Privacy Policy and Terms of Use

Last Updated: May 15, 2026


Introduction

This website (the "Site") offers information, products, and services related to real estate (the "Services") provided by Stephanie King, a licensed real estate professional affiliated with eXp Realty. We operate this website and may use third-party contractors to support the delivery of the Services and the Site ("Service Providers").

If you are a visitor to this Site, this Privacy Policy and Terms of Use applies to you and describes the policies and practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information in connection with your use of the Site. We act as the controller of your personal data, and our Service Providers assist us in providing the Services solely in their capacities as service providers and data processors.

This Privacy Policy and Terms of Use does not apply to any websites, applications, or other online services that do not link to this Policy, including other services provided by us or by our Service Providers. If you have questions about our use of your personal information, please contact us using the information in Section 13 below.


1. Texas Real Estate Compliance & Fair Housing

As a real estate professional operating within the State of Texas, we strictly adhere to the regulatory mandates of the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) and broader consumer protection standards:

  • TREC Consumer Disclosures: Texas law requires all real estate license holders to provide the Information About Brokerage Services (IABS) and the Consumer Protection Notice to prospective consumers. Links to these completed regulatory documents are prominently maintained on our digital storefront/homepage footer in compliance with TREC rules.
  • Equal Housing Opportunity: We are fully committed to the letter and spirit of the United States policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the Nation. We encourage and support an affirmative advertising and marketing program in which there are no barriers to obtaining housing because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin.


2. Personal Information We Collect

We collect information from you in various ways when you access or use the Site or otherwise interact with the Services. This information may include:

Information You Provide to Us

Contact information that you provide, such as your first and last name, email address, home address, and phone number; feedback or correspondence, such as information you provide when you contact us with questions, feedback, or other correspondence; marketing information, such as your preferences and/or consents for receiving communications about our activities, events, and publications, and details about how you engage with such communications; and other information which you may provide voluntarily or that is necessary in connection with your interactions with us through the Site or Services.

Information We Obtain from Third Parties

  • Social Media Information: We may maintain pages on social media platforms, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and other third-party platforms. When you visit or interact with these pages, the platform providers' privacy policies will apply to your interactions and their collection, use, and processing of your personal information. You or the platforms may provide us with information through the platform, and we will treat such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
  • Data Enrichment Sources: We may obtain additional information about you from third-party data providers, including property records and public records databases, demographic and behavioral data providers, social media profile information (where publicly available), and other commercially available data sources. This information helps us provide more relevant services and communications.
  • Other Sources: We may obtain your personal information from other third parties, such as third-party analytics services, marketing partners, publicly-available sources, and data providers.


CRM and Communication Data

If you communicate with us via email, text message, or other electronic means, or if we use customer relationship management ("CRM") tools to manage our interactions with you, we may collect and process: email message content, headers, metadata, and attachments; text message content and metadata; communication timestamps, read receipts, and delivery status; contact information and communication history; and notes and records relating to our interactions with you.

Our CRM services may synchronize with email accounts to facilitate communication management. When email synchronization is enabled, information from emails exchanged with you may be processed and stored, including email content, sender and recipient information, timestamps, and attachments. This data is used to provide better service, maintain accurate records, and facilitate follow-up communications.


Automatic Data Collection

We and our Service Providers may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your interaction over time with our Services, our communications, and other online services, such as: 

  • Device Data: Your computer's or mobile device's operating system type and version, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, device type, IP address, unique identifiers, language settings, mobile device carrier, and general location information such as city, state, or geographic area.
  • Online Activity Data: Pages or screens you viewed, how long you spent on a page or screen, browsing history, navigation paths between pages or screens, information about your activity on a page or screen, access times, and duration of access, and whether you have opened our marketing emails or clicked links within them.

We use the following tools for automatic data collection: cookies (text files that websites store on a visitor's device to uniquely identify the visitor's browser or to store information or settings in the browser); local storage technologies (like HTML5, that provide cookie-equivalent functionality but can store larger amounts of data); and web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, which are used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked).

We may use your personal information for the following purposes:

  • To provide and operate our Services and our Site: We use your information to provide, operate, and improve our Services and Site; communicate with you about our Services and business including by sending announcements, updates, security alerts, and support and administrative messages; and provide support and respond to requests, questions, and feedback.
  • To manage our relationship with you: We use CRM tools and services to maintain records of our communications, track your preferences and interests, and provide personalized service. This may include analyzing your interactions with us to better understand your needs and preferences.
  • To send you follow-up communications: If you have opted into receiving follow-up communications, we (or our Service Providers) may from time to time send you follow-up communications as permitted by law, including through phone, email, and SMS text messages, some of which may use artificial or prerecorded voices. You may opt out of receiving such communications as set forth in Section 7 below.

  • To create anonymous data: We may create anonymous data from your personal information and other individuals whose personal information we collect.

4. Use of Artificial Intelligence

We use artificial intelligence ("AI") and machine learning technologies to provide and improve our Services. This section describes how AI is used in connection with the Site and Services.

AI-Generated Content

We may use AI technologies to generate, assist with, or enhance content displayed on the Site or provided through our Services, including: property descriptions and listing information; blog posts, articles, and other written content; social media posts and marketing materials; email communications and newsletters; and advertising copy and promotional content.

AI-generated content is created using large language models and other machine learning systems. While we review AI-generated content for accuracy and appropriateness, such content may contain errors, omissions, or inaccuracies. You should not rely solely on AI-generated content for important decisions, including real estate transactions, without independent verification.


AI-Assisted Communications

We may use AI to assist with communications, including: drafting and suggesting responses to inquiries; analyzing communication patterns to improve service; providing automated responses to common questions; and prioritizing and categorizing incoming communications.

When AI assists with communications, a human may review and approve messages before they are sent, though some automated responses may be sent without individual human review.


AI-Based Analysis and Recommendations

We may use AI to analyze data and provide recommendations, including: identifying potential opportunities based on your stated preferences and behavior; suggesting properties that may match your criteria; analyzing market trends and conditions; and optimizing the timing and content of communications.

These AI-based analyses and recommendations are provided for informational purposes and should not be considered professional advice. Important decisions should be made in consultation with qualified professionals.


Your Rights Regarding AI

You have the right to: request information about whether AI was used to generate specific content; request human review of significant decisions that were made with AI assistance; opt out of certain AI-powered features where technically feasible; and provide feedback on AI-generated content or recommendations. To exercise these rights or ask questions about our use of AI, please contact us using the information in Section 13.

  • Internal Team, Partners, and Affiliates: Our brokerage affiliates, employees, real estate team members, and independent contractors, specifically to facilitate your requested transactions and interactions with us.
  • Our Service Providers: Companies and individuals that provide services on our behalf or to help us provide the Services, the Site, or our business (such as hosting, information technology, CRM services, email delivery, AI and machine learning services, and website analytics services).
  • Professional Advisors: We may disclose your personal information to professional advisors, such as lawyers, bankers, auditors, and insurers, where necessary in the course of the professional services that they render to us.
  • For Compliance, Fraud Prevention, and Safety: We may share your personal information for the compliance, fraud prevention, and safety purposes described above.
  • Business Transfers: We may sell, transfer, or otherwise share some or all of our business or assets, including your personal information, in connection with a business transaction (or potential business transaction) such as a team restructuring, merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. In such a case, we will make reasonable efforts to require the recipient to honor this Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.

Important Privacy Pledge: Other than as set forth herein, data will not be shared with third parties for marketing or promotional purposes. We will never disclose or share any personal consumer information—including phone numbers and SMS mobile consent—with third parties for their independent marketing or promotional purposes.


6. Advertising and Tracking Technologies

We may use advertising and tracking technologies to deliver relevant advertising and measure the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.


Third-Party Advertising Platforms

We may share certain information with third-party advertising platforms, including Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Google, and other advertising networks, to: deliver targeted advertisements to you based on your interests and interactions with our Site; measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns; create audiences of similar users for advertising purposes ("lookalike audiences"); and track conversions and attribute advertising performance.

When you interact with our Site, third-party advertising platforms may collect information through cookies, pixels, and similar technologies. This information may include your device identifiers, browsing behavior, and interactions with our advertisements.


Tracking Pixels and Conversion Events

We use tracking pixels (also known as web beacons or clear GIFs) on our Site to track when you view or interact with our content, measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, attribute conversions, and analyze user behavior on our Site. These tracking technologies may transmit information to third-party platforms, including information about the pages you visit, actions you take on our Site, and information about your device.


Interest-Based Advertising

We participate in interest-based advertising, which means that you may see our advertisements on third-party websites and platforms based on your browsing behavior and inferred interests. Third-party advertising platforms use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your online activities across different websites and services to provide you with more relevant advertisements.


7. Privacy Choices and Opt-Outs

You have the following choices regarding our collection and use of your personal information:


Online Tracking Opt-Out

The retention period for personal information depends on the context and our relationship with you: contact information and communication records are generally retained for the duration of our professional relationship and a reasonable follow-up period; CRM data is retained for as long as you maintain an active relationship with us, unless longer retention is dictated by law or real estate record-keeping mandates; transactional records are securely retained to comply with strict state regulatory requirements. When personal information is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymize it.


10. Third Party Services

The Site and Services may contain links to websites and other online services operated by third parties (such as mortgage calculators, local utility links, or community resource pages). In addition, our content may be integrated into web pages or online services that are not associated with us.
