3. Property Inquiries and Real Estate Leads

When you submit an inquiry regarding a property, development, investment opportunity, or real estate service, we may use the information you provide to respond to your request and assist with your property search.

Where reasonably necessary, information may be shared with parties involved in the relevant property or transaction, including developers, property owners, authorized representatives, attorneys, notaries, financial institutions, mortgage providers, contractors, property managers, or other service providers.

Information will only be shared where reasonably necessary to respond to your request, provide requested services, facilitate a potential transaction, satisfy a contractual obligation, or otherwise operate our business lawfully.

Submitting an inquiry does not guarantee the availability, price, financing, reservation, purchase, or delivery of any property.

4. Property Information Provided Through Our Website

Property information displayed or communicated through North Coast Elite Realty may originate from property owners, developers, builders, representatives, listing partners, or other third parties.

Pricing, availability, floor plans, specifications, amenities, construction schedules, payment plans, financing options, completion dates, and other property information may change without notice.

Personal information submitted through a property inquiry may therefore be used to confirm current information with the appropriate property representative.

This Privacy Policy does not constitute a representation or guarantee regarding any property, investment, developer, builder, or transaction.

5. Vacation Rental and Property Management Services

If you engage North Coast Elite Realty for vacation rental management, marketing, listing management, or related services, we may collect and process information concerning:

• Property details

• Ownership or authorized-management information

• Rental listings

• Booking information

• Availability

• Pricing

• Revenue-related information

• Guest communications where applicable

• Marketing information

• Photographs and property content

• Booking platform information

• Information reasonably required to provide the agreed services

We may share relevant information with booking platforms, technology providers, payment providers, contractors, marketing providers, or other third parties where reasonably necessary to provide these services.

6. Payments and Financial Information

Certain payments may be processed through independent third-party payment processors or financial institutions.

Where a third-party processor is used, payment card and banking information may be transmitted directly to that provider rather than stored by North Coast Elite Realty.

Third-party payment providers process information according to their own terms, privacy policies, security standards, and legal obligations.

North Coast Elite Realty is not responsible for the independent privacy or security practices of third-party payment processors, except to the extent responsibility cannot legally be excluded.

7. Marketing and Communications

When you contact North Coast Elite Realty or submit a property inquiry, we may communicate with you regarding that specific request.

Where permitted by applicable law and, where required, with your consent, we may also send information concerning relevant properties, developments, services, or real estate opportunities.

Submitting a property inquiry or contacting North Coast Elite Realty allows us to respond to your request. It does not automatically constitute consent to receive unrelated ongoing promotional communications where separate consent is required by law.

You may opt out of promotional communications at any time by following an available unsubscribe method or contacting us directly.

We may still send non-promotional communications that are reasonably necessary to respond to an active inquiry, administer an existing service, complete a transaction, or comply with legal obligations.

• Operate website functionality

• Remember preferences

• Measure traffic and performance

• Improve user experience

Where required by applicable law, we will request consent before using non-essential cookies or similar tracking technologies.

You may be able to manage cookies through your browser or applicable cookie controls. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

9. Third-Party Platforms and Service Providers

However, no website, internet transmission, email, messaging service, electronic database, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You provide information electronically with an understanding that internet-based communications carry inherent security risks.

North Coast Elite Realty operates in the Dominican Republic and may serve buyers, investors, property owners, and clients located internationally.

Our technology providers and service providers may also operate in different countries.

As a result, information may be processed, transferred, or stored outside the country in which you reside.

Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, we will take reasonable steps to use appropriate protections.

14. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your country or jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information.

These may include the right to request:

• Access to your personal information

• Correction of inaccurate information

• Deletion of certain information

• Restriction of certain processing

• Withdrawal of consent where processing relies on consent

• Information regarding how your data is processed

• Objection to certain marketing communications

These rights are subject to applicable law and may not apply in every circumstance.

We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

We may also retain information where necessary to comply with legal obligations, protect legitimate business interests, maintain transaction records, prevent fraud, resolve disputes, or establish or defend legal claims.

15. Children's Privacy

Our website and services are intended for adults seeking real estate, investment, vacation rental management, or related property services.

We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children for marketing purposes.

If we become aware that personal information from a child has been collected in circumstances where parental or legal authorization is required, we may take appropriate steps to delete or otherwise address the information.

16. External Websites and Links

Our website may contain links to websites, booking platforms, developer websites, social media platforms, payment services, or other third-party resources.

Once you leave our website, the collection and processing of your information may be governed by the privacy practices of that third party.

North Coast Elite Realty is not responsible for the content, availability, security, or privacy practices of independent third-party websites or services.

We encourage users to review the privacy policies of third-party services before providing personal information.

17. Business Transfers

If North Coast Elite Realty undergoes a merger, restructuring, acquisition, sale, transfer of assets, or other business transaction, information maintained by the business may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

18. Legal Requirements and Protection of Rights

We may preserve or disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, lawful requests, or legal proceedings.

We may also use or preserve information where reasonably necessary to investigate fraud, enforce agreements, protect our legal rights, protect the security of our systems, or protect the rights and safety of others.

19. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our website, services, business practices, technology, or applicable requirements.

The revised policy will be posted on this website and the Last Updated date will be changed accordingly.

Continued use of our website after an update is subject to the version of the Privacy Policy then in effect, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
