For those with queries or concerns, this document aims to clarify your privacy rights and choices. If our policies and practices do not align with your viewpoint, we advise against using our Services. If questions or concerns arise, we encourage you to reach out to us at hr@owneroperatorland.com.

Circumstances and Parties Involved in Information Sharing: The sharing of personal information may occur under specific conditions and with particular types of third parties.
Information Security Measures: We employ both organizational and technical measures to safeguard your personal information. However, no method of internet transmission or storage technology can guarantee absolute security. Thus, we cannot ensure the total prevention of unauthorized access or misuse of your information by third parties.
Your Privacy Rights: Your geographic location might grant you certain rights concerning your personal information under applicable privacy laws.
Exercising Your Rights: The most straightforward method to exercise your rights is by submitting a data subject access request or contacting us directly. We will address any requests in accordance with the relevant data protection laws.
For a comprehensive understanding of our practices concerning the collection of information, we recommend reviewing our privacy policy in its entirety.
We gather personal information that you willingly submit when showing interest in our offerings or Services, participating in our platform’s activities, or reaching out to us.
Information You Provide: The nature of the personal information we collect is influenced by your interactions with us and our Services, the choices you make, and the products and features you engage with. This collected personal information may encompass:
Sensitive Data: We do not handle sensitive personal data.
The personal information you supply should be accurate, complete, and up-to-date, and you must inform us of any modifications to this personal information.
Our Services automatically capture specific details upon your visit, utilization, or navigation. This automatically collected information might not directly disclose your identity but could include details on the device and usage, such as IP address, browser and device features, operating system, language settings, referrer URLs, device name, location, and other technical information. This information is crucial for our Services’ security, operation, internal analytics, and reporting.
Like other entities, we collect data via cookies and similar technologies.
Your personal data is processed for a variety of purposes based on your interactions with our Services, including:
Third-party vendors, consultants, and service providers. For the execution of services on our behalf or directly for us, which necessitates access to such data, we may disclose your information to third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents (“third parties”). We can distribute personal data with the following types of third parties:
Furthermore, your personal information may be shared under these circumstances:
Cookies and similar tracking mechanisms (such as web beacons and pixels) may be employed by us to collect or store information. The following Cookie Notice details the usage of these technologies and your options regarding certain cookies.
Cookies are small files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are essential for recognizing your device on subsequent visits. Cookies enable features like remembering login details and preferences, enhancing website performance, and delivering targeted content.
Here’s why we use cookies:
Most web browsers allow you to disable cookies via their help menu, but this may affect how the website functions.
We will retain your information until it is no longer necessary for the purposes stated in this privacy notice or as mandated by law.
Your personal information will be retained only for the time needed to satisfy the objectives mentioned in this privacy notice or as a longer retention span is legally required or allowed (e.g., for tax, accounting, or other legal obligations).
We will either delete or anonymize your personal information or if neither is feasible (for example, because your personal information is stored in backup systems), we will securely store your personal information and prevent any further processing until deletion can be achieved, once there’s no longer a valid business reason to process it.
To safeguard the personal information we handle, we’ve instituted suitable technical and organizational security measures. Nevertheless, no method of electronic transmission or storage of information is entirely secure, so we cannot assure absolute protection against the potential breaches of our security measures by hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized entities. We urge you to use a secure environment to access our Services, as the transmission of personal information is at your own risk.
We do not intentionally gather or market information from individuals under 18 years of age.
We avoid deliberately requesting or marketing to children under 18 years of age. By utilizing the Services, you confirm that you are over 18 or the parent/guardian of such a minor and consent to the minor’s use of the Services. Should we discover that we have collected personal information from users under 18 without verification of parental consent, we will deactivate the account and endeavor to promptly erase such information from our records. For concerns about data collected from minors under 18, please get in touch with us at hr@owneroperatorland.com.
At any time, you may review, alter, or terminate your account.
If you wish to withdraw your consent for us to process your personal information, you may do so at any time. You can do so by contacting us using the contact information provided in the “CONTACT INFORMATION FOR INQUIRIES ABOUT THIS POLICY” section below.
It’s important to note, however, that withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. Moreover, if the law allows, processing based on legitimate grounds other than consent will not be affected.
If you prefer not to accept cookies or wish to disable cookies, you can adjust your browser settings accordingly. However, doing so may impact certain functionalities or services of our Services.
For inquiries or comments about your privacy rights, feel free to email us at hr@owneroperatorland.com.
Many web browsers, as well as some mobile operating systems and apps, include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can enable to indicate your privacy preference not to have your online browsing activities monitored and collected. Currently, no uniform standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been established. Therefore, we do not monitor or respond to DNT browser signals or any similar mechanism that automatically communicates your choice against online tracking. Should a standard for online tracking be established that we must adhere to in the future, we will inform you about that practice in an updated version of this privacy notice.
