Sale of Personal Information

Although we do not expressly sell your personal information, we share your personal information with third party advertisers through the use of cookies and other automatic forms of data collection. In exchange, we (i) are able to provide more targeted marketing and advertising, which results in increased sales of our products and services; (ii) understand if the Website or other parts of the Platform are functioning as intended, enabling us to refine the Website or other parts of the Platform, accordingly, potentially resulting in increased sales of products and services; and (iii) better understand the effectiveness of our marketing and advertising campaigns. For more information on how we use cookies, please see our Cookie Notice.

The VCDPA defines “selling,” in part, as releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating a consumer’s personal information to a third party for monetary or “other valuable consideration.”  Under this broad definition, the sharing of personal information through the use of certain cookies could be interpreted as a “sale” of personal information.  Therefore, out of an abundance of caution, we provide you with the right to opt-out of the “sale” of your personal information even though such “sale” relates only to the use of certain cookies on our site. 

To that end, you have the right to opt out of the “sale” of your personal information by following the instructions on the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” page or by contacting us at customerservice@southerntrusthomeservices.com.
