SHARING OF INFORMATION

We share personal information with other users of the Services. For example, if you use our Services to publish content, fill form, post comments or send private notes, certain information about you will be visible to others, such as your name, photo, bio, other account information you may provide, and information about your activities on our Services (e.g., your followers and who you follow, recent posts, likes, highlights, and responses).

We share personal information with service providers, and consultants that need access to personal information in order to perform services for us, such as companies that assist us with web hosting, storage, and other infrastructure, analytics, payment processing, fraud prevention and security, customer service, communications, and marketing.

We share your personal information to real estate professionals (agents, realtor, contractors, agency, etc) who needs them to continue service with you. Thus, iPropty is not in control of how these real estate professionals use this information. So, iPropty is exempted from any misuse of these information or transactions performed in whatever way.

We may disclose personal information if we believe that disclosure is in accordance with, or required by, any applicable law or legal process, including lawful requests by public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. If we are going to disclose your personal information in response to legal process, we will give you notice so you can challenge it (for example by seeking court intervention), unless we are prohibited by law or believe doing so may endanger others or cause illegal conduct.

We will object to legal requests for information about users of our Services that we believe are improper.

We may share personal information if we believe that your actions are inconsistent with our user agreements or policies, if we believe that you have violated the law, or if we believe it is necessary to protect the rights, property, and safety of IPropty, our users, the public, or others.

We share personal information with our lawyers and other professional advisors where necessary to obtain advice or otherwise protect and manage our business interests.

We may share personal information in connection with, or during negotiations concerning, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business by another company.

Personal information is shared between and among iPropty and our current and future parents, affiliates, and subsidiaries and other companies under common control and ownership.

We share personal information with your consent or at your direction.

We also share aggregated or de-identified information that cannot reasonably be used to identify you.

THIRD-PARTY EMBEDS

iPropty does not host some of the content and properties displayed on our Services. Users have the ability to post content that is actually hosted by a third party, but is embedded in our pages (an “Embed”).

When you interact with an Embed, it can send information about your interaction to the hosting third party just as if you were visiting the third party’s site directly.

For example, when you load a iPropty post or property page with a YouTube video Embed and watch the video, YouTube receives information about your activity, such as your IP address and how much of the video you watch. IPropty does not control what information third parties collect through Embeds or what they do with the information.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to information collected through Embeds. The privacy policy belonging to the third party hosting the Embed applies to any information the Embed collects, and we recommend you review that policy before interacting with the Embed.

iPropty is headquartered in Nigeria, and we have operations and service providers in Nigeria and other countries.

Therefore, we and our service providers may transfer your personal information to, or store or access it in, jurisdictions that may not provide levels of data protection that are equivalent to those of your home jurisdiction.

We will take steps to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it.
