How is this information shared?
People and businesses use our Marketplace to make listings, connect and share with others. We make this possible by sharing your information in the following ways:
When you make a listing, share and communicate using our Marketplace, you choose the audience who can see what you share. Likewise, when you use our message service, you also choose the people who you message.
Public information is any information that you share with a public audience, as well as information in your public profile or content you share on a Marketplace page or another public forum. Public information is available to anyone on or off our Marketplace and can be seen or accessed through online search engines, APIs and offline media, such as on TV.
In some cases, people and businesses you share and communicate with may download or re-share this content with others on and off our Marketplace. When you comment on another person’s listing or like their content on our Marketplace, your comment will also be public.
Other people may use our Marketplace to share content about you with the audience they choose. For example, people may share a listing you made on the Marketplace or share information about you that you shared with them.
When you use third-party apps, websites or other services that use, or are integrated with, our Marketplace, they may receive information about what you list, post or share. In addition, when you download or use such third-party services, they can access your public profile for you or your business and your listing. Information collected by these apps, websites or integrated services is subject to their own terms and policies.
If the ownership or control of all or part of our Marketplace or their assets changes, we may transfer your information to the new owner.
We work with third-party companies who help us provide and improve our Marketplace or who use advertising or related products, which makes it possible to operate our companies and provide free services to people around the world.
We also share the information with the wider Property Nexus Property Network and its websites
