Some eXp Sites may allow you to set up accounts to participate in our Services and online communities (your “User Account”). Any Personal Information you provide to set up a User Account may be used in accordance with this Privacy Notice.

Choices with Your Personal Information

Whether you submit any Personal Information to us is entirely up to you. You are under no obligation to provide Personal Information, and you may access the eXp Sites and Services without submitting any Personal Information. However, in the event your Personal Information is essential for us to provide certain products or services to you, we will be unable to provide you with those products or services if you choose to withhold the requested Personal Information. For example, if you request information about a property but do not provide a means of contact, we will be unable to fulfill your request.

You may choose to prevent us from disclosing or using your Personal Information under certain circumstances (“Opt Out”). You may Opt Out of any disclosure or use of your Personal Information for purposes for which you originally consented by notifying us by one of the methods at the end of this Privacy Notice, or by following the procedures set forth in an electronic communication from us, if applicable. We will undertake reasonable efforts to notify third parties with whom we have shared your Personal Information as permitted under this Privacy Notice of your election to Opt Out. If you do not Opt Out, we may continue to collect, use, and disclose your Personal Information as set forth in this Privacy Notice. There are some uses from which you cannot Opt Out, such as to provide products or services that you have requested from us.

“Do Not Track” Signals

Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to websites and online services you visit. There is no consensus among industry participants as to what “Do Not Track” means in this context. Like many websites and online services, eXp currently does not alter its practices when it receives a “Do Not Track” signal from a visitor’s browser. We do not monitor or recognize “Do Not Track” mechanisms, settings, and/or signals.

You also have the right to request that we delete any Personal Information we have collected from you. Once we verify your request, we will delete any Personal Information from our records, unless retaining your Personal Information is necessary for us to:

  • complete the transaction for which we have collected the Personal Information, provide you with the Services, or as reasonably anticipated in the context of our business relationship;
  • offer employment or provide employment benefits;
  • detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for that activity;
  • debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality; 
  • exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise that consumer’s right of free speech, or exercise another right provided for by law;
  • comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et seq.);
  • to enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with your reasonable expectations based on your relationship with us;
  • comply with a legal obligation; or 
  • other internal and lawful uses of your Personal Information that are compatible with the context in which you provided your Personal Information.

We will confirm receipt of right to know and deletion requests within ten (10) business days of receiving such requests and will provide information as to how we will process such requests. We will respond to verified requests within forty-five (45) days of receipt. Please note that we are only required to respond to each website visitor twice per twelve (12) month period.

We are not required to: (1) retain any Personal Information about you that was collected for a single one-time transaction if, in the ordinary course of business, that information about you is not retained; or (2) reidentify or otherwise link any data that, in the ordinary course of business, is not maintained in a manner that would be considered Personal Information.
