Privacy Statement
Real Property PH (RPPH) is committed to fully protect your personal data privacy in compliance with Republic Act No. 10173, otherwise known as the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA).
In all instances, we assure you that processing your personal data will strictly follow the provisions of DPA, especially the general data privacy principles of Transparency, Legitimate Purpose, and Proportionality.
RPPH Website Privacy Notice
Our official website is www.realpropertyPH.com
This Privacy Notice is for the RPPH website.
Personal Data Collected
For you to fully access our Site, we collect your name, mobile number, and your email address. This will allow us to directly communicate with you and process all your needs while logged on and browsing RPPH. We collect, store, and process your data and relay it to third parties whenever you choose to inquire or get to know more about the real property in our listings. This will allow real estate owners, sellers, brokers, developers, and other permitted uploaders to directly communicate with you to provide you with responses to your requests.
Further, we will use the information you provide to personalize your experience on our website; administer your account with us; audit the downloading of data from our website; improve the layout and/or content of the pages of our website and customize them for users; identify visitors in our website; carry out research on our users’ demographics; send you information that we think you may find useful or which you have requested from us, including information about our listings and services, provided you have indicated that you have not objected to being contacted for these purposes.
If you choose to provide us with your personal information, you consent to the transfer and storage of that information on our servers. If you prefer not to receive any marketing communications from us, you can opt out at any time by clicking the ‘unsubscribe’ link in any email that we send to you.
Agents, brokers, or clients with log in accounts are allowed to store data, documents or photos in our cloud services for purposes of lead management. By doing so, you hereby consent to access of any personal or sensitive information for the said purpose by RPPH.
Disclosure of Personal Data
Personal data processed by RPPH is not shared with any other party unless such disclosure is allowed under Section 12 or 13 of the DPA.
We may disclose personal information to respond to legal requirements, enforce our policies, respond to claims that a listing or other content violates our policies. Such information will be disclosed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. We may also share your personal information with:
1. Third parties to provide joint content and services (like registration, transactions, and customer support), to help detect and prevent potentially illegal acts and violations of our policies, and to guide decisions about their products, services, and communications. These third parties will use this information to send you marketing communications only if you have requested their services.
2. Service providers under contract who help with our business operations (such as fraud investigations, bill collection, affiliate and rewards programs and customer support).
3. Other third parties to whom you explicitly ask us to send your information (or about whom you are otherwise explicitly notified and consent to when using a specific service).
4. Law enforcement agencies, other governmental agencies or third parties in response to a request for information relating to a criminal investigation, alleged illegal activity or any other activity that may expose us, you or any other RPPH user to legal liability. The personal information we disclose may include your User ID and User ID history, name, address, telephone/mobile number, email address, fraud complaints and listing history or anything else that we deem relevant.
5. Other agencies in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, piracy, or other unlawful activity, as we in our sole discretion believe necessary or appropriate, either under confidentiality agreement or as required by law. In such circumstances, we may disclose name, street address, city, postcode, country, phone number and email address.
6. Other business entities, should we plan to merge with or be acquired by that business entity. (Should such a combination occur, we will require that the new combined entity follows this privacy policy with respect to your personal information. If your personal information will be used contrary to this policy, you will receive prior notice to obtain your consent.)
Risks Involved
Risk refers to the potential of an incident to result in harm or danger to a data subject or organization. Risks may lead to the unauthorized collection, use, disclosure, or access to personal data. It includes risks involving the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of personal data or the risk that processing will violate the general data privacy principles and the rights of data subjects.
RPPH ensures that adequate physical, technical, and organizational security measures are in place to protect personal information’s confidentiality, integrity, and availability. However, this does not guarantee absolute protection against certain risks involving the processing of personal data, such as when systems are exposed to targeted cyberattacks, malware, ransomware, and computer viruses or when manual records are accessed without authority.
Data Protection and Security Measures
We safeguard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your personal information by maintaining a combination of organizational, physical, and technical security measures based on generally accepted data privacy and information security standards.
Changes to the Privacy Notice
RPPH reserves the right to update or revise this privacy notice at any time and will provide a new privacy notice whenever there are substantial changes. Prior versions of the privacy notice shall be retained and shall be provided to data subjects upon request.
