This Privacy Policy explains how McHenryForSale (“we,” “us,” or “our”), the real estate website of Justin Franzke, Realtor with eXp Realty, collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit mchenryforsale.com or contact us.

Information we collect

When you fill out a form on this site, we collect the information you choose to give us, such as your name, email address, phone number, property address, and your message.

Like most websites, our site and hosting provider may also collect basic technical information automatically, such as your browser type, device type, IP address, and the pages you visit. Our site may use cookies to keep it working properly and to understand how visitors use it.

How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • Respond to your questions and requests
  • Schedule and confirm appointments and showings
  • Send you text messages, if you have opted in (see SMS section below)
  • Send you local real estate updates you have asked for
  • Improve our website
  • Meet our legal and brokerage obligations

SMS / text messaging

If you check the SMS consent box on one of our forms, you agree to receive text messages from McHenryForSale about your inquiry, appointments, and local real estate updates. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP, and reply HELP for help.

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

We do not sell or share your SMS opt-in data or personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information.

We only share information in these limited cases:

  • With service providers that help us run this website and our business (such as website hosting and email), only as needed to provide those services
  • With eXp Realty, our brokerage, when required for a real estate transaction or by brokerage and licensing rules
  • When required by law, court order, or to protect our rights or the safety of others

SMS opt-in data and consent are never shared with third parties, as stated in the SMS section above.

Third-party links

Our site links to other websites, including our property search site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those websites. Please review their privacy policies.

Data security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information. However, no website or method of transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data retention

We keep your information only as long as needed to respond to you, provide our services, and meet legal and brokerage record-keeping requirements.

Children’s privacy

This website is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.

Your choices

You can ask us to update or delete your information, or stop contacting you, at any time by emailing justin@mchenryforsale.com or calling 847-366-7314. To stop text messages, reply STOP to any message.
