeeMLS.com has security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and unauthorized alteration of the information under its control.

Compliance with COPAA

The FlatFeeMLS.com service is directed to homeowners; it is not directed to children under the age of 13. FlatFeeMLS.com complies with the Children Online Privacy Protection Act and does not permit registration by and will not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under 13 years of age.
