Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

VDI Realty ("we," "us," "our"), brokered by Realty Connect, operates www.vdirealty.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you browse our listings, post a property, request our concierge service, or contact us — and how we use and protect it.

By using this website, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

2. Information we collect

Information you provide directly:

• Contact forms — name, email address, phone number, and your message when you reach out about buying, selling, or general questions.
• FSBO listings — property details, photos, and your contact information when you post a for-sale-by-owner listing.
• Concierge requests — name, email, phone, poster type, and listing links when you ask us to build a listing for you.
• Commercial valuation requests — property and contact details submitted through our commercial page.
• Text-a-ZIP inquiries — your phone number and the ZIP code you text to receive matching listings.

Information collected automatically:

• Basic usage data such as pages visited, browser type, and approximate location, collected through standard web analytics and cookies.

We do not ask for, and you should not send us, sensitive information such as Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, or government IDs through this website.

3. How we use your information

• To respond to your inquiries and provide the services you request.
• To publish and moderate property listings you submit.
• To send listing matches by text message when you text us a ZIP code.
• To improve our website, listings, and services.
• To comply with legal obligations and protect against misuse or fraud.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Text messaging

If you text a ZIP code to our number, we use your phone number only to reply with matching listings and to record the inquiry. Texting YES opts you in to listing alerts; texting STOP opts you out at any time (you can still text a ZIP for a one-time reply while opted out). Message and data rates may apply.

5. Sharing your information

We share information only as needed to operate this site:

• Service providers — hosting, email delivery, and text-messaging providers that help us run the website, bound by confidentiality obligations.
• Legal requirements — when required by law, court order, or to protect our rights, users, or the public.
• Listing publication — information you choose to include in a public listing (property details, photos, and the contact method you select) is visible to anyone who views the listing.

6. Cookies and analytics

We use basic cookies and similar technologies to keep the site working (for example, remembering preferences) and to understand aggregate usage. You can disable cookies in your browser settings; some site features may not work as expected without them.

7. Data security and retention

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect your information. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described here, then delete or anonymize it.

8. Your rights

You may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, subject to legal retention requirements. To make a request, contact us at sales@vdirealty.com.

9. Children's privacy

This website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

10. Third-party links

Our site may link to third-party websites (for example, listing links you submit through our concierge service). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent revision, and continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
