Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy contains the following sections:

This Privacy Policy describes how House of Wholesaling (“House of Wholesaling,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and discloses Personal Information (defined below) in the course of our business, including, but not limited to, through the websites (the “Sites”) and mobile application (the “Application”) maintained by or on behalf of the Company, such as, http://houseofwholesaling.com and the H.O.W. mobile app.

By using the Sites, Application, and any other applications, widgets, tools, features, content (including without limitation videos and images), services and options available through the Sites or Application or otherwise provided by the Company in connection with the Sites or Application (collectively with the Sites and Application, the “Services”), you agree to our collection and use of Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), including amendments, requires certain disclosures and gives certain rights to California residents regarding their Personal Information. While the CCPA applies only to California residents, we believe it is important to provide the same privacy rights to everyone regardless of where you live. Thus, the rights described in this policy and the tools referenced below may be used by anyone with whom we interact or about whom we collect Personal Information. Your rights can be summarized as follows:

  • You can ask us what Personal Information we have about you, including a list of categories of your Personal Information that we have sold and a list of categories of your Personal Information that we have shared.
  • You can ask us to delete your Personal Information.
  • You can ask us to stop selling your Personal Information.

More information on each of these requests and how to make them is provided below.

All capitalized terms in this Privacy Policy that are not otherwise defined have the meanings given to them in the Terms of Use https://houseofwholesaling.com/terms-of-use.

  1. Personal Information Defined

For purposes of this Privacy Policy “Personal Information” means any information that identifies, relates to, describes, references, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer, household, or device.

Not all information we collect is Personal Information under this definition. For example, Personal Information does not include publicly available information collected from government records or information that has been de-identified or aggregated in a way that no longer allows identification of a particular person. We use both of these types of non-Personal Information to provide the Services.

  1. Disclosures Regarding Personal Information

Personal Information We Collect

We have collected Personal Information from consumers within the last twelve (12) months in the categories shown in the table below. Our listing of these categories does not mean that all categories or the examples listed in each category are collected about everyone who uses the Services or interacts with the Sites or Application. We are providing a full list here to comply with disclosure obligations because some of the information may have been collected about some consumers. We will update this disclosure from time to time as appropriate.

As discussed further below, upon receipt of a verified consumer request for Personal Information, we will investigate and provide an individualized response that details the Personal Information we have collected about that consumer.

Categories of Personal Information
Category Examples
Identifiers Name, alias, postal address, unique personal identifier, online identifier, IP address, email address, account name, or other similar identifiers
Characteristics of protected classifications under CA or federal law Age, race, color, ancestry, national origin, citizenship, religion or creed, marital status, medical condition, physical or mental disability, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran or military status
Commercial information Records of products or services purchased, obtained, or considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies
Internet or other electronic network activity Browsing history, search history, information on a consumer’s interaction with an internet website, application, or advertisement
Geolocation data Physical location or movements
Professional or employment-related information Current or past job history
Inferences drawn from other information Any profile created about a consumer that reflects likely preferences, characteristics, psychological trends, predispositions, behavior, attitudes, intelligence, abilities, or aptitude.

 

Sources of Personal Information We Collect

We collect the categories of Personal Information listed above from various sources. This section lists and describes those sources.

Directly from you. You may be asked to provide Personal Information when you use the Services or request information from us. This information may include:

  • Registration Information. When you sign up for the Services, you are required to provide information such as your name, email address, company, password, and location(s) of investment interest.
  • Profile Information. You may choose to provide us with profile information, such as a photograph, personal bio, list of interests, phone number, physical address, alternate email address, and links to your profile on other social media sites or company website biographies.
  • Additional Information. Additional information that you provide to us, including when you complete certain forms through the Services, post or comment through the Services, upload or submit any material through the Services, request information or contact us with inquiries, or when you use other aspects of our Services, may be collected, and stored.

Indirectly from you. We may automatically collect Personal Information from you when you use the Services or interact with the Sites or Application using tracking technologies or by other passive means. This “passively collected” information helps us to improve our Services and allows us to ensure the Sites and Application work as designed and in a way that meets your expectations. Some examples of the sources of this passively collected Personal Information include:

  • Log Information.  When you access the Services, our servers automatically record information that your browser or mobile device sends whenever you visit the Sites or Application. These server logs may include information such as your web request, IP address, browser type, browser language, your computer operating system, email patterns, your mobile device and mobile operating system, the name of your internet service provider or your mobile carrier, the date and time of your request, and one or more cookies (discussed below) that may uniquely identify your browser.
  • Cookies.  When you visit or access the Services, we may send one or more cookies (small text files containing a string of characters) to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser. We use cookies to improve the quality of the Services by storing user preferences and tracking user trends. Most web browsers accept cookies automatically but can be configured not to do so or to notify the user when a cookie is being sent. If you wish to disable cookies, refer to your browser help menu to learn how to disable cookies. Please note that if you disable cookies, you may not be able to use some customized features available through the Services.
  • Web Beacons.  Web beacons (also known as “pixel tags” or “clear GIFs”) are 1×1 single-pixel graphics that allow us to count the number of users who have visited or accessed the Services and to recognize users by accessing our cookies. We may employ web beacons to facilitate Services administration and navigation, to track the actions of users of the Services, to compile aggregate statistics about Services usage and response rates, and to provide an enhanced online experience for visitors to the Services. We may also include web beacons in HTML-formatted e-mail messages that we send to determine which e-mail messages were opened.

From third parties. We may collect Personal Information about you from third parties, either at your request or for our business purposes. These third-party sources vary depending on your engagement with the Services, but could include the following:

  • Technical Service Providers. We work with third-party service providers in connection with our offerings. Such services may include payment partners, website hosting, marketing, website usage analytics, advertising, and monitoring and maintaining the Services. Many of these categories overlap with the passively collected Personal Information described above. In working with our service providers, we may share Personal Information with them and receive Personal Information back from them so that we may provide the Services to you.
  • Confirmation Partners. We may obtain Personal Information about you from other sources to confirm Personal Information provided by you. For example, our Services include 4 User Levels. Levels 3 and 4 require users to submit information regarding financial status and net worth. We may ask a third-party to confirm, to the extent possible, the information you have provided.
  • Real Estate and Property Ownership Data Providers. We may obtain information about consumers from third-party services and organizations that deliver comprehensive real estate and property ownership data collected. This information is typically collected from publicly available sources such as county property and tax records, which is not Personal Information for purposes of this Privacy Policy or under applicable law. It may also be drawn from multiple listing services (MLS), which typically only provide information about properties and not people. This information is not collected from our users, but instead is collected and used independently or combined with other information to assist our users with achieving their real estate investment goals.

Directly from publicly available sources. We may collect information directly from publicly available sources, such as county property and tax record databases.

 

Use and Disclosure (or “Sale”) of User’s Personal Information You

Our business is all about helping our users makes connections. Connections between buyers and sellers of real estate, connections with local real estate investments clubs, connections between real estate investors and the lenders they need to make those investments a realty. The list of possible connections goes on, but you get the picture. What is important about these connections is that you intentionally use the Services to make them. The Personal Information you provide to us and that we share with other users through the Services directly facilitates those connections. While sharing your Personal Information in this way does not seem like a “sale” to us, out of an abundance of caution and in light of a very broad definition of “sale” in CCPA, we are disclosing this information to you.

Outside of this core function of House of Wholesaling, we use both Personal Information and non-Personal Information to deliver the Services to you, to help improve your interaction with our Sites and Application, and to support our business or commercial purposes. Some examples of ways in which we use or disclose Personal Information include:

  • To identify you when you sign on to your account
  • To create and maintain your account and online profile
  • To respond to your questions or inquiries
  • To ask you to participate in surveys, or otherwise provide feedback
  • To notify you of new investment opportunities
  • To tailor advertisements to you, including using cookies, web beacons, pixels, and other similar technologies
  • To improve, upgrade or enhance our Sites or the Application and our Services
  • To develop new products and services
  • To create de-identified or aggregated lists of information for any the uses stated above
  • To operate our Sites and Application or provide our Services in accordance with our Terms of Use and/or any other agreement you may have with us
  • To carry out other purposes that are disclosed to you and/or to which you consent

The categories of Personal Information that we may have disclosed for a business or commercial purpose within the past 12 months include any of the categories of Personal Information shown in the table at the beginning of this section.

We may disclose your Personal Information to the following categories of other parties for a business or commercial purpose:

  • Other users of the Services
  • Advertising and marketing partners
  • Technical service providers
  • Data analytics providers
  • Subsidiaries and affiliates
  • Affiliated and non-affiliated third parties with whom we have business relationships, such as title companies or insurance agencies, so that they may provide products and services in which our users may be interested
  • Entities involved in the sale or purchase of all or a portion of our business

Additionally, we will cooperate with government and law enforcement officials or private parties to enforce and comply with the law. In doing so, we may disclose information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate: (i) to respond to claims or legal processes (including subpoenas or other lawful government request for data); (ii) to protect our property, rights and safety and the property, rights and safety of a third party or the public in general; (iii) to detect or prevent fraud or security concerns; and (iv) to stop activity that we consider illegal, unethical or legally actionable.

De-Identified and Aggregated Information

We may use information, including Personal Information, we have collected about you to create de-identified and/or aggregated data sets, such as de-identified demographic information, aggregated trends, reports, or statistics about how users interact with the Sites and Application and from what sorts of devices. De-identified and aggregated information is used for a variety of functions, including the measurement of visitors’ interest in and use of various portions or features of the Sites and Application or the Services we offer. Such de-identified and aggregated information does not identify you individually and is, therefore, not Personal Information for purposes of this Privacy Policy. We may use and disclose such de-identified or aggregated information in several ways, including to improve the Services, for our own internal business purposes, and any other legally permissible purpose.

 

 

 

  1. Consumer Rights Regarding Personal Information

Right to Know the Personal Information Collected or Disclosed

When you request that we provide you with the information we collect or disclose we will provide you with an individualized response about our collection and use of your Personal Information over the past 12 months. That response will include:

  • Specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you
  • The categories of Personal Information we have collected (for reference see the table above for categories and examples of Personal Information that we may collect)
  • The sources from which we have collected your Personal Information
  • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling Personal Information
  • The categories of third parties to whom we have disclosed or sold Personal Information
  • Whether we have disclosed or sold your Personal Information for a business or commercial purpose.

You may only exercise this right twice within a 12-month period.

Right to Request Deletion of Personal Information

When you request that we delete your Personal Information, we will delete Personal Information we maintain about you from our records as of the date of your request subject to certain limitations. We will also request that any service providers that we know maintain your data on our behalf also delete your Personal Information. In some cases, deletion may be accomplished through de-identification of the information.

Additionally, we cannot control whether other users of our Services have stored a copy of or Personal Information from the profile you created that would allow them to contact you even after we have deleted the Personal Information from our records.

Exercising Your Right to Know or Delete

To exercise the right to know and deletion described above please initiate a verifiable consumer request through the web portal link provided below in Contact Us or by calling 844-924-6950. You may also contact us through the chat feature on this Site or via email at the address below in this Privacy Policy and our customer service representatives will direct you to the appropriate web portal link.

If you have any questions about your right to know or deletion described above, you may contact us via the contact information contained below in this Privacy Policy.

We cannot respond to your right to know or deletion if we cannot verify your identity or the authority of your agent to make the request and confirm that the Personal Information, we maintain relates to you. When you make a request, we will verify your identity by matching two or three data points that you provide with data points that we maintain and have determined to be reliable for the purposes of verification (e.g., telephone number and email address).

You must also describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it. If we have questions regarding your request, you must make an effort to respond to our inquiries. If we do not understand your request, we may not be able to comply.

Response Timing and Format. Where possible, we will respond to a verified right to know or delete request within 45 days of receipt. If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and the need for an extension.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verified consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information to another entity.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Authorized Agents

You may designate an authorized agent to make requests on your behalf. We will require verification that you did in fact give that person your authorization. Unless the law requires otherwise, your authorized agent must provide contact details for you. We will contact you to confirm that you authorized the agent to act on your behalf. Once you confirm, we will promptly respond to the rights request.

Right to Opt-Out of Sale of Personal Information

As discussed above, we share your Personal Information for various reasons, including with other investors and asset-based lenders to facilitate your real estate investment goals; with our technical service providers to improve our ability to serve you; with our advertising partners to keep you aware of the Services; and with affiliated and non-affiliated third parties so that they may provide products and services in which our users may be interested. Because each of these types of disclosures may be classified as “sales” under CCPA we are giving all consumers the right to direct us not to disclose Personal Information for these or any other purpose (unless permitted by law after receiving an opt-out request).

To tell us you want to opt-out of the disclosure of your Personal Information, you may click on the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” link below or on the homepage of each of the Sites and fill out the accessed form. You may also call us at 844-924-6950 to opt-out. If you contact us through the chat feature on this Site or via email at the address below in this Privacy Policy to opt-out our customer service representatives will direct, you to the appropriate web portal link.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of the rights listed in this section. Specifically, we will not:

  • Deny you Services, except to the extent that not having Personal Information prevents us from providing the Services.
  • Provide you a different level or quality of Services, except to the extent that not having Personal Information limits our ability to provide the Services.
  • Charge or suggest that we will charge you different prices or rates for the Services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
