PRIVACY POLICY
We
at la-jolla-realestate.com(referred to as
"LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM," "We," "Us," or "Our")
recognize the importance of protecting the privacy
of certain information collected about the users and
visitors of Our Web Site (referred to as "User,"
"You" or "Your"). This Privacy Policy discloses what
information We gather, how We use it, and how to
correct or change it. At LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM, it
is Our intention to give You an understanding about
how We collect Your information and the use We make
of it in the course of Our business.
To that end, LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM gathers two
types of information about You: 1) data that Users
provide through optional, voluntary registration on
Our Web Site, and 2) data that
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM gathers through aggregated
tracking, mainly by tallying Web pages that are
viewed by Users throughout Our Web Site.
However, be assured that LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM
will not disclose Personal Information (as defined
herein) to third parties without Your consent,
except as may be noted in this Privacy Policy or
disclosed to You when the information is submitted.
How
Does LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM Collect Information?
Optional Registration We collect information by
specifically requesting it from You. Generally this
occurs when You register at the Web Site or request
information or a service. Usually, We and Our
business partners use Your information to operate
the Web Site and to deliver services.
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM also uses Your information
to inform You about other products and/or services
available from LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM and
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates.
Use of Tracking Use of Internet Protocol ("IP")
Addresses:
An IP address is a unique number that is
automatically assigned to Your computer whenever You
are surfing the Internet so that Your computer can
be identified by the main computers, known as "Web
servers," that "serve up" Web pages. This allows Us
to identify and gather general information and data
about You, such as the Web pages You view.
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM collects IP addresses for
the purposes of: helping Us diagnose problems with
Our main computers, for system administration, to
report aggregated information to Our business
partners, and to audit the use of Our Web Site. When
Users request Web pages from Our Web Site, Our Web
servers log the User's IP address. We do not
normally link IP addresses to anything personally
identifiable, which means that a User's session will
be logged, but the User will remain anonymous to Us.
For example, We collect and/or track the home server
domain name, the type of computer, and the type of
Web browser used by You to access this Web Site.
Such collection and tracking information is gathered
by Us as You navigate through this Web Site, and
shall be used by Us for Our business purposes only.
We can, and will, use IP addresses to identify You
when We feel it is necessary to enforce compliance
with Our Web Site Terms of Use or to protect Our
service, site, Users, or others.
Use Of Cookies What are cookies? Cookies are small
pieces of information that a Web site sends to Your
computer for record-keeping purposes, which
information is stored in a file on Your computer's
hard drive. Cookies make Web surfing easier for You
by saving Your preferences so that We can use the
saved information to facilitate Your use of Our Web
Site when You return to the Web Site. Cookies do not
tell Us Your individual identity unless You have
chosen to provide it to Us. We never save passwords
or credit card information in cookies. The use of
cookies is an industry standard, and as such, You
will find that most major Web sites use them.
By showing how and when Users use the Web Site,
cookies help Us see which areas of the Web Site are
popular and which are not. Many improvements and
updates to the Web Site are based on such data as
total number of visitors and pages viewed. This
information is most easily tracked with cookies.
Most cookies expire after a defined period of time,
or You can delete Your cookie file at any time. Most
Web browsers are initially set up to accept cookies.
You can reset Your Web browser to refuse cookies or
to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However,
note that some parts of LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM
and/or LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates' services
will not function properly or may be considerably
slower if You refuse cookies. For example, without
cookies, You will not be able to set personalized
preferences, and/or may have difficulty completing
marketing transactions.
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM and/or
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates have two (2)
primary uses for cookies. First, We use them to
specify a User's preferences. Second, We use cookies
to track Web site usage trends and patterns. This
helps Us understand Our Users' needs better and
improve areas of Our Web Site. While both of these
activities depend on the use of cookies, You have
the option of disabling (refusing) the cookies via
Your Web browser preferences.
You may occasionally get cookies from Our business
partners. LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM and/or
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates do not control
these cookies. The use of advertising cookies sent
by such third-party Web servers is standard in the
Internet industry.

order to describe Our viewers and services to
prospective partners, advertisers, and other third
parties, and for other lawful purposes.
Other: LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM may also disclose
account information in special cases when We have
reason to believe that disclosing this information
is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal
action against someone who may be violating Our
Terms of Use, or may be causing injury to or
interference (either intentionally or

the communications We direct to You. If a User

any usage provided herein for any reason, he/she may

What Happens When You Link To A Third Party Site?
You should be aware that when You are on LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM's
and/or LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates' Web site
You can hyperlink, or be directed to, other Web
sites that are beyond Our control and/or outside Our
service. For example, if You "click" on a banner
advertisement or a LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM search
result, the "click" may transfer You off Our Web
Site. These other Web sites may include sites of
advertisers, sponsors, and partners that may use Our
and/or LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates' logo as
part of a co-branding agreement. These other Web
sites may send their own cookies to Users, collect
data, or solicit Information.
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM and
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates do not control
such Web sites, and, therefore, are not responsible
for their contents or the hyperlinks or advertising
they choose to place on such Web sites. LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM's
and/or LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates' inclusion
of hyperlinks to these Web sites do not imply any
endorsement of the material on such Web sites or any
association with their operators. Our Privacy Policy
does not extend to anything that is inherent in the
operation of the Internet, which is beyond LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM's
and/or LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates' control.
Please keep in mind that whenever You give out
information on-line (for example, via message boards
or forums) that information can be collected and
used by people You do not know. While
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM and
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates strive to protect
Users' information and privacy, We cannot guarantee
the security of any information You disclose
on-line, and You disclose such information at Your
own risk.
Is Information Secure From Others Using The
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM Web Site?
The security of all information associated with Our
Users is an important concern to Us. We exercise
care in providing secure transmission of Your
information from Your computer to Our servers.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the
Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a
result, while We strive to protect Your information,
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM and
LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM-affiliates can't ensure or
warrant the security of any information You transmit
to Us or from Our on-line products or services, and
You do so at Your own risk. Once We receive Your
transmission, LA-JOLLA-REALESTATE.COM uses industry
standard efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of
Your information, such as firewalls and Secure
Socket Layers (SSL). However, "perfect security"
does not exist on the Internet.
