The following policy statement summarizes Alnoor's protection and use of any personal information provided by visitors to the Alnoor site.

Information Collected by Alnoor:

Alnoor collects user information from several areas of the Alnoor site including the 'New Member Registration' area (where Alnoor collects each user's name, street address, telephone number, email address, and self-selected primary role in real estate); products; business services; the adding and editing of property listings; the adding and editing of Professional Profiles; email forms; and any surveys or contests that Alnoor may sponsor. Alnoor may track the IP address of a user's computer or place a "cookie" in the browser files of a user's computer. This is required by Alnoor services to provide automated features.

Use of Information Collected:

Collected information helps Alnoor better understand its users' needs in order to improve its product and service offerings. Email addresses are used to communicate with members through AlnoorNews (a monthly email news summary), Promotional emails, Partner emails and for site administration purposes. Users may be deleted from AlnoorNews, Promotional email and Partner email lists at their request. Personal information may be used to contact users for the purpose of research, product development, marketing, or customer service, if the user has opted to receive such communication. User search activity is collected and analyzed and may be utilized by Alnoor in the aggregate or in the abstract for a variety of business purposes. This information is not shared with anyone outside of Alnoor. IP address and cookie log data is analyzed to better understand traffic flows and user preferences.

Shared information:

Though Alnoor makes every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have good faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our Web site.

Alnoor shares member information in the following areas on the site: Listing Service, Email Alerts and Professional Directory. When a member enters a sale, wanted or rent listing in the Listing Service, listing contact information is also entered. During this process, the listing submitter is able to view other members' contact information when he adds another contact beside himself to the listing. This contact information is then shared with the users who have property listings that match the buying or leasing criteria. Unless required by law as detailed in this section or a user specifically takes action as discussed in this paragraph, Alnoor does not share individual user search activity information and such activity information remains private to the individual user and to Alnoor. Professional Profile users agree to share their contact information and allow all Alnoor users to view their contact information via the Alnoor Listings .

Alnoor shares information with its partners for the purpose of providing related services in which we deem our users have interest. The use that Alnoor's partners make of customer information will not exceed Alnoor's use of the data.

Alnoor does not rent or lease user information to any third party, except as disclosed here. From time to time, Alnoor may obtain information (such as electronic mail addresses) from third party providers. It is our goal to only contact individuals who we believe may have a legitimate business interest in Alnoor based on their membership or participation in other organizations or web sites, and who have indicated a willingness to be contacted for this purpose. While Alnoor endeavors to work with other sites and companies with a similar respect for user privacy, Alnoor cannot be responsible for the privacy practices of other sites.

Please be aware that in the event Alnoor merges with a third party, or in the event all or substantially all of Alnoor's assets are acquired by a third party, customer information, including personally identifiable information, will be shared and/or transferred to such third party. The information may only be used or shared by such third parties for the primary purpose for which the information was originally collected. If such third parties, or if Alnoor for its own business needs, desire to use the personally identifiable information for another purpose, you will be notified prior to the information being used for a new purpose, and you will have the opportunity to opt out of such new use of your personally identifiable information.
