Information that We Collect

The information that we learn from and about you helps us personalize and improve your experience and improve the rentals, products, and services that we (or a third-party with whom we have a relationship) provide you.  Although most personal information is collected by third-party websites that are beyond our control, you may provide personal information to us (which we may collect and save) when you fill out a form on our website or communicate with us.  That information may include, among other things, your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, date of birth, social security number, home demographics, and pet ownership.  In addition, we may collect and save information about IP addresses, browsers, and pages viewed. The information that we collect may fall into the following categories:

Using, Sharing, or Disclosing Information

We use personal information to provide you with information on the Avenue5 rentals, products, and services in which you have expressed an interest and on other rentals, products or services in which we believe you may have an interest.  We use personal information for a variety of purposes, including to:

We generally do not disclose your personal information except in the following situations:

Use of Cookies

Cookies are information that we transfer to your device so that our systems recognize your device.  Cookies make it easier for us to provide rentals, products, and services that are tailored to you.  We use cookies to, among other things, understand and save user’s preferences for future visits, keep track of advertisements, assess the technical function of our website, and compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interactions to offer better site experiences.

We may use persistent tracking cookies on our website which are cookies that stay in your web browser between visits.  These cookies can also be used to show us which sites you have visited before entering our website and which websites you may go to if you leave.
Our website may use cookies which allow us or third parties to advertise our rentals, goods, or services on websites that you access after you have visited our website.  You may also see advertisements from us if other websites that you visit, such as google.com, use cookies to capture that you have been on our website. 

Most browsers and many add-ons permit you to prevent your browser from accepting cookies or to be notified when you receive a new cookie.  If you disable cookies, some of the features that improve your site experience may not be available and some aspects of our website may not function properly.  Because cookies allow you to take full advantage of Avenue5’s websites, we recommend that you leave cookies turned on while using Avenue5’s websites.

Do Not Track Signals

Your device may be able to send web browser signals known as “Do Not Track” signals indicating your desire to disable tracking on a website.  We do not respond to DNT signals, so we may not be aware of, or may be unable to respond to, such signals.

Third-Party Links

We may include or offer products or services of third-party vendors or we may utilize products or services of third-party vendors in our providing of rentals, products, and services to you.  Sometimes, those products or services are obtained from a third-party’s website, in which case, the third-party websites will have separate and independent privacy policies.  We are not responsible for those third-party websites, the third party’s privacy policies, or the actions of those third parties.

Security

We employ reasonable and current security methods to prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and maintain correct use of information.  When you voluntarily disclose personal information online, that information can be collected and used by others.  No data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be secure.  As a result, while we try to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

We limit access to personal information to employees who we believe reasonably need to receive such information to provide rentals, goods, or services or to complete their jobs.  We take the precautions that we believe are reasonable to protect the security of your personal information, including advising employees to be aware of the sensitivity of the personal information and to be careful to protect the information from improper access by third parties.

Business Transitions

If Avenue5 goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition, or sale, your personal information will likely be part of the assets transferred.  By using the website and providing your personal information, you consent to this transfer.

Children under 13

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.  No part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13.  By using our website, you represent that you are not under 13 years of age.  If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that your child under the age of 13 may have provided personal information through our website, please contact us by the means identified below.

Changes to Privacy Policy

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will update the “Last Updated” date in the title.

By using our website, you consent to the collection, storage, use, and sharing of information in the manner we describe.  By submitting your phone number, email address, or other contact means to us, you agree to be contacted by Avenue5 or a third-party vendor with whom we have a relationship to provide you with information and notices relating to the subject matter of your inquiry or request, the property where you reside, and rentals, products, and services that we believe may be of interest to you.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by either:

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information.  To verify that you have authorized someone to make a request on your behalf, we may require you to, among other things, provide evidence of signed permission for the authorized agent to act on your behalf, verify your identity directly to us, and/or directly confirm to us that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.  You may make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.  We may verify your identity by various methods, including using available data to confirm current or past residency at a property we manage or asking you to complete a verification form.  The verification form may ask you for basic information such as your name, address, and telephone number, and ask for responses to questions to which only you would know the answers.

Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us.  

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor's identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format

We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within forty-five days after its receipt.  If we require more time, we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account.  If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.

Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request's receipt.  The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable.  

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded.  If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Personal Information Sales

We do not sell the personal information of consumers.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights.  Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not:

• Deny you goods or services.

• Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.

• Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.

• Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

However, we may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels.  Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your personal information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program's material aspects.  Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
