This Privacy Policy applies to information Open House Property Management collects through the Services, as well as other information provided to us online or offline by third parties, when we associate that information with customers or users of the Services; however, it does not apply to information collected from our employees, contractors, or vendors. We may share the information we collect from you, including Personal Information, with other entities in our company group, including our parent company and its affiliates, some of which are headquartered outside of the United States. It also does not apply to information that you ask us to share with third parties or that is collected by certain other third parties whose software or services are featured or included in the Services (as further described below). This Privacy Policy does not amend any lease, lease application, or other similar contractual agreement between you and Open House Property Management.
This Privacy Policy describes, among other things:
- Personal and other information we collect about you;
- How we use your information;
- How we may share your information with third parties; and
- Your choices regarding the personal information we collect about you.
1. Consent
By accessing or using the Services, you consent to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use the Services. Information gathered through the Services may be transferred, used, and stored in the United States or in other countries where our service providers or we are located. If you use the Services, you agree to the transfer, use, and storage of your Personal Information (as defined below) in those countries. The data protection and other laws of the United States and other countries might not be as comprehensive as those in your country. You agree that all transactions relating to the Services or Open House Property Management are deemed to occur in the United States, where our servers are located.
2. Collection of Your Personal and Other Information
When you register for or use our Services, we collect Personal Information. By “Personal Information” we mean information that can identify or reasonably be linked to an individual, such as:
- Names;
- Personal or business addresses;
- Email addresses;
- Phone numbers;
- Social Security numbers;
- Government-issued identification numbers;
- Financial account information; and
- Information contained in any image or message you submit to us.
You may choose not to provide Personal Information, but this may prevent you from receiving certain features of the Services. For example, if you do not provide us with the information we need to perform a credit check, you will not be able to rent a property from us.
We also collect non-Personal Information relating to the Services, that is, information that does not personally identify an individual. The non-Personal Information we collect includes how you interact with the Services, information generally collected or “logged” by Internet websites or Internet services when accessed or used by users, and information about your web browser or device accessing or using the Services.
Examples of the non-Personal Information we may collect are:
- The pages of our website that you viewed during a visit;
- What information, content or advertisements you view or interact with using the Services;
- Language preferences;
- The city and state in which you are located (but not your precise geographic location); and
- Unique identifiers that are not connected and cannot reasonably be connected to your identity.
We will not use non-Personal Information to try to identify you, and if we associate any non-Personal Information with information that personally identifies you, then we will treat it as Personal Information. As discussed in more detail below, we sometimes use cookies and other automatic information gathering technologies to gather Personal Information and non-Personal Information.
Information collected by the Services may be collected by us or one of the third parties we utilize in providing the Services (as further described below).
3. Use of Your Information
We may use the information we collect to:
- Assist us in providing, maintaining, and protecting the Services;
- Set up, maintain, and protect accounts to use the Services;
- Improve our online operations;
- Process transactions;
- Provide customer service;
- Communicate with you, such as provide you with account- or transaction-related communications, or other communications relating to the Services;
- Perform research and analysis aimed at improving our products and services and developing new products or services; and
- Manage and maintain the systems that provide the Services.
We will note share mobile phone numbers with third parties for marketing or promotional purposes.
4. Disclosure of Your Information
We may disclose your Personal Information to third parties as described below.
We may disclose Personal Information to provide the Services, or when you authorize or instruct us to do so, for example, when you use the Services to submit content or profile information. We may also disclose Personal Information and non-Personal Information to Service Providers. By “Service Providers” we mean companies, agents, contractors, service providers, or others engaged to perform functions on our behalf (such as processing of payments, provision of data storage, hosting of our website, marketing of our products and services, and conducting audits). When we use a Service Provider, we require that the Service Provider use and disclose the Personal Information received from us only to provide their services to us or as required by applicable law.
We may also disclose Personal Information and non-Personal Information to Online Tool Providers. By “Online Tool Provider” we mean a licensor of software that we include in, or use with, the Services, including an API or SDK, that provides a specialized function or service to us and that requires the transmission of Personal Information and/or non-Personal Information to the Online Tool Provider. Online Tool Providers may have the right to use Personal Information and non-Personal Information about you for their own business purposes. Use and disclosure of Personal Information and non-Personal Information by an Online Tool Provider is described in its privacy policy. See Section 5 below for some of the key Online Tool Providers we use.
We may also disclose your Personal Information to third parties when we believe, in good faith and in our sole discretion, that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) enforce or apply the terms and conditions of the Services, including investigation of potential violations thereof; (b) comply with legal or regulatory requirements or an enforceable governmental request; (c) protect the rights, property or safety of us, our users or other third parties; (d) submit insurance claims, cooperate with insurance investigations (including but not limited to providing your Personal Information to insurance adjusters investigating claims related to a property you are renting, or other claims arising out of properties we manage), and fulfill insurance subrogation requirements; (e) prevent a crime or protect national security; or (f) detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
Additionally, if you are a tenant renting a property we manage, or are an individual applying to rent a property we manage, we may disclose your Personal Information in the following ways: (i) to third party vendors who assist us with property maintenance and repair services, so that such vendors may communicate with you to arrange for access to the property they will be repairing/maintaining; (ii) to the owner of the property you are renting and on whose behalf we are managing the property; and (iii) to homeowners’ organizations (HOAs) or other similar entities that help to govern the community in which the property you are renting is located.
Finally, we reserve the right to transfer information (including your Personal Information) to a third party in the event of a sale, merger, or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of our company relating to the Services, or in the unlikely event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, or receivership of our business. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you of such transfer, for example, via email or by posting notice on our website.
Lastly, we may also disclose non-Personal Information, aggregated with information about our other users, to our clients, business partners, merchants, advertisers, investors, potential buyers and other third parties if we deem such disclosure, in our sole discretion, to have sound business reasons or justifications.
5. Cookies and Automatic Information Gathering Technologies
Every time you use the Services (e.g., access a Service webpage), we collect Personal Information and non-Personal Information (discussed above in Section 2) regarding that use. For example, to improve our Services, we collect how, when, and which parts of the Services or their features you use. Also, we may use your device’s unique identifier (UDID) or other unique identifiers to assist us in collecting and analyzing this data.
To assist us in collecting and storing this non-Personal Information, we may employ a variety of technologies, including “Cookies,” local browser storage, and “web beacons,” “pixels,” or “tags.” A “Cookie” is a small amount of data a website operator, or a third party whose content is embedded in that website, may store in your web browser and that the website operator or, as applicable, the third party, can access when you visit the website. A web beacon, pixel or tag is a small, usually-transparent image placed on a web page that allows the operator of that image, which may be the operator of the website you visit or a third party, to read or write a Cookie.
Your operating system and web browser may allow you to erase information stored in Cookies and local browser storage. But if you do so, you may be forced to login to the Services again, and you may lose some preferences or settings. You may also be able to set your browser to refuse all website storage or to indicate when it is permitted, but some features of our Services may not function properly without it. We may use Cookies to keep you logged in, save your preferences for the Services, and to collect information about how you use our Services.
More information about managing Cookies is available here. To learn how to manage privacy and storage settings for your local browser storage, please refer to the end user documentation for your browser.
An Online Tool Provider may collect information automatically, in which case Personal Information and non-Personal Information it receives are subject to the Online Tool Provider’s privacy policy. Some Online Tool Providers may allow you to opt out of certain collection and/or uses of your information. You can read more here:

6. Transparency and Choice; Do Not Track Signals
You may request access to your Personal Information by sending an email to contact@openhouse-group.com. We will try to locate and provide you with your Personal Information and give you the opportunity to correct this data, if it is inaccurate, or to delete it, at your request. But, in either case, we may need to retain it for legal reasons or for legitimate business purposes. You may also remove any content that you post to the Services using the deletion or removal options within the Services. However, we (and you) are not able to control information that you have already shared with other users or made available to third parties through the Services.
If you need further assistance with removing any content you posted through the Services, you can email us at contact@openhouse-group.com. Removal of your posted content may not ensure complete or comprehensive removal from our computer systems.
We ask individual users to identify themselves and the information requested to be accessed, corrected, or removed before processing such requests, and we may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, would be extremely impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backups), or relate to information that is not associated with your Personal Information. In any case, where we provide information access and correction, we perform this service free of charge, except if doing so would require a disproportionate effort. We may also require you to verify your identity to our satisfaction before providing you with access to Personal Information.
Please be aware that if you request us to delete your Personal Information, you may not be able to continue to use the Services. Also, even if you request that we delete your Personal Information, we may need to retain certain information for legal reasons, for our legitimate business purposes, or to satisfy our legal, audit and/or dispute resolution requirements.
We may use third-party service providers that collect information for interest-based advertising purposes (advertisements that are tailored to your likely interests, based on categories in which you have shown an interest). To learn more about these third parties and the choices they offer users, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s choices page or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s choices page. If you are reading this Privacy Policy from a mobile device, you can learn more about the DAA's mobile choices program here.
We support the development and implementation of a standard "do not track" browser feature that provides customers with control over the collection and use of information about their web-browsing activities. Once a standardized "do not track" feature is released, we intend to adhere to the browser settings accordingly.
You can opt out of receiving marketing e-mails from us by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link in the e-mails. Please note that it may take up to ten (10) business days for your opt-out request to be processed. Also, even if you opt out of marketing e-mails, we may continue to send you certain account-related e-mails, such as notices about your account and confirmations of transactions you have requested, and other necessary property management-related emails, such as notices related to winterization of pipes or replacement of HVAC filters.
7. Residents of Canada
If you have an objection to the use of your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy, you may file a complaint by sending an email to contact@openhouse-group.com. We will attempt to accommodate your objection or complaint, but you understand that, to the extent you object to our processing of Personal Information that is necessary for us to provide the Services to you, certain features and functionalities of the Services may no longer be available to you. Nothing in this Privacy Policy prejudices your rights to file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, and/or with any other applicable data protection authorities.
8. Residents of Nevada
We do not sell your Personal Information. However, you may contact us at contact@openhouse-group.com with questions.
9. Children
The Services are not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from users under 18 years of age. We do not authorize users under 18 years of age to use the Services.
To provide certain services we offer, we may need to collect Personal Information about children under the age of 18 in both online and offline contexts from a child’s parent or legal guardian. To the extent that you are providing such information, you represent and warrant that you are the parent or guardian of the minor whose Personal Information you are providing and that you have all the necessary permissions and legal abilities to do so. If we learn that someone under 18 has provided Personal Information through the Services, we will use reasonable efforts to remove that information from our databases. If you are a parent or legal guardian and have questions regarding Open House Property Management’s data collection practices, please contact us at contact@openhouse-group.com.
10. Information Security
We utilize reasonable information security measures to safeguard your Personal Information against unauthorized access, modification, or destruction. For example, we utilize Secure Socket Layer (SSL), Transport Layer Security (TLS), or similar encryption technology when sensitive data is transmitted over the Internet, and use firewalls to help prevent external access into our network. However, no data transmission over the Internet and no method of data storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its security.
We restrict access to Personal Information in our possession to our employees, Service Providers, and Online Tool Providers who need to know that information in order to operate, develop, improve or support our Services.
11. Third Party Websites
Please note that the Services may link or integrate with third-party sites, services or apps. While we retain responsibility for the privacy and security of information we collect from you, we are not responsible for the privacy or security policies or practices or the content of such third parties. Accordingly, we encourage you to review the privacy and security policies and terms of service of those third parties so that you understand how they collect, use, share and protect your information.
12. Changes to this Policy
We may modify or update this Privacy Policy periodically with or without prior notice by posting the updated policy on this page. You can always check the “Last Updated” date at the top of this document to see when the Privacy Policy was last changed. If we make any material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will notify you by reasonable means, which may be by e-mail or posting a notice of the changes on our website prior to the changes becoming effective. We encourage you to check this Privacy Policy from time to time. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY, YOU MUST STOP USING THE SERVICES AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF SUCH CHANGES (WHICH IS THE “LAST UPDATED” DATE OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY).

Privacy Notice for California Residents
This Privacy Notice for California Residents (the “Notice”) supplements the information contained in our Privacy Policy and applies only if you reside in the State of California (you are a “California Consumer”).

Additionally, in the past twelve (12) months, Open House Property Management has collected the following categories of Sensitive Personal Information from California residents:
Social Security, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport numbers.
2. Use of Personal Information
Open House Property Management may use or disclose the Personal Information we collect for one or more of the following “Business Purpose(s):”
- To fulfill or meet the reason you provided the information
- To provide our website, online services,
- To respond to law enforcement requests and as required by applicable law, court order, or governmental regulations
- To respond to your requests under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”), as amended
- For any other purpose described to you when we collect your Personal Information; and

Additionally, Open House Property Management will only use or disclose the Sensitive Personal Information we collect for one or more of the following “Business Purpose(s):”
- Complete the transaction for which we collected your Personal Information, provide goods or services that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you;

- To respond to law enforcement requests and as required by applicable law, court order, or governmental regulations;
- To respond to your requests under the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”), as amended; or

Unless we notify you otherwise, we will not collect additional categories of Personal Information, nor use the Personal Information we collect for any other materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes.
3. Retention of Personal Information
We retain each category of your Personal Information for no longer than is reasonably necessary for one or more Business Purposes, subject to your right to request we delete your Personal Information. Due to the nature of the services, it is not possible to predict the length of time that we intend to retain your Personal Information. Instead, we use the following criteria to determine whether it remains reasonably necessary to retain your Personal Information for one or more disclosed Business Purpose(s):
- The generally accepted best practices in our industry;
- Whether not there is a retention period required by statute or regulations;
- The pendency of any actual or threatened litigation for which we are required to preserve the information; and
- The pendency of applicable statutes of limitations for potential legal claims.
When we determine that it is no longer reasonably necessary to retain your Personal Information for one or more disclosed Business Purpose(s) based on the above criteria, we will delete your Personal Information.
4. Disclosure of Personal Information
Open House Property Management may disclose Personal Information to our “service providers”, to our “contractors”, and to “third parties” (each as defined by the CCPA) for a Business Purpose. When we disclose Personal Information for a Business Purpose, we enter into an agreement with the receiving party that describes the purpose for sharing the Personal Information, and that requires the receiving party to keep that Personal Information confidential. In the case of disclosures to our “service providers,” our “service providers” are obligated not to use the Personal Information for any purpose other than performing the services according to their agreement with us. In the case of our “contractors”, our “contractors’ are obligated not to use the Personal Information for any purpose unrelated to the business purpose for which we’ve engaged them.
We may disclose your Personal Information with the following categories of entities: “service providers”, “contractors”, homeowners’ organizations (HOAs) or other similar organizations, and property owners.
We disclose Personal Information to HOAs or other similar organizations when we are required to by covenants, conditions, and restrictions (“CC&Rs”) or other similar legally enforceable community rules and requirements. For example, we may disclose your name and/or contact information to an HOA when a community’s CC&Rs require that we do so.
We may, when providing property management services for a property we do not own, serve as a “service provider” to the owner of that property. We may disclose your Personal Information to such property owners while providing a service on their behalf.
In the past twelve (12) months, Open House Property Management has not Sold or Shared any Personal Information about its California Consumers.
5. Your Rights and Choices

- Comply with a legal obligation.
You further have the right to request that we correct any of your Personal Information that is inaccurate by submitting a Verifiable Request. We will correct any inaccurate Personal Information pursuant to your request to the extent possible using commercially reasonable efforts. We may deny your correction request if the Personal Information is accurate.

If you choose to exercise a privacy right under the CCPA, you have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment.

You can choose to have this information delivered to you by postal mail, electronically. We will try to respond to your verified request within forty-five (45) days of receipt, but if we require more time (up to another forty-five (45) days) we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
